i- Sodium hydroxide, water, sodium anthraquinone 2-sulfonate, hydrogen peroxide
Experimental 1. Arabinonic acid Dextrose monohydrate (1.71 mol glucose) was dissolved in 7.0 liters water and introduced into a Biolafitte glass fermenter tank having a working capacity of 15 liters. The solution was aerated with an air flow rate of 20 liters/minute while stirring 650 rev/minute at 40 °C. Three additional solutions are also prepared. The first was a glucose solution containing 50% solids, prepared using 1443.4 g dextrose monohydrate and 1181 g water, thus containing 7.92 mol of glucose. The second was a 50% NaOH solution consisting of 840 g NaOH and 840 g water. The third was sodium anthraquinone 2-sulfonate (24 g) dissolved in 110 volumes of 30% H2O2.
Procedure When dextrose monohydrate had been aerating for 30 minutes in the Biolafitte fermenter, sodium hydroxide and anthraquinone 2-sulfonate dissolved in hydrogen peroxide was added (Note 1). Stirring speed was then increased to 800 rev/min and the solution becames clear, characteristic of the oxidixed form of sodium anthraquinone 2-sulfonate. The 50% glucose solution was gradually added and the stirring speed adjusted so that the solution had a very light pink color. After 2 hours the reducing sugar content has fallen to lOg/1 and the temperature was gradually raised to 60 °C. Thereafter the solution was cooled and arabinonic acid isolated in 84.7%.
