Anionic polysaccharide

Winzor and coworkers have employed measurements of the Donnan distribution of small ions in dialysis equilibrium [14] to reinforce earlier evidence of charge-screening effects in polysaccharide anions [164,165]. These researchers used the absorption optical system of a Beckman XL-1 ultracentrifuge to monitor the distribution of ions in polysaccharide solutions... 

Monagum. [Mukti-Rem] Carboxy-methyl polysaccharide anionic thickener for use in printing azoid, vat and disperse colors. 

Heat-induced gelation of muscle food proteins is influenced by various factors, including the addition of non-protein polymer ingredients. Of the various non-protein polymer ingredients, polysaccharides are ones that can affect the thermal transition temperatures of meat proteins [37]. The effects of three ionic types of polysaccharides (anionic polysaccharide K-carrageenan, KCG neutral polysaccharide locust bean... 

The reaction will proceed in aqueous suspension, but the ether formed becomes swellable in cold water if DS becomes >0.1. Therefore, the process is mostly run in aqueous organic solvents such as methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, acetone. After the reaction, the unswollen and undissolved c. is filtered off, washed and dried. Usually DS is 0.2-0.6. Carboxymethylation enhances die hydrophilic character of - starch polysaccharides (- anionic starch). 

The significance of phenoxy anions is well recognized in the isolation of kraft and other water-insoluble technical lignins by acid precipitation. The ioniza tion of phenoHc hydroxyl groups coupled with the reduction of molecular size renders native lignin soluble in the aqueous pulping solution, thus enabling its separation from the polysaccharide components of wood. 

Xanthan gum [11138-66-2] is an anionic heteropolysaccharide produced by several species of bacteria in the genus Aanthomonas A. campestris NRRL B-1459 produces the biopolymer with the most desirable physical properties and is used for commercial production of xanthan gum (see Gums). This strain was identified in the 1950s as part of a program to develop microbial polysaccharides derived from fermentations utilizing com sugar (333,334). The primary... 

Molecular Interactions. Various polysaccharides readily associate with other substances, including bile acids and cholesterol, proteins, small organic molecules, inorganic salts, and ions. Anionic polysaccharides form salts and chelate complexes with cations some neutral polysaccharides form complexes with inorganic salts and some interactions are stmcture specific. Starch amylose and the linear branches of amylopectin form inclusion complexes with several classes of polar molecules, including fatty acids, glycerides, alcohols, esters, ketones, and iodine/iodide. The absorbed molecule occupies the cavity of the amylose helix, which has the capacity to expand somewhat to accommodate larger molecules. The starch—Hpid complex is important in food systems. Whether similar inclusion complexes can form with any of the dietary fiber components is not known. 

Lipoteichoic acids (from gram-positive bacteria) [56411-57-5J. Extracted by hot phenol/water from disrupted cells. Nucleic acids that were also extracted were removed by treatment with nucleases. Nucleic resistant acids, proteins, polysaccharides and teichoic acids were separated from lipoteichoic acids by anion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-Sephacel or by hydrophobic interaction on octyl-Sepharose [Fischer et al. Ear J Biochem 133 523 1983]. 

This group includes a set of anionic polysaccharides secreted by unrelated bacteria. The common theme, however, is that their main chains have the same tetrasaccharide repeat. Although (high acyl) native gellan (42) and (deacylated) gellan (40,41) are linear polymers, welan (43) is a branched polymer in which a monosaccharide side chain is regularly attached to each repeat. Other members of this family, such as S-657 and rhamsan, are also branched, like welan."0... 

In most cases the microspheres were insoluble. The polysaccharides might be partially cross-linked via amido groups formed by the carboxyl groups of the polyanion and the restored free amino group of chitosan. The susceptibility to enzymatic hydrolysis by lysozyme was poor, mainly because lysozyme, a strongly cationic protein, can be inactivated by anionic polysaccharides [207]. 

In some cases, the anionic POs adsorbed on chitin have similar antigenic determinants, but the plants belonging to different families - and even members of the same family - could have polysaccharide-specific POs with different structures. Thus, the majority of investigated species had anionic chitin-specific peroxidises, and these isoforms from potato Solcmaceae) and horseradish Brassicaceae) formed lines of precipitation with antibodies to wheat chitin-bound PO but not to anionic isoPO (Maksimov et al., 2000). However, protein extracts from several plants of Brassicaceae, Cucurhitaceae and Fahaceae formed precipitate with both the chitin-specific and anionic PO of wheat (Fig. 3). It was foimd that the greatest homology showed in plants and formed precipitation lines with the anionic PO of wheat (Tab. 2).
