An analytical ultracentrifuge study on ternary mixtures of konjac glucomannan supplemented with sodium alginate and xanthan gum
نویسندگان
چکیده
Mixed solutions of konjac glucomannan supplemented with xanthan and alginate were studied using the technique of sedimentation velocity in the analytical ultracentrifuge. Interactions – as manifested by changes in the sedimentation coefficient distributions compared to unmixed controls – were observed for ternary mixtures in the presence of alginate. The complexes observed also appeared sensitive to the presence of the ionic concentration of the supporting solvent, but were clearly significant at low ionic strength. 2010 Elsevier Ltd.

Dilute Solution Viscometry Studies on a Therapeutic Mixture of Non-digestible Carbohydrates
Recent work has shown the beneficial effects of a proprietary mixture of three non-digestible carbohydrates: konjac glucomannan, xanthan and alginate and these effects have been linked with a synergistic interaction observable with analytical ultracentrifugation, rheological and NMR measurements. These observations have been supported by fundamental dilute solution viscosity studies. Preparatio...
متن کاملRheological Properties of Mixtures of Spruce Galactoglucomannans and Konjac Glucomannan or Some Other Polysaccharides
Spruce galactoglucomannan is a wood-derived polysaccharide with a modest molar mass that has recently been made available in kg-scale for research and development of value-added products. To promote the application of spruce galactoglucomannans in, for example, food products, it is vital to understand also the rheological behaviour of the mixtures of galactoglucomannans with other polysaccharid...
متن کاملControl of the properties of xanthan/glucomannan mixed gels by varying xanthan fine structure.
The interaction of native xanthan gum, deacetylated xanthan gum and depyruvated xanthan gum with konjac glucomannan has been studied using DSC and controlled stress rheometry. In the absence of electrolyte the DSC cooling curves for native xanthan and deacetylated xanthan showed a single peak and there was a corresponding sharp increase in the storage modulus indicating gel formation. It is app...
متن کاملXanthan and glucomannan mixtures: synergistic interactions and gelation.
The synergistic interaction between xanthan and glucomannan in solution and in the gel phase has been studied by circular dichroism spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry. The study in solution of the polysaccharidic mixture indicates a preferred stoichiometry of the interaction corresponding to a weight fraction of xanthan around 0.55. This finding is in reasonable agreement with t...
متن کاملRheological Differences of Waxy Barley Flour Dispersions Mixed with Various Gums
Rheological properties of waxy barley flour (WBF) dispersions mixed with various gums (carboxyl methyl celluleose, guar gum, gum arabic, konjac gum, locust bean gum, tara gum, and xanthan gum) at different gum concentrations were examined in steady and dynamic shear. WBF-gum mixture samples showed a clear trend of shear-thinning behavior and had a non-Newtonian nature with yield stress. Rheolog...
