摘要： BACKGROUND Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatasL.) is the sixth most important food crop in the world, and China is the largest producer. Large amounts of sweet potato residues are generated during starch extraction, leading to environmental pollution and resource waste. However, these residues can be used as a viable source for pectin extraction. As a natural biopolymer with high molecular weight and complex structure, the usefulness of pectin has been limited, and it needs to be modified in order to improve its physicochemical properties, thus expanding its applications in the food industry. Therefore, the reported study was conducted to modify sweet potato pectin (SPP) using high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) and/or pectinase treatment, and to determine the effects of such treatment on structural, physicochemical and emulsifying properties. RESULTS The results demonstrated that the molecular weight of SPP decreased following HHP and pectinase treatment, which was evidenced using scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy. The degree of esterification was also decreased, confirmed by decreased intensity of the peak at 1739 cm(-1)in the Fourier transform infrared spectrum and decreased peaks at 3.6 and 3.8 ppm in the(1)H NMR spectrum. Moreover, the content of monosaccharides and uronic acids increased and emulsifying properties improved after HHP and pectinase treatment. CONCLUSIONS HHP-assisted pectinase treatment could be used as novel technique for the modification of pectin to give better emulsifying properties with great potential for application in the food industry.
