Binding affinity properties of dendritic glycosides based on a beta-cyclodextrin core toward guest molecules and concanavalin A

Research has been conducted on the tetradeca-antennated C-6-branched mannopyranosyl and glucopyrannosyl cyclomalto-heptaose derivatives. The inclusion behavior and concanavalin A binding properties of these derivatives have been investigated via the isothermal titration microcalorimetry and enzyme-linked lectin assay and the results are presented.
