Comparative heterogeneity, molecular weights and viscosities of xanthans of different pyruvate and acetate content

Introduction: The bacterial exopolysaccharide xanthan is a well-known hydrocolloid, with a high viscosity deriving from its large molecular weight and volume. Materials and methods: Four different xanthans deriving from Xanthomanas campestris -two with similar pyruvate and acetate contents and two...
