Abstract

Polysaccharides as the biopolymers are showing various structural and modulatory functions. Effective separation of carbohydrate structures is essential to understanding their function. In this study, we choose an efficient organic acid in combination with recyclable organic solvent three-phase partitioning technology for the simultaneous extraction of polysaccharides from Ampelopsis japonica (AJPs) to ensure the integrity of linear and branched polysaccharide. The monosaccharide composition, glycosidic linkage information, structural and physicochemical analyses and associations with antioxidant activities were extensively analyzed. Synergistic extraction was compared with the conventional hot water extraction method and the results showed that AJPs-HNP exhibited better elastic properties and excellent antioxidant activity. Correlation analysis confirmed that the antioxidant activity of AJPs was significantly correlated with relative molecular weight, uronic acid content and terminal glycoside linkage molar ratios. The collaborative processing has significantly improved the utilization potential of AJPs and provides a sound theoretical foundation for the effective extraction and separation of polysaccharides. Overall, this work provides systematic and comprehensive scientific information on the physicochemical, rheological and antioxidant properties of AJPs, revealing their potential as natural antioxidants in the functional food and pharmaceutical industries.
