Structural and Physical Properties of Alginate Pretreated by High-Pressure Homogenization.
Polymers(2023)
Abstract
To develop a high-efficient extraction method, we investigated the use of high-pressure homogenization (HPH) as a novel pretreatment technology for the extraction of sodium alginate (SA) from . After the single-factor experiment, the results demonstrated that under the conditions of 100 MPa HPH pressure, 4 cycles, pH 6.0, and 0.5% EDTA for 3.0 h, the optimized extraction yield of HPH reached 34%. To further clarify the effect on the structural properties of HPH-extracted SA, we conducted comprehensive analysis using SEM, FTIR, MRS, NMR, XRD, TGA, and a T-AOC assay. Our findings revealed that HPH pretreatment significantly disrupted the structure of cells and reduced their crystallinity to 76.27%. Furthermore, the antioxidant activity of HPH-extracted SA reached 0.02942 mgVceq∙mg. Therefore, the HPH pretreatment method is a potential strategy for the extraction of alginate.
