The Complex Carbohydrate Research Center (CCRC) was founded at the University of Georgia (UGA) to answer the national need for a center dedicated to advancing knowledge of the structures and functions of oligo- and polysacchrides. The center employs about 100 scientists and staff in a multidisciplinary setting with state-of-the-art facilities and equipment. Researchers at the CCRC investigate the chemistry and biology of complex carbohydrates of biological importance using advanced analytical techniques, including mass spectrometry; recombinant genetics; nuclear magnetic resonanace spectroscopy; computer modeling; tissue culture; gas, liquid, and lectin affinity chromatography; enzymology; immunology; artificial neural networks; chemical synthesis; end electron microscopy.
