Extraction and fractionation of phenolic acids and glycoalkaloids from potato peels using acidified water/ethanol-based solvents
Abstract
Potato processing generates potato peels as byproducts. Methanolic extracts from the peels result in mixtures of phenolic acids and glycoalkaloids. Phenolic acids have potential for food applications owing to their antioxidant and antibacterial properties. However, when extracted from potatoes, their separation from toxic glycoalkaloids is needed prior to their applications in foods. Moreover, glycoalkaloids may be used as feedstock for synthesis of pharmaceuticals. This study aimed to develop a method for the extraction and fractionation of phenolic acids and glycoalkaloids from potato peels using food grade water/ethanol-based solvents. Samples were analyzed by ultrafast liquid chromatography (UFLC) and/or ultrafast liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (UFLC–MS). A methanol-based solvent for extraction was used as a control to be compared with two aqueous ethanolic solvents acidified with acetic acid. The recovery of the predominant compounds from potato peels was comparable for all three solvents. Extraction yielded per 100g of potato peel fresh weight 17.0mg α-chaconine, 7.1mg α-solanine, 0.1mg solanidine, 4.8mg caffeic acid, 13.3mg neochlorogenic acid, and 77.6mg chlorogenic acid. More than 90% of these compounds were recovered after two consecutive extractions. The crude extract was fractionated by solid-phase extraction at pH7 and eluted with aqueous ethanol. Quantitative recovery of the phenolic acids and glycoalkaloids was achieved in their corresponding fractions. Hydrolysis followed by solid-phase fractionation of the crude extract allowed recovery of 139μmol caffeic acid/100g potato peel fresh weight. Partial degradation of caffeic acid and glycoalkaloids occurred during the process. Degradation of caffeic acid can be likely mitigated by the addition of antioxidants and metal chelators. The method developed in this study allows the sustainable recovery of secondary plant metabolites from potato peels and their fractionation using food grade water/ethanolic solvents for application of phenolic extracts free of toxic glycoalkaloids for food preservation, and of glycoalkaloid extracts for synthesis of pharmaceuticals.

“The most used methods consist of polar solvent, usually methanol or ethanol (Maldonado et al ., 2014), acidic solvent, usually acetic acid, tricholo-acetic acid (TCA) or sulfuric acid (Matsuda et al ., 2004), or combined alcohol-acidic solutions (Nikolic and Stankovic, 2003; Distl et al ., 2009).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
