"Polysaccharides are biologically produced (bio-based) materials that have a unique combination of functional properties and environmentally friendly features. Polysaccharides are also polymers and their long chain structures, as in man-made polymers, provide good mechanical properties for applications such as fibers, films, adhesives, melt processable plastics, thickeners, rheology modifiers, hydrogels, drug delivery agents, emulsifiers, etc. They are renewable materials, produced from other biological compounds, and generally are non-toxic and biodegradable. These features make polysaccharide materials a natural fit for sustainable development. Commercially available products include starch, cellulose and its derivatives (such as cellulose acetate, carboxymethyl cellulose, and methyl cellulose), sodium alginate, xanthan gum, dextran, carrageenan, and hyaluronic acid. Research continues to bring us new materials with improved performance and lower costs. This website is dedicated to promoting the commercial development of polysaccharide materials.

Explore this website and learn more about the chemical and physical properties of polysaccharides, their applications and markets, and commercial sources. Featured below are highlights of recent articles about exciting developments with polysaccharide materials"[1].

"About the Directory ABC Chemistry : Free Full-Text Journals in Chemistry

Accessibility of a great number of online chemistry journals is subjected to a mixed paying policy: the publisher may grant free access to a selected set of volumes (issues) while the admission to the rest of the database may be open just to subscribers or paying visitors. Quite often the information on the availability status is hidden deeply in the publisher's website pages and this complicates finding the free part of content.

The Directory makes this task easier by listing the fully and partly free journals that comply with the following criteria:

* publisher's grading of a journal as peer-reviewed;
* one-year, at least, free full-text content, or extensive free supplements to printed versions of papers;
* chemistry or chemistry-related subject coverage;
* English language of articles (journals in Russian are also listed on a separate page).

We selected the journals based on their free availability to reader, but not on publishers’ strategies, which were different (Open Access Initiative, publisher's promotional strategy, government's funding, etc.) for different journals and publishers"[1].

"Open Access Journal:

We define open access journals as journals that use a funding model that does not charge readers or their institutions for access. From the BOAI definition [1] of "open access" we take the right of users to "read, download, copy, distribute, print, search, or link to the full texts of these articles" as mandatory for a journal to be included in the directory"[1].

"This site provides free on-line tools, which we hope you will find helpful in performing computational chemistry, ADME/T and chemoinformatics tasks including the building and visualisation of chemical structures, the calculation of molecular properties and the analysis of relationships between chemical structure and properties. All these tools are developed, provided and supported by the VCCLAB partners.

Please feel free to browse our site and take advantage of the various on-line cheminformatics services provided. However, the calculation algorithms are running on remote servers, communicating via the Internet, so we are unable to control the speed of access to these services. An overview of on-line WWW resources for Phys-Prop calculations is also available"[1].
