Extraction of pectic polysaccharides from sugar-beet cell walls
Previous methods of extracting pectin from sugar-beet have used pulp as the starting material. As the temperature and pressure of the pulping process may modify the architecture of the cell wall, we have adapted a relatively non-disruptive method to characterise cell wall material (CWM) isolated directly from the sugar-beet. Cell walls from mature sugar-beets (Beta vulgaris L Aztec) were sequen...
متن کاملFoam formation in biogas plants caused by anaerobic digestion of sugar beet.
The use of sugar beet in anaerobic digestion (AD) during biogas production can lead to process upsets such as excessive foaming in fermenters. In the present study, foam formation in sugar beet-fed digestates was studied in foaming tests. The increasing disintegration grade of sugar beet was observed to have a promoting effect on foaming in the digestate but did not affect the biogas yield. Che...
متن کاملPlant Pectin Methylesterase Treatments Dramatically Reduce Water-binding in Sugar Beet Pulp via Calcium Crosslinking
We are investigating a novel application of a thermally-tolerant plant pectin methylesterase (TTPME) to improve energy efficiency in sugar beet processing. Sucrose diffusion from cossettes occurs in water heated to about 70°C, the optimal temperature for TT-PME activity. Drying pulp is necessary to stabilize it for storage and commercialization as animal feed, but this consumes up to 30% of tot...
متن کاملEffect of Nitrogen and Weed Interference on the Quality and Quantity of Sugar Beet (Beta vulgaris L.)
In order to determine the effect of weeds interference and nitrogen on the sugar beet growth and yield, a field study was performed in the 2010 growing season as a split plot design based on RCBD with three replications in Hana region (Semirom, Esfahan). Treatments were four levels of nitrogen from urea source as the main factor (0, 70, 150 and 210 kg ha-1) and weed interference at five levels ...
متن کاملAcetylesterase-mediated deacetylation of pectin impairs cell elongation, pollen germination, and plant reproduction.
Pectin is a major component of the primary cell wall of higher plants. Some galacturonyl residues in the backbone of pectinaceous polysaccharides are often O-acetylated at the C-2 or C-3 position, and the resulting acetylesters change dynamically during the growth and development of plants. The processes involve both enzymatic acetylation and deacetylation. Through genomic sequence analysis, we...
