Polysaccharides are one of the largest classes of naturally occurring substances.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               They are found in every form of life where they exhibit complex structures and                                                                                  are associated with a wide range of biological functions.  Their study is       important in order to understand their structures, popoerties and biological    functions.  These goals can be achieved by the characterization of              conformational, crystalline and morphological structural features of these      substances.                                                                                                                                                     Dr. Sarko will use diffraction analysis, primarily X-rated and electron         diffraction in this project.  These methods will be complemented by computer-   based model analysis.  The purpose for this is both to increase the reliability                                                                                 of structural analysis and to make prediction of structure possible.  The       modeling techniques to be used will involve the methods of molecular and quantum                                                                                                                                                                mechanics and molecular dynamics.
