Sažetak
Interactions between polyphenols and fibers are important for polyphenol bioactivities, and have been studied in vitro with adsorption process and isotherms. However, the theoretical interpretations of adsorption potentially can be affected by the method of isotherm modeling. The aim was to study the interactions between β- glucan and quercetin derivatives (quercetin- 3- glucoside, quercetin-3-galactoside, quercetin-3- rhamnoside) by studying adsorption, and to potentially improve the modeling of adsorption isotherms. Quercetin derivatives were determined by using spectrophotometric method. Experimental results were modeled with Langmuir, Dubinin- Radushkevich, and Hill isotherms using non- linear regression, linear regression, and improved non- linear regression. For improved non-linear regression, code in the R programming language was developed. All quercetin derivatives adsorbed onto the surface of β- glucan. Improved non-linear regression gave somewhat lower errors and may be the most appropriate for adsorption interpretation. According to isotherms obtained with improved regression, it may be suggested that adsorption is higher for rhamnoside and glucoside of quercetin than for quercetin-3-galactoside which agrees with experimental results. Adsorption could be a physical process. The spatial arrangement of hydroxyl (OH) groups on the glycoside part of quercetin could affect the adsorption. In conclusion, a novel approach using improved non-linear regression has been shown to be a useful, novel tool for adsorption interpretation.
