Xanthan exopolysaccharide: Acid-base reactivity related to structure and conformation. A model for understanding the rea...
Bacterial cells and bacterial exopolysaccharides differ strongly in their respective colloidal and polymeric habits. This suggests different reactivities toward metals and protons, although recent studies point to the similarity of such substrates in terms of site density and metal complexation strength. The aim of this paper is to investigate the ...
