MULTI-NUCLEAR SOLID-STATE NMR AS A TOOL TO ASSESS HYDRATION PROPERTIES OF POLYSACCHARIDES - REGIOSELECTIVELY ETHERIFIED CELLULOSES

摘要

Hydration of polysaccharides is an important topic within e.g. plant biology, plant biochemistry but also in food science. Currently a range of polysaccharides such as starch, pectin and gums are routinely used as food ingredients to improve viscosity, texture or other key properties of food products.
