A method for promoting the solubility of rhamnogalacturonan I (RG-I) pectin based on polysaccharide interaction is provided. The method includes the following steps: adding an aqueous solution of negatively charged polysaccharides to an RG-I pectin extract, mixing uniformly, adjusting the potential of Hydrogen (pH) of the compound to 3-7, performing ethanol precipitation to obtain a precipitate; washing the precipitate, followed by drying and crushing to obtain a polysaccharide-pectin compound; where the RG-I pectin extract is obtained by extracting orange peel powder with dilute hydrochloric acid.

Method for promoting solubility of RG-I pectin based on polysaccharide interaction

A preparation method for a nanopore starch-based adsorbent. The method mainly comprises: constructing a large number of lamellar crystals on surfaces of starch granules, and inducing the formation of a nano-scale pore channel structure by means of the lamellar crystals. A large number of control tests have proved that the flaky crystals have direct influence on the formation of the nano-scale pore channel structure. The construction of a pore channel structure in a starch matrix material greatly increases the specific surface area, and improves the adsorption properties. In addition, the method is beneficial to the introduction of functional particles (magnetic particles), and avoids the problem of pore channel blockage due to first forming pores and then introducing functional particles.

The present invention discloses an ultrasound-electrode-nano-porous membrane coupling hydrogen production and sterilization system, which comprises a vessel and a plurality of hydrogen production units arranged in the vessel. The hydrogen production unit comprises a cavity, and a broadband ultrasonic generator and a circular hydrogen production electrode located in the cavity. The circular hydrogen production electrode wraps around the broadband ultrasonic generator. A bottom membrane at the bottom of the cavity is hydrophobic at the inner side and hydrophilic at the outer side, and a side membrane of the cavity is hydrophilic at the inner side and hydrophobic at the outer side and is mounted vertically or obliquely upwards by an angle of 0-45 degrees. The system has the functions of continuously and efficiently facilitating self-circulation micro-flow of a liquid system, hydrogen dissolution (as nano-bubbles), conversion from the interface to the bulk phase and dispersion of bubbles, sterilization and others.
