Coupling of gamma-globulin to microcrytstalline cellulose by periodate oxidation
Journal of Immunological Methods
|January 1, 1979
Abstract:
Anti-rabbit IgG sheep gamma-globulins were covalently coupled to periodate oxidized microcrystalline cellulose using the Schiff reaction. Optimal conditions (sodium m-periodate concentration and gamma-globulin amount) were studied measuring the ability of this solid-phase antibody to bind glucose oxidase-labeled rabbit IgG.

Vicinal Diols via Reductive Coupling of Aldehydes or Ketones: Pinacol Coupling Overview
Wilhelm Rudolph Fittig discovered the pinacol coupling reaction in 1859. It is a radical dimerization reaction and involves the reductive coupling of aldehydes or ketones in the presence of hydrocarbon solvent to yield vicinal diols.
Phase II Reactions: Glucuronidation
Glucuronidation, a pivotal phase II biotransformation process, involves the coupling of glucuronic acid to a drug or xenobiotic. Given its widespread occurrence and critical role in drug metabolism, it's considered the most crucial phase II reaction. It enhances the water solubility of substances, aiding their expulsion from the body. The driving force behind these reactions is a group of enzymes known as UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs). UGTs facilitate the transfer of a glucuronic acid...
