The alkyl curdlan sulfate with the degree of alkylation (DOA) of 0.03 (1 didodecyldimethyl group/12 sugar residues with 36 hydroxyl or sulfate groups) showed potent anti-HIV activity in a 50% effective concentration (EC50) as low as 0.87 μg/ml (standard curdlan sulfate EC50 = 0.3 μg/ml), and the activity decreased with increasing DOA. A DOA higher than 0.1 (1 didodecyldimethyl group/three sugar residues with nine hydro xyl or sulfate groups) gave no anti-HIV activity. Although both curdlan sulfate and alkyl curdlan sulfates did not inhibited infection of MDCK cells by influenza viruses, the alkyl curdlan sulfate-coated}, school = {北見工業大学}, title = {Development of Antiviral Biomaterials by Naturally Occurring Polysaccharides}, year = {} }
