Characterisation of fiber obtained from pumpkin (cucumis moschata duch.) mesocarp through enzymatic treatment
Cell wall-enriched pumpkin (Cucumis moschata Duch.) powder was submitted to enzymatic hydrolysis by cellulase or hemicellulase in order to evaluate the performance of these cell wall-degrading enzymes on that substrate. Different enzyme-substrate ratios were evaluated and the effect exerted by the b...

Different enzyme-substrate ratios were evaluated and the effect exerted by the buffer on cell wall polysaccharides. Cellulase produced the release of pectin macromolecules which include homogalacturonans side chains, the rhamnogalacturonan I core and rhamnogalacturonan II, in conjunction with xylogalacturonans.

Enzymatic hydrolysis as well as buffer extraction produced fiber-products with an important thickening effect of aqueous systems. This effect was smaller as the ratio enzyme-substrate was increased and, in general, the fiber fractions isolated produced an in vitro glucose diffusion retardation. © 2007 SAGE Publications.
