  1. 1. Characterisation of the Substituent Distribution in Starch and Cellulose Derivatives

    Author : Sara Richardson; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Chemistry; Analytisk kemi; Cationic amylopectin; Hydroxypropyl amylopectin; Ethyl hydroxyethyl cellulose; Substituent distribution; Enzymic degradation; HPAEC-PAD; MALDI-TOF-MS; ESI-MS; Kemi; Analytical chemistry;

    Abstract : Starch and cellulose can be chemically modified to produce derivatives with specific properties. Knowledge of correlations between the modification reaction, substituent distribution and properties is important in order to design modification processes so as to produce derivatives with the desired properties.

  2. 2. Enzyme Hydrolysis of Cellulose Derivatives. Active Site Studies and Polymer Characterisation

    Author : Herje Schagerlöf; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Kemi; Chemistry; Humicola insolens; Trichoderma reesei; Bacillus agaradhaerens; Mass spectrometry; Substituent distribution; Characterisation; Endoglucanases; Cellulose derivatives;

    Abstract : Soluble derivatives of cellulose have become increasingly important in industrial products e.g. in pharmaceutical applications and in technical dispersions. The polymer characteristics of modified celluloses are to a high degree determined by the substituent distribution along the polymeric backbone. READ MORE

  3. 3. New Methods for Enzyme Hydrolysis, Analysis, and Characterization of Modified Cellulose

    Author : Claes Melander; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Analytisk kemi; Analytical chemistry; Methyl Cellulose; Reducing End; Micro Immobilised Enzyme Reactor; Mass Spectrometry; Enzyme Hydrolysis; Modified Cellulose; Substituent Distribution;

    Abstract : Cellulose can be chemically modified to produce derivatives with specific properties. Knowledge of correlations between the modification reaction, substituent distribution, origin of cellulose and properties are importaint in order to design processess so as to produce derivatives with the desired properties.

  4. 4. New Mass Spectrometric Methods for Structure Analysis of Carboxymethyl Cellulose

    Author : Jonas Enebro; Sigbritt Karlsson; Dane Momcilovic; Ulf Germgård; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; carboxymethyl cellulose; substituent distribution; rheology; enzyme hydrolysis; cellulase; permethylation; liquid chromatography; MALDI; ESI; mass spectrometry; Polymer chemistry; Polymerkemi;

    Abstract : Carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) is a cellulose derivative, made from cellulose by introduction of carboxymethyl groups along the molecules. The properties of CMC are affected by several parameters where the molar mass and molar mass distribution, degree of substitution (DS) and the distribution pattern along, and between, the cellulose molecules are the most prominent.

  5. 5. Investigation of Modified Cellulose and Starch via Hydrolysis and Mass Spectrometry

    Author : Arieh Cohen; Avdelningen för arbets- och miljömedicin; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ESI-MS; Polysaccharides; Hydrolysis; Cellulases; Starch Hydrolases; Enzymatic Degradation; Enzymes; Substituent Distribution; Modified Cellulose; Mass Spectrometry; Modified Starch; Analytical chemistry; Analytisk kemi; HPAEC-PAD;

    Abstract : Starches and celluloses can be chemically modified in order to affect their physiochemical properties. Modification of these carbohydrate polymers entails derivatising their free hydroxyl groups with functional groups. READ MORE
