Area of Science:

  • Biotechnology
  • Food Science
  • Green Chemistry

Background:

  • Apple pomace is a rich source of valuable polysaccharides like xyloglucan.
  • Conventional extraction methods for xyloglucan can be time-consuming and less efficient.
  • Developing sustainable and effective extraction techniques is crucial for valorizing food waste.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) as a superior alternative for xyloglucan isolation from apple pomace.
  • To compare the efficiency and speed of UAE against conventional extraction methods.
  • To optimize UAE parameters for maximizing xyloglucan yield using response surface methodology.

Main Methods:

  • Indirect sonication in an ultrasound cleaning bath was used for xyloglucan extraction.
  • Response surface methodology (RSM) was employed to study the effects of key variables.
  • Variables investigated included liquid:solid ratio, KOH concentration, and extraction time.

Main Results:

  • Ultrasound-assisted extraction was approximately three times faster than the conventional method.
  • The liquid:solid ratio was identified as the most significant variable influencing xyloglucan yield.
  • Optimized conditions (34.4:1 liquid:solid ratio, 3.3 M KOH, 2.5 h) yielded significant results.

Conclusions:

  • Ultrasound-assisted extraction offers a faster and more effective approach for isolating xyloglucan from apple pomace.
  • Optimization using RSM successfully identified conditions for maximizing xyloglucan recovery.
  • This study highlights the potential of UAE in the sustainable valorization of apple pomace.
