Abstract:
Phytoglycogen nanoparticles are highly branched polymers of anhydroglucose units (AGUs) produced as soft, compact nanoparticles by sweet corn. By combining results of dialysis, ellipsometry and gravimetric analysis experiments, we constructed a master plot of the osmotic pressure Π -concentration C data for phytoglycogen nanoparticles that spans the complete range ∼ 0% w/w
