Abstract
Pomelo peel is a valuable source of pectin, but research on its cell wall polysaccharides is limited. This study compared the cell wall polysaccharides of pomelo peel, enzyme-extracted polysaccharides of pomelo peel, and enzyme-extracted polysaccharides of whole pomelo fruit. Cell wall polysaccharides, including water-soluble pectin (WSP), chelator-soluble pectin (CSP), sodium carbonate-soluble pectin (NSP), 1 mol/L KOH soluble hemicellulose (KSH-1), and 4 mol/L KOH soluble hemicellulose (KSH-2), were obtained by sequence-extraction method. Total polysaccharides from whole pomelo fruit (TP) and peel-polysaccharides from pomelo pericarps (PP) were obtained using enzyme-extraction method. The structural, thermal, rheological, antioxidant properties, and wound healing effect in vitro were described for each polysaccharide. WSP had a uniform molecular weight distribution and high uronic acid (UA) content, suitable for commercial pectin. NSP had the highest Rhamnose (Rha)/UA ratio and a rich side chain with highest viscosity and water retention. PP displayed the highest DPPH radical scavenging activity and reducing capacity at 0.1 to 2.0 mg/mL concentration range, with an IC50 of 1.05 mg/mL for DPPH free radicals. NSP also demonstrated the highest hydroxyl radical scavenging activity and promoted Human dermal keratinocyte proliferation and migration at 10 μg/mL, suggesting potential applications in daily chemical and pharmaceutical industries.

Abstract
Introduction Many probiotics have the ability to produce extracellular polysaccharides (EPS). EPS derived from these probiotics has been confirmed to regulate the host intestinal microecological balance and alleviate the symptoms of diseases caused by gastrointestinal microecological imbalance. Results Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) strain with good exopolysaccharide (EPS) producing ability, namely, Lacticaseibacillus paracasei ZFM54 (L. paracasei ZFM54) was screened. The fermentation conditions of L. paracasei ZFM54 for EPS production were optimized. The EPS54 was characterized by chemical component and monosaccharide composition determination, UV, FT-IR and NMR spectra analysis. Cango red, SEM, AFM and XRD analysis were conducted to characterize the structure of EPS54. The EPS54 effectively reduced the colonization of Helicobacter pylori to AGS cells and recovered the cell morphology. EPS54 could also effectively alleviate the gastritis in the H. pylori-infected mice by down-regulating the mRNA expression levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-6, IL-8, IL-1β and TNF-α and up-regulating the mRNA expression of inflammatory cytokine IL-10 in gastric cells. EPS54 was also found to be able to positively regulate the structure of gastric microbiota. Conclusion The EPS 54 from L. paracasei ZFM54 can alleviate gastritis in H. pylori-infected mice by modulating the gastric microbiota.

Abstract
The biological potency of pectin is intricately intertwined with its intricate molecular architecture. The fine structure of pectin is influenced by the extraction method, while the specific impact of these methods on the fine structure and the affected attributes thereof remains enigmatic. This study delves into the profound analysis of eight distinct extraction methods influence on the structure and biological activity of citrus peel pectin. The findings demonstrate that citric acid ultrasound-assisted microwave extraction yields pectin (PectinCA-US/MV) with higher viscosity and a dense, rigid chain. Pectin extracted with acetic acid ultrasound (PectinAA-US) and citric acid ultrasound (PectinCA-US) exhibits elevated galacturonic acid (GalA) levels and reduced D-galactose (Gal) content, enhancing antioxidant activity. Eight pectin-chitosan (CS) hydrogels, especially PectinCA-US/MV-CS, demonstrate commendable thermal stability, rheological properties, self-healing capability, and swelling behavior. This study characterizes citrus peel pectin properties from different extraction methods, laying a foundation for its application in food, pharmaceuticals, and industry.

Abstract
The effects of subcritical water microenvironment on the physiochemical properties, antioxidant activity and in vitro digestion of polysaccharides (SWESPs) from squash were investigated. After single-factor experiments, twenty samples were successfully prepared at different extraction temperatures (110, 130, 150, 170 and 190 °C) and extraction times (4, 8, 12 and 16 min). Under a low temperature environment, the whole process was mainly based on the extraction of SWESP. At this time, the color of SWESP was white or light gray and the molecular mass was high. When the temperature was 150 °C, since the extraction and degradation of SWESP reached equilibrium, the maximum extraction rate (18.67%) was reached at 150 °C (12 min). Compared with traditional methods, the yield of squash SWESP extracted by subcritical water was 3-4 times higher and less time consuming. Under high temperature conditions, SWESPs were degraded and their antioxidant capacity and viscosity were reduced. Meanwhile, Maillard and caramelization reactions turned the SWESPs yellow-brown and produced harmful substances. In addition, different SWESPs had different effects on in vitro digestion. In brief, SWESPs prepared under different conditions have different structures and physicochemical properties, allowing the obtainment of the required polysaccharide. Our results show that squash polysaccharides prepared in different subcritical water states had good development potential and application in the food industry.

Abstract
Pectin is a valuable product that can be extracted from waste fruit peels. Here we propose the use of graphene oxide (GO)-based membranes for pectin concentration. The synthesized GO was functionalized with ethylenediamine (EDA) to molecularly design the GO framework. Kaolin hollow fibers with asymmetric pore distribution were used as a porous substrate for GO/EDA deposition. A GO/EDA layer with a thickness of 2.86 ± 0.24 μm was assembled on the substrate by the simple vacuum-assisted deposition method. After GO/EDA depositions, the water permeance of the pristine kaolin hollow fibers reduced from 8.46 ± 0.17 to 0.52 ± 0.03 L h-1·m-2·kPa-1. A pectin aqueous extract from orange peels was filtered at cross-flow mode through the prepared membranes and the steady-state fluxes through pristine and GO/EDA-coated hollow fibers were 56 ± 2 and 20 ± 3 L h-1 m-2, respectively. The GO/EDA-coated membrane presented greater pectin selectivity than the pristine hollow fiber. The GO/EDA-coated hollow fiber concentrated the galacturonic acid, phenolic, and methoxyl contents in 19.5, 17.4, and 29.2 %, respectively. Thus, filtration through the GO/EDA-based membrane is a suitable alternative for pectin concentration.

Abstract
In this research, the ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) conditions of the water-soluble polysaccharide (FCPS) from Ficus carica fruits were optimized using the response surface methodology. The optimal FCPS yield was 7.97 % achieved by conducting ultrasound-assisted extraction four times at a solid-liquid ratio of 1:20 (g/mL) and an ultrasound temperature of 70 °C. Then, the structure, antioxidant properties, hypoglycemic effects, and immunomodulatory activities of FCPS were evaluated. FCPS was characterized as irregular, rough-surfaced, flaky materials consisting of pyran-type polysaccharides with α- and β-glycosidic linkages, and composed of multiple monosaccharides and only one homogeneous concentrated polysaccharide component (FCPS1) with a molecular weight of 4.224 × 104 Da. The results suggested FCPS exhibited remarkable antioxidant activity in vitro, as evidenced by improved cell viability and reduced the reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels. Meanwhile, FCPS effectively improved liver-related insulin resistance by promoting glucose consumption in hepatocytes and activated the immune response through activation of murine bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (DCs) and upregulation of interleukin 6 (IL6) and interleukin 12 (IL-12) expression. The findings demonstrate the efficacy of the UAE technique in isolating FCPS with biological functionality and FCPS could potentially serve as a beneficial organic antioxidant source and functional food, carrying important implications for future studies.

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
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
To improve the viability of Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus ZFM231 strain in the gastrointestinal tract and exhibit better probiotic effect, an internal emulsification/gelation technique was employed to encapsulate this strain using whey protein and pectin as wall materials to fabricate the double layer microcapsules. Four key factors affecting the encapsulation process were optimized using single factor analysis and response surface methodology. Encapsulation efficiency of L. rhamnosus ZFM231 reached 89.46 ± 0.82 %, the microcapsules possessed a particle size of 172 ± 1.80 μm and ζ-potential of -18.36 mV. The characters of the microcapsules were assessed using optical microscope, SEM, FT-IR and XRD analysis. It was found that after exposure to simulated gastric fluid, the bacterial count (log (CFU g-1)) of the microcapsules only lost 1.96 units, the bacteria were released readily in simulated intestinal fluid, reaching 86.56 % after 90 min. After stored at 4 °C for 28 days and 25 °C for 14 days, bacterial count of the dry microcapsules decreased from 10.59 to 9.02 and 10.49 to 8.70 log (CFU g-1), respectively. The double layered microcapsules could significantly increase the storage and thermal abilities of bacteria. Such L. rhamnosus ZFM231 microcapsules could find applications as ingredient of the functional foods and the dairy products.

Abstract
Fucosylated oligosaccharides have promising prospects in various fields. In this study, a fucosylated trisaccharide (GFG) was separated from the acidolysis products of exopolysaccharides from Clavibacter michiganensis M1. Structural characterization demonstrated that GFG consists of glucose, galactose, and fucose, with a molecular weight of 488 Da. Nuclear magnetic resonance analysis showed that it has a different structure than that of 2'-fucosyllactose (2'-FL), even though they have the same monosaccharide composition. In vitro prebiotic experiments were conducted to evaluate the differences in the utilization of three selected carbohydrates by fourteen bacterial strains. In comparison with 2'-FL, GFG could be utilized by more beneficial bacteria, leading to generate more short-chain fatty acids. Moreover, GFG could not promote the proliferation of Escherichia coli. This work describes a novel fucosylated oligosaccharide and its preparation method, and the obtained trisaccharide may serve as a promising candidate for fucosylated human milk oligosaccharides.

Abstract
Natural polysaccharides were isolated and purified from Cucurbita moschata by hot water extraction and mild acid-base sequential extraction. Chemical and instrumental studies revealed that hot water-extracted and mild acid-extracted polysaccharides with molecular masses of 48 kDa and 85 kDa were both pectic polysaccharides with homogalacturonan (HG) and rhamnogalacturonan-I (RG-I) domains, while mild acid-extracted polysaccharide was more dominated by branched RG-I with higher contents of galactose (10.59 %) and arabinose (8.08 %). Furthermore, mild acid-extracted polysaccharide exhibited better thickening and emulsifying properties, likely due to its larger molecular mass and higher branching degree. Mild base-extracted polysaccharide with a molecular mass of 18 kDa was a glucan-like polysaccharide. It showed the strongest thermostability and gel behavior among these pumpkin polysaccharides, likely attributed to its unique network structure stabilized by substantial intra/intermolecular hydrogen bonds. This study aimed to establish the structure-property relationships between these structurally diverse pumpkin polysaccharides from different extraction methods and provided theoretical foundations for their targeted application in foods.

Purification, physico-chemical properties and antioxidant activity of polysaccharides from Sargassum fusiforme by hydrogen peroxide/ascorbic acid-assisted extraction.

[PMID: 36356868 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2022.11.030] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/11/2022] [Revised: 11/02/2022] [Accepted: 11/03/2022] [Indexed: 11/09/2022]
Abstract
The biological activities of Sargassum fusiforme polysaccharides (SFP) were affected significantly by the extraction method. In order to screen the optimum extraction technology for SFP with high yield and biological activities, six extraction methods, including hot water extraction (HWE), acid-assisted extraction (ACAE), alkali-assisted extraction (ALAE), ultrasonic-assisted extraction (UAE), microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) and hydrogen peroxide/ascorbic acid-assisted extraction (HAE) were compared for the preparation of SFP. Based on the yield and in vitro antioxidant activity of the crude polysaccharides obtained by the six extraction methods, HAE was selected for the extraction of SFP. The SFP prepared by HAE (H-SFP) was purified by cellulose DEAE-52 ion-exchange chromatography, obtaining two purified fractions, namely H-SFP3 and H-SFP5. The analyses of their chemical composition, physico-chemical properties and the antioxidant capacity were performed. It was found that the crude SFP and the purified fractions possessed considerable ability to scavenge DPPH, hydroxyl and ABTS•+ radicals. These polysaccharide fractions were also found to effectively reduce the reactive oxygen species (ROS) level and increase the superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity in H2O2-induced oxidative stress RAW264.7 cells. The SFP prepared by the HAE has the potential as a natural non-toxic antioxidant and can be used as an ingredient in functional foods.

Encapsulation of resveratrol-loaded Pickering emulsions in alginate/pectin hydrogel beads: Improved stability and modification of digestive behavior in the gastrointestinal tract.

Abstract
In this study, alginate/pectin hydrogel beads were prepared with different mixing ratios (9:1, 8:2, 7:3, 6:4, and 5:5) to encapsulate resveratrol-loaded Pickering emulsions using Ca2+ crosslinking. The system with a suitable ratio of pectin and alginate can enhance the encapsulation efficiency and loading capacity. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) study confirmed that the hydrogel beads were spherical, in which Pickering emulsion was distributed evenly within the polymer network. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) study indicated that the hydrogel beads were formed by physical cross-linking. X-ray diffraction (XRD) study demonstrated that resveratrol existed in hydrogel beads with an amorphous or dissolved form. Besides, the stability and antioxidant capacity suggested that hydrogel beads could offer protection to resveratrol by preventing degradation through environmental stresses, while maintaining its antioxidant capacity. Importantly, hydrogels significantly reduced the release of free fatty acids and resveratrol during in vitro digestion compared to emulsions, especially with the appropriate ratio of sodium alginate and pectin. Overall, Pickering emulsions-loaded alginate/pectin hydrogel beads could offer a novel option for the preparation of low-calorie foods and a potential substitute model for controlling the release of free fatty acids contributing to the transportation of resveratrol.

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
The yield, physicochemical and rheological parameters of grape pomace pectin (Fetească Neagră and Rară Neagră) obtained by conventional extraction (CE) were compared to those acquired by pulsed ultrasound-assisted extraction (PUAE). Extraction temperature (70–90 °C), pH (1–3) and time (1–3 h) were considered as independent variables for CE, while amplitude (20–100%), pH (1–3) and time (20–60 min) for PUAE. The optimal conditions for maximum yield and physicochemical parameters of pectin samples extracted by CE were temperature of 90 °C, pH 1.9 for 164 min (9.96% yield, 79.91 g/100 g of galacturonic acid (GalA) content, 81.28% of degree of esterification (DE) and 5.52 × 104 g/mol of molecular weight (Mw) for Fetească Neagră (FN) pectin; 11.08% yield, 80.05 g/100 g of GalA content, 80.86% of DE and 5.59 × 104 g/mol of Mw for Rară Neagră (RN) pectin), while for PUAE they were amplitude of 100%, pH 1.8 for 60 min (8.83% yield, 80.24 g/100 g of GalA content, 81.07% of DE and 4.19 × 104 g/mol of Mw for FN pectin; 8.94% yield, 78.64 g/100 g of GalA content, 80.04% of DE and 4.23 × 104 g/mol of Mw for RN pectin). The yield and physicochemical parameters of CE pectin were higher than PUAE pectin. The FT-IR spectra of pectin samples revealed the occurrence of polysaccharide compound, while rheology characteristics confirming its application in different food products.

Abstract
The utilization of microwave technique for the pectin extraction from grape pomace (Fetească Neagră and Rară Neagră), its influence on yield, galacturonic acid content, degree of esterification and molecular weight of pectin were analyzed. The optimal conditions of the extraction process were microwave power of 560 W, pH of 1.8 for 120 s. The pectin samples extracted by MAE in optimal conditions were analyzed by comparing with commercial apple and citrus pectin based on FT-IR analysis, thermal behavior, rheological characteristics and microstructure. The FT-IR analysis established the presence of different functional groups which are attributed to the finger print region of extracted pectin, while the rheological behavior presented a good viscoelasticity of pectin solutions. The obtained data assumes that grape pomace has a great potential to be a valuable source of pectin which can be extracted by simple and quick techniques, while maintaining analogous quality to conventional sources of pectin.

Abstract
"High-pressure processing (HPP) plus" combined technologies are applied to overcome the limitation of single HPP and to produce juices with more stable quality during storage. This research explored the potential of HPP in combination with centrifugation to produce cloud stable orange juice during refrigerated storage. The results indicated that HPP combined processing technology significantly improved the cloud stability of orange juice, which was related to removed large particles, reduced viscosity, decreased protein contents, and inactivated pectin methylesterase activity induced by centrifugation (P < 0.05). Besides, chelator solubilized pectin (CSP) decreased but water solubilized pectin (WSP) maintained in the juice after centrifugation. During storage, the conversion of pectin fraction from WSP to CSP, resulting in sedimentation appeared in centrifugation treated orange juice when stored for 28 days. In general, pectin characteristics changes and pectin fractions conversion were the main driving forces affecting cloud stability of orange juice pasteurized by HPP in combination with centrifugation and during chilled storage.
