For example, the chemical composition of mucilage extracted at low temperature with ethanol precipitation showed an average ash content, a lower amount of crude fiber and ethereal extract, and a higher amount of the glycosidic fraction and protein content in the inorganic fraction of mucilage [ 31 ], whereas mucilage extracted at room temperature without precipitation showed a decreasing trend of glycosidic fractions from 91% to 38%, and protein content was increased from 3% to 47%.
