Of the three main types of algae, spirulina is said to be the easiest to digest and absorb, because its cell walls are composed
of mucopolysaccharides rather than indigestible cellulose.
Cells were genetically modified to produce human β - glucoronidase, another enzyme involved in the breakdown
of mucopolysaccharides.
Because of their inability to make αduronidase, children with Hurler's syndrome can not break down
mucopolysaccharides, which are produced when connective tissue degrades.
A pollinium is a waxy mass of pollen grains held together by the glue - like alkaloid viscin, containing both cellulosic strands and
mucopolysaccharides.
The first is
mucopolysaccharides, which will work to boost the skin's natural process of protection, repair and renewal.
NOTE: Bovine tracheal cartilage (BTC) can be found on the market by various names: Antitumor angiogenesis factor, bovine
mucopolysaccharide - cartilage complex, Catrix ®, Catrix ® - S, collagen bovine, cow cartilage, glycosaminoglycan polysulfuric acid complex, metastatin, mucopolysaccharide - cartilage complex, processed bovine cartilage, psoriacin, psoriacin - T, Rumalon ®, VitaCarte ®, Dr Rons and Vital Proteins.
In Lyme disease biofilms bacteria produce and cover themselves in a layer of slime composed of
mucopolysaccharides.
... Analysis of Kombucha under these conditions indicated a total absence of polysaccharides or
mucopolysaccharides in solution... It was, however, curious that after two days the neutralized Kombucha became somewhat gelatinous... This may indicate the presence of the building blocks responsible for the formation of the mucopolysaccharides of the polysaccharide colony from the Kombucha solution.
Dried Sea Cucumber contains glucosamine, chondroitin and
mucopolysaccharide.
Green Lipped Mussel Extract contains a rich, complex blend of natural proteins, minerals and
mucopolysaccharides.
The disease causes an accumulation of
mucopolysaccharides, or glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) due to the impaired functioning of lysosomal enzymes that break down GAGs which help build bones, cartilage, skin, tendons, corneas and the fluid responsible for lubricating joints.
A high concentration of
mucopolysaccharides, which are as important in nutrition as amino acids, essential fatty acids, vitamins and minerals, comprise the edible shellfish.
The mucopolysaccharides, which aid in bone formation, as well as that of the skin, cornea and cartilage, don't perform their function properly because of a lack of lysosomal enzymes.
