Isolation and characterization of tamarind seed (Tamarindus indica L.) polysaccharide.
The alcohol-insoluble fraction from the water extract of tamarind seed meal, constituting 60 to 65 per cent of the husked kernel, has been described as a rich source of pectin (l-3). Although it forms a firm jelly in the presence of appropriate amounts of sugar and acid (1,4) and has been suggested for commercial use as a substitute for pectin (5), it has been shown in preliminary communication...
متن کاملKnowledge, attitudes and practices in tamarind (Tamarindus indica L) use and conservation in Eastern Uganda
BACKGROUND Tamarindus indica L is one of the indigenous fruit tree species that traditionally contributes to food security and ecosystem stability in sub-Saharan Africa. We hypothesized that the indigenous people of Eastern Uganda have used T. indica for generations and developed practices that promote its conservation and therefore we expected that they possess an elaborate indigenous knowledg...
متن کاملEffects of sodium benzoate on storage stability of previously improved beverage from tamarind (Tamarindus indica L.)
The effect of sodium benzoate on the quality attributes of improved tamarind beverage during storage was investigated. Tamarind beverages were produced according to a previously reported improved method, with or without chemical preservatives (100 mg/100 mL sodium benzoate). Tamarind beverage produced according to traditional processing method served as the control. The tamarind beverages were ...
متن کاملSix-Month Chronic Toxicity Study of Tamarind Pulp (Tamarindus indica L.) Water Extract
Tamarind water extract has been shown to demonstrate an anti-obesity effect. In this research, long-term use of tamarind pulp water extract safety was evaluated. Tamarind pulp was extracted by reflux method, followed by freeze-drying to obtain dry extract. Wistar rats were divided into six groups, with 20 animals of each sex per group. The control group and satellite control group received carb...
متن کاملEvaluation of Structure and Assembly of Xyloglucan from Tamarind Seed (Tamarindus indica L.) with Atomic Force Microscopy
The role of xyloglucan (XG) in the cell wall of plants and its technological usability depends on several factors, pertaining to molecular structure. Therefore, the goal of this study was to evaluate the nano-structure and self-assembly of XG by atomic force microscopy (AFM). As the model, a non-modified xyloglucan from a tamarind seed (Tamarindus indica L.) was used. Samples were minimally pro...
