| Abstract | Konjac Glucomannan (KGM) nanocrystals were prepared from the disruption of KGM by acid hydrolysis. Effect of hydrolysis time on the degree of hydrolysis of KGM and the size of nanocrystals were investigated. Results from Infrared spectroscopy (IR) showed that KGM nanocrystals were still composed of mannose and glucose like the raw KGM. Results from X-ray diffractometer (XRD) revealed that the amorphous state of raw KGM had changed into a typical β-type crystalline state of KGM nanocrystals. Results from transmission electron microscopy (TEM) indicated that irregularly oval shape nanocrystals with the mean size of 15-40 nm were observed. |
