Polysaccharides are abundant organic compounds in nature
generally produced by living organisms. They exhibit a large variety of complex chemical structures
conformations and physiological functions
thus receiving more and more concerns nowadays.Among polysaccharides family
β-1
3-glucans are the most extensively studied because of their inherent
strong helix-forming nature which has never been observed for other polysaccharides.Due to remarkable and unique mechanical
electrical
optical and thermal properties
carbon nanotubes have been one of the most promising nanomaterials.Recent studies have also shown that synthetic oligonucleotides are useful in treatment for various incurable diseases.In addition
how to produce a nanofiber structure for conductive polymers and nanoparticles have attracted much attention during the last decade.In the above three research fields
recent investigations have proved that the unique properties of polysaccharides can be utilized. The present paper makes a review of research progress on polysaccharides
especially β-1
3-glucans
mainly focusing on non-covalent modification of carbon nanotubes
targeting delivery of functional nucleotides
inclusion of conductive polymer
being a polymerization vessel and induction of arrangement of nanoparticles.
