Octenyl succinic anhydride (OSA) has been widely reported for modification of starches and bears an amphiphilic character and is permitted for food applications. The present study was conducted to impart an amphiphilic character to tamarind seed xyloglucan (TSX) by its conjugation to OSA with an obj...
