Salt tolerance (S) and Relative Stiffness Parameter (B) of Acacia nilotica var. nilotica Gum

Abstract

Three samples of of Acacia nilotica var. nilotica gum was subjected to comparison study of salt tolerance and stiffness parameter with chitosan nitrate and chitosan chlorhydrate. The results showed that two of samples have semi-stiff backbone with lower persistence length; the third sample has stiff backbone with higher persistence length.
