alginate | calcium alginate is the calcium salt of alginic acid, which is prepared from seaweed plants such as Sargassum, Laminaria, kelp, the yield of these plants in China is quite rich, and the alginate used in the paper industry is mainly sodium alginate or ammonium salt. The main functions of calcium alginate are as follows: (1) Calcium Alginate sponge: Calcium Alginate is mainly used to produce calcium alginate sponge, which can be used to stop bleeding from skin injury and wound bleeding. Calcium Alginate sponge application after the wound, that is, with the wound exudate and blood in the exchange of sodium ions and calcium ions, the release of calcium ions, and the formation of a gel layer on the surface of the wound. Due to the release of calcium ions, the formation of blood clots in the ends of the capillaries is accelerated, thereby achieving rapid hemostasis. Due to the formation of the wound surface gel layer, the wound has a certain protective effect, and the wound to maintain a certain degree of humidity, temperature, for wound healing to create a good microenvironment, promote wound healing. (2) stabilizer and gelling agent: the ability and strength of sodium alginate to form gel are related to CA2. It reacts with calcium ions in milk to form calcium alginate, which causes a series of complex reactions of milk protein. Calcium Alginate can well maintain the shape of ice cream, especially ice cream stored for a long time, and is very effective in preventing shrinkage and graying of tissues. With Ca2, pectin has a synergistic effect. (3) immobilized fermentation of brewer's yeast: The brewer's yeast is placed in sodium alginate solution dissolved in wort, and then dropped into calcium chloride solution dissolved in wort, calcium Alginate particles comprising yeast cells are formed and the yeast cells are immobilized. |
alginic acid | alginic acid is a viscous organic acid, also known as alginic acid and alginic acid. The product was a white to light yellow-brown powder. The average molecular weight was about 240,000. Melting point> 300 °c. Slightly soluble in hot water, the viscosity of its aqueous solution is 4 times higher than that of starch, insoluble in cold water and organic solvents, slowly soluble in alkaline solution. No odor. It is widely found in the cell walls of hundreds of brown algae, such as macroalgae, Laminaria, Laminaria, cuticosa and sargassum, among which there are more laminaria (about 20% on average), most exist as calcium and magnesium alginate salts. alginic acid is a linear block polyuronic acid, consisting of a homo-polymerized α-L-glucopyranuronic acid block, the homo-polymerized β-D-mannuronic acid block and the cross-block of these two uronic acids are linked by 1,4-glycosidic bonds. It exists in the cell wall of many marine brown algae in the form of calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium and strontium. Industrially, it is composed of macroalgae, Clau's kelp, Palm kelp, sugar kelp, kelp, wedge-based kelp (L. Octensis), Laminaria angustifolia (Laminaria angularis), Ascophyllum rodosum, lukhorn alga, Fucus melanocephala, extracted from empty stem Laminaria japonica and alga Pteridium sp. (Alaria), etc. The general extraction method is: raw seaweed after washing, with alkali digestion, alginic acid to produce soluble alkali metal salts, filtration, adding acid to precipitate alginic acid precipitation. Alginic acid can also be converted to sodium alginate, potassium alginate, Ammonium alginate, calcium alginate or other organic derivatives, collectively known as aglin. Commercial alginate refers mainly to sodium alginate. free alginic acid was a white solid. Insoluble in cold water, slightly soluble in hot water. Strong acidity, with acid resistance, but easy to heat alkali decomposition. Decarboxylation occurs by the action of concentrated hydrochloric acid. Selective adsorption of metal ions, especially Fe (II) ions. Its alkali metal salts and ammonium salts are dissolved in water to form a viscous liquid, but it is not easy to form a gel. Conversion to insoluble alginic acid gels or precipitates below pH 3. The addition of polyvalent metal ions (e. G., calcium chloride) predisposes the formation of calcium alginate gelation. Sodium salt is yellowish powder, insoluble in organic solvent,[a]D-139 °. Alginate is widely used in food, textile printing and dyeing, paper making, medicine, leather, cosmetics, rubber, coatings and water treatment industries. alginic acid is mainly used as a raw material for salts such as sodium alginate and as a drug for the production of gavage. Excipients, binders and stabilizers for tablets are also used. It is often used as a thickener and emulsifier in food and cosmetics. FIG. 1 shows the chemical structural formula of alginic acid. |
