L-Triguluronic acid is a linear polysaccharide copolymer made of three L-guluronic acid (G) units, used in the formation of Alginate. Alginate, an unbranched polyanionic polysaccharide, is valuable for researching anti-fungal agent delivery carriers. Its properties, including non-toxicity, biodegradability, biocompatibility, mucoadhesive nature, and non-immunogenicity, make it suitable for drug delivery systems, particularly in treating fungal infections.
