The oxidation of natural polysaccharides by TEMPO has become by now an “old chemical
reaction” which led to numerous studies mainly conducted on cellulose. This regioselective …

The development of delivery systems using natural polymers such as gums offers distinct
advantages, such as, biocompatibility, biodegradability, and cost effectiveness. Cashew …

Carbon quantum dots (C-dots) with average size of 9 nm were synthesized from an aqueous
solution of raw cashew gum (RCG) using a novel and fast microwave-assisted technique …

The synthesis of cashew gum-g-polyacrylamide was carried out at 60° C by a radical
polymerisation using potassium persulphate as the redox initiator under N2 atmosphere. A …

A brief comment about general characteristics of polysaccharide was presented. Brazilian
trade of polysaccharides was obtained from the" Ministério de Desenvolvimento, Indústria e …

The aim of the present work was to modify the exuded gum of Sterculia striata tree by an
amination reaction. The viscosity and zero potential of the chicha gum varied as a function of …

Chemical modifications to cashew gum (CG) structure have been previously reported to
obtain new physicochemical characteristics, however until now there were no reports of …

Natural polysaccharides have been investigated as vehicles for oral insulin administration.
Because of their non-toxic, renewable, low cost and readily available properties, gums find …

This study focuses on the production and characterization of electrosprayed cashew gum
(CG) microparticles that encapsulate β-carotene. CG is an inexpensive, non-toxic …

Cashew nut shell liquid (CNSL) is a by-product of the cashew kernel industry, applied
mainly to produce polymeric derivatives. The technical CNSL (CNSLT) was obtained …
