Editorial Reviews

Review

"…the third edition of this well-established textbook can be recommended unreservedly for a wide readership." (Angewandte Chemie International Edition, February 2008)

"…a completely revised 3rd edition… expanded to include new information on combinatorial synthesis of carbohydrates and carbohydrate biodiversity." (Civil Engineering, August 2007)

"...certainly merits a place on the shelves of carbohydrate chemistry students and will surely prove to be a useful laboratory resource for many."  (ChemBioChem, October 2007)

From the Back Cover

Carbohydrates are important storage molecules, constituents of nucleic acids and biological recognition markers. Synthetic carbohydrates are important food additives, building blocks for polymers and have also been used as drugs.
Concise yet complete, this is a succinct introduction to the topic, covering both basic chemistry as well as such advanced topics as high-throughput analytics and glycomics -- in one handy volume. This improved and expanded 3rd edition features all-new material on combinatorial synthesis of carbohydrates and carbohydrate biodiversity, and each chapter now contains study questions for self-learning and classroom teaching.
From the contents:
* Introduction to Carbohydrates
* Structure of Saccharides
* Protecting Groups for Carbohydrates
* O-Glycoside Synthesis
* Modifications and Functionalizations of the Sugar Ring
* Glycoconjugates - Structure and Biosynthesis
* Combinatorial Synthesis of Carbohydrates
* Glycobiology and Glycomics
* Purification and Analysis of Carbohydrates
* The Literature of Carbohydrate Chemistry
Didactically written by an experienced lecturer and graduate student advisor, the text is backed by practical examples and many study questions tailored to students' needs.
