Study of pectin olygomers
Original language description
Pectins are complex polysaccharides found in the cell walls of higher plants. They are commonly used in the food industry as gelling agents, thickeners, texturizers, emulsifiers and stabilizers, in the pharmaceutical industry because pectins reduce bloodcholesterol, prolong gastric emptying half-time and promote sustained release of medicine, and in other industrial applications. Although pectin is utilized in so many areas, its applicability can be even widen by fragmentation and derivatisation. Hydrolysis of pectin and pectin derivatives (some are totally insoluble) enhance solubility in water. Pectin is a soluble fibre and it is not absorbable in small gut. However, pectin hydrolysis yields smaller molecular weight molecules, which are more absorbable. Pectic oligosaccharides can consequently compete with natural ligands of galectins and inhibit the metastatic process.This project deals with the preparation, characterisation and modification of pectin fragments. Oligosaccharide fra
