title: Cn microspheres as surrogate membranes in glycosidase-catalysed hydrolysis of glycolipids.
abstract: Glycosidase catalysed hydrolysis of glycolipids non-covalently attached to C(n) microspheres proceeds to completion for appropriate glycolipid-microsphere combinations in contrast with hydrolysis of covalently immobilised analogues which in all cases studied stops significantly short of complete hydrolysis.
