Full textAcacia gum is an exudate from Acacia senegal var senegal commonly used in food and pharmaceutical industry as emulsifier and stabilizer (E414). The aim of this thesis, in partnership with Allan & Robert, was to study the relationship between chemical composition, physic-chemical properties, functional properties and environmental conditions of acacia gums synthesis and harvest. At first, studying raw gums show the influence of geographic origin and post-harvest storage condition on the acacia gums chemical composition and physic-chemical properties. Then, we confirm the important role of AGP fraction in emulsions properties into correlating the AGP percent with the emulsifying properties, the aromatic amino acid proportion in the fraction with the emulsion stability and the aggregates negative effect on the emulsion properties. Furthermore, a relation appears between emulsions quality and protein percent in gums. Finally, we highlighted the atomization process influence on physic-chemical and functional properties of acacia gums

Full textResults obtained during these three years of PhD deal with the tribological behaviour of diamond coatings obtained by flame process, and its variations with various parameters : the nature of the counterface, the environment, the applied normalload, the crystals orientation. A preliminary study led to the following conclusions: the scratch due to the diamonds tips motion appeared even at low load ; a graphitisation phenomenon happened at high load under oxygen ; the superficial tension forces played an important part under water vapour at low load. It was also shown that the measured friction coefficient is not typical of the real diamond behaviour, but rather characterised the (diamond + transfer) / (disc + wear debris) couple. The influence of the crystals orientation was then studied, highlighting thus the following phenomena : the preferential transfers from the disc to the pin; the different kind of indentations under oxygen ; the way the coatings are modified during the sliding : crystals deterioration, Sp3 -> Sp2 transformation. A study concerning the diamond/aluminuim alloys couples was then begun, dealing more particularly with the role of the oxides on the cutting process and the nature of the transfer. A simulation of the diamond coated pin-disc contact was finally realized : this modelling allowed the evaluation of the critical load avoiding the diamond-substrate decohesion, which is particularly important for the coated cutting tools

Full textAcacia gums (AG, E414 EC) are widely used for its stabilizing, emulsifying and film-forming properties. The aim of this project is to characterize the interfacial and emulsifying properties of Acacia gums. The main results from liquid-liquid interfacial properties study confirmed that A. senegal showed a faster decrease of interfacial tension and a more rapid interfacial film formation. These were in agreement to its greater content of high molar mass-protein AGPs content, the more accessibility of proteinaceous moieties, and the higher molecular flexibility compared to A. seyal. In the same vein, these biochemical and structural advantages of A. senegal were found to be involved in the emulsifying properties of gums. The results from an innovative approach aiming to control high molar mass protein-rich AGPs content in bulk and the total concentration of gum by mixing two well characterised fractions isolated from A. senegal confirmed the functional synergism between the amount of high molar mass protein-rich AGPs and the total gum concentration. Moreover, in the presence of high molar mass protein-rich AGPs in high amount, the emulsion became stable to flocculation/coalescence due to the great protein content allowing electrostatic repulsion between droplets and the high bulk apparent viscosity. These were in agreement when the emulsifying properties of A. senegal and A. seyal were compared. Indeed, A. senegal containing a greater amount of high molar mass protein rich AGPs and uronic acids and its dispersion having a higher apparent viscosity than A. seyal allowing the former to form emulsion with a more stability. Besides, when Acacia gums were used in the form of dried film, the great content of high molar mass protein-rich AGPs and the good accessibility of proteinaceous moieties of A. senegal allowed the smooth homogeneous surface with a hydrophobic characteristic properties of A. senegal dried films. In contrast, A. seyal films was irregular and composed of a repetitive organization as numerous large particle uniformly distributed on surface in the relation to the low degree of branching, high arabinose content favoring intra and inter molecular hydrogen bonding and high hydration ability causing aggregation of polysaccharide chains of A. seyal. According to the results, this thesis brings new knowledge of the relationship between biochemical composition, structural and physicochemical properties, for the first time, across both aspects of gum, i.e. in the form of liquid dispersion and dried films.Keywords: Acacia gums, interfacial and emulsifying properties, arabinogalactan proteins, aroma compounds

Full textThe North Cameroon like all arid and semi-arid zones of African sub-Saharan is facing desertification caused by climatic factors and over exploitation of natural resources.One of the consequences is the decline of crop yields due to degradation of arable land. In this situation, promotion of multipurpose trees plantations can improve the farmers’ livelihood. The introduction of A. senegal in the 90’s in agricultural farms had the aim to restore soil fertility and diversify sources of income for farmers through the production of arabic gum. Despite the multifunction aspect of this tree and the involvement of different development projects for its extension, the results and reactions of local people to its plantation remain inconclusive and selective. The thesis identifies and analyzes the socio-economic factors and their effects on the farmers decision to plant A. senegal. The method is based on surveys and semi-structured interviews. The results show that the best gum yield observed on the exploitation is 50 kg / ha / year. However, the revenue can be increased with the sale of byproducts of A. senegal. Not all farmers are sufficiently informed or trained. A platform for dialogue is to be set in order to redefine the roles of stakeholders in the market chain. For the sustainable management of A. senegal plantations, development projects and policy makers need to meet the standards of gum price differentiation

Full textAn increasing drought effect is known in Senegal, arid country who is confronted to a silting problem, a decline in overall land fertility and soils compaction. Seedling of A. senegal and P. juliflora in association or no with microorganism are studied to know some what these species can contribute to the moving dune fixing and improvement land productivity. Seedling inoculated to mycorrhizas and Rhizobium are planted in Sangalkam, Bandia and Bambey and are harvested one year after for analyzed. Another experience in greenhouse consisted to grow up the same species on the same type of soil with different levels of compaction and a share occupied by inoculated seedlings. Results showed that the rate of mycorhisation reached his peak on soils poor in phosphorus. The inoculation increased the production of biomass while reducing the size of root wood vessels. She also increases it % of cellulose according to root diameter and age. % that increases with the root tensile strength, spring of better anchorage and resistance of extortion. An increase of soil compaction level decreases, meaningfully, the rate of mycorhisation and the number of root nodule. She favored the fine roots to detriment of thick roots. She affects positively root’s morphology in aid of better anchorage. P. juliflora is better for the struggle against the wind erosion the silting and loss of fertility in the Niayes area. A. senegal can contribute to the improvement of fertility while adapting its root system facing soil compaction

Full textAcacia gum is the oldest and most widely known and used gum, it is a dried gummy exudate from the leaves and branches of the Acacia senegal and Acacia seyal trees. Acacia gums are weakly charged, amphiphilic hyperbranched arabinogalactan-proteins (AGPs). They are composed of about 90% polysaccharides and from 1-3% of proteins and minerals. In spite of the widely spread of industrial usage of A. gums, their volumetric properties (hydrostatic and hydrodynamic) have not been well studied. These properties have been linked to important properties such as flexibility and hydration of the molecule, which are related to important functional properties of A. gums (e. g. interfacial properties). The main objective of this PhD thesis was to study the volumetric properties of AGPs from Acacia gums exudates. For this effect, the main commercial species, A. senegal and A. seyal, and the macromolecular fractions of the former, obtained via hydrophobic interaction and ionic exchange chromatographies were studied. The main results showed that AGPs from Acacia gums have a semi-flexible structure. However, differences in their flexibility and hydration were seen among AGP fractions. These differences were explained based on their composition, polarity, molar mass, shape and conformation. Furthermore, an intermediate behavior between proteins and linear polysaccharides was evidenced. In addition, an effect of the presence of AGP based aggregates on the volumetric properties was seen

Full textThis study aimed to describe the wood anatomy of ten species of the former genus Acacia Mill., as well as to conduct a quantitative agglomerative analysis with 25 species of the same genus, in order to recognize wood anatomical features of diagnostic value to the genera segregated from Acacia Mill. in 2005. The following species were investigated and described, according to IAWA Committee: Acacia acuminata A. Gray, Acacia cambagei R.T. Baker, ex Baker, Acacia harpophylla F. Muell. ex Benth., Acacia koa A. Gray, Acacia rhodoxylon Maiden, Acacia richii A. Gray, Senegalia martiusiana (Steud.) Seigler e Ebinger, Vachellia collinsii Saff., Vachellia nilotica (L.) P. J. H. Hurter e Mabb., e Vachellia planifrons (Wight e Arn.) Ragup., Seigler, Ebinger e Maslin. To the Cluster analysis, anatomical data of another 15 species were collected from the literature. All species share the following features of large occurrence in Fabaceae: diffuse-porous wood; simple perforation plates; vestured intervessel pits; paratracheal parenchyma; libriform fibers; and homogeneous rays. The presence of septate fibers allows to distinguish all the studied species of Senegalia Raf. The occurrence of conspicuous large rays, conjugated with abundant axial parenchyma allows to set apart all Vachellia species from the seven ones, that belongs to the genus Acacia Mill.
Este trabalho teve por objetivo a descrição anatômica de dez espécies de madeira do antigo gênero Acacia Mill., bem como a realização de uma análise quantitativa aglomerativa com dados de 25 espécies do mesmo gênero, com vistas a contribuir para o melhor conhecimento taxonômico, além de reconhecer, na estrutura do lenho, caracteres qualitativos e quantitativos de valor diagnóstico para os táxones segregados em 2005, a partir deste gênero botânico. As descrições basearam-se nas recomendações do IAWA Committee: Acacia acuminata A. Gray, Acacia cambagei R.T. Baker, ex Baker, Acacia harpophylla F. Muell. ex Benth., Acacia koa A. Gray, Acacia rhodoxylon Maiden, Acacia richii A. Gray, Senegalia martiusiana (Steud.) Seigler e Ebinger, Vachellia collinsii Saff., Vachellia nilotica (L.) P. J. H.

Todas as espécies apresentam os seguintes caracteres de ampla ocorrência em Fabaceae: porosidade difusa; placas de perfuração simples; elementos vasculares com pontoações ornamentadas; parênquima paratraqueal; fibras libriformes; e raios homogêneos. A presença de fibras septadas permite distinguir as espécies de Senegalia Raf. das demais. Por sua vez, a ocorrência de raios conspícuos, e a abundância de parênquima axial em Vachellia Wight e Arn. permite excluí-la das sete espécies do gênero.

Full textThis work deals with the study of linseed oil microencapsulation by complex coacervation of whey proteins and acacia gum. It focuses on the coacervation of whey proteins and acacia gum in aqueous medium as well as the mechanisms involved in the formation of microcapsules by complex coacervation. Complex coacervation is an associative phase separation phenomenon induced by electrostatic interactions between two polymers. The most widely used pair of polymers in complex coacervation is the system gelatin / acacia gum. However, the use of gelatin is a matter of controversy for food applications. An interesting alternative to gelatin consists of whey proteins and their major component, beta-lactoglobulin. An investigation of the composition of the coacervate system whey protein / acacia gum was carried out during this work. Capillary gel electrophoresis was used to quantify beta-lactoglobulin and alphalactalbumin in the coacervate. The influence of protein / polysaccharide ratio and pH on the composition of the coacervate was studied. Although the encapsulation process by complex coacervation has been known for many years, the mechanisms leading to the formation of microcapsules are not so much described. The encapsulation process by complex coacervation leading to the formation of microcapsules includes several stages that were examined. The emulsification step takes place in the intermediate flow regime. The modeling in turbulent regime accounted for experimental results and might be used for scaling-up the process. In situ monitoring of the encapsulation process by complex coacervation was performed for the first time in this study. It was carried out using a video probe immersed in a stirred reactor. This technique identified four successive steps induced by lowering the pH: the emulsification of the oil, the formation of the coacervate, the adsorption of the coacervate on the oil droplets, the formation of an encapsulation shell. The influence of physico-chemical parameters (protein / polysaccharide ratio and total concentration of biopolymers) and parameters related to the coacervation step on the formation of microcapsules were also studied by using the video probe
