PHYTOGLYCOGEN NANOPARTICLES AND METHODS OF MANUFACTURE THEREOF

摘要

A composition of phytoglycogen nanopartictes purified from a phytoglycogen-containing plant material is provided. The composition of phytoglycogen nanopartictes is monodisperse. A method of isolating the composition from phytoglycogen-containing plant materials is provided that includes steps of microfiltration and ultrafiltration, but avoids the use of chemical, enzymatic or thermo treatments that degrade the phytoglycogen material.
