Abstract
Diffractometer D19 at the ILL is being used to locate water around hya luronate, a polysaccharide present in the extracellular matrix of mamm alian connective tissue and the capsule of some bacteria. Data to 3 An gstrom resolution have been collected from hydrated fibres where H2O h as been replaced by D2O.
