Abstract
Citrus paradisi Macf. cv. Changshanhuyou and Citrus paradisi Macf. cv. Star Ruby are two emerging processed citrus fruits. The processing produces lots of peel wastes rich in pectin. While more attentions were paid on pectin's functional properties, the quality about commercial application like gel grade was little investigated. In this study, we established a method for gel grade determination based on texture analyzer, the new method is economical and can be used on a large scale in the laboratory. The commercial application related qualities of two citrus pectins were also studied in detail. The results showed that the yields of Changshanhuyou and Star Ruby pectins (CHP and SRP) were 20.23 % and 18.33 %, respectively. The indexes of CHP and SRP mostly were in line with the commodity standards, except the dry weight loss. The gel grades of CHP and SRP determined by the new method were 109.9 and 96.8, respectively. The CHP aqueous solution exhibited higher apparent viscosity and better performance in stabilizing acidified milk drink (AMD) compared with commercial pectin. From the view of commercial application related qualities and functional properties, CHP could be a good potential commercial pectin.

NADES assisted integrated biorefinery concept for pectin recovery from kinnow (Citrus reticulate) peel and strategic conversion of residual biomass to L(+) lactic acid. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 250:126169. [PMID: 37558023 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.126169] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/17/2023] [Revised: 07/18/2023] [Accepted: 08/04/2023] [Indexed: 08/11/2023]
Abstract
The present study aims to establish an integrated strategy for valorization of kinnow peel waste. A total of ten natural deep eutectic solvents (NADESs) were exploited for extraction of pectin. The highest yield of pectin enriched material was reported 35.66 % w/dw using choline chloride-Maltose based NADES. The extraction process parameters and chemical composition of NADES influenced the yield and different associated physico-chemical attributes of the pectin enriched material. All the recovered pectin enriched materials found to be composed of low methoxy pectin (degree of methylation: 18.41-40.26 %) and galacturonic acid (GalA) content was in range of 67.56-78.22 %. The Principal Component Analysis (PCA) was used to categorise isolated pectin enriched materials based on similarities and differences. The liquid fraction upon pectin extraction presented a considerable amount of fermentable sugar which was further utilized for lactic acid production by microbial intervention. The microbial strain Lactobacillus amylophilus GV6 was exploited for lactic acid fermentation where the highest yield reached 55.59 g/L. A sustainable and straight-forward biorefinery concept was developed for extraction of pectin enriched material and lactic acid production from kinnow peel waste with potential application in food and biotechnological sectors.

Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 246:125715. [PMID: 37419261 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.125715] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/03/2023] [Revised: 06/07/2023] [Accepted: 07/04/2023] [Indexed: 07/09/2023]
Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the physicochemical, structural and functional properties of soluble dietary fiber extracted from citrus peels (Citrus unshiu) by ultrasound-assisted alkaline extraction. Unpurified soluble dietary fiber (CSDF) was compared with purified soluble dietary fiber (PSDF) in terms of composition, molecular weight, physicochemical properties, antioxidant activity, and intestinal regulatory capacity. Results showed that the molecular weight of soluble dietary fiber was >15 kDa, which showed good shear thinning characteristics and belonged to non-Newtonian fluid. The soluble dietary fiber showed good thermal stability under 200 °C. The contents of total sugar, arabinose and sulfate in PSDF were higher than those in CSDF. At the same concentration, PSDF showed stronger free radical scavenging ability. In fermentation model experiments, PSDF promoted the production of propionic acid and increased the abundance of Bacteroides. These findings suggested that soluble dietary fiber extracted by the ultrasound-assisted alkaline extraction has good antioxidant capacity and promotes intestinal health. It has broad development space in the field of functional food ingredients.

Abstract
The structure characteristics, functional properties, antioxidant and hypoglycemic activities of pectins extracted from feijoa peel with water (FP-W), acid (FP-A) and alkali (FP-B) were investigated. Results showed that the feijoa peel pectins (FPs) were mainly composed of galacturonic acid, arabinose, galactose and rhamnose. FP-W and FP-A had higher proportion of homogalacturonan domain, degree of esterification and molecular weight (for main component) than FP-B; FP-B owned the highest yield, protein and polyphenol contents. FP-W had a compact and smooth surface morphology unlike FP-A and FP-B. FP-W and FP-A had better thermal stability than FP-B. The rheological analysis suggested that the FPs exhibited pseudoplastic fluid behavior, and the elastic characteristics were dominant. Results showed that FP-W and FP-B had superior antioxidant and hypoglycemic activities than FP-A. According to correlation analysis, monosaccharide composition, sugar ratios and degree of acetylation were chief factors affecting the functional properties, antioxidant and hypoglycemic activities of the FPs.

Carbohydr Polym 2023; 312:120833. [PMID: 37059559 DOI: 10.1016/j.carbpol.2023.120833] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/19/2022] [Revised: 03/13/2023] [Accepted: 03/16/2023] [Indexed: 04/07/2023]
Abstract
Pickering emulsions stabilized by polysaccharide particles have received increasing attention because of their potential applications in three-dimensional (3D) printing. In this study, the citrus pectins (citrus tachibana, shaddock, lemon, orange) modified with β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) were used to stabilize Pickering emulsions reaching the requirements of 3D printing. In terms of pectin chemical structure, the steric hindrance provided by the RG I regions was more conducive to the stability of the complex particles. The modification of pectin by β-CD provided the complexes a better double wettability (91.14 ± 0.14°-109.43 ± 0.22°) and a more negative ζ-potential, which was more beneficial for complexes to anchor at oil-water interface. In addition, the rheological properties, texture properties and stability of the emulsions were more responsive to the ratios of pectin/β-CD (Rβ/C). The results showed that the emulsions stabilized at a φ = 65 % and a Rβ/C = 2:2 achieved the requirements (shear thinning behavior, self-supporting ability, and stability) of 3D printing. Furthermore, the application in 3D printing demonstrated that the emulsions under the optimal condition (φ = 65 % and Rβ/C = 2:2) displayed excellent printing appearance, especially for the emulsions stabilized by β-CD/LP particles. This study provides a basis for the selection of polysaccharide-based particles to prepare 3D printing inks which may be utilized in food manufacturing.

Abstract
In this study, the modified citrus peel pectins (CPPs) were successfully produced by electrochemistry with varying NaCl concentrations of 0, 0.01 % and 0.1 % w/v using an H-type cell at 40 mA current. After 4 h, the pH and oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) of oxidized CPP solution in the anodic region were 2.00- 2.52 and 371.17- 564.45 mV, respectively, due to the electrolysis of water, whereas those of reduced CPP solution in cathodic region were 9.46- 10.84 and - 202.77 ~ -230.57 mV. The modified CPPs in the anodic region (A-0, A-0.01, and A-0.1) exhibited significantly higher weight-average molecular weights and methyl esterification degrees than those in the cathodic region (C-0, C-0.01 and C-0.1). In contrast, the K+, Mg2+, and Ca2+ contents of A-0, A-0.01, and A-0.1 were lower than those of C-0, C-0.01 and C-0.1 due to the electrophoretic migration. Furthermore, the antioxidant activities of A-0 and A-0.01 solutions were stronger than those of the C-0, C-0.01, and C-0.1, while rheological and texture properties of their hydrogels showed contradictory results. Finally, the potential structure-function relationships of CPPs were explored by combining PCA and correlation analysis. Overall, this study introduced a potential approach for pectin purification and functional low-methoxyl pectin manufacturing.

Abstract
The areca nut is one of the most important cash crops in the tropics and has substantial economic value. However, the research information about the edible quality of different areca nuts is still insufficient. This study compared the composition, texture characteristics and flavor release behaviors of four different areca nuts (AN1, AN2, AN3 and AN4) and two commercially dried areca nuts (CAN1 and CAN2). Results showed that AN1 had higher soluble fiber and lower lignin, which was the basis of its lower hardness. Meanwhile, the total soluble solid (TSS) of AN1 was the highest, which indicated that AN1 had a moister and more succulent mouthfeel. After the drying process, the lignification degree of AN1 was the lowest. Through textural analyses, the hardness of AN1 was relatively low compared to the other dried areca nuts. AN1, CAN1 and CAN2 had higher alkaline pectin content and viscosity, and better flavor retention, which indicated better edible quality. The present study revealed the differences of various areca nuts and provided vital information to further advance the study of areca nuts.

Abstract
Food processing waste and by-products such as peel of citrus fruit, melon, mango, pineapple, etc. and fruit pomace can be utilized for manufacturing of several high-value products. Valorization of these waste and by-products for extraction of pectin, can help offset growing environmental concerns, facilitate value-addition of by-products and their sustainable uses. Pectin has many applications in food industries such as gelling, thickening, stabilizing, and emulsifying agent, and as a dietary fibre. This review elaborates on various conventional and advanced, sustainable pectin extraction techniques, and paints a comparative picture between them considering extraction efficiency, quality, and functionality of the pectin. Conventional acid, alkali, and chelating agents-assisted extraction have been profusely used for pectin extraction, but advanced extraction technologies e.g., enzyme, microwave, supercritical water, ultrasonication, pulse electric field and high-pressure extraction are preferred due to less energy consumption, better quality product, higher yield, and minimal or no generation of harmful effluent.

Abstract
The disease-related suffering in colorectal cancer remains prevalent despite advancements in the field of drug delivery. Chemotherapy-related side effects and non-specificity remain a challenge in drug delivery. The great majority of hydrophobic drugs cannot be successfully delivered to the colon orally mainly due to poor solubility, low bioavailability, pH differences, and food interactions. Polymeric nanoparticles are potential drug delivery candidates but there are numerous limitations to their usefulness in colon cancer. The nanoparticles are removed from the body rapidly by p-glycoprotein efflux, inactivation, or breakdown by enzymes limiting their efficiency. Furthermore, there is a lack of selectivity in targeting cancer cells; nanoparticles may also target healthy cells, resulting in toxicity and adverse effects. The study aimed to use nanoparticles for specific targeting of the colorectal tumor cells via the oral route of administration without adverse effects. Folic acid (FA), a cancer-targeting ligand possessing a high affinity for folate receptors overexpressed in colorectal cancers was conjugated to sodium alginate- nanoparticles by NH2-linkage. The folic-acid conjugated nanoparticles (FNPs) were delivered to the colon by a pH-sensitive hydrogel synthesized by the free radical polymerization method to provide sustained drug release. The developed system referred to as the "Hydrogel-Nano (HN) drug delivery system," was specifically capable of delivering diferourylmethane to the colon. The HN system was characterized by DLS, FTIR, XRD, TGA, DSC, and SEM. The FNPs size, polydispersity index, and zeta potential were measured. The folic acid-conjugation to nanoparticles' surface was studied by UV-visible spectroscopy using Beer-Lambert's law. In-vitro studies, including sol-gel, porosity, drug loading, entrapment efficiency, etc., revealed promising results. The swelling and release studies showed pH-dependent release of the drug in colonic pH 7.4. Cellular uptake and cytotoxicity studies performed on FR-overexpressed Hela cell lines and FR-negative A-549 cell lines showed facilitated uptake of nanoparticles by folate receptors. A threefold increase in Cmax and prolongation of the mean residence time (MRT) to 14.52 +/- 0.217 h indicated sustained drug release by the HN system. The findings of the study can provide a sufficient ground that the synergistic approach of the HN system can deliver hydrophobic drugs to colorectal cancer cells via the oral route, but further in-vivo animal cancer model studies are required.

[PMID: 36613333 PMCID: PMC9818410 DOI: 10.3390/foods12010117] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/25/2022] [Revised: 12/15/2022] [Accepted: 12/21/2022] [Indexed: 12/28/2022] Open
Abstract
The peel of jabuticaba, a small fruit native to Brazil, has been shown to be a potential source of antioxidants and soluble dietary fibers. In this study, flours prepared from these peels were evaluated as a source of pectin. Different extraction methods were employed: ultrasound (US) extraction followed by low temperature heating (40 °C); in a microwave (MW) without (method 1) or with cellulase (method 2) or hemicellulase (method 3); or in a water bath (method 4). Pectin yields ranged from approximately 18% for methods 1 and 4 up to 22% for enzyme-assisted extractions (methods 2 and 3). Methods that did not employ enzymes resulted in low amounts of methoxyl pectins, as opposed to high amounts of methoxyl pectins obtained after enzyme treatment. Cyanidin-3-O-glucoside (C3G) and ellagic acid were the main phenolic compounds found in jabuticaba peel pectins, with higher C3G levels obtained with enzyme-free extraction (methods 1 and 4). All pectins from jabuticaba peel presented a reddish tone, good emulsifying properties and high swelling capacity. The pectin extracted using US+MW+cellulase (method 2) presented better emulsifying performance (higher values of emulsifying activity and emulsion stability), more effective than commercially available citrus pectin.

Abstract
Pectins obtained from citrus peel of different cultivars and growth regions were compared based on physicochemical properties and antioxidant activity in vitro. The physicochemical features were elucidated using Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), molecular weight distribution, monosaccharide composition, thermal behaviors and flow behaviors. Results showed that the different cultivars and growing areas have significant effects on the properties of citrus peel pectins (CPPs). Citrus peel pectins extracted by acetic acid were highly heterogeneous polysaccharides with broad molecular weight distributions and had high proportions of the RG-I domain. Among the 10 kinds of citrus peel pectins, Shatangju (CPP-6) and Xuecheng (CPP-7) own superior antioxidant biological activity and Dahongpao (CPP-3) and Buzhihuo (CPP-9) had excellent functional properties (thermal stability and viscosity). According to the correlation analysis, molecular weight, galacturonic acid content and degree of methyl-esterification were beneficial to increase the thermal stability and viscosity of citrus peel pectins, while the rhamnose content, rhamnogalacturonan I region and lower molecular weight can improve citrus peel pectins antioxidant activity. Our findings suggest that CPP-6 and CPP-7 may be useful as a potential natural antioxidant in pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. Meanwhile, CPP-3 has great application potential in high temperature food and CPP-9 can be used as a thickener or stabilizer in the food industry.

Abstract
In this study, pectin was modified with phenylalanine by ultra-low temperature enzymatic method to improve its gel properties. The grafting ratio of phenylalanine amidated pectin was studied under different reaction conditions. The highest value (29.21 %) was reached a reaction temperature of -5 °C and time of 12 h. Further analysis indicated that phenylalanine and high methoxyl pectin combined at the solid-liquid two phase interface under the catalysis of papain to form phenylalanine amidated pectin. Moreover, the physicochemical properties of pectin hydrogel and its feasibility as a sustained-release drug carrier were discussed. The results showed that phenylalanine amidated pectin can form hydrogel with a certain strength under acidic conditions, and there is no need to add a lot of soluble solids and divalent cations. Besides, the phenylalanine amidated pectin hydrogel as a sustained release carrier of drugs showed more sustained and complete drug release.

J Food Sci 2022; 87:2427-2439. [PMID: 35590481 DOI: 10.1111/1750-3841.16182] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/29/2021] [Revised: 04/04/2022] [Accepted: 04/20/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
Texture quality affects the sensory and market acceptance of fermentation minced pepper (FMP), but it will deteriorate during storage. Thus, high pressure processing (HPP) and thermal pasteurization (TP) were used to improve the texture quality of FMP during storage. The results showed that variations in texture quality and pectin characteristics under HPP and TP treatments were similar during storage. The hardness, cell wall material (CWM) and sodium carbonate-soluble pectin (SSP) content, water-soluble pectin (WSP) molecular weight (Mw ) decreased, while WSP content and sodium chelate-soluble pectin (CSP) Mw increased after storage. HPP-treated FMP showed higher hardness (66.64-85.95 N) than that in TP-treated one (57.23-62.72 N) during storage. Rhamnose (Rha), arabinose, mannose, and glucose were the crucial compositions in three pectins, and their total molar ratios, respectively, reached 89.19% and 87.97% after HPP and TP treatment. However, the molar ratio of most monosaccharide in three pectins decreased after storage. Atomic force microscope images indicated the short chains and branch structures increased but aggregates decreased in most pectin components during storage. Pearson correlation analysis demonstrated FMP hardness was extremely (p < 0.01) positively correlated with CWM and SSP content, and extremely (p < 0.01) negatively correlated with WSP content. Compared to TP treatment, HPP presented higher hardness, SSP content and Mw , Rha content, CSP Mw , and lower WSP content during storage. Hence, HPP was an effective method to improve the texture quality of FMP by maintaining pectin characteristics during storage. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: Softening is one of the main factors affecting market value and consumer preferences for FMP, and it is closely related to the modification and depolymerization of pectin. Changes of texture quality and pectin properties in HPP- and TP-treated FMP during storage were assessed, including hardness, the content, monosaccharide compositions, Mw distribution, and nanostructure of WSP, SSP, and CSP. Compared to TP treatment, HPP could effectively improve the texture quality of FMP by inhibiting pectin degradation during storage. All the findings presented in this study would help to provide new insights into regulating the texture quality of FMP.

Abstract
Grape pomace is one of the most abundant by-products generated from the wine industry. This by-product is a complex substrate consisted of polysaccharides, proanthocyanidins, acid pectic substances, structural proteins, lignin, and polyphenols. In an effort to valorize this material, the present study focused on the influence of extraction conditions on the yield and physico-chemical parameters of pectin. The following conditions, such as grape pomace variety (Fetească Neagră and Rară Neagră), acid type (citric, sulfuric, and nitric), particle size intervals (<125 µm, ≥125−<200 µm and ≥200−<300 µm), temperature (70, 80 and 90 °C), pH (1, 2 and 3), and extraction time (1, 2, and 3 h) were established in order to optimize the extraction of pectin. The results showed that acid type, particle size intervals, temperature, time, and pH had a significant influence on the yield and physico-chemical parameters of pectin extracted from grape pomace. According to the obtained results, the highest yield, galacturonic acid content, degree of esterification, methoxyl content, molecular, and equivalent weight of pectin were acquired for the extraction with citric acid at pH 2, particle size interval of ≥125−<200 µm, and temperature of 90 °C for 3 h. FT-IR analysis confirmed the presence of functional groups in the fingerprint region of identification for polysaccharide in the extracted pectin.

Abstract
According to the International Energy Agency, biorefinery is "the sustainable processing of biomass into a spectrum of marketable bio-based products (chemicals, materials) and bioenergy (fuels, power, heat)". In this review, we survey how the biorefinery approach can be applied to highly porous and nanostructured materials, namely aerogels. Historically, aerogels were first developed using inorganic matter. Subsequently, synthetic polymers were also employed. At the beginning of the 21st century, new aerogels were created based on biomass. Which sources of biomass can be used to make aerogels and how? This review answers these questions, paying special attention to bio-aerogels' environmental and biomedical applications. The article is a result of fruitful exchanges in the frame of the European project COST Action "CA 18125 AERoGELS: Advanced Engineering and Research of aeroGels for Environment and Life Sciences".
