“…6, for the protein/polysaccharide complex, D eff resulted to be significantly affected by the variation of the ionic strength, especially at the lowest NaCl concentrations. Contrarily, according to previous studies [21,22], for the sodium alginate solutions D eff resulted to be independent, within the experimental uncertainties, of the salt concentration in the range 10-50 mM (see the inset of Fig. 6).…”
