Abstract

A method is described for the preparation β-glycosylamide monomers from reducing carbohydrates. The glycosylamide monomers were copolymerized with acrylamide to formhigh molecular weight, water soluble polymers. The chemical and enzymatic stability of the β-N-glycosidic linkage was investigated. In addition, the glycopolymers were characterized by their interactions with lectins.
