Extraction of Pithecellobium clypearia Benth polysaccharides by dual-frequency ultrasound-assisted extraction: Structural characterization, antioxidant, hypoglycemic and anti-hyperlipidemic activities
In this research, the extraction process of polysaccharides from Pithecellobium clypearia Benth (PCBPs) was optimized using dual-frequency ultrasound-assisted extraction (DUAE). The biological activities of PCBPs were investigated by in vitro antioxidant, hypoglycemic, and anti-hyperlipidemic assay. High-performance anion-exchange chromatography, high-performance gel permeation chromatography, SEM, UV–Vis spectroscopy, and FT-IR spectra were used to analyze the monosaccharide composition, molecular weight, microscopic morphology, and characteristic structure of PCBPs. The results showed that the maximum extraction rate of PCBPs was 9.90 ± 0.16% when the ultrasonic time was 8 min, the liquid-to-material ratio was 32 mL/g, and the ultrasonic power was 510 W. The PCBPs also possessed excellent in vitro antioxidant, hypoglycemic, and anti-hyperlipidemic activities. In addition, the average molecular weight of PCBPs was 15.07 kDa. PCBPs consisted of rhamnose, arabinose, galactose, glucose, xylose, mannose, and glucuronic acid, with the molar ratios of 11.07%, 18.54%, 48.17%, 10.44%, 4.62%, 4.96%, and 2.20%, respectively. Moreover, the results of SEM showed that PCBPs mainly showed a fine spherical mesh structure. The above studies provided a valuable theoretical basis for the subsequent in-depth study of PCBPs.
