The influence of the primary and secondary xanthan structure on the enzymatic hydrolysis of the xanthan backbone

open access: yesCarbohydrate Polymers, 2013
Differently modified xanthans, varying in degree of acetylation and/or pyruvylation were incubated with the experimental cellulase mixture C1-G1 from Myceliophthora thermophila C1. The ionic strength and/or temperature of the xanthan solutions were varied, to obtain different xanthan conformations.

Xanthan–galactomannan interactions as related to xanthan conformations

International Journal of Biological Macromolecules, 1998
The influence of xanthan conformation on the physicochemical behaviour of their mixtures with galactomannan from Schizolobium parahybae mannose:galactose ratio (M/G=3), was studied by viscoelastic measurements, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and chiroptical (circular dichroism) methods. The results suggested a more effective interaction of the

The influence of the six constituent xanthan repeating units on the order–disorder transition of xanthan

open access: yesCarbohydrate Polymers, 2014
Xanthans occurring in different levels of disordered conformation were enzymatically hydrolyzed to their six pentamer repeating units (RUs). The RUs present in the enzyme digests were analyzed using LC-MS. As only disordered xanthan segments are degraded by cellulases, the influence of the six different RUs on the transitional behavior of xanthan could

Plasma enhanced modification of xanthan and its use in chitosan/xanthan hydrogels

open access: yesPolymer Engineering & Science, 2013
This study reports the design and construction of a fluidized bed/non‐equilibrium atmospheric‐pressure‐plasma reactor. The mechanical design of the reactor was devised to modify chemically and physically the surface of different powders. The basis for developing the design and construction of the reaction system were the non‐equilibrium atmospheric ...

Role of conformation and acetylation of xanthan on xanthan-guar interaction

Carbohydrate Polymers, 1992
Abstract The synergistic effect obtained by mixing xanthan and guar solutions were examined by low shear viscosity measurements in relation to the temperature. Native and deacetylated xanthan samples were used in mixtures in which the total polymer concentrations were 1 g/litre and 0·5 g/litre.

Cryogelation of xanthan

Food Hydrocolloids, 2003
Abstract Xanthan solutions have gel-like properties, including the ability to hold particles in suspension, but the network structure breaks down readily, allowing the solutions to flow freely. These ‘weak gel’ properties are attributed to tenuous association of ordered chains, and are enhanced by cations, particularly Ca2+.

Multistranded Helix in Xanthan Polysaccharide

Science, 1977
The extracellular polysaccharide xanthan is shown by electron microscopy to be an unbranched, probably double-stranded fiber 4 nanometers wide and 2 to 10 micrometers long when native. Denaturation yields a single strand only 2 nanometers wide and 0.3 to 1.8 micrometers long.
