    Abstract:
    Water extractable pentosans extracted from three varieties of oats were studied for structural analysis using ATR- FTIR, ferulic acid content using RP-HPLC, antioxidant activity by DPPH, reducing power, and metal chelating assays, and functional properties. The appearance of absorption band at 1720 cm-1 in water extractable pentosans is assigned to the presence of aromatic esters as displayed from ATR-FTIR spectrum. All the samples exhibited non-newtonian behavior with viscosities following the order; SWEP > 20WEP > 90WEP. Bile acid binding capacity of water soluble pentosans varied significantly from 46.69 to 49.40%. RP-HPLC displayed that water extractable pentosans from SKO20 contained about 2 times higher FA (423.00 μg/100 g) compared to SWEP (250.00 μg/100 g) and 90 WEP (253.00 μg/100 g). Water soluble pentosans had DPPH scavenging activity, reducing power, and metal chelation activity in the range of 13.57-17.45 (μg α-tocopherol/g), 8.91-10.24 (μg BHT/g), and 0.55-0.76 (μg citric acid/g), respectively.
