Recovery of Carotenoids from ripe mango fruit peel by the application of biotechnological and radiation techniques

Binu, Clement (2007) Recovery of Carotenoids from ripe mango fruit peel by the application of biotechnological and radiation techniques. [Student Project Report]

Abstract

Item Type:	Student Project Report
Additional Information:	Present studies on recovery of Carotenoids from ripe mango peel by biotechnological approach were conducted with the objectives to improve the efficiency of extractability of natural colorant particularly beta- carotenes from fresh ripe mango peel by evaluating the impact of independent variables (Substrate concentration,enzyme conc., pH, temperature and incubation time) on the beta-carotene yield level and by assessing the degree of extractability of beta-carotenes by simultaneously Optimizing the above conditions by desirability function analysis to achieve the effective recovery of carotenoid pigments under defined extraction conditions, the extraction and quantification of Carotenoids (ß-carotene) in ripe mango (mangifera indica L) fruit peel was carried out by spectrophotometry and high-performance liquid chromatography instrumentation techniques.
