The research activities of the Institute of Chemistry of the

saccharides. The main fields of interest may be classified into the following directions:[1]

  • Synthesis and structure of biologically important mono- and oligosaccharides and their derivatives
  • Structure and functional properties of polysaccharides, their derivatives, and conjugates with other polymers
  • Structure, function, and mechanism of action of glycanases
  • Development of physicochemical methods for structural analysis of carbohydrates
  • Gene engineering and nutritional and biologically active proteins
  • Glycobiotechnology
  • Ecology, taxonomy, and phylogenesis of yeasts and yeasts-like fungi
  • Development of technologies for isolation of natural compounds and preparation of saccharides and their derivatives for commercial purposes
