Isolation and rheological properties of tamarind seed polysaccharide from tamarind kernel powder using protease enzyme and high-intensity ultrasound.

The effectiveness of using protease and combinations of protease and high-intensity ultrasound for high-purity, high-yield tamarind seed polysaccharide (TSP) production was investigated. Tamarind kernel powder (TKP) suspension was treated with protease alone at 0.16, 0.
