• Alginate Blocks and Block Polysaccharides: A Review 

      Solberg, Amalie; Draget, Kurt Ingar; Schatz, Christophe; Christensen, Bjørn E. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Alginates consist of distinct blocks with different physical properties. This short review focuses on research carried out in Trondheim related to the early discovery of the block structure, their isolation, their different ...
    • Alginate-b-dextran block-copolymers: preparation and solution properties 

      Krogh, Marianne Christiansen von (Master thesis, 2021)
      Alginat produseres i rød- og brunalger og utgjør 40% av algenes tørrvekt. Biopolymeren finnes i algenes intracellulære rom hvor det fungerer som et strukturelement, tilnærmet cellulose i landplanter. Rød- og brunalger ...
    • Click chemistry for block polysaccharides with dihydrazide and dioxyamine linkers - A review 

      Solberg, Amalie; Vikøren Mo, Ingrid; Omtvedt, Line Aa.; Strand, Berit L.; Aachmann, Finn L.; Schatz, Christophe; Christensen, Bjørn E. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Engineered block polysaccharides is a relatively new class of biomacromolecules consisting of chemical assembly of separate block structures at the chain termini. In contrast to conventional, laterally substituted ...
    • Hydrazide Conjugated Oligoguluronates 

      Solberg, Amalie (Master thesis, 2017)
      Advances reported in the field of amphiphilic block copolymers in recent years has demonstrated that predetermined structures can be formed from the self-organizing of amphiphilic molecules at interfaces or in solutions. ...
    • Preparation of Activated Chitosan and Synthesis of a Chitosan-Dextran Diblock 

      Pedersen, Jesper Evjen (Master thesis, 2020)
      Blokk-kopolymerer (BKPer) er hybride strukturer bestående av kovalent bundne polymer-segmenter. Et overveid valg av bestående blokker tillater laging av nye materialer med skreddersydde egenskaper. Av spesiell interesse ...
    • Self-assembling alginate-based diblock polymers 

      Solberg, Amalie (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2022:49, Doctoral thesis, 2022)
      Polysaccharides are an abundant, diverse, and naturally occurring class of biopolymers. Alginate is a marine polysaccharide from brown algae and some bacterial species. Industrially, alginates are widely applied for the ...
    • Structural and functional aspects of mannuronic acid–specific PL6 alginate lyase from the human gut microbe Bacteroides cellulosilyticus 

      Stender, E.G.P.; Andersen, C.D.; Fredslund, F.; Holck, J.; Solberg, Amalie; Teze, D.; Peters, G.H.J.; Christensen, Bjørn E.; Aachmann, Finn Lillelund; Welner, D.H.; Svensson, B. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Alginate is a linear polysaccharide from brown algae consisting of 1,4-linked β-D-mannuronic acid (M) and α-L-guluronic acid (G) arranged in M, G, and mixed MG blocks. Alginate was assumed to be indigestible in humans, but ...
    • Terminally modified alginates  as universal tool for its bi-functionalization 

      Brativnyk, Anastasia (Master thesis, 2020)
      Alginat er en viktig polysakkarid med et bredt bruksåmråde innen industri og forskning på grunn av dets egne egenskaper. Disse egenskapene inkluderer evne til å lage gel, øke viskositet og løse opp et gelnettverk. Det har ...
    • β-1,3-glucan and β-1,3-glucan-based diblock polysaccharides: Preparation, characterization, and solution behavior 

      Kristoffersen, Hilde (Master thesis, 2021)
      𝛽-glukaner er en av de mest rapporterte biologisk aktive polysakkaridene og anses å ha et stort potensial i ulike industrier. Et vannløselig preparat av 𝛽-1,3-glukan med forgreninger koblet via 1,6-bindinger (SBG), ...
