Abstract
The valorization of by-products eliminates the risks of economic barriers and reduces the overall amount of pollution and the carbon footprint of the products. In this context, conventional heating extraction (CE) and microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) were compared to extract pectin from apple pomace. The effects of temperature on MAE were evaluated based on the resulting properties obtained in subsequent pectin hydrogels. A pectin yield of 10.6 ± 0.3% was obtained by MAE with 5 min extraction, while CE showed a yield of 9.5 ± 0.3% after 2 h. The pectin extracted by both methods had a low methoxyl content, indicating a low degree of esterification. The galacturonic acid content was greater than 60% for most samples. Zeta potential analysis indicated the ability of the pectin to form stable gels. According to the X-ray diffractograms, increasing the extraction temperature led to a decrease in the crystallinity of the pectin structure. Rheological tests showed increased storage modulus as the temperature increased by MAE from 80 to 100 °C for the pectin-based hydrogel. The water holding capacity was greater than 50% for all hydrogels. Furthermore, an analysis of electrical consumption and energy costs highlighted the economic advantage of using microwave heating technology to extract pectin.
期刊介绍:
Food Hydrocolloids publishes original and innovative research focused on the characterization, functional properties, and applications of hydrocolloid materials used in food products. These hydrocolloids, defined as polysaccharides and proteins of commercial importance, are added to control aspects such as texture, stability, rheology, and sensory properties. The research's primary emphasis should be on the hydrocolloids themselves, with thorough descriptions of their source, nature, and physicochemical characteristics. Manuscripts are expected to clearly outline specific aims and objectives, include a fundamental discussion of research findings at the molecular level, and address the significance of the results. Studies on hydrocolloids in complex formulations should concentrate on their overall properties and mechanisms of action, while simple formulation development studies may not be considered for publication.
The main areas of interest are:
-Chemical and physicochemical characterisation
Thermal properties including glass transitions and conformational changes-
Rheological properties including viscosity, viscoelastic properties and gelation behaviour-
The influence on organoleptic properties-
Interfacial properties including stabilisation of dispersions, emulsions and foams-
Film forming properties with application to edible films and active packaging-
Encapsulation and controlled release of active compounds-
The influence on health including their role as dietary fibre-
Manipulation of hydrocolloid structure and functionality through chemical, biochemical and physical processes-
New hydrocolloids and hydrocolloid sources of commercial potential.
The Journal also publishes Review articles that provide an overview of the latest developments in topics of specific interest to researchers in this field of activity.
