Abstract

Commercially available maltodextrins were subjected to high pressure size exclusion chromatography (HPSEC) on Toyo Soda G 2000 PW columns with water as the mobile phase. The elution profiles of these samples will allow researchers to select the correct maltodextrin for growth studies requiring specific dextrin oligomers. Characterization of the chromatography system with standards of known molecular weight allows estimation of the weight average molecular weight of polydisperse dextrins. The enzymatic hydrolysis of dextrin by bacterial α-amylase and fungal glucoamylase was also monitored by HPSEC.
