Development and Physical Characterization of α-Glucan Nanoparticles

α-Glucans that were enzymatically synthesized from sucrose using glucansucrase cloned from <i>Leuconostoc mesenteroides</i> NRRL B-1118 were found to have a glass transition temperature of approximately 80 °C. Using high-pressure homogenization (~70 MPa), the α-glucans were converted int...
