The conformational properties of xanthans with partially hydrolyzed side chains were investigated by optical rotation, CD, and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) . All variants displayed the well-known temperature-driven, cooperative order-disorder transition, and both optical rotation and DSC
Xanthan shows a well-known conformational transition in salt free solution at slightly elevated temperature, upon charging. Recently, a second transition was reported at higher temperature, when potentiometric results were analyzed using a Henderson-Hasselbalch representation of the titration curves
A new method is proposed for the determination of the enthalpy and entropy changes of nonionic origin upon conformational transition of linear biopolyelectrolytes in solution. For all transition midpoints, defined by given temperature and ionic strength, the total free energy change of the system is
