ENZYMATIC EXTRACTION OF PECTIN FROM OPUNTIA FICUS-INDICA CLADODES
Acta Horticulturae, 2015Within studies about valorisation of agricultural and agro-industrial wastes, in the past the authors have worked on the extraction of mucilage and pectin from cladodes of prickly pear cultivated in Sicily. Mucilage and pectin are hydrocolloids of considerable commercial interest, as gelling, emulsifiers and thickening agents and are used mainly in the

Application of Opuntia ficus-indica in bioremediation of wastewaters. A critical review
Journal of Environmental Management, 2016Heavy metal ion, pesticide and dye wastewaters cause severe ecological contamination with conventional treatment methods proving inadequate, unsuccessful or expensive to apply. Several biomaterials have recently been explored for the biosorption and biocoagulation-flocculation of pollutants from wastewaters.

Aetiology of Opuntia ficus‐indica malformations and stunting disease
Annals of Applied Biology, 2006AbstractThe phytoplasma aetiology of epidemic stunting of cladodes and stunted growth observed in a cactus pear plantation in Carlentini (Sicily, Italy) was investigated with graft inoculation trials and PCR/restriction fragment length polymorphism analyses of 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene and S3 ribosomal protein gene.

BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITIES OF OPUNTIA FICUS-INDICA (L.) MILL. (CACTACEAE) CLADODES
Acta Horticulturae, 2002This study has the aim to exploit the Opuntia ficus indica (L.) Mill. culture widespread in Sicily, also with the employment of the waste matter (cladodes and unmarketable fruits). Therefore a biological screening on lopping cladodes was performed. Homogenized and lyophilized cladodes of O.
