In the pharmaceutical and food industry, alginate is used in aqueous solutions and excipients as thickener, gelling agent, coagulant and encapsulant. This biopolymer is very important, with many key industrial applications, ...

The behavior of bovine serum albumin (BSA) in water is scarcely studied, and the thermodynamic properties arising from the experimental measurements have not been reported. Intrinsic viscosity measurements are very useful ...

The chia (Salvia hispanica) generates an abundant and viscous mucilage, this is purified with periods of heating-cooling and finally precipitated with ethanol, obtaining chia gum, CG. In this work the intrinsic viscosity ...

The study of biopolymers as dextran in aqueous solution, is effectively determined by intrinsic viscosity [η] measurements at different temperatures. Molecular weight (Mv) and hydrodynamic properties can be calculated from ...

This study involves the influence of ionic strength in intrinsic viscosity of xanthan gum. The best concentration of monovalent and bivalent cations chloride salts is evaluated. The salt concentration is 0.001 M for ...

Commercial Tara gum from three sources was purified by precipitation with isopropanol and evaluated on the structural, physicochemical and rheological properties. FT–IR and NMR techniques were used to determine the molecule ...

The intrinsic viscosity measurements used to calculate the Mark-Houwink (M-H) parameters are generally performed for different molecular weights at a constant temperature, with the standard value of this temperature being ...

The electrokinetic of bovine serum albumin (BSA) in water is scarcely studied, and the experimental measurements are narrowly reported. Intrinsic viscosity data are very useful in assessing the interaction between the ...

The viscometric and refractometric behaviour of poly (benzyl methacrylate) (PBM) in isobutyl methyl ketone (IMK) as a function of the temperature was studied. The viscometric relations in IMK and toluene by membrane osmometry ...
