Development of screening strategies for the identification of paramylon-degrading enzymes
Journal of Industrial Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2019 Abstract Enzymatic degradation of the β-1,3-glucan paramylon could enable the production of bioactive compounds for healthcare and renewable substrates for biofuels. However, few enzymes have been found to degrade paramylon efficiently and their enzymatic mechanisms remain poorly understood.

One-pot synthesis of thermoplastic mixed paramylon esters using trifluoroacetic anhydride [PDF]
Carbohydrate Polymers, 2015 Mixed paramylon esters prepared from paramylon (a storage polysaccharide of Euglena), acetic acid, and a long-chain fatty acid by one-pot synthesis using trifluoroacetic anhydride as a promoter and solvent were shown to have thermoplasticity. Size exclusion chromatography indicated that the mixed paramylon esters had a weight average molecular weight ...

On the life-history and ecology of Hornellia marina gen. et sp. nov., (chloromonadineae), causing green discoloration of the sea and mortality among marine organisms off the Malabar coast [PDF]
, 1954 There are many published accounts dealing with " red ", " yellow " and " pink " discoloration of the sea water, caused by the occurrence in swarms of micro-organisms, particularly members of the Dinophyceae (cf. Hayes and Austin, 1951).
