CD BioGlyco provides personalized animal GSL extraction services and comprehensive purification and product identification services. Our professional team includes several experienced glycochemists and biologists who are eager to help you in your glycobiology research and accelerate your research process.
GSLs are glycolipids widely distributed on the surface of animal cell membranes and have important biological roles in regulating cell recognition, adhesion, proliferation, and apoptosis. In general, GSLs can be divided into several groups: neutral GSLs and negatively charged GSLs. The information carried by the structure of GSLs is important for biological processes, and it also acts as signaling molecules and participates in many intracellular signaling processes, as well as regulating cell growth, proliferation, differentiation, and other physiological processes. In addition, it is also involved in the transport of membrane proteins, regulation of ion channels, and other functions. GSLs are important biomolecules in animals and they have significant biological functions in many aspects, such as the regulation of cell membrane structure and many other biological processes. GSLs are also widely present in humans, especially abundant in brain tissue. Therefore, abnormalities in the metabolism of GSLs may affect the function of the nervous system. For example, some neurodegenerative diseases are associated with abnormal metabolism of GSLs.

CD BioGlyco has mastered a variety of conventional natural product extraction techniques to aid in the synthesis of natural glycolipid compounds. The services we provide include the following:
We have experienced researchers in glycolipid extraction. Our extraction service provides you with better substrate selectivity and product activity.
We provide the most sophisticated liquid phase extraction system for animal GSL extraction service. For example, mixtures of chloroform and methanol have had wide use as lipid extractants, we combine this method with product identification and analysis service to give customers a one-stop service experience.
Our extraction service utilizes a fluid such as supercritical CO2 as a solvent to treat tissues containing GSL to complete the process of extracting GSL.
