Biosynthesis, metabolism and physiological functions of red algal saccharides: A cytochemical and biochemical approach

Several aspects of the biosynthesis, metabolism and physiological functions of red algal saccharides were studied using biochemical and ultrastructural cytochemical techniques. In cytochemical studies, gold conjugated monoclonal anti-carrageenans, cellobiohydrolase, and an agarase were used to localize carrageenans,...
