Properties
Description
Fucoidan-ciprofloxacin conjugate (ciprofloxacin-fucoidan) integrates the ciprofloxacin moiety with fucoidan, a sulfated polysaccharide derived from brown seaweed, resulting in a compound of experimental interest.
Glycan Structure
The glycan structure of fucoidan primarily consists of α-(1→3)- or α-(1→4)-linked L-fucose residues with sulfate groups at C-2/C-4 positions, often interspersed with branching points and occasional substitutions by other monosaccharides like galactose or xylose.
