The most widely used, affordable, and biodegradable substance is cellulose, which is generated in large quantities from various agricultural wastes, as indicated in Fig.2.The primary component of plants and natural fibers like linen and cotton is cellulose, a polymer of glucose. The 1,4-glycosidi...
Starch is a well characterized polymer of glucose that is the principal storage form of carbohydrate in higher plants and some algae, including green algaedoi:US5935842 AA method for the high yield, agricultural production of Enteromorpha clathrata involving repeated steps of supplying brackish or ...
A polysaccharide polymer is disclosed which is a better viscosifier of water than xanthan gum. The polysaccharide polymer and its non-acetylated form, are comprised of glucose and mannose moieties in a ratio of about 2:1. The invention also discloses Xanthomonas mutants which produce the polysacc...

For example, cellulose is a natural polymer with each single molecule comprising hundreds of glucose monomers, while polyethylene is made of repeating units based on ethylene monomers. Polymers encompass a large class of compounds comprising both natural and synthetic materials with a wide variety of ...

For example, timed control release of insulin has been achieved with “smart” pH-sensitive hydrogels. This phenomenon is known as on-demand release of insulin in response to increased levels of glucose. Thermosensitive hydrogels, such as poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) and poly(N-vinyl caprolactam), ...
This phenomenon is known as on-demand release of insulin in response to increased levels of glucose. Thermosensitive hydrogels, such as poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) and poly(N-vinyl caprolactam), have also been engineered for controlled drug delivery, where hydrophobic interactions respond to small ...
To determine substrate-induced respiration (SIR, μg C-CO2g−1h−1), 0.5 ml of glucose solution at a rate giving 2.5 mg of glucose per 1 g of soil, was additionally added to the samples. Then the vials were closed with rubber stoppers and incubated for 2–3 h in a thermostat at...
