Abstract: Agar is a major cell wall carbohydrate of red macroalgae (Rhodophyta). Sugars derived from agar, such as agarooligosaccharides (AOSs), neoagarooligosaccharides (NAOSs), neoagarobiose (NAB), and 3,6-anhydro-l-galactose (L-AHG), possess various physiological activities. These agar-derived sugars can be… read more here.
