Selected AbstractsThe Debittering of Navel Orange Juice Using Polymeric FilmsJOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE, Issue 4 2007Stéphane C. Fayoux ABSTRACT:, In order to better understand and optimize the sorption of limonin (the major navel orange juice bitter principle) by various plasticized polymeric films, a sorption and plasticizer migration study was carried out using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and gas chromatography (GC). Low molecular weight (LMW) poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC) plasticized with dioctyl adipate (DOA) gave the best results for both limonin sorption and low DOA migration. Thick films did not significantly sorb more limonin than thin films in the timeframe of our experiments, as the absorption involved rapid surface sorption followed by slow bulk diffusion. The debittering efficiency was a 1000-fold greater than that obtained with current polystyrene divinylbenzene resin beads, with potential for industrial scale debittering.

[source] Synthesis, and structural and morphological characterization of iron oxide,ion-exchange resin and ,cellulose nanocomposites,APPLIED ORGANOMETALLIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 5 2001Lorenza Suber Abstract The synthesis and the comparative structural and morphological study of iron oxide nanoparticles in polystyrene-based ion-exchange resins and cellulosics are reported. The synthesis of magnetite was performed under nitrogen atmosphere by an in situ method in the presence of the matrix itself. Scanning and transmission electron microscopy measurements led to a detailed characterization of matrix morphology and of magnetic particle structure, size and morphology. The results show that the matrix influences the iron oxide particle size; the average size is about 7,nm in the resins and 25,nm in the celluloses. In the resins, particles are present inside the pores and as aggregates on the surface of the resin beads, whereas in the cellulose they are present on the surface and in the swollen network of the microfibers constituting the single fibers.

[source] Protein loading, elution, and resolution behavior in a novel device that integrates ultrafiltration and chromatographic separationBIOTECHNOLOGY & BIOENGINEERING, Issue 2 2003Xiao-Ping Dai Abstract Hollow fiber membranes and chromatographic resin beads are commonly employed in a variety of bioseparation processes. A new class of integrated separation devices is being studied in which the shell side of a hollow fiber device is filled with adsorbents/chromatographic resin beads. Such devices and the corresponding separation methods integrate feed broth clarification by the microfiltration/ultrafiltration membrane with bioproduct purification by the shell-side resin beads either as an adsorbent or as beads in elution chromatography. A mathematical model has been developed for the prediction of the chromatographic behavior of such an integrated device. Simulations have been done to study the effects of axial dispersion, feed flow rate, water permeation rate, fiber packing density, and void fraction. Numerical solutions were obtained by solving the governing equations. This model can reasonably describe the concentration profiles as well as the breakthrough and elution behaviors in the integrated device. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Frykman Epothilone D is a member of a class of potent antineoplastic natural products produced by myxobacteria. Previously, we have described a fed-batch epothilone D production process in which an adsorber resin is incorporated into the bioreactor setup to capture and stabilize the product in situ, preventing its degradation within the bioreactor. The capture of epothilone D by these relatively large resin beads enables the development of continuous and semicontinuous culturing systems incorporating bead retention mechanisms to completely retain the product within the bioreactor, increasing the epothilone D product titer by almost 3-fold in both cases over a baseline fed-batch system. These product retention strategies, described here for production of the epothilones, are generally applicable to any system using adsorber resins as a method to capture product during a microbial cultivation.
