5. Conclusion
In conclusion, quality control of polysaccharides is a challenge because of its
complexity. The rapid, sensitive and selective methods for quanlitative and quantitative
analysis of polysaccharides are still the research interest. The relationship between chemical
characteristics and the biological activities of polysaccharides will also intensively attracte
wide attention of pharmaceutical and biochemical analysts.
