Stereochemistry-dependent self-assembly in synthetic glycolipid/water systems: the aqueous phase structure of 1,3-di-O-dodecyl-2(beta-maltoheptaosyl)glycerol
Article Abstract:
Research was conducted to examine the temperature-concentration dependent phase diagram of an aqueous maltoheptaose-containing lipid, 1,3-di-O-dodecyl-2(beta-maltoheptaosyl)glycerol, Mal7(C12)2. The objective is to derive direct evidence supporting the hypothesis by confirming an H(sub I) and a normal micellar solution in the Mal7(C12)2/water system. Results suggest that a preferred phase of the Mal(sub N)(C12)2 shifts from an H(sub II) to an H(sub I) through an L(sub alpha) phase as N increases.

Fluorescence polarization studies of inclusion complexes between beta-cyclodextrin and 1-Chloronaphthalene in aqueous and aqueous D-glucose solutions
Article Abstract:
A study was conducted relating to research on inclusion complexes formed by cyclodextrins with a guest molecule. The experiment investigated the interactions between a guest molecule, 1-chloronaphthalene, and the beta-cyclodextrin cavity using a fluorescence polarization method and fluorescence spectroscopy. Degree of polarization for the monomer and excimer fluorescence of 1-chloronaphthalene was studied as a function of excitation and observation wavelengths. Experimental results are discussed.

Oligosaccharides as model systems for understanding water-biopolymer interaction: hydrated dynamics of a hyaluronan decamer
Article Abstract:
Research involving a five-nanosecond simulation of a hyaluronan decasaccharide in aqueous solution is presented. It is predicted that, although intramolecular hydrogen-bond interactions exist, they may not be sufficiently persistent to be seen in aqueous solution from temperature changes of proton chemical shifts.
