The mechanical properties of monolayers from two Acacia gums [Acacia senegal (L.) Willd. and Acacia seyal Del.] and their three fractions isolated by hydrophobic interaction chromatography were studied with a Langmuir film balance to obtain a more complete understanding of their action mode. The analysis of compression isotherms revealed that A. senegal gums globally exhibit better interfacial properties than A. seyal ones. The behavior of the whole gums appeared to be strongly influenced by their arabinogalactan-protein complex.

Naturally occurring hydrophilic colloids are versatile excipients in drug delivery systems. They are often used as coating materials, disintegrating agents, binders, emulsion stabilizers, and other applications. This study sought to investigate the physicochemical and emulsifying properties of gum extracted from (MA).

Polysaccharide-based materials of plant origin are known to have been used as binding media in paint and ground layers of artifacts from ancient Egypt, including wall paintings, cartonnages and sarcophagi. The use of gums from , and genera has been suggested in the literature on the basis of their qualitative or quantitative monosaccharide profile after complete chemical hydrolysis. The introduction of partial enzymatic digestion of the polysaccharide material, followed by analysis of the released oligosaccharides by matrix assisted laser desorption ionization-time-of-flight mass spectrometry, has proved effective in discriminating among gums from different genera, as well as among species within the genus.

Speare is the only entomopathogenic fungus involved in Kuwayama natural epizootics. The aim of the present study was to evaluate different protein sources as supplements to stimulate growth, improve conidiation on solid culture, and evaluate its produced gum for conidia formulation against adults. INIFAP-Hir-2 strain was grown on agar media enriched with wheat bran, wheat germ, soy, amaranth, quinoa, and pumpkin seed, in addition to oat with wheat bran and/or amaranth.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how temperature affects the aggregation of demineralized arabinogalactan-proteins (AGPs) from Acacia seyal gum during dry incubation, showing that aggregation begins at temperatures as low as 25°C and accelerates as temperatures increase.
- The aggregation process involves self-assembly, with activation energy suggesting the involvement of chemical reactions tied to the dehydration of AGP surfaces.
- After about 1.66 days at 40°C, soluble aggregates form larger microparticles, revealing that cations in AGPs help protect against aggregation during heating, with demineralization increasing their reactivity.
