Carbon-13 Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy of Polysaccharides
TL;DR: In this paper, the carbon-13 NMR spectra of polysaccharides with mixed linkages have been examined and a series of α-and β-shifts have been determined for mono-O -methylglucoses and mono- O -methylmannoses to aid in the assignments of 13 C signals of oligosaccharides and poly-scharides consisting of glucose and mannose respectively.

Sporothrix schenckii and sporotrichosis
TL;DR: The extracutaneous form and the atypical forms are a challenge to a newly developed serological test, introduced as an auxiliary tool for the diagnosis of unusual clinical forms of sporotrichosis.

TL;DR: The present data suggest that the cryptococcal β-glucosylceramide is a fungal antigen that plays a role on the cell wall synthesis and yeast budding and that antibodies raised against this component are inhibitory in vitro.

TL;DR: Gene sequencing has revealed the following species in the S. schenckii complex, which has largely been known as the etiological agent of sporotrichosis, which is an acute or chronic subcutaneous mycosis of humans and other mammals.

TL;DR: Comparative genomic data suggest a unique ecological shift in the Sporothrix lineage from plant-association to mammalian parasitism, which contributes to the understanding of how environmental interactions may shape fungal virulence.

Colorimetric Method for Determination of Sugars and Related Substances
TL;DR: In this article, a method was developed to determine submicro amounts of sugars and related substances using a phenol-sulfuric acid reaction, which is useful for the determination of the composition of polysaccharides and their methyl derivatives.

Assay of inorganic phosphate, total phosphate and phosphatase
TL;DR: The method is about seven times as sensitive as the Fiske–SubbaRow procedure and involves less pipetting, but it is not very satisfactory for determining inorganic phosphate if labile phosphate esters are present in large excess.

Mass spectrometry of partially methylated alditol acetates
TL;DR: The mass spectra of a number of partially methylated alditol acetates, derived from methyl ethers of pentoses, hexoses, and 6-deoxyhexoses by reduction and acetylation, have been determined as mentioned in this paper.
