This study aimed to optimize the extraction of pectin and phenolics from walnut green husk using the electrohydrodynamic method (EHD) and assess its impact on the chemical structure and properties of pectin. A comparative analysis was conducted with acidified water as the conventional extraction method. The results revealed significant improvements under the optimal EHD conditions (36.

Unlabelled: Aqueous two-phase system (ATPS) composed of polyethylene glycol (PEG) and KHPO solutions was used to extract saponin from sugar beet root. Extraction yield, purity and foam capacity of saponin were optimized according to response surface methodology (RSM). Analysis of liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) showed that purified saponins were composed of hederagenin, akebonoic acid and oleanolic acid.

Background: Extraction of pectin from sugar beet pulp is a side production line to recover value-added by-products in a sugar refining company. We aimed to evaluate the influence of depectinized and non-treated fiber on the quality of food. Pectin was removed from sugar beet pulp, and sugar beet fiber with and without pectin extraction (F and FP respectively) were replaced with rice flour in gluten-free muffins.

Arabinogalactans (AGs) are plant heteropolysaccharides with complex structures occasionally attached to proteins (AGPs). AGs in cell matrix of different parts of plant are freely available or chemically bound to pectin rhamnogalactan. Type I with predominantly β-d-(1 → 4)-galactan and type II with β-d-(1 → 3) and/or (1 → 6)-galactan structural backbones construct the two main groups of AGs.

The gum asafoetida, an oleo-gum-resin from root of Ferula assa foetida, was extracted through alcoholic procedure followed by water extraction and then biochemically characterized using colorimetric assays, Fourier infrared spectroscopy, gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry, and 1D and 2D nuclear magnetic resonance. The gum was mainly composed of carbohydrates (67.39% w/w) with a monosaccharide distribution of 11.
