Starch and other polysaccharides

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingBook chapterResearchpeer-review

Abstract

Polysaccharides constitute one of the major groups of biological macromolecules and they include some of the most abundant macromolecules in nature. In this chapter instrumental considerations when analyzing polysaccharides with flow field-flow fractionation (flow FFF) are briefly discussed. Furthermore, an overview of characterized properties is given with special attention to multi angle light scattering. Included is an extensive review of literature on applications regarding flow FFF and polysaccharides.
