This book brings much-needed clarity to the complex topic of glycolipids and streamlines the rather confusing terminology used for glycolipids. It also provides a wealth of modern data on their composition, structure and properties, biosynthetic pathways, methods of isolation and identification, antifungal activity, and mechanisms of action UR - http://148.231.10.114:2048/login?url=http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/book/9780124200692 ER -
