Roots of Taraxacum kok-saghyz (TKS) are a promising alternative source of natural rubber latex (NRL). This study demonstrated the novel possibility of extracting, stabilizing, and concentrating NRL from roots of TKS with a high solid content. In addition, some colloidal characteristics of the isolated products, which are of interest for latex processing, were determined. A scaled-up extraction sequence based on previous studies of flow extraction was applied with a setup comprised of an industrial slicer, stirring stations, and a hydraulic press. Significant amounts of natural rubber (NR) were separated along with removed biomass. Stabilization of NRL was successfully maintained during latex isolation using ammonia-free stabilizing solutions consisting of an ethanolamine/ethanolamine hydrochloride (ETA/ETA-HCl) buffer, sodium oleate, sodium sulfite, and benzalkonium chloride. Purified and preconcentrated raw latex was obtained through repeated creaming and redilution. While a direct further concentration of raw latex proved difficult, the isolation of latex with a high solid content was achieved through redilution before the final centrifugation. Gravimetry indicated a solid content of >54%. The products were characterized by a high viscosity, and dilution was possible without coagulation. ζ-potential (ZP) was determined to be −60 mV and approved the successful stabilization of high solid latex. Dynamic light scattering (DLS) confirmed the possibility of maintaining a bimodal particle size distribution (PSD) with hydrodynamic diameters of 104–231 nm for the first mode and 522–830 nm for the second mode.

Aus einem Glykosid‐Konzentrat aus Apocynum cannabinum L. wurde neben den beiden schon früher isolierten Glykosiden Cymarin und Apocannosid noch ein drittes Glykosid in Kristallen isoliert und Cynocannosid genannt. Hydrolyse des letzteren gab L‐Oleandrose und dasselbe Genin, das auch in Apocannosid enthalten ist. Es wurde Cannogenin genannt. Durch Umsatz mit Propandithiol‐(l, 3) und anschliessende katalytische Entschwefelung liess es sich in Digitoxigenin überführen. Damit ist die Struktur des Genins entsprechend Formel IV bewiesen.
