Microwave-assisted alkaline modification of red seaweed galactans

The production of 3,6-anhydrogalactose units from galactose 6-sulfated residues by alkaline treatment is an important reaction undergone by many red seaweed galactans, used commercially to enhance their gelation behavior, and thus their industrial value. A novel technique utilizing microwave irradia...
