Journal ArticleDOI
Structure–function relationships of immunostimulatory polysaccharides: A review
TL;DR: This review introduces basic immunological concepts required to understand the mechanisms that rule the potential claimed immunostimulatory activity of polysaccharides and critically presents a literature survey on the structural features of the poly Saccharide and reported immunostIMulatory activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Supercritical fluid extraction of grape seed (Vitis vinifera L.) oil. Effect of the operating conditions upon oil composition and antioxidant capacity
TL;DR: In this article, the supercritical fluid extraction of grape seed oil has been studied at 180, 200 and 220 bar, and 31315 and 32315 K to analyse their influence upon oil quality.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhancement of grape seed oil extraction using a cell wall degrading enzyme cocktail
TL;DR: In this article, the application of an enzymatic pre-treatment to increase the yield of grape seed oil extraction was studied, and experiments were carried out to measure the effects that reaction time, temperature, pH, particle size and enzyme concentration have upon the enzymatics activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optimization of the supercritical fluid coextraction of oil and diterpenes from spent coffee grounds using experimental design and response surface methodology
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors aimed at the optimization of operating conditions of the supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) of spent coffee grounds (SCG) using pure or modified CO 2, with particular emphasis on oil enrichment with diterpenes like kahweol, cafestol and 16-O -methylcafestol.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microwave superheated water extraction of polysaccharides from spent coffee grounds.
TL;DR: The feasibility of microwave superheated water extraction of polysaccharides from SCG was studied and it was shown that all extraction conditions allowed to obtain mainly arabinogalactans and galactomannans.
