The 1H and 13C NMR spectra of EPS MED17 demonstrated that this EPS was a dextran type glucan ((1 → 6)-linked α-D-glucose core structure) containing (1 → 3)-linked α-D-glucose branches and proportion of (1 → 6)-linked α-D-glucose units to (1 → 3)-linked α-D-glucose units was 94.3:5.7%. The FTIR analysis also confirmed the (1 → 6)-linked α-D-glucose linkage. A high level of thermal stability was observed for glucan MED17 as no degradation up to 300 °C was observed by TGA and DSC analysis. The XRD analysis of glucan MED17 showed its semi- crystalline nature and its compact sheet-like morphology was observed by SEM analysis. Finally, antioxidant characteristics of glucan MED17 were determined by ABTS and DPPH radical scavenging activity tests that revealed a moderate antioxidant activity of glucan MED17. These findings show potential techno-functional characteristics of glucan MED17.</dc:description><dc:publisher>Elsevier B.V.</dc:publisher><dc:date>2020</dc:date><dc:type>Article</dc:type><dc:identifier>https://rdlopen.rawdatalibrary.net/r/bayburt/13583</dc:identifier><dc:identifier>https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2020.06.030</dc:identifier><dc:identifier>0141-8130</dc:identifier><dc:language>en</dc:language><dc:relation>International Journal of Biological Macromolecules</dc:relation><dc:rights>info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccess</dc:rights><dc:type>info:eu-repo/semantics/article</dc:type><dc:identifier>https://bayburt-rdlopen.rawdatalibrary.net/tr/items/bayburt/13583</dc:identifier></oai_dc:dc></metadata></record></GetRecord></OAI-PMH>
