Problems solved by technology

[0005] Low-molecular-weight guar gum is usually obtained by enzymatically degrading guar gum. In the preparation process, expensive enzymes are used, and the product requires a complicated separation and purification process, and the enzyme may remain in the product. The repeatability of process control is poor.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing low-molecular-weight guar gum, which comprises the following steps: irradiating guar gum hydrosol with 200-450-nanometer ultraviolet light; and obtaining solid low-molecular-weight guar gum through freeze-drying, spray drying or ethanol precipitation filtration drying. The method can obtain an oligosaccharide (a polysaccharide consisting of 2 to 10 sugar units), has the advantages of simplicity, convenience and quickness, high yield, easily-controllable molecular weight, good reproducibility, simple process equipment, safety and no pollution, lowcost and the like, and can be applied to rapid preparation of a small amount of low-molecular-weight guar gum, and can be further industrialized and applied to the production of a large amount of low-molecular-weight guar gum. The obtained product can be used for the production of foods and health products, and can also be used as medicine and chemical raw materials.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a preparation method of low molecular weight guar gum, which belongs to the field of natural polymer chemistry. Background technique [0002] Guar gum is a natural polysaccharide extracted from guar beans, a leguminous plant widely grown in the Indian-Pakistani subcontinent. Due to its unique molecular structure and naturalness, it has been used in food, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, personal health care, petroleum, adhesives, papermaking and textile printing and dyeing industries. [0003] The molecular structure of guar gum is a kind of non-ionic polysaccharide, which takes polymannose as the molecular backbone, D-mannopyranose units are connected by β (1-4) glycosidic bonds, and D-galactopyranose is It is connected to the main chain of polymannose by α(1-6) glycosidic bonds. The molar ratio of mannose to galactose units in guar gum is 2:1. It is reported in the literature that the molecular weight of guar gum is around 200,...
