Product Description

Tamarind seed polysaccharide (TSP) from chemical and non-chemical method has been evaluated for phytochemical, physico-chemical, FT-IR, and SEM analyses in the present work. The extraction of gum from defatted tamarind kernel powder was carried out with distilled water, whereas the precipitation was carried out with ethyl alcohol as chemical and supernatant dried at hot air oven as non-chemical. Phytochemical test revealed the presence of carbohydrates in both the samples. Physico-chemical properties such as pH, ash content, moisture content, swelling index, and water retention properties showed the similar result.  chemical and non-chemical TSP, respectively, revealed that the powder is free-flowing with good flow ability. Viscosity of two samples clearly indicates that tamarind seed polysaccharide in aqueous solution obeys correlation coefficient values ranging 89.50-119.60 (m Pa.s). In their scanning electron microscopy (SEM) investigation, the particles were found to be larger sized with irregular forms and smooth surfaces. Both TSP's FT-IR spectra showed peaks typical of xyloglucan glycosidic structure, which implies that tamarind seed polysaccharides had a superior gelling and sticky characteristics have numerous uses in the food and pharmaceutical industries; as a result of the evaluated purity and physico-chemical properties, non-chemical methods are to be commercial viable with no adverse effect.
