Bioactive Polysaccharides offers a comprehensive review of the structures and bioactivities of bioactive polysaccharides isolated from traditional herbs, fungi and seaweeds. It describes and discusses in detail specific topics based on the authors’ rich experience: extraction technologies, practical techniques required for purification and fractionation, strategies and skills for elucidating the fine structures, in-vitro and in-vivo protocols and methodologies for evaluation the specific bioactivities such including immune-modulating activities, anti-cancer activities, anti-oxidant activities, and others. This unique book also discusses partial structure-functionality (bioactivities) relationships based on conformational studies. This comprehensive work can be used as a handbook to explore potential applications in foods, pharmaceuticals and nutraceutical areas for commercial interests. Serves as a comprehensive review on extraction technologies and as a practical guide for purification and fractionation of bioactive polysaccharidesBrings step-by-step strategies for elucidation the fine structures and molecular characterizations of bioactive polysaccharidesIncludes detailed experimental design and methodologies for investigation bioactivities using both in-vitro and in-vivo protocolsClarifies how to extract, purify and fractionate bioactive polysaccharides, besides exploring health benefits of bioactive polysaccharidesUseful as a guide to explore the commercial potentials of bioactive polysaccharides as pharmaceuticals, medicine and functional foods
