Green Downstream Processing Method for Xylooligosaccharide Purification and Assessment of Its Prebiotic Properties.

ABSTRACT: Xylooligosaccharides (XOS) obtained from lignocellulosic biomass after autohydrolysis primarily consist of lignin-derived impurities and autogenerated inhibitors like furfural, hydroxymethylfurfural, and acetic acid. In this study, graphene oxide-mediated purification (GOMP), a novel and environmentally friendly downstream processing method, was developed for the purification of XOS from hydrolysate obtained after ozone-assisted autohydrolysis of wheat bran. GOMP resulted in appreciable recovery of total XOS from the hydrolysate (73.87 ± 4.25%, DP2-6) with near complete removal of autogenerated inhibitors (furfural 85.42%, HMF 87.38%, and acetic acid 84.0%). Recovery of XOS by GOMP was higher than the conventional membrane purification technique (44.07 ± 0.92%) and activated charcoal treatment (72.76 ± 0.84%) along with comparatively higher removal of inhibitor compounds. GOMP results in the selective adsorption of inhibitors on the graphene oxide matrix from the XOS-rich hydrolysate, resulting in its purification and concentration. The prebiotic function of the obtained XOS fractions (DP2-4.48%, DP3-39.69%, DP4-36.13%, DP5-8.38%, and DP6-13.10%) was evaluated, indicating the growth stimulation of tested probiotic cultures and differential utilization of XOS oligomers DP3 and DP4 and complete consumption of DP2, DP5, and DP6 along with short-chain fatty acids as a major fermentation product. These findings suggest that GOMP, which employs a common substance (i.e., graphene oxide) used in water treatment, exhibits potential as an efficient and economically viable single-step methodology for XOS purification.

Project description:The sustainable extraction of natural compounds has recently attracted significant attention. The extraction of high-quality natural vanillin in active form is crucial for its efficient use in various industries, but conventional solvents are not suitable for this purpose. The flammability, volatility, and toxicity of organic solvents can harm extraction personnel, and their waste liquid can cause environmental pollution. Natural deep eutectic solvents (NADES) are cost-effective, environmentally friendly, biodegradable, and non-toxic organic alternative to conventional solvents. In this study, 20 different NADES were tested for the sustainable extraction of natural vanillin. Among these, a DES system composed of choline chloride: 1,4-butanediol: lactic acid exhibited the highest extraction rate (15.9 mg/g). Employing response surface methodology (RSM), optimal extraction conditions were determined, yielding a vanillin content 18.5 mg/g with water content of 33.9%, extraction temperature of 64.6°C, extraction time of 32.3 min, and a solid-liquid ratio of 44.9 mg/mL. Subsequently, the optimized NADES system was then assessed for reusability in extracting vanillin from vanilla pods and kraft lignin over three cycles, retaining 43% of its extraction efficiency and demonstrating potential for waste reduction. Purification of vanillin was achieved through chromatography using a non-polar resin SP700, with ethanol as a desorption eluent and a feed solution pH of 4.0, resulting in the highest vanillin purity. HPLC and GC-MS analyses confirmed purity, while antioxidant activity assays (DPPH and ABTS) showcased significant antioxidant activity of the purified vanillin. Moreover, vanillin exhibited notable antimicrobial activity against a panel of food-borne bacteria. This study introduces an environmentally friendly approach to vanillin extraction highlights using NADES, emphasizing the potential for producing high-quality bioactive vanillin with reduced environmental impact. The applicability of NADES systems extends beyond vanillin, offering a versatile method for extracting diverse natural compounds.
