Preparation of Pectin Aerogels From Flaxseed and Evaluation of Their Potential as Hemostatic Agents: Water Absorption Characteristics

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Flaxseed has been used extensively to extract flaxseed oil and drugs used for breast cancer treatment. Flaxseed contains a considerable amount of pectin in addition. We extracted pectin from flaxseed and prepared pectin aerogels by the steps of de‐esterification, gelation, solvent exchange and supercritical CO2 drying.

Impact of tomato variety and homogenization pressure on in vitro lipid digestion and lycopene bioaccessibility in tomato emulsions

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Tomato variety and processing impact lycopene bioaccessibility. Tomato emulsions with high pectin content decreased the in vitro lipid digestion and negatively affected lycopene bioaccessibility. High pressure homogenization may enhance the release of lycopene into emulsion oil droplets, but it may also reduce the transfer of lycopene into the micellar
