Two water-soluble polysaccharides from mung bean skin: Physicochemical characterization, antioxidant and antibacterial activities

Purification, Physicochemical Properties, and Antioxidant Activities of Two Low-Molecular-Weight Polysaccharides from Ganoderma leucocontextum Fruiting Bodies

“…This may be correlated to the different molecular weights between GLP-1 and GLP-2. In some previous studies, polysaccharides with relatively larger molecular weights showed better antioxidant efficiency [55,56]. Nevertheless, Cai et al [53] found that a low-Mw polysaccharide from Sophorae tonkinensis Radix was more effective in free-radical scavenging and Fe 2+ chelating.…”

A review on nutritional composition, antinutritional components and health benefits of green gram ( Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek )

“…Polysaccharides, vitamins, proteins, and bioactive compounds extracted from seeds, sprouts, hulls of green gram possess prominent antioxidant activity. Two water‐soluble polysaccharides viz, MBP‐1 of molecular weight 139 kDa and MBP‐2 of molecular weight 208 kDa extracted from green gram skin exhibited 87.76% and 88.09% of DPPH radical scavenging activity, 67.54% and 69.84% of hydroxyl radical scavenging activity, and 73.52% and 92.91% of ABTS + scavenging activity respectively at 2 mg/ml concentration (Jiang et al., 2020). The protein hydrolysate (MBPHs‐I) obtained from green gram exhibited greater antioxidant potential, with 74.23% of DPPH scavenging activity, at 2.6 mg/ml concentration, which is closer to synthetic ascorbic acid activity.…”

“…In comparison with 1 mg/ml concentration of an antibiotic, Erythromycin, the protein fraction exerted potential antimicrobial activity at 0.5, 1.0, and 1.5 mg/ml concentrations, and in comparison with 1 mg/ml concentration of an antifungal drug, Fluconazole, the protein fraction exhibited antifungal activity at 2.5 mg/ml concentration (Jabi & Mathur, 2017). Two water‐soluble polysaccharides (MB1 and MB2) extracted from green gram skin showed a moderate level of antibacterial activity against S. aureus, B. subtilis, S. typhimurium, and S. sonnei (Jiang et al., 2020). The protein film made from green gram enriched with 25% of pomegranate peel exhibited antibacterial activity against L. monocytogenes and E. coli (Moghadam et al., 2020).…”

Short Communication Flour Properties of Whole and Dehulled Mung Beans (Vigna radiata) and Development of Food Gels Incorporated with Kithul (Caryota urenus) Flour

“…The XRD pattern analysis is one of the fundamental methods for examining the microstructure and physico-chemical makeup of unknown solid material. According to (Jiang et al, 2020) XRD reveals polysaccharide structures and a technique used for analysis of the crystalline structure of the material. A bun shape crystallinity pattern mean low crystallinity and sharp peaks means high crystallinity.…”
