Ebook: Polysaccharides I: Structure, Characterization and Use

From the reviews:

"This book contains five chapters, which are well written and should be of use to both nonexpert and expert readers. … The chapters are fairly up-to-date with references to papers published in 2004, and the abbreviations and terminology within are clearly defined making these chapters quite readable for researchers interested in undertaking their first studies on these important polysaccharides. … In summary, this book should be useful to scientists and engineers working with polysaccharides … ." (Robert J. Linhardt, Journal of the American Chemical Society, Vol. 128 (18), 2006)
