Dextran dextrinase and dextran of Gluconobacter oxydans
Journal of Industrial Microbiology & Biotechnology, 2005 Certain strains of Gluconobacter oxydans have been known since the 1940s to produce the enzyme dextran dextrinase (DDase; EC2.4.1.2)-a transglucosidase converting maltodextrins into (oligo)dextran. The enzyme catalyses the transfer of an alpha1,4 linked glucosyl unit from a donor to an acceptor molecule, forming an alpha1,6 linkage: consecutive ...

Mass transfer coefficients in cross-flow ultrafiltration [PDF]
, 1989 Usually, in concentration polarization models, the mass transfer coefficient is an unknown parameter. Also, its variation with changing experimental circumstances is in question.

Characterizing anomalous diffusion in crowded polymer solutions and gels over five decades in time with variable-lengthscale fluorescence correlation spectroscopy [PDF]
, 2016 The diffusion of macromolecules in cells and in complex fluids is often found to deviate from simple Fickian diffusion. One explanation offered for this behavior is that molecular crowding renders diffusion anomalous, where the mean-squared displacement ...

Nematic-Isotropic Spinodal Decomposition Kinetics of Rod-like Viruses [PDF]
, 2006 We investigate spinodal decomposition kinetics of an initially nematic dispersion of rod-like viruses (fd virus). Quench experiments are performed from a flow-stabilized homogeneous nematic state at high shear rate into the two-phase isotropic-nematic ...
