Hydration Properties of Chemically Modified Phytoglycogen Nanoparticles
Phytoglycogen (PG) is a naturally occurring, soft, compact glucose-polysaccharide nanoparticle with an underlying dendritic chain architecture. Not only is it desirable for applications in personal care, nutrition and biomedicine, but it also provides a model system for fundamental studies of soft …

Sweet corn respiration and carbohydrate metabolism under controlled atmosphere storage
… during the treatments. However, the changes in phytoglycogen and starch during storage were not significant, except for a slight increase of phytoglycogen content during storage in 'Sugar Buns'.

The necessity of debranching in starch biosynthesis
… step through the analysis of the production of phytoglycogen and other novel polysaccharides in strains of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii lacking isoamylase activity. We demonstrate that granule-bound starch synthase I (GBSS I) is necessary to synthesize the minute amounts of novel insoluble …

Molecular dynamics simulations and neural network solutions for applications in biophysics
… twitchers, the structure and dynamics of a phytoglycogen nanoparticle, and nanoparticle mobility through the slit-well microfluidic device are studied using MD. In each of these applications, varying modelling resolutions are chosen, reflecting the trade-off between modelling accuracy and …

INTERACTION AND PROTECTION OF ANTIMICROBIAL COMPOUNDS WITH CARBOHYDRATE-BASED COLLOIDAL SYSTEMS FOR IMPROVED FOOD SAFETY
… in non-emulsion (aqueous) and emulsion systems. Phytoglycogen octenyl succinate (PG-OS), a dendrimer-like amphiphilic material was used as the model carbohydrate nanoparticle and nisin was used as the model antimicrobial peptide. Equilibrium dialysis experiments showed that PG-OS with different …
