Industrial gums from plants: Guar and chia
Economic Botany, 1982Water soluble gums of plant origin represent an enormous quantity of industrial material supplied by plant growing areas in most parts of the world (Whistler, 1973). Gums come from a variety of plants and are separated by a variety of methods. Their use began before recorded history, starting in all probability as thickeners for foods in gruels, long ...

The Analysis of Plant Gums and Mucilages
1955The gums and mucilages are hydrophilic colloids of high molecular weight. Some are completely soluble in water, forming viscous solutions of gels, others swell and absorb considerable quantities of solvent without dissolving. They are not soluble in the common organic solvents.

Graphene Oxide—Plant Gum Nanocomposites for Sustainable Applications
2020Nanotechnology is increasingly being promoted to adopt “greener” technology that will improve the environmental performance of existing industries, reduce consumption of resources and energy, and enable the environmentally benign economic expansion. A novel approach in the field of sustainable/green nanotechnology is to develop advanced bio-composite ...

Hydrolysis of plant seed gums by microwave irradiation
Carbohydrate Polymers, 2003Abstract Under microwave irradiation (MW), the seed gums, guar and Ipomoea quamoclit were hydrolyzed to constituent monosaccharides and oligosaccharides in very mild conditions and short reaction time. Under MW both the seed gums could be completely hydrolyzed using very dilute acid (0.00625N H2SO4) within two minutes.

Microwave-promoted hydrolysis of plant seed gums on alumina support
Carbohydrate Research, 2006Using a catalytic amount of potassium persulfate (1.48 x 10(-4)M), eight different seed gums were fully hydrolyzed on alumina support under microwave irradiation. The hydrolysis time varied between 1.33 and 2.33 min depending upon the seed gum structure. The used solid support could be easily separated from the hydrolyzates and recycled. However, under
