Microwave-assisted desulfation of sulfated polysaccharides

Several sulfated polysaccharides were desulfated by heating their pyridinium salts dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide in a microwave oven. The procedure was applied to different products like a λ-carrageenan, a partially cyclized μ/ν-carrageenan, an agar-like product like corallinan, a fucoidan and a c...
