Rheological properties of cellulose/ionic liquid solutions: from dilute to concentrated states.

abstract：:The convergent solid phase synthesis of C-linked analogues of antifreeze glycoprotein (AFGP) has been achieved. In this approach, three to six carbohydrate residues are simultaneously coupled to a resin-bound polypeptide. Glycopeptides ranging from 1.6 to 3.0 kDa are easily prepared in 26-44% yield demonstrating the u...
