Carbohydrates are associated with a plethora of important biological p rocesses and have been implicated in the onset and progress of many le thal diseases. They have attracted a great deal of recent research int erest from both synthetic chemists and glycobiologists, and have been identified as novel targets of therapeutic importance. This book, aime d at synthetic and medicinal chemists, introduces both undergraduates and research students to the chemistry and biology of carbohydrates. T he text investigates methods for synthesizing carbohydrates in a syste matic and logical manner and...

From the nano-world of rusty proteins and magnetic compasses in bacter ia to the macroscopic structures of oyster shells, corals, ivory, bone and enamel, biology has evolved a new type of chemistry that brings t ogether the synthesis and construction of hard and soft matter for the design of functionalized inorganic-organic materials. The process tha t gives rise to these small and large inorganic-based structures of li fe is called biomineralization. This book looks at the chemical princi ples and concepts of biomineralization and their application in the ne w field of biomimetic materials...
