Simultaneous Determination of Neutral Sugars and Uronic Acids in Hydrocolloids

Abstract: An improved gas-chromatographic method for the simultaneous determination of neutral sugars and uranic acids in hydrocolloids or industrial gums was developed. The procedure involved methanolysis with OSM methanolic HCl followed by trimethylsilylation. This method was simplified over other deri,/atization methods to make it suitable for the routine analysis of hydrocolloids or other polysaccharides which contain uranic acids. The usefulness of this method was demonstrated by analysis of commercially available … Show more

“…The proportion and sequential arrangement of the uronic acid residues depend on the seaweed species and on the age of the tissue used for alginate preparation (Annison et al, 1983;Heyraud et al, 1996). The published procedures for the determination of uronic acids in plant tissues involve hydrolysis with mineral acids or sequential treatment with mineral acids and enzymes (Quigley and Englyst, 1994), with subsequent spectrophotometric quantification (Jaime et al, 2002;Benhura and Determination of the uronic acid 91 ORIGINAL RESEARCH Chidewe, 2002), gas chromatography (Usov et al, 1995;Ha and Thomas, 1988) or HPLC (Quigley and Englyst, 1994;Heyraud and Leonard, 1991;Annison et al, 1983;Rodríguez et al, 1996). More recently, 1 H and 13 C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) have been used to determine the proportions of β-dmannuronic acid and α-l-guluronic acid (i.e.…”

“…Crude protein, ash and crude fiber were all determined by AOAC method (1995). Monosaccharides were determined according to the method of Ha and Thomas (1988). Briefly, exact 50 mg crude MBG was hydrolysed in 5 mL of 2 mol/L trifluoroacetic acid at 121C for 1 h at 0.1 Mpa.…”

“…A determinação e/ou monitoração dos açúcares (glicose e manose) e ácido glucurônico da goma, assim como, a presença de ácido galacturônico proveniente da pectina do resíduo de maçã, foi realizada por metanólise seguida de trimetilsililação de acordo com procedimento de HA e THOMAS 7 . Foi dissolvido 1,5 mg do resíduo ou da goma seca em 0,5 mL de HCl metanólico preparado por adição de cloreto de acetila (0,4 mL) em 15 mL de metanol anidro.…”
