Optimized Extraction of Pectic RG-I

The extraction method was optimized to enable industrial scale production and obtain further enrichment of pectic RG-I domains from bell pepper (bpRG-I) and carrot (cRG-I). Commonly used food processing methods were applied including aqueous extraction at 85 °C (bell pepper) or at 45 °C in the presence of Pectinex™ Ultra Mash (Novozymes, Bagsværd, Denmark) food-grade pectinolytic enzymes with pectin lyase and polygalacturonase as main activity (carrot); decanting and filtration to remove non-soluble residues; centrifugation to remove fat (decreaming, bell pepper), ultra- and dia-filtration to remove small molecules (<10 kDa), pasteurization and subsequent spray-drying of the RG-I enriched polysaccharide extracts.

Pectinase preparations Pectinex ® Ultra SPL (≥3800 U/mL, Sigma-Aldrich, Steinheim, Germany), Pectinex ® BE XXL (13,600 PECTU/g), Pectinex ® Ultra Mash (9500 PECTU/g) and Pectinex ® Ultra Tropical (5000 PECTU/g) from Novozymes (Bagsvaerd, Denmark), and Panzym ® Univers (11,000 PECTU/mL) from Begerow (Langenlonsheim, Germany) were used in this work. Apple pectin, poly galacturonic acid, and galacturonic acid were all purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (Steinheim, Germany). Nylon 6/6 pellets were from Sigma-Aldrich and threads consisting of 60 filaments with a diameter of 25 µm twisted together from Oja, Turkey. All chemical reagents and solvents used were of analytical grade.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
