چکیده

We study the transition to supramolecular ordering of a simple biostructural polysaccharide in water, and the structural properties of the ordered phase. Instabilities in aggregation and transport properties are observed across the transition. The possible role of the stereodynamics of the biomolecule-water system. as a whole is discussed in terms of the notion of connectivity pathways of hydrogen bonds.
