Nonthermal Extraction Technologies of Polysaccharides: Principles, Techniques, Characterization, and Applications

Bol

Nonthermal Extraction Technologies of Polysaccharides: Principles, Techniques, Characterization, and Applications explores cutting-edge nonthermal extraction technologies, including ultrasound, microwave, high-pressure, pulsed electric field, enzymatic extraction methods, and cold plasma technology and their effects on polysaccharide biofunctionalities, such as antioxidant and antimicrobial properties and potential applications. With an examination of the therapeutic benefits associated with these compounds, including anti-cancer, antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and anti-obesity properties, this book aspires to highlight advanced techniques to significantly enhance polysaccharide yield, bioactivity, and purity when compared to traditional approaches. The initial chapters introduce the fundamental structures, sources, and importance of polysaccharides, thus setting the stage for a deeper understanding of their functionality and chemical characterization. By offering both theoretical frameworks and practical guidance, this book equips professionals with the knowledge required to effectively incorporate polysaccharides into health-promoting products for advancing research and applications in the evolving landscape of functional foods and biomedical innovation.
