Description
Alginates: Biology and Applications provides an overview of the state of art of alginate material properties, genetics and the molecular mechanisms underlying alginate biosynthesis as well as applications of tailor-made alginates in medicine, food and biotechnology.
Topics treated are:
material properties of alginates
alginate production: precursor biosynthesis, polymerization and secretion
bacterial system for alginate uptake and degradation
enzymatic alginate modification
alginate gene regulation
role of alginate in bacterial biofilms
microbial production of alginates: physiology and process aspects
alginate-based blends and nano/microbeads
applications of alginates in food
alginate and its comonomer mannuronic acid: medical relevance as drugs
