Product Information

Inulin is an important fructan found in plants and vegetables, such as garlic, leeks, bananas, and Jerusalem artichoke. Inulin belongs to the fructan polysaccharide group, which usually contains about 2–60 fructose units in the linear chain with β-(2,1) glycosidic bonds and is usually associated with one end glucose unit. There is a growing concern for inulin because of the role of fructans in both food and pharmaceuticals. [ Citation38] Inulin is accredited by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as a safe polysaccharide (GRAS) with high biodegradability, biocompatibility, water-solubility, renewable, and nontoxic. [ Citation39, Citation40] Konjac is a neutral and water-soluble polysaccharide found in the roots and tubers of the Amorphophallus konjac plant consisting of β-(1,4) linked D-glucosyl and D-mannosyl residues (in the molar ratio of 1.5: 1 to 1.6:1) as the main chain with the β-(1,3) branch, and the degree of branching is about 8%. [ Citation33, Citation34] Konjac also possesses the high biodegradability and excellent film-forming ability, and konjac films have good water barrier properties compared to other polysaccharide films, [ Citation35] facilitating wide application in food, chemical, biology, and health.

In Nigeria, roselle jam has been made since colonial times and is still sold regularly at community fetes and charity stalls. It is similar in flavour to plum jam, although more acidic. It differs from other jams in that the pectin is obtained from boiling the interior buds of the roselle flowers. It is thus possible to make rosella jam with nothing but roselle buds and sugar.

[ Citation5] Roselle has been widely used in the food production, particularly in products such as beverages, jams, jellies, wines as a food colorant, and flour for biscuit manufacture. [ Citation6] Roselle calyces are a rich source of antioxidants with calyces containing anthocyanins as high as 2.5g/100g on the dry weight along with organic acids, minerals, amino acids, carotene, α-tocopherol and linoleic acid. [ Citation7] Regarding the anthocyanin composition, the calyces contain delphinidin-3-glucoside, cyanidin-3-glucoside, delphinidin-3-sambubioside, and cyanidin-3-sambubioside being these compounds responsible for the red color of hibiscus. [ Citation8, Citation9] Researchers have demonstrated the health benefits of roselle, such as anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory, and anti-carcinogenic, anti-hypertensive effects. These effects are attributed to the antioxidant properties of bioactive compounds, such as phenolic acids, anthocyanins, and carotenoids in hibiscus.
