A Soluble Polysaccharide from Soybean Seeds and its Components.

Microencapsulation of linoleic acid with low- and high-molecular-weight components of soluble soybean polysaccharide and its oxidation process.

Soluble soybean polysaccharide (SSPS) was fractionated into its low- (LMW) and high-molecular-weight (HMW) components to test their antioxidative and emulsifying properties. Linoleic acid was emulsified with an aqueous solution of SSPS, HMW, a mixture of LMW or HMW with maltodextrin, or maltodextrin alone. The emulsions prepared with SSPS, HWM and the mixture of HMW with maltodextrin were stabl...

Xxix. the Reserve Polysaccharide of the Seeds of Fenugreek: Its

Polysaccharide structure of degraded glucomannan from Abrus precatorius Linn. seeds.

Degraded glucomannan was isolated from Abrus precatorius Linn. seed polysaccharide (Papilionaceae). Acid hydrolysis and methylation studies produced certain degraded methyl sugars as, 2, 3, 6-tri-O-methyl-D-glucose and 2, 3, 6-tri-O-methyl-D-mannose in 1:4 molar ratio. On the basis of hydrolysis and methylation experiments, a polysaccharide structure has been assigned to the degraded glucomanna...

Oxidation of linoleic acid encapsulated with soluble soybean polysaccharide by spray-drying.

Linoleic acid was encapsulated with a soluble soybean polysaccharide, gum arabic, or a mixture of both together with maltodextrin, and the oxidation process of the encapsulated acid was measured at 37 degrees C and at a relative humidity of 12%. The soybean polysaccharide was more effective for encapsulating the acid and suppressing the oxidation of the encapsulated acid than gum arabic. A mixt...

Soluble Carbohydrates in Soybean

Soybean seeds accumulate soluble carbohydrates throughout development and maturation. Soluble carbohydrates may have important roles in seed germination, seed desiccation tolerance, and cold stress tolerance. The analysis of soluble carbohydrates in soybean seeds and other plant parts at various growth stages (Obendorf et al., 1998b & 2009; Kosina et al., 2009), under environmental stresses (Bl...
