Research Progress on Extraction,Purification,Structural Characteristics and Bioactivities of Polysaccharides from Edible Legumes
Edible legumes are important food resources.As important bioactive components in edible legumes,legume polysaccharides become a research hotspot in the field of legume food.Legume polysaccharides have good bioactivities such as antioxidation,lowering blood sugar,lowering blood lipid,anti-tumor,immunoregulation and anti-bacteria,and have good value in the development of functional foods.Based on the current research status at home and abroad,the research status of legume polysaccharides are comprehensively reviewed from three aspects:extraction and purification technologies,characterization of structural characteristics and bioactivities.Due to the multiple types and complex structures of legume polysaccharides,the mechanism of bioactivities is still unclear.The structure-activity relationship between the bioactivities and structure of legume polysaccharides will be the research focus in the field of legume polysaccharides in the future.The effects of traditional processing techniques such as fermentation and germination on the structure and bioactivities of legume polysaccharides also have important research value.This review has provided important theoretical references for both theoretical research and applied research on the development of legume foods.
