lycopene is a natural and dominant pigment in tomato which today itsextraction enhancement from tomato and tomato products is trying. in this study atfirst wed use pectinase at 25, 30, 35 and 40 ml/kg concentration at 0, 30, 60, 90,120 and 180 effecting time in 55 0c constant temperature incubation. then beforeextraction half of samples were washed with 94% ethanol at 60 0c for 5 second. ithas ...

Recently, it has been suggested that pectinases could be used to hydrolyze pectin in biorefineries based on pectin-rich agro-industrial wastes. However, for this to be viable, the cost of their production would need to be lowered significantly. In fact, over the last few decades, there have been many attempts to improve pectinase production by existing strains or to screen for new strains from ...

Pectinase was produced by solidstate fermentation utilizing coffee pulp with Aspergillus niger CFR 305. The exogenous pectinase contained 7539 ±70 U/g of enzyme activity. Further the pectinase enzyme was partially decolorized with activated carbon and 80 % recovery of enzyme activity was obtained. The optimum pH and temperature of the crude decolorized pectinase was 4.5 and 50°C respectively. T...

In this study, complete purification, characterization, and immobilization of polygalacturonase (pectinase) from Penicillium notatum were carried out to achieve an economical suitable alternative for industrial fruit juice clarification. Biosynthesis was under pre-optimized conditions employing solid-state fermentation at a pilot scale using wheat bran. The enzyme subjected series steps purific...

BACKGROUND Bisphenol A (BPA) is used widely to manufacture food container linings. Mouse models suggest exposure to BPA might increase allergic inflammation. OBJECTIVES We hypothesized that BPA exposure, as assessed based on urinary BPA concentrations, would be associated with increased odds of wheeze and asthma and increased fraction of exhaled nitric oxide (Feno) values in children. METHO...

About thirty-five percent of coffee pulp waste is pectin. It may potentially be a source to used in the bioprocessing industry. For example, it can as substrate produce pectinase from microorganisms under solid-state fermentation (SSF). In this investigation, an isolated fungus VTM4 with density 10 7 spores/mL was grown on medium-based, and after 0-168 hours incubation at 30 °C, activity detect...

Improving the quantity and quality of olive oil extraction is considered crucial for producers not only in Jordan but also worldwide. The present study aimed to enhance yield from fruits without compromising its by applying an enzymatic treatment technique during malaxation stage process.
 enzymes that were used this cellulase, pectinase, a mixture both at ratio (1:1). Each there was added...
