Abstract
The effects of high energy ultrasound and slightly raised temperature combined with the denaturing action of dimethylsulphoxide on the molec ular weight and higher-order structure of hyaluronans and some beta-(1 -->, 3)-glucans were studied by means of size exclusion chromatography (SEC) technique. Some experimental conditions connected with the (bio -)polymer sample preparation prior to its SEC analysis are overviewed in the light of informational relevance of studies where the action of a physical and/or chemical agent changes the hydrodynamic size of the m omolecule.
