the effect of bleaching with sodium hypochlorite, as one of the most important parameters in obtaining optimal alpha cellulose pulp from cotton linter was studied. in this respect, unbleached cotton linter pulp was prepared from parchin chemical industry co., bleached by hea sequence in ph=9, 11 and 13; and then its chemical structures properties such as alpha cellulose, degree of polymerizatio...

The Jayme-Wise and diglyme-HCl methods for extracting cellulose from plant material for stable-isotope analysis differ considerably in ease of use, with the latter requiring significantly less time and specialized equipment. However, the diglyme-HCl method leaves a small lignin residue in the crude cellulose that may affect stable-isotope values, whereas alpha-cellulose produced by the Jayme-Wi...

Subcellular fractions from the cotyledon obtained by differential and density gradient centrifugation, and extracts of total proteins from both cotyledon and axial tissues were analyzed by diethylaminoethyl cellulose chromatography, zone electrophoresis, ultracentrifugation, immunodiffusion, and immunoelectrophoresis. Fractionation and characterization of proteins in subcellular organelles of t...

Filter papers used for ordiuar.v q uali tative and q uant itative analyses were treated to obtain data for recomnlencted standards of Cjuality. The papers comprised the produ cts of two domestic and three foreign manufacturers. T ests were made for retention of fine precipitates, t im e of flow of water , ash, and wet bursting strength by m odi fi ed methods developed at the Bureau. Den sity, a...

Isolated 3H-labeled human hemoglobin alpha chains were incubated with unlabeled carbonmonoxyhemoglobin A for 72 h in 0.01 M potassium phosphate, pH 7.0, at 25 degrees C. Following separation of the free alpha chain monomers and Hb A (alpha 2 beta 2) tetramers by electrophoresis on cellulose acetate strips or by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose columns, analysis of radioactivity showed a slow tr...

Corn stalk can be used as an alternative non-wood raw material to produce cellulosic dissolving grade pulp. In this work, the potential of corn stalk in the production of dissolving pulp (alpha-cellulose) was investigated. It was collect ed from a corn stalk farm of Kermanshah, Iran. The sequences of experimental work were: water and acid prehydrolysis at 160˚C for 30min, followed by Kraft pulp...

We report the transfer of cellulose synthesis genes (acsABDC) from the heterotropic alpha proteobacterium, Gluconacetobacter xylinus strain ATCC 53582 to a photosynthetic microbe (Synechococcus leopoliensis strain UTCC 100). These genes were functionally expressed in this cyanobacterium, resulting in the production of non-crystalline cellulose. Although the cellulose lacks the structural integr...

Cellulose fibers were converted into a valuable cellulose derivative, which is easily marketable with additional values. Alkali cellulose and carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) is the most important cellulose derivatives. Alpha-cellulose was furnished as raw material for production of CMC, which is obtained from short cotton fibers, then purified. Alpha-cellulose is available in the international ma...

Cellulose has been directly converted into environmentally friendly alkyl glycoside surfactants in a one pot transformation. By working in ionic liquid media with Amberlyst 15Dry (A15) as catalyst and coupling the rate of cellulose hydrolysis and the rate of glycosidation of the monosaccharides formed with C(4) to C(8) alcohols, it was possible to obtain 82% mass yield of octyl-alpha,beta-gluco...
