Effect of sanxan as novel natural gel modifier on the physicochemical and structural properties of microbial transglutaminase-induced mung bean protein isolate gels. Food Chem 2024; 449:139147. [PMID: 38581784 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.139147] [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: 01/04/2024] [Revised: 03/04/2024] [Accepted: 03/24/2024] [Indexed: 04/08/2024]
Abstract
Mung bean protein isolate (MBPI) has attracted much attention as an emerging plant protein. However, its application was limited by the poor gelling characteristics. Thus, the effect of sanxan (SAN) on the gelling behavior of MBPI under microbial transglutaminase (MTG)-induced condition were explored in this study. The results demonstrated that SAN remarkably enhanced the storage modulus, water-holding capacity and mechanical strength. Furthermore, SAN changed the microstructure of MBPI gels to become more dense and ordered. The results of zeta potential indicated the electrostatic interactions existed between SAN and MBPI. The incorporation of SAN altered the secondary structure and molecular conformation of MBPI, and hydrophobic interactions and hydrogen bonding were necessary to maintain the network structure. Additionally, in vitro digestion simulation results exhibited that SAN remarkably improved the capability of MBPI gels to deliver bioactive substances. These findings provided a practical strategy to use natural SAN to improve legume protein gels.

Chen K, Ahmad MI, Jiang Q, Zhang H. Acid-induced hydrogels of edible Chlorella pyrenoidosa protein with composite biopolymers network. Food Chem 2024; 460:140699. [PMID: 39116772 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.140699] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/25/2023] [Revised: 07/25/2024] [Accepted: 07/27/2024] [Indexed: 08/10/2024]
Abstract
This study aimed to prepare Glucono-δ-lactone (GDL)-induced Chlorella pyrenoidosa protein (CPP) hydrogel and further investigate the effect of polysaccharides on the mechanical properties and stability enhancement of the composite hydrogels. Polysaccharides composed of different ratios of low acyl gellan gum (GE) and guar gum (GU) imparted dense honeycomb-like networks and adjustable textural properties to the composite hydrogels induced by CaCl2. In particular, the hardness of hydrogels increased significantly from 14 to 833 g. Scanning electron microscopy results revealed that CPP-GE/GU composite hydrogels had better stable spatial porous structures. Moreover, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) indicated hydrogen bonding interaction between CPP and GE/GU. The composite network showed improved viscoelasticity, increased thermal stability, and self-healing ability of hydrogels. The composite hydrogels also showed high water holding (89-98%) and swelling (747-862%) properties compared to the pure CPP hydrogel. These findings further expand CPP hydrogel products and broaden application in plant protein-based food.

Abstract
To enhance the stability of anthocyanins under conditions such as light, temperature, and pH, an apricot polysaccharide hydrogel for anthocyanins encapsulation was prepared in this study. Apricot polysaccharides with different DEs were prepared by an alkaline de-esterification method. A gel was prepared by mixing the apricot polysaccharides with CaCl2 to encapsulate the anthocyanins; the encapsulation efficiency reached 69.52 ± 0.31 %. Additionally, the gel exhibited favorable hardness (144.17 ± 2.33 g) and chewiness (64.13 ± 1.53 g). Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and X-ray diffractometer (XRD) spectra confirmed that the formation of the hydrogel primarily relied on electrostatic interactions and hydrogen bonding. Compared with free anthocyanins, it was also found that the gel-encapsulated anthocyanins had a higher retention rate (RR) under different temperatures and light.

Abstract
The effect of adding apple high-methoxy pectin (HMP) (0-3 mg∙mL-1) on heat-induced gel characteristics of low concentration silver carp myofibrillar protein (MP) (15 mg∙mL-1) was studied. It was found that the hardness of gel increased by 20.6 times with adding 2 mg∙mL-1 HMP. Besides, HMP aided in the development of disulfide bonds and the aggregation of hydrophobic groups. During gel formation, the maximal storage modulus (G') of samples supplemented with 2 mg·mL-1 HMP was raised by a factor of 2.7. Of note, the images of SEM showed that protein and water were tightly combined with a proper amount of HMP and made its pores more uniform and dense. Meantime, the addition of moderate amounts of HMP enabled the formation of gels with favorable texture and performance at low concentration of MP was identified, which could provide a theoretical reference for the design and production of flesh low-calorie food gel.

Food Chem X 2024; 21:101184. [PMID: 38357369 PMCID: PMC10864197 DOI: 10.1016/j.fochx.2024.101184] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/06/2023] [Revised: 01/10/2024] [Accepted: 02/02/2024] [Indexed: 02/16/2024] Open
Abstract
Dextrans (DXs) are a group of natural polysaccharides with different branching patterns. Previous studies examining the effects of DXs on plant protein gels have only focused on α-(1 → 3)-branched DXs. Here, we compared the effects of α-(1 → 3)-branched DX L12 with those of two α-(1 → 2)-branched DXs on the properties of glucono-δ-lactone-induced faba bean protein isolate (FPI) gels. DX L12 showed stronger effects in decreasing gel hardness and enhancing gel viscoelasticity than the other two DXs. Moreover, DX L12 decreased the water-holding capacity of FPI gels, whereas the other DXs enhanced it. Microstructural analysis revealed that DX addition promoted phase separation during gel formation. However, FPI/L12 gels exhibited greater phase separation than the other two gels and contained larger void spaces. These differences could be attributed to the varying water adsorption and self-association properties of the DXs. These findings could guide the application of DX in the tailored preparation of plant protein gels.

Abstract
In order to improve the stability of bovine plasma protein-carboxymethyl cellulose composite gels and to expand the utilization of animal by-product resources, this study investigated the impact of different ultrasound powers (300, 400, 500, 600, and 700 W) and ultrasound times (0, 10, 20, 30, and 40 min) on the functional properties, secondary structure and intermolecular forces of bovine plasma protein-carboxymethyl cellulose composite gel. The results showed that moderate ultrasonication resulted in the enhancement of gel strength, water holding capacity and thermal stability of the composite gels, the disruption of hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions between gel molecules, the alteration and unfolding of the internal structure of the gels, and the stabilization of the dispersion state by electrostatic repulsive forces between the protein particles. The content of α-helices, β-turns, and β-sheets increased and the content of random curls decreased after sonication (p < 0.05). In summary, appropriate ultrasound power and time can significantly improve the functional and structural properties of composite gels. It was found that controlling the thermal aggregation behavior of composite gels by adjusting the ultrasonic power and time is an effective strategy to enable the optimization of composite gel texture and water retention properties.

Abstract
L-theanine (L-Th), a non-protein amino acid naturally found in teas and certain plant leaves, has garnered considerable attention due to its health benefits and potential to modify proteins such as ginkgo seed proteins, which have poor gelling properties, thereby expanding their applications in the food industry. The objective of this study was to investigate the impact of varying concentrations of L-Th (0.0%, 0.5%, 1.0%, and 2.0%) on the gelling properties of ginkgo seed protein isolate (GSPI) at various pH levels (5.0, 6.0, and 7.0). The GSPI gels exhibited the highest strength at a pH of 5.0 (132.1 ± 5.6 g), followed by a pH of 6.0 (95.9 ± 3.9 g), while a weak gel was formed at a pH of 7.0 (29.5 ± 0.2 g). The incorporation of L-Th increased the hardness (58.5-231.6%) and springiness (3.0-9.5%) of the GSPI gels at a pH of 7.0 in a concentration-dependent manner. However, L-Th did not enhance the gel strength or water holding capacity at a pH of 5.0. The rheological characteristics of the GSPI sols were found to be closely related to the textural properties of L-Th-incorporated gels. To understand the underlying mechanism of L-Th's effects, the physicochemical properties of the sols were analyzed. Specifically, L-Th promoted GSPI solubilization (up to 7.3%), reduced their hydrophobicity (up to 16.2%), reduced the particle size (up to 40.9%), and increased the ζ potential (up to 21%) of the sols. Overall, our findings suggest that L-Th holds promise as a functional ingredient for improving gel products.

Abstract
Superfine grinding (SG), as an innovative technology, was conducted to improve the physicochemical and structural properties of fruit pulps. Nectarine, apple, and honey peach were selected as the materials. With the increase in SG frequency, the soluble solids content, viscosity, D[4, 3], D[3, 2], G' and G″ of fruit pulps were evidently decreased, whereas the turbidity was increased. The smallest D[4, 3] (294.90 µm) and D[3, 2] (159.67 µm) were observed in nectarine pulp under SG at 50 Hz. The highest turbidity (266.33) was shown in honey peach pulp under SG at 50 Hz. The active groups of the fruit pulps with SG were exposed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). Notably, the excessive destruction in structure was confirmed in SG with 50 Hz. With soy protein isolate (SPI) addition, D[4, 3] and D[3, 2] of complexes decreased, whereas G' and G″ increased. The formation of new fruit pulp-SPI complexes was demonstrated by FT-IR and LF-NMR analysis. The dense and uniform structure was found in complexes prepared by SPI and fruit pulp with 30 Hz SG. Especially, apple-SPI complex with 30 Hz SG showed the highest water-holding capacity (WHC) (0.75) and adhesiveness (7973.00 g s). A significant correlation between fruit pulps and the complexes was revealed. Taken together, the impact of SG modification on fruit pulps would enhance WHC, rheology, and textural properties of the fruit pulp-SPI complexes, especially for SG with 30 Hz. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: This research provided a comprehensive exploration of the potential of SG technology to modify fruit pulps, solving the diversity of textural customization problems and offering valuable insights for the development of semisolid food products.

Abstract
The current study focused on creating natural hydrogels consisting of mixtures of avocado seed proteins dried with different techniques and locust bean gum. Proteins were extracted from avocado seed by alkali and isoelectric precipitation methods. Avocado seed proteins were dried by five different drying methods, namely ambient drying, oven drying, vacuum drying, freeze drying, and spray drying. FT-IR spectra were used to analyze the chemical structure of proteins dried using various techniques. Additionally, hydrogel models were constructed in the presence of avocado seed proteins and locust bean gum to clarify the effect of drying techniques on their hydrogelling ability. The impact of drying techniques on the functional behavior of hydrogels was notable. The maximum water holding capacity values were detected in the hydrogel system containing spray-dried proteins (93.79%), followed by freeze-dried (86.83%), vacuum-dried (76.17%), oven-dried (72.29%), and ambient-dried (64.8%) counterparts. The swelling ratio was 34.10, 33.51, 23.05, 18.93, and 14.39% for gels in the presence of freeze-dried, spray-dried, vacuum-dried, oven-dried, and ambient-dried proteins, respectively. Additionally, the desirable values for the amount of protein leaking from the systems prepared using spray-dried (7.99%) and freeze-dried (12.14%) proteins were obtained compared to others (ambient-dried: 24.03%; oven-dried: 17.69%; vacuum-dried: 19.10%). Superior results in terms of textural properties were achieved in hydrogel models containing spray-dried and freeze-dried proteins. In general, hydrogel models exhibited elastic behavior rather than viscous properties; however, the magnitudes of elasticity varied. Furthermore, the success of gels containing hydrogel models containing spray-dried protein and locust bean gum in the bioactive compound delivery system was obvious compared with protein ones alone.

[PMID: 37803804 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2023.113484] [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: 05/17/2023] [Revised: 09/12/2023] [Accepted: 09/13/2023] [Indexed: 10/08/2023]
Abstract
Black garlic is rich in brown pigments and Maillard reaction products are known for antioxidant activity and health promoting effects. In the present investigation, we report a facile strategy for fabricating low-fat innovative mayonnaise (IM) using black garlic particles (BGP) as a natural pigment, and a functional ingredient. Whey protein concentrate and high methoxyl pectin at optimized concentrations were utilized for fabricating an IM which served as a control. IM5 and IM10 were ternary composites constituting whey protein, high methoxyl pectin along with BGP (@5 and 10% respectively). The formulation IM10 (BGP @10%) showed high firmness and low spreadability quotient, hence IM5 was taken forward for fabrication for two more variants namely IM-J (using low methoxyl pectin (LMP) from jackfruit peels) and IM-C (LMP from citrus). The effect of BGP and LMP on the functional quality of IM was confirmed through zeta potential, antioxidant activity, textural, rheological, and microscopic evaluation. Fluorescence microscopy confirmed the presence of solid particles over the fat phase of IM, while interaction of pectin and whey proteins was demonstrated through fluorescence emission spectroscopy which clearly displayed stabilization of IM through the formation of Pickering emulsion. Pronounced difference in color and flavor score with BGP established high sensory scores in IM5, IM-J, and IM-C. Rheology supported the stabilizing effects of LMP in IM-J and IM-C in terms of speedy recovery of thixotropy, with recovering storage modulus (G'). Enhanced viscosity of IM-C and IM-J further corroborated the dual effect of LMP and BGP in improving emulsifying and functional quality of IM. Enhanced oxidative stability of IM was established by reduced peroxide and Totox values. Overall our results suggest the promising applications of black garlic as functional ingredient in protein and pectin based Pickering emulsions.

Polymers (Basel) 2023; 15:2834. [PMID: 37447480 DOI: 10.3390/polym15132834] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/03/2023] [Revised: 06/22/2023] [Accepted: 06/23/2023] [Indexed: 07/15/2023] Open
Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the effects of incorporating different concentrations of flaxseed gum (FG) into acid-induced soy protein isolate (SPI) gels. The investigation focused on assessing the effects of FG on the textural, rheological, and tribological properties of the resultant SPI gels. The results showed that adding a small amount of FG (0.05%) to the SPI gel system increased the storage modulus (G') and enhanced gelation while improving textural properties including hardness, viscosity, elasticity, and adhesion. Moreover, these gels exhibited strong water-holding capacity, a desirable property in various food products. However, when the concentration was increased to 0.3%, the WHC of the gel decreased, as did the hardness and cohesiveness. The particle size of the gel also increased with increasing concentration. Tribological investigations revealed that at 0.05-0.2% FG addition, the coefficient of friction (μ) of the composite gel was decreased compared to the pure SPI gel. In the sliding speed range of 1-100 mm/s, the coefficient of friction gradually increased with increasing concentration. When the FG concentration was 0.05%, the μ of the gel system was the lowest. In summary, low concentration of FG (0.05%) was found to play an important role in improving the properties of SPI gel, including enhancing textural, rheological, and lubricating properties.

Abstract
In this study, thyme essential oil (essential oil to total lipid: 14.23, 20, 25, and 33.33%)-burdened nanoliposomes with/without maltodextrin solution were infused with natural hydrogels fabricated using equal volumes (1:1, v/v) of pea protein (30%) and gum Arabic (1.5%) solutions. The production process of the solutions infused with gels was verified using FTIR spectroscopy. In comparison to the nanoliposome solution (NL1) containing soybean lecithin and essential oil, the addition of maltodextrin (molar ratio of lecithin to maltodextrin: 0.80, 0.40, and 0.20 for NL2, NL3, and NL4, respectively) to these solutions led to a remarkable shift in particle size (487.10-664.40 nm), negative zeta potential (23.50-38.30 mV), and encapsulation efficiency (56.25-67.62%) values. Distortions in the three-dimensional structure of the hydrogel (H2) constructed in the presence of free (uncoated) essential oil were obvious in the photographs when compared to the control (H1) consisting of a pea protein-gum Arabic matrix. Additionally, the incorporation of NL1 caused visible deformations in the gel (HNL1). Porous surfaces were dominant in H1 and the hydrogels (HNL2, HNL3, and HNL4) containing NL2, NL3, and NL4 in the SEM images. The most convenient values for functional behaviors were found in H1 and HNL4, followed by HNL3, HNL2, HNL1, and H2. This hierarchical order was also valid for mechanical properties. The prominent hydrogels in terms of essential oil delivery throughout the simulated gastrointestinal tract were HNL2, HNL3, and HNL4. To sum up, findings showed the necessity of mediators such as maltodextrin in the establishment of such systems.

Abstract
The effect of alkali-induced oxidation of three phenolic acids, namely gallic acid, epigallocatechin gallate, and tannic acid, on the structure and gelation of ginkgo seed protein isolate (GSPI) was investigated. A mixture of 12% (w/v) GSPI and different concentrations of alkali-treated phenolic acids (0, 0.06, 0.24, and 0.48% w/w) were heated at 90 °C, pH 6.0, for 30 min to form composite gels. The phenolic treatment decreased the hydrophobicity of the GSPI sol while enhancing their rheological properties. Despite a reduced protein solubility, water holding capacity, stiffness, and viscoelasticity of the gels were improved by the treatments. Among them, the modification effect of 0.24% (w/v) EGCG was the most prominent. Through the analysis of microstructure and composition, it was found to be due to the covalent addition, disulfide bond formation, etc., between the quinone derivatives of phenolic acids and the side chains of nucleophilic amino acids. Phenolic acid modification of GSPI may be a potential ingredient strategy in its processing.

Abstract
The current study concentrated on designing soy protein (SP)-based natural hydrogels in the presence of locust bean gum (LBG). For this, the gums were recovered from the kernel of the relevant plant and incorporated into SP gel models. Three more hydrogels were fabricated using commercial carbohydrates (gum Arabic (GA), maltodextrin (MD), and pectin (PC)) to decipher exactly the ability of LBG in these models. The chemical and morphological structures of the samples were elaborated by FTIR and SEM analyses. The coexistence of protein and carbohydrates led to an enhancement in functional (water holding capacity (WHC), swelling ratio, protein leachability, volumetric gel index (VGI)) and mechanical (textural and rheological behavior) features of natural gels compared to SP alone (control) but the quality of hydrogels was impressed by the carbohydrate type. Hydrogels designed with LBG came to the fore in terms of these attributes. Additionally, these gel models created awareness for phenolic delivery.

Abstract
pH-responsive in situ gelling properties of thiolated citrus high-methoxyl pectin (TCHMP) were investigated in this study. The gelation capacity results revealed that the in situ gelation behavior of TCHMP only occurred when the pH value was higher than 6.25. The gel strength increased from 26.63 g to 42.77 g as the pH value increased from 7.4 to 8.9. Rheological measurements confirmed that the apparent viscosity and viscoelasticity of TCHMP were highly dependent on pH value and dialysis time. Compared with the control group, the apparent viscosity of TCHMP dialyzed in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) of pH 8.9 for 180 min increased 695-fold. During the dialysis process of TCHMP at different pH values (7.4-8.9), the final thiol groups content decreased and the final disulfide bonds content increased with the increase in pH value. This illustrates that the mechanism of in situ gelation is mainly the oxidation of thiol-thiol groups to form disulfide bonds. These results can put forward new insights into the pH-responsive in situ gelling properties of TCHMP and provide a theoretical basis for the application of TCHMP in neutral and alkaline gel systems.

Abstract
In this study, the effects of pH value, mixing ratio and the Ca2+ concentration on the complex gelation of hawthorn pectin (HP) and Tenebrio Molitor protein (TMP) were investigated. The turbidity results showed that the composite gel had the maximum polymer concentration when the mixing ratio was 2:1 and the pH value was 3.35. The rheological measurement results showed that TMP/HP (15 mmol/L) hydrogel (THIH) had the highest storage modulus and loss modulus, indicating that the properties of the hydrogel at this Ca2+ concentration had been significantly improved. The results of scanning electron microscope and pore size also proved that the network structure prepared under this condition was compact and uniform, the pore size was small, which was beneficial to the entrapment of active components. Subsequently, in order to explore the storage stability and antioxidant activity of THIH-loaded curcumin in simulated gastrointestinal environment, in vitro simulated digestion experiment was carried out and satisfactory results were obtained. To sum up, THIH was a promising delivery system with broad application prospects, which was expected to provide a novel idea for the entrapment and delivery of active components.

Abstract
Inulin and glutathione (GSH) are combined to treat myofibrillar proteins (MP). GSH significantly suppresses oxidation-induced carbonylation and protein insolubility. Inulin, GSH and their combination improve the gelling properties of oxidized MP. Treatment with inulin + GSH shows the best oxidative stability and textural characteristics.
The effects of inulin (1.5%), glutathione (GSH, 0.05%), and their combination (1.5% inulin + 0.05% GSH) on the conformational structure and gel performance of pork myofibrillar protein (MP) under oxidation condition were examined. The addition of GSH significantly prevented oxidation-induced carbonylation, reduction of α-helix content, and protein aggregation. As a result, treatment with GSH significantly reduced the particle size of oxidized MP by 35%, increased the solubility by 17.3%, and improved the gelling properties. The presence of inulin also obviously enhanced the gelling behavior of MP under oxidation condition, although it could hardly inhibit the modification of MP structure caused by oxidation. Treatment with inulin + GSH exhibited the highest cooking yield (84.2%) and the best textural characteristics, with a denser and more uniform network structure comprising evenly distributed small pores. The findings of this study provide a useful method for processing meat protein gel products with better oxidative stability and textural properties.

Abstract
This study investigated the possibility of using a phase separation, mixing, and enzymatic gelation approach to construct seafood analogs from plant protein-polysaccharide mixtures with properties mimicking real seafood. Heat-denatured pea protein (10%, w/w) and pectin (0–1%, w/w) were mixed to produce phase separated biopolymer blends. These blends were then subjected to mild shearing (350 rpm) to obtain fiber-like structures, which were then placed in molds and set by gelling the pea proteins using transglutaminase (2%, w/w). The appearance, texture, and cooking properties of the resulting scallop analogs were characterized and compared to those of real scallop. The presence of the pectin promoted the formation of a honeycomb structure in the scallop analogs, and microscopic orientation of the proteins was observed in the plane parallel to the applied shear flow. Lower pectin concentrations (0.5%, w/w) led to stronger gels with better water holding capacity than higher ones (1.0%, w/w). The appearance and texture of the plant-based scallop analogs were like those of real scallop after grilling, indicating the potential of using this soft matter physics approach to create plant-based seafood analogs. One of the main advantages of this method is that it does not require any expensive dedicated equipment, such as an extruder or shear cell technology, which may increase its commercial viability.

Abstract
Protein calories consumed by people all over the world approximate 15-20% of their energy intake. This makes protein a major nutritional imperative. Today, we are facing an unprecedented challenge to produce and distribute adequate protein to feed over nine billion people by 2050, in an environmentally sustainable and affordable way. Plant-based proteins present a promising solution to our nutritional needs due to their long history of crop use and cultivation, lower cost of production, and easy access in many parts of the world. However, plant proteins have comparatively poor functionality, defined as poor solubility, foaming, emulsifying, and gelling properties, limiting their use in food products. Relative to animal proteins, including dairy products, plant protein technology is still in its infancy. To bridge this gap, advances in plant protein ingredient development and the knowledge to construct plant-based foods are sorely needed. This review focuses on some salient features in the science and technology of plant proteins, providing the current state of the art and highlighting new research directions. It focuses on how manipulating plant protein structures during protein extraction, fractionation, and modification can considerably enhance protein functionality. To create novel plant-based foods, important considerations such as protein-polysaccharide interactions, the inclusion of plant protein-generated flavors, and some novel techniques to structure plant proteins are discussed. Finally, the attention to nutrition as a compass to navigate the plant protein roadmap is also considered.
