Rubber and latex extraction processes for Taraxacum kok-saghyz
نویسندگان
چکیده
Natural rubber (NR) has unique properties which are unmatched by synthetic and is used in over 50,000 products. The only commercial source of NR the Para tree (Hevea brasiliensis) insecure because increasing demand, price instability, high labor costs, trade politics, competition with other crops, deforestation bans preventing new H. brasiliensis acreage, disease. Taraxacum kok-saghyz, root dandelion, produces quite similar to that from brasiliensis. One major challenges turning T. kok-saghyz into an industrial rubber-bearing crop lack environmentally friendly cost-effective process for extraction proven at scale. Rubber present as latex solid threads. If form not required, better option recover all after drying roots. This review summarizes (flow blender methods) (wet milling, enzyme digestion, solvent extraction, dry milling processes) their effects on yield quality (molecular weight purity). current future perspectives improving processes discussed.

Recovering Taraxacum kok-saghyz Rodin. via Seed and Callus Culture
This experiment was performed to optimize the medium for tissue culture of Taraxacum kok-saghyz Rodin. Different tissue culture approaches such as shoot regeneration from seed, callus formation from leaf explants and plant regeneration from callus were investigated in this study. All the explants were cultured on MS basal medium supplemented with 20g/l sucrose, 7g/l agar and different plant gro...
متن کاملPopulation Genetics of the Rubber-Producing Russian Dandelion (Taraxacum kok-saghyz)
The Russian dandelion, Taraxacum kok-saghyz (TKS), is a perennial species native to Central Asia that produces high quality, natural rubber. Despite its potential to help maintain a stable worldwide rubber supply, little is known about genetic variation in this species. To facilitate future germplasm improvement efforts, we developed simple-sequence repeat (SSR) markers from available expressed...
متن کاملQuantitative Analysis of Anti-Hevea brasiliensis Antibody Cross-Reactivity against Taraxacum Kok-Saghyz Latex Proteins Demonstrates Significantly Reduced Antibody Recognition
The annual plant Taraxacum kok-saghyz, commonly called Russian dandelion, has recently gained commercial attention as an alternative source to the rubber tree, Hevea brasiliensis, for natural rubber latex. While producing rubber of equivalent quality, the potential application of TKS latex for hypoallergenic products remains to be determined. In order to quantify the allergenicity of TKS latex ...
متن کاملA Method of Increasing the Rate of Seed Germination of Taraxacum Kok-saghyz.
The germination of kok-saghyz seed is a gradual process, the first seedlings pushing through in a few days, the rest appearing successively during a period of several weeks. Obviously, surface soil moisture must be maintained high throughout this period if a good stand is to be established, especially since the seeds are small and have to be sown very shallow. Since such ideal conditions seldom...
متن کاملExtraction and characterization of latex and natural rubber from rubber-bearing plants.
Consecutive extraction of latex and natural rubber from the roots of rubber-bearing plants such as Taraxacum kok-saghyz (TKS), Scorzonera tau-saghyz (STS), and Scorzonera Uzbekistanica (SU) were carried out. Latex extraction was carried via two methods: Blender method and Flow method. The results of latex extraction were compared. Cultivated rubber-bearing plants contained slightly higher latex...
