Optimized extraction of a lectin from Crataeva tapia bark using AOT in isooctane reversed micelles

Abstract: 2.2. Preparation of extract C. tapia bark was collected in the region of Recife city (Pernambuco, Brazil) and the extract was obtained by pulverizing dried bark [10% (w/v) in 150 mM NaCl] followed by agitation overnight at 4 8C. Afterwards, the extract was filtered through

“…High amount of salt promotes the interaction of salt ion with the surfactant, which in turn reduces the interaction between surfactant head and biomolecules leading to reduced debye length. This phenomenon results in the reduction of interaction between biomolecule and the surfactant head group and is termed as electrostatic screening effect 18, 29‐31…”

“…Further increase in surfactant concentration resulted in reduced activity recovery and extraction efficiency. The increase in extraction can be attributed to the fact that the increase in surfactant concentration up to a certain extent results in an increase in the number of reverse micelles 31, 32, 33. Beyond which extraction capacity decreased due to micellar clustering, which decreased the interfacial area available to the target biomolecule 32…”

“…A protein from the Crataeva tapia bark has been purified using reversed micelles in isooctane [16] and through chromatographic processes [17]. Named CrataBL ( Crata eva tapia B ark L ectin), this protein was shown to possess some specificity for binding glucose and galactose [17].…”

“…As a rule, authors verified the following advantages in protein extraction by reverse micelles: surfactants and organic solvents may be repetitively used after recovering the same, with reduced extraction costs, and polar sites of reverse micelles maintain activities which are characteristics of dissolved proteins. Nascimento et al (2008) optimized extraction of lectin from the bark of Crataeva tapia from a crude extract using anionic surfactant sodium bis (2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate (AOT) in isooctane reversed micelles. The back-extraction to a final aqueous phase was made by adding butanol.…”
