Synergistic gelation of dilute (0.1% total gums) mixed solutions of xanthan and galactomannan isolated from seeds of Delonix regia was investigated. Gelation occurred in a mixed solution of xanthan and galactomannan at 0.1% total gums at room temperature (25 °C). The flow curves of mixed solutions of native xanthan and galactomannan showed plastic behavior. The maximum elastic modulus was obtained when the ratio of the xanthan to galactomannan was 2:1 at room temperature (25 °C). The largest elastic modulus was observed in the mixture solution of deacetylated xanthan. However, a small elastic modulus was obtained in the mixture with depyruvated xanthan. The results obtained supported the interaction mechanism between xanthan and galactomannan (locust bean gum) previously proposed, and the pyruvate methyl groups might also take part in the interaction.  相似文献

This paper presents an analytical GC-MS procedure to study the chemical composition of plant gums, determining aldoses and uronic acids in one step. The procedure is based on the silylation of aldoses and uronic acids, released from plant gums by microwave assisted hydrolysis, and previously converted into the corresponding diethyl-dithioacetals and diethyl-dithioacetal lactones. Using this method only one peak for each compound is obtained, thus providing simple and highly reproducible chromatograms. The analytical procedure was optimised using reference samples of raw plant gums (arabic, karaya, ghatti, guar, locust bean and tragacanth, cherry, plum and peach gums), commercial watercolours and paint layers prepared according to ancient recipes at the Opificio delle Pietre Dure of Florence (Italy). To identify gum media in samples of unknown composition, a decisional schema for the gum identification and the principal component analysis of the relative sugar percentage contents were employed. The procedure was used to study samples collected from wall paintings from Macedonian tombs (4th-3rd centuries bc) and from the Mycenaean "Palace of Nestor" (13th century bc) in Pylos, Greece. The presence of carbohydrates was ascertained and plant gum binders (fruit and a mixture of tragacanth and fruit tree gums) were identified in some of the samples.  相似文献

Guar gum, a galactomannan from the seed endosperm of the legume, Cyamopsis tetragonolobus, is an important food stabilizer used in a variety of food products ranging from sauces to ice cream. Two guars having viscosities 13-250% higher than conventional guars were studied. Viscosity, effect of shear rate on viscosity, synergy with xanthan gum, granulation, galactomannan content, molecular weight, and scanning electron microscopy of the guar types were evaluated. At equal usage levels of guar, the high viscosity type showed a higher viscosity alone and in combination with xanthan gum under all conditions tested. The high viscosity products have electron microscopic morphology that is more elongated and molecular weights which are greater than normal guars. These factors are discussed in light of the viscosity differences which exist between these products.  相似文献

In the frame of formulation of W/O emulsions entrapping polysaccharides devoted to agricultural applications, the aim of this work was to study the stability over time of these emulsions, stabilized with either soybean lecithin or polyglycerol polyricinoleate (PGPR) as emulsifiers. Emulsifiers were dissolved in oil phase, and polysaccharides (carboxymethycellulose (CMC), guar, xanthan) in ultrapure water. Emulsions stability was studied through natural aging tests and accelerated aging tests, using bottle tests, microscopy and calorimetry. Experiments showed that PGPR was more efficient than lecithin to stabilize emulsions containing the polysaccharides studied, and that emulsions prepared with CMC showed the best stability.  相似文献

This study investigated effect of temperature, concentration, and shear rate on rheological properties of xanthan gum aqueous solutions using a Couette viscometer at temperatures between 25°C and 55°C and concentrations of 0.25 wt% to 1.0 wt%. The Herschel–Bulkley model described very well the non-Newtonian behavior of xanthan gum solutions. Shear rate, temperature, and concentration affected apparent viscosity and an equation was proposed for the temperature and concentration effect valid for each shear rate. This article also presents an artificial neural network (ANN) model to predict apparent viscosity. Based on statistical analysis, the ANN method estimated viscosity with high accuracy and low error.  相似文献

Effect of hydrocolloids on starch thermal transitions,as measured by DSC   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) was used to analyze the influence of different hydrocolloids (xanthan, guar, and locust bean gums, carboxymethylcellulose and sodium alginate) on the gelatinization of corn starch in systems with starch concentration ranging between 0.1 and 0.7 g starch/g mixture. The reduction of available water produced a shift in gelatinization temperature, especially of the conclusion temperature. The effect was more marked for ionic hydrocolloids. The influence of hydrocolloids on glass transition temperature (T g) of gelatinized starch suspensions and on the glass transition temperature of the maximally freeze-concentrated solute/unfrozen water matrix (T g) was also studied.T g onset values ranged between –4.5 and –5.5C for corn starch pastes with and without hydrocolloids. Those hydrocolloids that increased the viscosity of the unfrozen matrix inhibited additional ice formation during thawing (devitrification).Starch concentration and final heating temperature were found to be relevant factors affecting the kinetics of amylopectin retrogradation during frozen storage at –4C. Xanthan gum failed to prevent amylopectin retrogradation; this observation could be attributed to the fact that gums act outside the starch granule, while amylopectin retrogradation takes place within the granule.  相似文献

Effects of xanthan gum (XG) (0.1 wt%) and pectin (PE) (0.5 wt%) alone and in combination with different concentrations (0.2 and 0.4 wt%) of locust bean gum (LBG), modified starch (MS), and Na-alginate (ALG) on some of the rheological characteristics of low-fat spreads, including flow behavior curves, rheological modeling, apparent viscosity, rheological modules (storage modulus (G′) and loss modulus (G″)), and delta degree (G″/G′) were studied. Results showed the power-law model was better than the Herschel–Bulkley model to describe the flow curve of dispersions. The k-value in the power-law model increased with increase in biopolymers concentration in solution. All samples exhibited shear-thinning flow behavior with a low yield stress. Dynamic oscillatory shear test showed that the spreads had a viscoelastic solid behavior with a gel-like structure. The G′ value was increased by increasing frequency from 0.03 to 15 Hz, while the G″ and G″/G′ values decreased. Also, MS in combination with XG and PE led to increase the G′ values of spreads in comparison with ALG and LBG. Moreover, microstructural and stability observations revealed that the spreads prepared with 0.1% XG-0.2% LBG significantly had the highest oiling out.  相似文献

Scaling laws, determined by dimensional analysis, have been used to make experimental predictions of constitutive shear-flow rheology. This study aimed to scale and model the flow curves of various suspensions consisting of xanthan gum (0.5, 1 wt%) and WPI (2, 4 wt%), and to determine the best-scaling law and rheological model. The scaling methods were relative viscosity, Péclet number, and Reynolds number. When the apparent viscosity is reduced relative to the viscosity of the medium at zero-shear rate, a distinct reduced flow curve is obtained, regardless of xanthan and WPI concentrations. This study tough to develop a technique of simplifying complex non-Newtonian flow curves and, therefore, predicting the rheological flow curves and fluid mechanics when different modifiers are added to food suspensions. The flow behavior of all samples was successfully modeled with the power law, Ellis, and Cross models; the power law model best described the flow behavior of dispersions. Results showed that both G′ and G″ increased with xanthan and WPI. However, viscoelastic behavior was mainly governed by the xanthan gum content.  相似文献

A polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was developed to differentiate the thickening agents locust bean gum (LBG) and the cheaper guar gum in finished food products. Universal primers for amplification of the intergenic spacer region between trnL 3' (UAA) exon and trnF (GAA) gene in the chloroplast (cp) genome and subsequent restriction analysis were applied to differentiate guar gum and LBG. The presence of <5% (w/w) guar gum powder added to LBG powder was detectable. Based on data obtained from sequencing this intergenic spacer region, a second PCR method for the specific detection of guar gum DNA was also developed. This assay detected guar gum powder in LBG in amounts as low as 1% (w/w). Both methods successfully detected guar gum and/or LBG in ice cream stabilizers and in foodstuffs, such as dairy products, ice cream, dry seasoning mixes, a finished roasting sauce, and a fruit jelly product, but not in products with highly degraded DNA, such as tomato ketchup and sterilized chocolate cream. Both methods detected guar gum and LBG in ice cream and fresh cheese at levels <0.1%.  相似文献

A gas chromatographic method was evaluated for the determination of food grade gums in dairy products, salad dressings and meat sauces. The gums studied were tragacanth, karaya, ghatti, carob, guar, arabic and xanthan gum. The extraction method included removal of fat followed by starch degradation then precipitation of protein. The isolated gums were hydrolysed with trifluoroacetic acid and the resulting neutral monosaccharides converted to their aldonitrile acetate derivatives for determination by gas chromatography. Recoveries from thirteen different commodities averaged 85%. However, the recovery of guar gum from ice cream and cold pack cheese was 42 and 50%, respectively. In a comparison of enzyme hydrolysis and iodine complexation for the removal of starch the former was simpler and provided cleaner extracts than the iodine treatment. Both gave similar results.  相似文献

The anionic, cationic and nonionic polymeric flocculants endowed with several distinguished characteristics are being increasingly applied for the treatment of industrial effluents, municipal and wastewater. For the treatment of highly negatively charged particle suspensions, cationic flocculants are more efficient. A new route to guar gum derivatives bearing cationic groups has been developed. A series of cationic guar gums (Cat GG) have been developed by incorporating a cationic moiety N- (3- Chloro-2- hydroxypropyl) trimethyl ammonium chloride (CHPTAC) onto the backbone of guar gum in presence of NaOH. The various grades of cationic guar gum have been characterized by elemental analysis, FTIR spectroscopy and intrinsic viscosity measurement. The flocculation characteristics of these cationic guar gums have been evaluated in silica suspension by jar test. It has been found that among the various grades of cationic guar gums, the one with longer CHPTAC chains shows better performance. The flocculation characteristics of this best performing cationic guar are compared with those of various commercially available flocculants in silica suspension. Their rheological investigations have also been undertaken.  相似文献

The physical and rheological properties of oil in water model emulsion systems containing Iranian tragacanth gum (TG) (0.5, 1 g/100 ml emulsions), whey protein isolate (WPI) (2, 4 g/100 ml emulsions), and oleic acid (5, 10 ml/100 ml emulsions) were investigated for droplet-size distribution, creaming index, and rheological properties of emulsions. The shear-thinning behavior of all dispersions was modeled using power law, Cross, and Ellis models. The power law model described the flow behavior of dispersions for its lowest standard error (0.29) and highest determination coefficient (R2) (0.99). Rheological investigation showed that both loss (G″) and storage (G′) modules increased as gum and oil content increased. Delta degree was 0.1 and increased as frequency increased, indicating that liquid-like viscose behavior dominated solid-like elastic behavior. Droplet-size distribution was measured by light scattering and microscopic observations revealed a flocculated system. Gum, WPI, and oil contents decreased the emulsion creaming index with gum concentration having the greatest effect.  相似文献

The foam stability (drainage half-life) of α-olefin sulfonate (AOS) with partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide (HPAM) or xanthan gum (XG) solution was evaluated by the Warring Blender method. With the increase of polymer (HPAM or XG) concentration, foam stability of the surfactant–polymer complexes increased, and the drainage half-life of AOS-XG foam was higher than that of AOS-HPAM foam at the same polymer and surfactant concentration. With the addition of polymer (HPAM or XG), the viscoelasticity of bulk solution and the liquid film were enhanced. The viscoelasticity of AOS-XG bulk solution and liquid film were both higher than that of AOS-HPAM counterparts.   相似文献

The release behavior of prednisolone from hydrogels prepared with xanthan and locust bean gums was investigated. Newly developed equipment was employed in order to increase the gum concentration in the hydrogels. The apparent release rate of prednisolone from the hydrogels decreased with increasing gum concentration, suggesting that the diffusion of drug molecules was mainly controlled by the density of the three-dimensional network structure in the matrix. The effect of additives such as glycerin and sucrose on the release behavior of prednisolone was also investigated in detail. Drug release was significantly lowered by the addition of these compounds to these hydrogels. A linear relation was observed between the apparent release rate of prednisolone and microscopic viscosity of the hydrogels. These results indicated that the drug release could be controlled not only by the density of the network structure but also by the microscopic viscosity of the hydrogels.  相似文献

Summary: The sol‐gel transition of one thermoreversible gelling mixture made of xanthan gum and locust bean gum has been studied by using in situ time‐resolved dynamic light scattering (DLS) and measuring the spin‐lattice relaxation time T1 of several protons. A critical dynamical behavior was observed near the sol‐gel transition, which is characterized by the presence of power‐law spectra over four decades of the delay time in the time‐intensity correlation function g2(t)−1 ∼ t−μ at 48 °C. The increase in T1 with increasing temperature becomes steeper at 50 °C indicating a significant change in the local mobility of one anomeric proton of the xanthan side chain and the anomeric protons of the locust bean gum mannose backbone.

Temperature dependence of the spin‐lattice relaxation time T1 for the equatorial anomeric proton of the mannopyranosic unit located next to the main chain of the xanthan.  相似文献

The monosaccharide constituents of plant gums were separated by capillary electrophoresis at pH 12.1 and detected with indirect UV absorbance. The plant gums investigated were gum arabic, gum acacia, gum tragacanth, cherry gum and locust bean gum (carob gum). The monosaccharides obtained after hydrolysis with 2M trifluoroacetic acid and lyophilisation of the hydrolysate were arabinose, galactose, mannose, rhamnose, xylose, fucose, and glucose, and the two sugar acids galacturonic and glucuronic acid, in accordance with the literature. They were separated in a background electrolyte consisting of NaOH to adjust the pH, 20 mM 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylic acid as chromophore for detection and 0.5 mM cetyltrimethylammonium bromide as additive to reverse the electroosmotic flow. Based on their electropherograms, the plant gums could be identified by their typical composition (depicted in a decision scheme) as follows: a peak of glucuronic acid, together with that of rhamnose, is indicative for gum arabic. Peaks of galacturonic acid and fucose point to gum tragacanth. Locust bean gum shows a major peak for mannose (with the concomitant galactose peak in ratio 4-1), whereas a glucuronic acid and a mannose peak together with a prominent arabinose peak indicates cherry gum. The method was applied to identify the plant gums in samples like watercolours and in several paint layers like gum tempera or those with egg white or drying oils as additives. Artificial aging experiments of thin layers of gum arabic on paper or glass carried out with UV-A radiation (366 nm) did not result in changes of the saccharide patterns, in contrast to the simultaneously conducted aging of a drying oil layer.  相似文献

The role of multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) as a solid surfactant in highly concentrated water-in-oil emulsions was investigated. MWCNT were dispersed in the oil phase. These suspensions are viscoplastic fluids with the yield stress increasing by more than 1000 times with addition of 2% MWCNT, which demonstrates intensive “structurizing” ability. After emulsion preparation, MWCNT were concentrated at the interface, stabilizing emulsions. The dependence of the inversion point on MWCNT concentration was found. Emulsions containing up to 94 wt% of the aqueous phase can be prepared only when MWCNT is combined with conventional surfactant. Rheological properties of such compositions were measured. It was established that emulsions stabilized by a combined surfactant were more stable in comparison to conventional surfactant stabilized emulsion.  相似文献

The interaction of surfactants dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (DTAB), cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), and p-tert-octylphenoxypolyoxyethylene (9.5) ether (TX-100) with guar (Gr), carboxymethylhydroxypropyl guar (CMHPG), diutan (Dn), and xanthan (Xn) gums has been studied employing conductometry, tensiometry, microcalorimetry, viscometry, and atomic force microscopy (AFM) techniques. Both weak and strong interactions were observed. CTAB interacted stronger than DTAB with the gums. The surfactant-gum interaction process was enhanced by the presence of borate ions in the solution; the borate ion itself also manifested interaction with the surfactants comparable with that of water-soluble polymers polyvinyl alcohol, polyoxyethylene, and so forth. Viscometric results supported configurational changes of the gum molecules by interaction with surfactants. The geometry of the pure gums and their CTAB interacted products in the dried states was ascertained from AFM measurements; spherical and prolate shapes were observed for pure gums, and distorted states were observed for their surfactant complexed species. Detailed topological features of these entities were ascertained.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to find newly structured biopolymer blends bearing those adjustable features able to produce innovative materials. Apart from cellulose derivatives (cellulose carbamate and carboxymethyl cellulose), mannans (guar gum, locust bean gum, and tragacanth gum), xylan, starch (cationized), ι-carrageenan, and xanthan were chosen as blend polysaccharides for cellulose as matrix. In order to study their integration into the cellulose skeleton, fibers were shaped from three different solvents: NaOH by a special wet-spinning process, as well as N-methylmorpholine-N-oxide (NMMO) and 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate (EMIMac) via Lyocell technology. The structure and morphologies of the fibers were analyzed by X-ray wide-angle scattering and atomic force microscopy. Hydrophilic/hydrophobic properties were determined by means of a contact angle, as well as moisture content and water retention values, while the surface properties throughout zeta-potential measurements. Being very different processes, the wet spinning in NaOH solution and the dry–wet spinning are deeply impacted by the types of solvent and polysaccharide. The X-ray results for NMMO fibers revealed the highest orientation compared with EMIMac having the lowest orientation of NaOH fibrous types. AFM images also show the lowest surface roughnesses for NMMO and EMIMac fibers. The moisture content and water retention values support these trends, while the water contact angle results show insignificant differences between the samples from EMIMac and NaOH, even though the values calculated for NMMO fibers were the lowest.  相似文献
