The present disclosure discusses methods for producing stereoisomerically enriched carbohydrate-based surfactants. In particular, methods of the invention include producing stereoisomerically enriched hydrophobic portion of the carbohydrate-based surfactants.

Methods for producing stereoisomerically enriched carbohydrate-based surfactants

The present invention provides carbohydrate-based surfactants and methods for producing the same. Methods for producing carbohydrate-based surfactants include using a glycosylation promoter to link a carbohydrate or its derivative to a hydrophobic compound.

Carbohydrate-based surfactants

Synthesis of carbohydrate-based surfactants

An implantable electrode and electrode system for contacting living biological material that includes an electrode assembly including at least a portion of the electrode, adapted to contact the living biological material at an electrode/tissue interface, exhibiting conduction that is substantially limited to electron or electron vacancy conduction. The implantable electrode is manufactured by coupling an electrode to a distal end of a conductor, and forming at least one surface of the electrode with a material that conducts electricity in a manner that is substantially limited to electron or electron vacancy conduction when the at least one surface is in contact with the living matter.
