Here, we report the draft genome sequence of Xanthomonas campestris LMG 8031, for which nearly no genetic information is available, despite its good xanthan-producing properties. We performed an Illumina-based sequencing approach of LMG 8031. The genome revealed a 5.0-Mb chromosome having 4,434 coding sequences and a G+C content of 65%.

ABSTRACT: Soya burger is one of the meat replacers with low cholesterol content and saturated fats. Regarding the gums application in food systems, the effect of adding xanthan (0,0.4, 0.6%) and caboxymethylcellulose gums (0,0.4,0.6%) on water holding capacity (WHC), cooking loss, shrinkage and sensory evaluation of soya burger have been investigated. It was found that the samples with xanthan ...

Background & Aim:The main aim of this study was stabilizing D. Sophia beverage and reduce its sedimentation rate. Experimental: Xanthan and Carboxy methyl cellulose gums have been used in three levels (0.05, .01 and .02 gr/lit) and mixture of Guar-xanthan and carboxymethyl cellulose (each .1 g/l) and extracted dried gum from D. Sophia in (1, 2 an...

Polysaccharide-polysaccharide interactions are attractive in the food, polymer and pharmaceutical systems because they may impart novel or improved functional properties to products and reduce costs. In this work, the rheological interaction of sage seed gum (SSG) as a novel hydrocolloid with xanthan gum (XG) was studied in the dilute region. The intrinsic viscosity of the XG-SSG mixture at fiv...

Purpose: Venlafaxine hydrochloride sustained release formulation increases patient compliance by reducing frequency of administration and it also reduces side effects like nausea and vomiting. Hence the objective of present investigation was to develop triple layer sustained release tablets of venlafaxine HCl using xanthan gum or polyethylene oxide. Methods: The venlafaxine HCl 150 mg sustained...

Amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) was used to analyze the genetic diversity of 14 strains of Xanthomonas arboricola pv. pruni and seven strains of X. axonopodis pv. phaseoli, which are used in xanthan production studies. Relationships identified by the AFLP profiles were assessed for xanthan production capacity, geographical location and host plant. Strains were isolated from 10 dif...

The convenience and appeal of battered or breaded products have resulted in a sales increase of 100% since 1980. Because of the rapid growth of the Asian-American population and increasing consumption of rice and rice products, rice flour is a logical alternative for wheat flour in traditional batter formulation. The effects of ingredients used in rice flour-based batters on adhesion characteri...

Treating dense non-aqueous phase liquids (DNAPLs) embedded in low permeability zones (LPZs) is a particularly challenging issue for injection-based remedial treatments. Our objective was to improve the sweeping efficiency of permanganate (MnO4(-)) into LPZs to treat high concentrations of TCE. This was accomplished by conducting transport experiments that quantified the penetration of various p...

Studies were conducted to evaluate the effects of soy protein concentrate (SPC) and Xanthan gum (X) on physical properties of surimi prepared from Silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) using various amount of soy protein concentrate (0, 5 and 10%) and xanthan gum (0, 0.25 and 0.5%) in fish paste during 3 months of frozen storage at -18ºC. Results obtained from folding test showed that the g...
