Glass-forming property of hydroxyectoine is the cause of its superior function as a desiccation protectant [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014 We were able to demonstrate that hydroxyectoine, in contrast to ectoine, is a good glass-forming compound. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and spin label electron spin resonance (ESR) studies of dry ectoine and hydroxyectoine have shown that the ...
