Application

Cellulose (medium fibers) is used in metabolic pathway and carbohydrate applications. Cellulose has been used to study biofuel and biorefinery applications.

Cellulose has been used:

for biomass analysis in pyrolysis process
in column chromatography to purify organisms from uninfected erythrocytes and white cells
as a standard in fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) to study conformational characteristics of bacterial cellulose (BC) obtained from Hestrin-Schramm (HS) medium
as a control in diet-related animal studies to evaluate the hypocholesterolemic activity of botryosphaeran

High purity cellulose powders for partition chromatography.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Cellulose helps in maintaining the structural stability of plant cell walls. It is an important component of paper and fabrics made from cotton, and linen.

General description

Cellulose, a β-glucan insoluble in water is an important constituent of plant cell wall. It is a tough, fibrous polysaccharide, which has a linear chain of glucose residues, linked with β-1,4 bond. Plants produces this biopolymer abundantly.

Plasmodium vinckei genomes provide insights into the pan-genome and evolution of rodent malaria parasites.

Abhinay Ramaprasad et al.

BMC biology, 19(1), 69-69 (2021-04-24)

Rodent malaria parasites (RMPs) serve as tractable tools to study malaria parasite biology and host-parasite-vector interactions. Among the four RMPs originally collected from wild thicket rats in sub-Saharan Central Africa and adapted to laboratory mice, Plasmodium vinckei is the most
