Unravelling Rheology and Structural Properties of Polysaccharides from Porphyridium Purpureum After Alkali Pre-Treatment. [PDF]
Macromol BiosciPorphyridium purpureum polysaccharides are established hydrocolloids among several microalgal biomolecules, however they only exhibit higher viscosity without gelling capacity. Therefore, this study chose to employ alkali pretreatment to Porphyridium purpureum to investigate whether controlled chemical modification could alter the molecular structure ...
