Carboxymethyl konjac glucomannan-chitosan (CKGM-CS) nanoparticles were spontaneously prepared under very mild conditions via polyelectrolyte complexation. Bovine serum albumin (BSA), as a model protein drug, was incorporated into the CKGM-CS nanoparticles. The physicochemical properties of the

Carboxymethyl konjac glucomannan-chitosan (CKGM-CS) nanoparticles, which are well dispersed and stable in aqueous solution, were spontaneously prepared under very mild conditions via polyelectrolyte complexation. The physicochemical properties of the nanoparticles were identified by Zetasizer 3000

Carboxylmethylated konjac glucomannan (CKGM) is a carboxylmethylated polymer of mannose and glucose that is derived from the plant Amorphophallus konjac cultivated in East Asia. The CKGM solution had a high volume-expanding efficacy and was evaluated as a plasma substitute in the present study.

In this study, low-cost konjac glucomannan (KGM) microspheres used for desalting were developed by an inverse dispersion method. High concentration of KGM was pretreated to reduce viscosity by acid hydrolysis method under the condition of high temperature and pressure. The selectivity of the

Controlled release beads were prepared by using alginate (ALG), konjac glucomannan (KGM) and chitosan (CHI). Bovine serum albumin and insulin were used as model proteins for in vitro assessments. It was observed that KGM could be contained within beads, and faintness hydrogen binding and

Konjac ceramide (kCer) is a plant-type ceramide composed of various long-chain bases and a-hydroxyl fatty acids. The presence of d4t,8t-sphingadienine is essential for semaphorin 3A (Sema3A)-like activity. Herein, we examined the three neuropilin 1 (Nrp1) domains (a1a2, b1b2, or c), and found that

Effects of 0.03% polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) in the diet and various dietary fibers [konjac mannan (KM), pectin, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and cellulose] at a 5% level in the diet on serum and liver lipid metabolism and urinary ascorbic acid were studied. A comparison between dietary
