Carbohydrate Polymers

Journal Title：Carbohydrate Polymers

Carbohydrate Polymers covers the study and exploitation of polymers of monosaccharides which have current or potential application in areas such as bioenergy, bioplastics, biomaterials, nanotechnology, biorefining, drug delivery, food, chemistry, packaging , paper, pharmaceuticals, medicine, oil recovery, textiles and wood.

The role of the well-characterized carbohydrate polymer must be the major proportion of the work reported, not peripheral. At least one named carbohydrate polymer must be cited and be the main focus of the title of the paper, and of the paper itself. Research must be innovative and advance scientific knowledge.

Where a polysaccharide is obtained from a supplier, essential structural information which will affect its behavior in the subsequent work should be given. For example, molecular size/viscosity information, mannuronate/glucoronate ration for alginates, degree of esterification for pectin, degree of deacetylation for chitosan. Editors are unlikely to send papers for formal review with a statement such as "sodium alginate was purchased from XXX Inc." unless additional information is supplied. To be acceptable, the paper must include some characterization of the polysaccharide (if not already known) in addition to the application studied. Purity and monosaccharide composition are essential; some molecular size and linkage information is highly desirable.

碳水化合物聚合物涵盖单糖聚合物的研究和开发，这些聚合物目前或可能应用于生物能源、生物塑料、生物材料、纳米技术、生物精炼、药物输送、食品、化学、包装、纸张、制药、医学、采油、纺织品和木材等领域。

已充分表征的碳水化合物聚合物的作用必须是所报告工作的主要部分，而不是次要部分。必须引用至少一种命名的碳水化合物聚合物，并且该聚合物是论文标题和论文本身的重点。研究必须具有创新性并推动科学知识的发展。

如果从供应商处获得多糖，则应提供将影响其在后续工作中的行为的基本结构信息。例如，分子大小/粘度信息、藻酸盐的甘露糖醛酸/葡萄糖醛酸比例、果胶的酯化程度、壳聚糖的脱乙酰度。除非提供更多信息，否则编辑不太可能将带有“海藻酸钠购自 XXX 公司”之类声明的论文送交正式审阅。要想被接受，论文必须包括多糖的一些特性（如果尚不清楚）以及所研究的应用。纯度和单糖组成是必不可少的；一些分子大小和连接信息是非常理想的。
