    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for joint recovery of pectin from citrus peels and alkaline/acidic processing water from citrus canning, including the following steps: adding fresh citrus fruit peels to alkali/acid processing water from citrus fruit canning for extracting; filtering the resulting mixture, adding to the resulting filtrate 95% ethanol 1 to 3 times the volume of the filtrate, and then adjusting the pH to a range of 3.5 to 7, followed by standing for 10 minutes to 4 hours; filtering the product after standing, washing the resulting precipitate with 50% to 70% ethanol, and drying and crushing, thereby obtaining pectin. The method makes full use of waste resources from citrus fruit canning, solves the problem of pollution by processing discharge water, and has the advantages of saving the preparation cost of pectin from citrus peels, and improving the solubility of recovered pectin.

    Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a method for preparing a citrus-derived complex prebiotic agent. The method comprises the following steps: removing external citrus peels after blanching citrus fruits with hot water, soaking citrus segments after splitting with an acid solution and an alkali solution to remove membranes of the citrus segments, and adjusting the pH of the obtained alkali soaking water with acid soaking water or acid to be weakly acidic or neutral to obtain the complex prebiotic agent, which has the function of reversing intestinal flora disorders. Compared with the traditional prebiotic product preparing method, the product prepared by the method contains prebiotic functional components with different targets such as pectin, flavonoids, oligosaccharides, and other fibers at the same time, and has the efficacies of regulating intestinal flora and reversing intestinal flora disorders caused by antibiotics. At the same time, the preparing method has the characteristics of simple operation and low cost, perfectly supplements a comprehensive utilization process of citrus fruit processing, solves the discharge problem of citrus fruit processing water, and generates very good social benefits.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for detecting glycosidic bonds of plant polysaccharides. The method includes taking 100 μL of NaOH-DMSO suspension (1 mg/mL) of plant polysaccharides containing 20 or more kinds of substances such as galactan, araban, polygalacturonic acid, rhamnogalacturonan-I, rhamnogalacturonan-II, xyluronic acid, arabogalacturonic acid I and arabogalacturonic acid II, shaking at room temperature for 30 minutes, adding 40 μL of iodomethane and shaking for 1 hour. Such process is repeated three times to obtain methylated plant polysaccharides. The method further includes using an automatic detection equipment for methylation combined with PMP derivatization to analyze glycosidic bonds in polysaccharides. Not only the glycosidic bond information of neutral sugars can be analyzed in the subsequent LC-MS mass spectrometry analysis, but also the glycosidic bond information of acidic sugars can be resulted, and the analysis results are faster, more detailed and more reliable.

    Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a method for extracting a RG-I-rich pectic polysaccharide. The method comprises the following steps: mixing and stirring a citrus fruit peel powder and a dilute hydrochloric acid solution at a low temperature to destroy cell walls of citrus peels, filtering, and then mixing the retentate with a sodium hydroxide solution for low temperature extraction, adding ethanol to the solution obtained by filtering to precipitate, and washing the obtained polysaccharide with ethanol and drying to obtain the above pectic polysaccharide. Compared with the traditional extraction method, this method reduces the hydrolysis of pectin side chains by controlling the extraction temperature, and the extracted pectic polysaccharide is rich in RG-I domain and has higher biological activity such as cancer and cardiovascular disease prevention. Energy can be greatly saved because of the low extraction temperature. The extracted pectic polysaccharide can be potentially used as functional food ingredients.

    Abstract: A process for processing mandarin segments with both acidic and alkaline process water being directly utilized uses an organic acid or an inorganic polyacid instead of a monobasic inorganic acid. Mandarin segments, obtained by separating peeled mandarin into the segments, are treated by the organic acid or inorganic polyacid solution, and then subjected to removal of segment membranes in an alkali solution. The acidic and alkaline water after treatment is collected directly. The collected water can then be filtered and mixed for making an electrolyte beverage or a beverage base, containing multiple functional ingredients such as pectin, flavonoid, pigment, and limonin. Also, the collected water can be used to make dietary fiber having an activity of improving intestinal function.
