Introduction. Commercial pectin is usually obtained from apples or citrus fruits. However, some wild fruits, such as hawthorn, are also rich in pectin with valuable nutritional and medical properties. The research objective was to study and improve the process of combined surfactant and enzyme-assisted extraction of pectin from hawthorn fruits. Study objects and methods. The study involved a 1% solution of Polysorbate-20 surfactant and a mix of two enzymes, namely cellulase and xylanase, in a ratio of 4:1. The response surface methodology with the Box-Behnken experimental design improved the extraction parameters. The experiment featured three independent variables – temperature, time, and solvent-to-material ratio. They varied at three levels: 20, 40, and 60°C; 120, 180, and 240 min; 15, 30, and 45 mL per g. Their effect on the parameters on the pectin yield was assessed using a quadratic mathematical model based on a second order polynomial equation. Results and discussion. The response surface methodology made it possible to derive a second order polynomial regression equation that illustrated the effect of extraction parameters on the yield of polyphenols. The regression coefficient (R2 = 98.14%) and the lack-of-fit test (P > 0.05) showed a good accuracy of the model. The optimal extraction conditions were found as follows: temperature = 41°C, time = 160 min, solvent-to-material ratio = 32 mL per 1 g. Under the optimal conditions, the predicted pectin yield was 14.9%, while the experimental yield was 15.2 ± 0.4%. The content of galacturonic acid in the obtained pectin was 58.5%, while the degree of esterification was 51.5%. The hawthorn pectin demonstrated a good complex-building ability in relation to ions of copper (564 mg Cu2+/g), lead (254 mg Pb2+/g), and cobalt (120 mg Co2+/g). Conclusion. Combined surfactant and enzyme-assisted extraction made improved the extraction of pectin from hawthorn fruits. The hawthorn pectin can be used to develop new functional products.

The Aim of this study was to develop an optimized method for manufacturing process of traditional Algerian Jben cheese, using response surface methodology (RSM). In order to develop the objective method of making this traditional cheese, several factors have been studied and a Plackett-Burman statistical design was applied. The effects of the four screened factors (enrichment with milk powder, 10 - 20 g/l; pH of milk, 5.75 - 6.75, enzymatic extract dose, 0.5 - 1.5 ml and coagulation temperature 40 - 60 °C) on the response were investigated, using a Box-Behnken statistical design. Multiple regression analysis was used so that experimental data fits to a second-order polynomial equation. This multiple analysis showed that the model explains about 90.73% of the variation. Based on statistical results, it can be noticed that enrichment with milk powder and pH of milk (Ë‚0.0001***) were highly significant factor influincing cheese yield. The optimal production parame-ters that maximized cheese product (20 g/l enrichment with milk powder, 5.75 pH of milk, 1.29 ml enzymatic extract dose and 60°C coagulation temperature) and the maximal predicted cheese yield (52.68 % ) were found out through response surface methodology. Under these conditions, a verification experiment was carried out and cheese yield was found to be 49.46 %. The overall percentage of agreement for the experimental results (more than 93 % validity) with the predicted values indicates the validation of the statistical model and the success of the optimization process.

The purpose of this work is to develop a pretreatment process of lingo-cellulosic ethanol production from narrow leaves cattail (Typha angustifolia) by using alkali catalysis with the response surface methodology (RSM) as a central composite design (CCD). The first step, LiOH, NaOH, and KOH were used as catalytic alkali for preliminary test. Second, the suitable alkali from first step was selected to optimize of pretreatment condition of three independent variables (alkali concentration, temperature, and residence time) that varies at CCD five codes (-2, -1, 0, 1, 2). Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is the proper alkali because it could increase cellulose more than KOH and nearby LiOH while it is cheapest. RSM result shows the optimized pretreatment condition based on cellulose increased which obtained from this study that is NaOH 5 % w/v at 100 °C and residence time for 120 min. Beside, this condition was analyzed using an ANOVA with a second order polynomial equation after eliminated non-significant terms. At the optimized conditions, cellulose increased, hemicellulose decreased and weight recovery were achieved 77.81%, 80.59, and 41.65%, respectively. Moreover, the model was reasonable to predict the response of strength with less than 5% error.

Penelitian dirancang untuk mengetahui kondisi optimum proses enzyme assisted extraction lemak rumput laut hijau segar Caulerpa lentillifera dengan menggunakan enzim selulase. Proses optimasi dilakukan menggunakan Response Surface Methodology (RSM) model Central Composite Design dengan 15 perlakuan. Perlakuan yang didapatkan untuk mengetahui pengaruh variabel bebas diantaranya konsentrasi enzim, suhu hidrolisis, dan waktu hidrolisis terhadap respon yaitu jumlah ekstrak lemak dan aktivitas antioksidan. Dari hasil penelitian didapatkan model 2FI dan Linier berturut-turut untuk respon jumlah lemak dan aktivitas antioksidan. Kondisi optimum yang diperoleh yaitu konsentrasi enzim sebesar 2%, suhu hidrolisis sebesar 30 °C, dan waktu hidrolisis selama 1 jam. Kondisi optimum tersebut kemudian dapat diverifikasi dengan melakukan perlakuan terpilih sebanyak 2 kali ulangan atau lebih hingga mendekati hasil prediksi. Asam lemak yang diperoleh setelah metilasi dan identifikasi dengan GC-MS yaitu asam palmitat dan asam laurat.

Abstract Response surface methodology (RSM) with a Box–Behnken design (BBD) was used to optimize the extraction conditions of carotenoid antioxidants from Cordyceps militaris. An enzyme-assisted extraction (EAE) method was developed and optimized to enhance 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazil (DPPH) radical-scavenging activity of carotenoid antioxidants from C. militaris. The optimum conditions were as follows: a pH of 4.1, an extraction time of 40.4 min, an extraction temperature of 48.7 °C and 0.43 % enzyme (cellulose: pectinase, 1:1, w/w) concentration. Under these conditions, the DDPH radical-scavenging activity of C. militaris extracts was 81.62±2.26 %, indicating that the BBD is an efficient approach to develop mathematical models for predictingcarotenoids antioxidant extraction from C. militaris. The successful extraction of carotenoid antioxidants from C. militaris provides a basis for the development and utilization of C. militaris resources.
