Abstract
Detailed structural information of sulfated polysaccharides such as glycosaminoglycans and algal polysaccharides is required for the investigation of their biological and physical properties. Desulfation is a basic tool for the structural investigation of the polysaccharides themselves, as well as an essential method for molecular bases of their functions. This review describes progress in the methods for desulfation of sulfated carbohydrates.
