Abstract

Konjac is a perennial herbaceous plant from the Araceae family’s Amorphophallus genus. It has high nutritional, health, and pharmacological values. It contains various bioactive components, the most notable of which is konjac glucomannan, which has several biological roles, including efficiently fighting diabetes, exerting prebiotic activity, containing antioxidant capacity, modulating immunological function, and demonstrating anti-cancer potential. Currently, the konjac glucomannan (KGM) research mainly focuses on packaging film, gel characteristics, efficacy, and evaluation. However, the extraction, underlying portrayal, derivatization, and action of KGM are seldom detailed. Herein, the utilization of konjac as an unrefined substance was surveyed, meaning to give extensive and orderly recombinant data on the extraction, decontamination, structure, natural movement, derivatization, and use of KGM to provide a full play to the interesting gelatinate, biocompatibility, high viscosity and other properties of KGM. It provided a theoretical basis for further developing the konjac glucomannan food industry, pharmaceutical field, and other fields.

期刊介绍： Ultrasonics Sonochemistry stands as a premier international journal dedicated to the publication of high-quality research articles primarily focusing on chemical reactions and reactors induced by ultrasonic waves, known as sonochemistry. Beyond chemical reactions, the journal also welcomes contributions related to cavitation-induced events and processing, including sonoluminescence, and the transformation of materials on chemical, physical, and biological levels. Since its inception in 1994, Ultrasonics Sonochemistry has consistently maintained a top ranking in the "Acoustics" category, reflecting its esteemed reputation in the field. The journal publishes exceptional papers covering various areas of ultrasonics and sonochemistry. Its contributions are highly regarded by both academia and industry stakeholders, demonstrating its relevance and impact in advancing research and innovation.
