Characterization of sulphoalkyl ether derivatives of beta-cyclodextrin by capillary electrophoresis with indirect UV detection.

A capillary electrophoresis method which characterizes the degrees of substitution of heterogeneous sulphoalkyl ether beta-cyclodextrin derivatives is described. The separation is based on the different electrophoretic mobilities observed from changes in the overall charge of the molecule as a result of substitution. Individual peaks of the electropherogram then provide a measure of each degree of substitution of the present beta-cyclodextrin. Detection of these beta-cyclodextrin derivatives is performed by indirect UV detection.

Effect of preservatives on patulin production by Penicillium expansum.

Penicillium expansum has been grown on Capek-Dox medium using glucose and fructose as carbon source. Preservatives used in fruit processing and introduced in the medium were sorbic acid, formic acid, benzoic acid, SO2 and saccharose. Sulphur dioxide had a most inhibitory effect on mycelium growth and patulin production, formic acid concentration of 0.025% increased the amount of patulin by about 30% as compared to the culture with no preservatives. However its higher concentrations inhibited synthesis of this mycotoxin. Sorbic acid concentration of 0.1% stimulated the fungus strains examined in patulin synthesis but its highest amounts were detected using 0.0125% benzoic acid increased patulin secretion from 8 to 50% as compared to the control, depending on the strain examined. Saccharose concentration up to 50% clearly decreased patulin content in the medium until its total disappearance.
