The cell wall of Candida species yeasts is an essential feature that provides structural protection and support. There are three major polysaccharide components: mannan, β-(1,3;1,6)-glucan, and chitin, which are divided into inner and outer layers, with chitin and β-glucan making up the inner layer and cell wall proteins making up the outer layer decorated with N- and O-linked glycosylation known as mannans. C. albicans is a common fungus that widely exists in the skin, mouth, digestive tract, and reproductive tract of the body. C. albicans polysaccharide is a long-chain polymer composed of multiple sugar molecules connected by glycosidic bonds, which participates in the formation and stability of the Candida cell wall. The polysaccharide serves as a signature molecule of Candida, which is considered an important antigen for Candida infection.
CD BioGlyco offers various types of C. albicans polysaccharide production services, including mannan, β-(1,3)-glucan, and chitin. The specific services involved are listed below.
CD BioGlyco offers regular culture and maintenance for C. albicans strains, including culture medium preparation, strain passage, and quality testing, which ensure the health status and purity of strains and provide a reliable source of strains.
CD BioGlyco optimizes the yield and quality of C. albicans polysaccharides by systematically adjusting factors.
CD BioGlyco offers mature modification of polysaccharides to obtain derivatives with specific functions by chemical synthesis or enzymatic modification, which may change the structure and properties of C. albicans polysaccharides.
CD BioGlyco develops extraction and purification processes suitable for C. albicans polysaccharides based on the required polysaccharide type and purity requirements, including steps such as cell disruption, solvent extraction, chromatography, and ultrafiltration to obtain high-purity polysaccharide products.
CD BioGlyco uses advanced analytical techniques (MS, NMR, HPLC) to characterize and analyze the structure of C. albicans polysaccharides, thereby obtaining sugar component analysis, chain length distribution, and other related information.
CD BioGlyco offers mass production for different types of C. albicans polysaccharides and ensures a stable supply of polysaccharide products.
