Magnetic macroporous bead cellulose functionalised with recombinant hyaluronan lyase for controllable hyaluronan fragmentation

Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a component of the extracellular matrix with important potential for biotechnological and pharmaceutical applications. However, the immunological effects of HA are strongly molecular weight-dependent; therefore, production of HA for therapeutic purposes requires control over the molecular weight of the product, as well as mild reaction conditions and elimination of bioactive impurities. Here, we produced and characterised...
