    Liquid-liquid equilibrium of poly(ethylene glycol) 2000 + diammonium hydrogen citrate + water system at different temperatures
    (2011) Iyyaswami, I.; Srikanth, C.K.; Sindhu, N.
    Phase diagrams and liquid-liquid equilibrium (LLE) data of the aqueous poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG-2000) + diammonium hydrogen citrate system (aqueous two-phase system) has been determined experimentally at (298.15, 303.15, 308.15, 313.15, and 318.15) K. The effects of temperature on the binodal curve and tie-lines have been studied. The binodal curve was fitted to an empirical equation relating the concentrations of PEG 2000 and diammonium hydrogen citrate, and the coefficients were estimated for the respective temperatures. Tie line compositions were estimated and correlated using Othmer-Tobias and Bancroft equations, and the parameters are reported. The effect of temperature on the phase-forming ability in the investigated system has been studied based on a salting-out coefficient; obtained from fitting the binodal data to a Setschenow-type equation for each temperature. The effective excluded volume values were also calculated from the binodal data. © 2011 American Chemical Society.

    Partitioning studies of glutaminase in polyethylene glycol and salt-based aqueous two-phase systems
    (2013) Bolar, S.; Belur, P.D.; Iyyaswami, I.
    The partitioning behavior of glutaminase produced from Zygosaccharomyces rouxii in polyethylene glycol (PEG)-salt aqueous two-phase systems (ATPSs) was investigated. ATPSs comprising of different PEG-salts were considered. Binodal data and tie lines generated for the selected systems were analyzed and correlated with Othmer-Tobias and Bancroft equations. Effects of salt type, PEG molecular weight, concentrations of phase components, and tie line length on enzyme partitioning were evaluated. © 2013 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.
