Microwave-assisted acid extraction of high-methoxyl kinnow (Citrus reticulata) peels pectin: Process, techno-functionality, characterization and life cycle assessment.

ABSTRACT: The present study assessed the efficacy of kinnow peel pectin-acetic acid extraction using microwave heating at 110 °C, pH 2.2 for 10 min with a 1:2 ratio supernatant to ethanol for higher yield. The kinnow peel was freeze dried and grinded to fine powder for pectin extraction. The microwave extracted (ME) kinnow pectin showed 833 mg equivalent weight, 7.44 % methoxyl content, 66.67 % degree of esterification, 63.15 % galacturonic acid content and evinced higher purity than commercial citrus pectin. ME kinnow pectin exhibited shear thinning behaviour while higher apparent viscosity (Pa. s) at 20 % concentration. The ME kinnow pectin showed characteristic functional groups and a less crystalline structure as deduced from FT-IR, SEM and XRD respectively, and a higher thermal decomposition analysed from TGA. Further, life cycle assessment (LCA) predicted that the ethanol and acetic acid were major contributors toward climate change in this study. ME kinnow pectin has the potential to be used as a commercial pectin in various food applications.

Project description:Citrus is a globally consumed fruit with great popularity. Mandarin (Citrus reticulata cv. 'Shatangju') is a local variety, and its planting area and yield are the greatest regarding fruit tree planting in Guangdong Province, China. However, its resistance to Huanglongbing (HLB) is weak. After infection by HLB, the fruits cannot develop normally. In this study, four kinds of fruits were classified as HBG, XQG, ZQG, and DHG, according to the color of their peels. The metabolomes of the three abnormally colored groups (HBG, XQG, and ZQG) and the normally colored group (DHG) were compared using a UPLC-QQQ-MS-based metabolomics approach. In total, 913 metabolites were identified and classified into 23 different categories, including phenylpropanoids and flavonoids; among them, 215 (HBG, 177; XQG, 124; and ZQG, 62) metabolites showed differential accumulation in the three comparison groups (HBG/XQG/ZQG versus DHG). A total of 2 unique metabolites, O-caffeoyl maltotriose and myricetin were detected only in DHG samples. When comparing HBG with DHG, there were 109 decreased and 68 increased metabolites; comparing XQG with DHG, there were 88 decreased and 36 increased metabolites; comparing ZQG with DHG, 41 metabolites were decreased, and 21 metabolites were increased. Metabolic pathway enrichment analysis of these differential metabolites showed significant enrichment of the "phenylpropanoid biosynthesis" pathway in all comparison groups. The hierarchical cluster analysis of the differential metabolites of the four groups showed a clear grouping patterns. The relative contents of three phenylpropanoids, four flavonoids, two alkaloids, one anthocyanin, and two other metabolites were significantly different between each comparison group. This study might provide fundamental insight for the isolation and identification of functional compounds from the peels of citrus fruit infected with HLB and for in-depth research on the effect of HLB on the formation of fruits pigment and the development of HLB-resistant citrus varieties.
