Reactive Extraction of Tartaric Acid

Significance of urinary tartaric acid.

Recovery of Propionic Acid using Reactive Extraction

Propionic acid is a carboxylic acid produced by fermentation and widely used in chemical, pharmaceutical and food industries. It is used primarily for animal feed preservation, including hay, silage, and grains, and in human foods (mainly in baked goods and cheeses). The growing demand of this acid draws attention towards a more economical energy efficient technology. The conventional methods f...

Extraction of pectin from pomelo (Citrus maxima) peels with the assistance of microwave and tartaric acid

Pectin is a component of the plant cell and can be found in the primary cell wall and the middle lamella of plant tissues. Currently, pectin is a very important raw material, especially in the food and the pharmaceutical industries. There are several ways to extract pectin from different materials and solvents. One way to synthesize pectin is from the extraction of pomelo peel and this research...

Tartaric Acid Dehydrogenase Activity in Higher Plants1,2

Although the tartrates have been considered as possible metabolites in higher plants since the initial work of Pasteur in 1848, surprisingly little is known of their actual physiological significance. Vickery and Palmer (35) have briefly reviewed the history of (+)-tartrate in plants, including the problems of identification and of nomenclature. They conclude that (+)-tartrate is an uncommon pl...

l-Asparagine–l-tartaric acid (1/1)

In the title compound, C(4)H(8)N(2)O(3)·C(4)H(6)O(6), the amino acid mol-ecule exists as a zwitterion and the carb-oxy-lic acid in an un-ionized state. The tartaric acid mol-ecules are linked into layers parallel to the ab plane by O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The amino acid mol-ecules are also linked into layers parallel to the ab plane by N-H⋯O and C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The alternating tartaric acid...
