[PMID: 38823873 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2024.114494] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2024] [Revised: 05/06/2024] [Accepted: 05/07/2024] [Indexed: 06/03/2024]
Abstract
Pores and bubbles significantly influence the physical attributes (like texture, density, and structural integrity), organoleptic properties, and shelf life of processed foods. Hence, the quality of foods and their acceptance by the consumers could be influenced by the properties and prevalence of pores and bubbles within the food structure. Considering the importance of pores, this review aimed to comprehensively discuss the factors and mechanisms involved in the generation of pores and bubbles during the processing of different food products. Moreover, the characteristics and effects of pores on the properties of chocolates, cheeses, cereal-based foods (like cake, puffed grains, and pasta), dried, and fried products were discussed. The impacts of bubbles on the quality of foam-based products, foam creamers, and beverages were also explored. This review concludes that intrinsic factors (like food compositions, initial moisture content, and porosity) and extrinsic factors (like applied technologies, processing, and storage conditions) affect various properties of the pores and bubbles including their number, size, orientation, and distribution. These factors collectively shape the overall structure and quality of processed food products such as density, texture (hardness, cohesiveness, chewiness), and water holding capacity. The desirability or undesirability of pores and their characteristics depends on the type of products; hence, some practical hints were provided to mitigate their adverse effects or to enhance their formation in foods. For example, pores could increase the nutrient digestion and reduce the shelf life of the products by enhancing the risk of fat oxidation and microbial growth. In conclusion, this study provides a valuable resource for food scientists and industry professionals by discussing the effects of pores on food preservation, heat, and mass transfer (including oxygen, moisture, flavors, and nutrients). Understanding the dynamic changes in porosity during processing will be effective in customization of final product quality with desired attributes, ensuring tailored outcomes for specific applications.

Abstract
Chia seeds have gained significant attention due to their unique composition and potential health benefits, including high dietary fibers, omega-3 fatty acids, proteins, and phenolic compounds. These components contribute to their antioxidant, anti-inflammatory effects, as well as their ability to improve glucose metabolism and dyslipidemia. Germination is recognized as a promising strategy to enhance the nutritional value and bioavailability of chia seeds. Chia seed sprouts have been found to exhibit increased essential amino acid content, elevated levels of dietary fiber and total phenols, and enhanced antioxidant capability. However, there is limited information available concerning the dynamic changes of bioactive compounds during the germination process and the key factors influencing these alterations in biosynthetic pathways. Additionally, the influence of various processing conditions, such as temperature, light exposure, and duration, on the nutritional value of chia seed sprouts requires further investigation. This review aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of the nutritional profile of chia seeds and the dynamic changes that occur during germination. Furthermore, the potential for tailored germination practices to produce chia sprouts with personalized nutrition, targeting specific health needs, is also discussed.

Improving the structure and properties of whey protein emulsion gel using soluble interactions with xanthan and basil seed gum. Food Sci Nutr 2023; 11:6907-6919. [PMID: 37970390 PMCID: PMC10630812 DOI: 10.1002/fsn3.3598] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/18/2023] [Revised: 07/20/2023] [Accepted: 07/22/2023] [Indexed: 11/17/2023] Open
Abstract
Applying hydrocolloids in the structure of protein emulsion gel can improve its properties. Interaction of whey protein concentrate (WPC) (5%) with xanthan gum (XG) and basil seed gum (BSG) at different concentrations (0.2%, 0.4%, and 0.6%) was investigated to improve mechanical and structural properties of emulsion gel. Results illustrated that gums created a stronger structure around the oil droplets, which confocal images approved it. Also, the particle size decreased and uniformed by cooperating 0.6% gum in comparison with WPC (46.87 μm). The lowest and highest hardness values were observed in emulsion gel formed by WPC (1.27 N) and 0.6BSG: WPC (3.03 N), respectively. Also, the increase of gum concentration had a positive on consistency parameter of texture, so the value was 11.48 N s in WPC emulsion gel and it reached 0.6BSG: WPC (25.71 N s) and 0.6XG: WPC (19.96 N s). Evaluating the stability of the treatments by centrifugation indicated that 0.6BSG: WPC (89.10%) and 0.6XG: WPC (74%) had the highest level of stability. Increasing gum concentration increased the consistency and viscosity. Also, the viscoelastic properties of emulsion gel improved by 0.6% BSG. The elastic modulus of the WPC, 0.6XG: WPC, and 0.6BSG: WPC emulsion gels at the same frequency (1 Hz) was 240.90, 894.59, and 1185.61 Pa, respectively. In general, the interaction of WPC solution with hydrocolloids, especially BSG, is suggested to prepare more stable and elastic emulsion gels.

Abstract
Interaction between biopolymers generates different rheological behaviors, which can be effective on the structure of food products. One way to control the polysaccharide-protein interaction is the variation of acidic and ionic strength. In this research, the different amounts of pHs (3-7) and calcium chloride (5-20 mM) were investigated on a soluble complex of whey protein concentrate (WPC) with xanthan gum (XG) and basil seed gum (BSG). The complex characteristic was investigated according to turbidity, viscosity behavior, and electrostatic interactions. The turbidity test showed that WPC:BSG and WPC:XG absorbance increased at pH 3.5 and 4.5, respectively, due to the formation of insoluble complex. pH 6 was the start point of the turbidity increment, which showed the formation of soluble complexes between WPC and polysaccharides. The FTIR analysis confirmed creation of soluble complex at pH 6. The absorbance raised with increasing the molar of CaCl2 to 10 mM, but no significant difference was observed by turbidity test in the range of CaCl2<10 mM. Also, the highest viscosity value was obtained by 10 mM CaCl2.

Influence of different salts on rheological and functional properties of basil (Ocimum bacilicum L.) seed gum. Int J Biol Macromol 2020; 149:101-107.

Abstract
In this paper, the influence of a variety of salts (NaCl, CaCl2, and KCl) at different concentrations (0, 0.1, 0.5 and 1% w/w) on rheological and functional properties of basil seed gum (BSG) were investigated. BSG produced a high viscosity solution with yield stress, which was a function of salt type and concentration. In all samples, viscosity decreased as the electrostatic interactions between the BSG chains altered by salts. Flow behavior index increased by salt addition, which shows BSG had weaker shear-thinning behavior and worse mouthfeel in the presence of salts. The viscoelasticity of BSG strongly influenced by the addition of salt type as well as concentration. Larger cations (Ca+2) shield the electrostatic interaction between BSG chains more strongly compared to smaller cations as they have larger hydrated radius. As a result divalent salts decreased the viscosity and viscoelasticity more significantly. Emulsion capacity improved by salts addition, especially at high concentrations of salts. The foam capacity increased in the presence of CaCl2 and KCl increased foaming capacity of BSG. The results suggest that the addition of the different types of salt can alter or modify the rheological and functional properties of BSG, depending on the salt concentration.

Abstract
In this study, the influence of molecular weight (MW) was measured on functional characteristics of Balangu seed (Lallemantia royleana) gum (BSG) fractions. Firstly, BSG fractionated by precipitation method using ethanol basis on MW. Two fractions called precipitate (PER) Balangu and supernatant (SUPER) Balangu were obtained as the highest and lowest MW fractions, respectively. Then the physicochemical properties (uronic acid, protein and molecular weight) were investigated for BSG and fractions. Moreover, the rheological characteristics of BSG and fractions emulsions were determined. The results showed, the value of MW for Balangu, PER-Balangu and SUPER-BSG were 3120 kDa, 6130 kDa and 2050 kDa, respectively. All the emulsions established shear-thinning behavior (1%, w/w). SUPER- Balangu was obtained lower storage moduli (G') and loss moduli (G''), which showed as the best uniform emulsion. The present of high uronic acid content (20.35%) and protein content (10.8%) of SUPER-Balangu led its increase emulsifying activity. PER-Balangu emulsion contains more poly-dispersed oil droplets with larger size which may be due to low protein content (6.03%). According to the results the most uniform emulsion related to SUPER-Balangu which can be a replacement for some of the plant hydrocolloids used in food products.
