How rarely is it--more rarely than when, in the midst of the broad Atlantic, vessel meets vessel--that man can ask his heart, "What cheer V and receive for answer, "Alls well." When Julian Ludlow retired to his chamber that night--when the door was closed, and, by the kindly but officious care of Mr. Westwoods valet, he was hurried to bed more rapidly than he desired--he lay awake for upwards of an hour, notwithstanding the exhaustion of illness, and the unusual fatigue. The cry rose up within him--" What cheer?" But the answer never was "Alls well." At one time, it was "Breakers a-head " and at others, the same voice spoke of dangers all around. Every one has felt how different is the aspect of the same facts and circumstances at each varying hour of the day; how differently we look upon our fate and future in the merry morning, in the sunny noon, and in the dull, silent night; and there left alone, with the dim watch-lamp winking in the chimney, almost all that was bright and cheering in the events of that day passed away from Julians eyes like unreal pageants; and nothing but the dark, and the coarse, and the heavy remained. Sometimes he could hardly believe it real; that he had spoken as he had; that Mary had so answered him; that their almost insane love had been breathed to each other; that their hearts had found voice in sounds beyond recal. It seemed a dream--a vision, which could have no truth in it; and yet it came back and back upon him with an awful sense of all its consequences. Was not the love itself rash, mad, hopeless % Had not the avowal of it been wrong, base, ungrateful? "What would Mr. Westwood think--he who had loaded him with kindness--he who had fostered, with such tenderness, his youth, promoted...

A practical bench-side reference for carbohydrate chemistry Methods in Carbohydrate Chemistry: Lipopolysaccharides, Separation and Analysis, Glycosylated Polymers (Volume 9) presents proven techniques for working with carbohydrates in the lab. Topic experts contribute insights and protocols for membrane isolation and purification, glycoprotein synthesis, and carbohydrate immobilization, with detailed guidance on chromatographic, chemical, enzymatic, and physical methods of separation and analysis. Helpful flow charts provide easy bench-side reference, while proven methods allow for predictable, repeatable results. Anyone who encounters carbohydrates in the lab will find value in this clear, practical reference.

Methods in Carbohydrate Chemistry, Volume VIII: General Methods describes the principles and mode of operation of general methods for the analysis and structural characterization of carbohydrates. This book is organized into two sections encompassing 50 chapters. The first section highlights the methods on automated chromatographic techniques; enzymic and other methods for structural analysis of polysaccharides. This section also explores the application of 13C NMR spectroscopy to carbohydrate chemistry. The second section describes the synthesis of deoxy and branched-chain sugars, 1,2-transglycosides, de-N- and de-O-sulfation, and de-N-acetylation of polysaccharides. This book is an invaluable source for organic and analytical chemists, as well as for carbohydrate scientists and researchers.
