Polymer-Based Chemistry of Carbohydrate-Derived Fulvic Acid and Its Comparative Effect with Chelating Agents on Root Dentin Microhardness
Abstract: The interaction between the polymer science and the endodontic biomaterials field has increased recently while considering the search for chelating agents. CHD-FA (Carbohydrate-Derived Fulvic Acid), a naturally occurring low-molecular-weight polymeric organic acid, has potential chelating and antimicrobial and antioxidant activities. This investigation examines the polymeric chemistry of CHD-FA and compares the effect of CHD-FA with other chelating agents, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), and citric acid, on root dentin microhardness. A total …

Progress in the Chemistry of C-Glycosylation in Carbohydrates
Abstract: Glycosylation is an intricate biochemical process where a glycosyl donor and a glycosyl acceptor are combined to form a glycoside. This process involves the creation of new stereogenic centers at the anomeric site of the glycosyl donor, leading to the formation of a diverse array of products. By establishing glycosidic linkages, the synthesis of complex polysaccharides becomes possible, opening doors to the creation of analogues for further exploration of their …
