Microwave Assisted Extraction of Pectin from Grapefruit Peel and Optimization of Extraction Conditions

In this study, pectin was obtained from dried grapefruit peels by microwave assisted extraction and the extraction conditions were optimized for pectin yield. Response surface method was used for the optimization and optimum extraction conditions were determined as 30 ml/g solvent solid ratio, 90 s and pH 1. The yield of pectin extracted at these conditions was found to be 20.93% and the properties of the extracted pectin were compared to pectin obtained by conventional extraction. FT-IR analysis was performed for both pectins. Pectin obtained by microwave assisted extraction was compared with pectin obtained by the conventional method and their structures were found to be similar to each others. It was determined that the pectin obtained had high degree of esterification.

Greyfurt Kabuklarından Mikrodalga Destekli Pektin Ekstraksiyonu ve Ekstraksiyon Koşullarının Optimizasyonu

Bu çalışmada kurutulmuş greyfurt kabuklarından mikrodalga destekli ekstraksiyon ile pektin elde edilmiş ve ekstraksiyon koşulları pektin verimi için optimize edilmiştir. Optimizasyon için yanıt yüzey yöntemi kullanılmış ve optimum ekstraksiyon koşulları 30 ml/g, solvent katı oranı 90 s ve pH 1 olarak belirlenmiştir. Bu koşullarda gerçekleştrilen ekstraksiyonda verim %20,93 olarak bulunmuş olup, elde edilen pektinin özellikleri klasik yöntemle elde edilen pektinle karşılaştırılmıştır. Pektinlerde FT-IR analizi yapılmış, mikrodalga destekli ekstraksiyon ile elde edilen pektin, klasik yöntemle elde edilen pektin ile karşılaştırılmış ve yapıları benzer bulunmuştur. Elde edilen pektinin yüksek esterleşme derecesine sahip olduğu tespit edilmiştir.
