An D, Li L. Effects of molecular weight of hydrolysate on the formation of soy protein isolate hydrolysate nanofibrils: Kinetics, structures, and interactions. Food Chem 2024; 456:139687. [PMID: 38889496 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.139687] [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: 11/19/2023] [Revised: 04/30/2024] [Accepted: 05/13/2024] [Indexed: 06/20/2024]
Abstract
Enzymatic hydrolysis prior to protein fibrillation was an effective way to facilitate the formation of nanofibrils. This study aimed to investigate the effects of molecular weights of hydrolysate on the kinetics, structures, and interactions of soy protein isolate (SPI) hydrolysate nanofibrils. The results showed that hydrolysate with molecular weight > 10 kDa showed a distinct fibrillation kinetics curve and a higher apparent rate constant (27.72) during fibrillation, indicating their vital role in determining the fibrillation. Hydrolysate with molecular weight > 10 kDa could form nanofibrils with higher radius gyration (17.11 ± 0.77 Å) due to stronger hydrophobic interaction, showing a stronger fibrillation ability. Hydrolysate with molecular weight within 5-10 kDa exhibited enhanced π-π stacking interactions during fibrillation, thereby promoting the extension of nanofibrils, and contributing to the formation of more nanofibrils. Hydrolysate with molecular weight < 5 kDa tended to randomly aggregate during fibrillation, resulting in a significant loss of cross-β structures in nanofibrils. Therefore, hydrolysate with different molecular weights exhibited synergistic effects during fibrillation.

Abstract
This study aimed to improve mung bean protein's gelation qualities via microbial transglutaminase (mTGase) cross-linking. The mTGase treatment significantly improved gel hardness and storage modulus (G') at higher enzyme levels (2 IU/g), peaking hardness at 3 h. The scanning electron microscopy imaging demonstrated more cross-linked structures at 2 IU/g, evolving into a dense network by 3 h. The water-holding capacity for mTGase-treated samples (2 IU/g, 3 h, 55 °C) tripled to 3.77 ± 0.06 g/g versus control (1.24 ± 0.02 g/g), alongside a 15 % decrease in zeta potential (-30.84 ± 0.901 mV versus control's -26.63 ± 0.497 mV) and an increase in emulsifying activity index to 4.519 ± 0.004 m2/g from 3.79 ± 0.01 m2/g (control). The confocal images showed a more uniform lipid droplet distribution in mTGase-treated samples, suggesting enhanced emulsifying activity. Thus, mTGase treatment significantly improved gel strength and emulsifying properties, making it ideal for plant-based seafood products.

Abstract
Alkali-induced preserved egg gel formation is a dynamic process that involves complex protein changes. Ovomucin (OVM) is closely associated with the gel properties of egg white. In this study, the effect of OVM in alkali-induced egg white gel (AEWG) formation was investigated. The results suggested that OVM reduced the gel formation time by 15 %. The mechanical properties of the fully formed gel were also improved by OVM. Specifically, OVM increased the storage modulus (G') of the gel by 1.5-fold, while the hardness significantly increased from 78.90 ± 4.24 g to 99.80 ± 9.23 g. Low-field nuclear magnetic resonance (LF-NMR) demonstrated that OVM significantly shortened T23 relaxation time and reduced the water mobility, thus increasing the water holding capacity (WHC). Meanwhile, the presence of OVM resulted in a more homogeneous and denser microscopic morphology of the gel. Selective solubility experiments revealed that disulfide bonds are the primary force in gel formation. OVM promoted the formation of more disulfide bonds, which increased the strength and stability of the gel network. Overall, this research proved OVM plays a critical role in the performance improvement of AEWG, which provides a new insight into the quality control of preserved egg and protein gel foods.

Development of pea protein nanoparticle/hydrolyzed rice glutelin fibril emulsion gels for encapsulation of curcumin. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 276:133640.

Abstract
The potential of using emulsion gels stabilized by binary plant protein nanoparticle mixtures for the encapsulation and delivery of lipophilic nutraceuticals was evaluated. The particle characteristics, physical stability, water diffusivity, microrheology, large amplitude oscillating shear (LAOS) properties, and in vitro digestion of emulsion gels prepared by different ratios of hydrolyzed rice glutelin fibrils (HRGFs) and pea protein nanoparticle (PNP) were characterized. The emulsion gel with P/H = 2:1 (0.84 μm) exhibited the best storage stability and freeze-thaw stability, as seen by the smaller oil droplet size (1.02 and 1.42 μm, respectively). Low-field pulsed NMR indicated that the majority of water in samples was highly mobile. All the samples were predominantly elastic-like materials. The P/H 2:1 emulsion gel had the lowest FI value (6.21 × 10-4 Hz), the highest MVI value (5.57 s/nm2), G'/ G″ values and enclosed area, showing that it had denser 3D network structures, higher stiffness values, and a high sensitivity to changes in strain. Additionally, P/H 2:1 emulsion gel had a relatively high lipid digestibility (96.1 %), curcumin bioaccessibility (58.9 %), and curcumin stability (94.2 %). This study showed that emulsion gels stabilized by binary protein nanoparticle mixtures (PNP/HRGF) have potential as edible delivery systems for lipophilic nutraceuticals.

Abstract
Novel insights into the stability of milk and milk products during storage and processing result from describing caseins near neutral pH as hydrophilic, intrinsically disordered, proteins. Casein solubility is strongly influenced by pH and multivalent ion binding. Solubility is high at a neutral pH or above, but decreases as the casein net charge approaches zero, allowing a condensed casein phase or gel to form, then increases at lower pH. Of particular importance for casein micelle stability near neutral pH is the proportion of free caseins in the micelle (i.e., caseins not bound directly to nanoclusters of calcium phosphate). Free caseins are more soluble and better able to act as molecular chaperones (to prevent casein and whey protein aggregation) than bound caseins. Some free caseins are highly phosphorylated and can also act as mineral chaperones to inhibit the growth of calcium phosphate phases and prevent mineralized deposits from forming on membranes or heat exchangers. Thus, casein micelle stability is reduced when free caseins bind to amyloid fibrils, destabilized whey proteins or calcium phosphate. The multivalent-binding model of the casein micelle quantitatively describes these and other factors affecting the stability of milk and milk protein products during manufacture and storage.

Abstract
Many food proteins can be assembled into nanofibrils under pH conditions far from the isoelectric point and with a low ionic strength by heating them for a long period. These food protein nanofibrils (FPN) have outstanding functional and biological properties and are considered sustainable biomaterials in many fields. In this study, we review the recent developments in FPN gels and introduce the key factors in promoting food protein self-assembly in order to create functional gels. The major variables discussed are the morphology of nanofibrils, protein concentration, heating time, and the type and concentration of salts. We also highlight current advances in the formation and properties of different types of FPN gels. In addition, the various applications of FPN gels in bioactive and nutrient delivery, adsorbents for CO2 and toxic pollutants, cell scaffolding biomaterials, biosensors, and others are introduced and discussed.

Abstract
The differences in the gelling properties of soy protein isolate (SPI) and soy protein isolate amyloid fibrils (SAFs) as well as the role of cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) in regulating their gel behaviors were investigated in this study. The binding of CNC to β-conglycinin (7S), glycinin (11S), and SAFs was predominantly driven by non-covalent interactions. CNC addition reduced the particle size, turbidity, subunit segments, and crystallinity of SPI and SAFs, promoted the conversion of α-helix to β-sheet, improved the thermal stability, exposed more tyrosine and tryptophan residues, and enhanced the intermolecular interactions. A more regular and ordered lamellar network structure was formed in the SAFs-CNC composite gel, which could be conducive to the improvement of gel quality. This study would provide theoretical reference for the understanding of the regulatory mechanism of protein amyloid fibrils gelation as well as the high-value utilization of SAFs-CNC complex as a functional protein-based material or food ingredient in food field.

Abstract
Plant protein fibrils have recently attracted considerable attention due to their superior mechanical and interfacial properties. The objective of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of low-frequency magnetic field (LF-MF) pretreatment in enhancing the conversion and functional characteristics of the amyloid-like fibrils derived from pea globulin (PG), which was considered a sustainable hypoallergenic protein. The results showed that LF-MF-treated PG (MPG) assembled into longer amyloid-like fibrils compared with native PG (NPG). The MPG presented similar gelling, emulsifying, and foaming properties to the NPG, while the fibril samples exhibited significantly improved functional properties. Moreover, the amyloid-like fibrils generated from the MPG (MPGF) showed large aspect ratios accompanied by superior solubility, molecular flexibility, emulsion stability, and gelling properties. The improved functional properties of the amyloid-like fibrils generated from the MPG can provide a promising outlook for expanding the applications of the PG in food, medicine and other fields.

Abstract
In order to investigate the effects of black rice extract (BE) on the composition of oxidized myofibrillar protein (MP) gel, different concentrations of BE (0, 10, 20, 50 mg g-1) were analyzed experimentally. Results revealed that the addition of small doses of BE significantly inhibited the formation of carbonyl groups in oxidized MP, and improved surface hydrophobicity and gel water holding capacity. Additionally, 10 and 20 mg g-1 BE increased the ordered structure of oxidized MP. Furthermore, dynamic rheometer results showed a significant increase in the storage modulus (G') of oxidized MP with 10 and 20 mg g-1 BE during heating. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) showed that MP formed a denser network structure with addition of 10 and 20 mg g-1 BE. Low-Field Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (LF-NMR) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed that there is a significant increase in immobile water in MP gel and a decrease in free water within the 20 mg g-1 BE group. In conclusion, 20 mg g-1 supplemented BE significantly improved the structure order and hardness of oxidized MP gel, increased its structure density and water holding capacity, and it provides a theoretical basis for the application of antioxidants in meat products.

Abstract
Soy protein isolate (SPI) has become a promising plant-based material as an animal protein products alternative. However, its application was limited due to the weak gelling properties. To investigate the effect of kefir fermentation on SPI gels properties, SPI-polysaccharide gels was produced by unfermented and kefir-fermented SPI using different concentration of KGM, chitosan, and calcium chloride in this study. Characterization of fermented SPI gels showed that fermentation by kefir grains can be applied to improve the textural strength, mechanical structure, and thermal characteristics of SPI gels. Compared to unfermented SPI gels, the water-holding capacity was remarkably enhanced to 63.11% and 65.71% in fermented SPI-chitosan gels. Moreover, the hardness of fermented SPI-KGM gels were significantly increased to 13.43 g and 27.11 g. And the cohesiveness and resilience of fermented-KGM gels were also improved than unfermented samples. Results of rheological characterization and thermogravimetric analysis revealed the strengthened mechanical features and higher thermal stability of fermented SPI gels. Additionally, the main role of hydrophobic interactions and secondary structure variations of SPI gels were demonstrated by intermolecular force measurements, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction. Moreover, the network structure was observed more compact and homogeneous performed by microstructural images in fermented SPI gels. Therefore, this research provided a novel approach combining multi-species fermentation with protein gelation to prepare SPI gel materials with improved nutrition and structural properties.

Abstract
Ohmic heating (OH) is an alternative sustainable heating technology that has demonstrated its potential to modify protein structures and aggregates. Furthermore, certain protein aggregates, namely amyloid fibrils (AF), are associated with an enhanced protein functionality, such as gelation. This study evaluates how Ohmic heating (OH) influences the formation of AF structures from ovalbumin source under two electric field strength levels, 8.5 to 10.5 and 24.0-31.0 V/cm, respectively. Hence, AF aggregate formation was assessed over holding times ranging from 30 to 1200 sunder various environmental conditions (3.45 and 67.95 mM NaCl, 80, 85 and 90 °C, pH = 7). AF were formed under all conditions. SDS-PAGE revealed that OH had a higher tendency to preserve native ovalbumin molecules. Furthermore, Congo Red and Thioflavin T stainings indicated that OH reduces the amount of AF structures. This finding was supported by FTIR measurements, which showed OH samples to contain lower amounts of beta-sheets. Field flow fractioning revealed smaller-sized aggregates or aggregate clusters occurred after OH treatment. In contrast, prolonged holding time or higher treatment temperatures increased ThT fluorescence, beta-sheet structures and aggregate as well as cluster sizes. Ionic strength was found to dominate the effects of electric field strength under different environmental conditions.

[PMID: 37375423 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28124868] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2023] [Revised: 06/15/2023] [Accepted: 06/16/2023] [Indexed: 06/29/2023] Open
Abstract
This study investigates the rheological properties of dual-network hydrogels based on acrylamide and sodium alginate under large deformations. The concentration of calcium ions affects the nonlinear behavior, and all gel samples exhibit strain hardening, shear thickening, and shear densification. The paper focuses on systematic variation of the alginate concentration-which serves as second network building blocks-and the Ca2+-concentration-which shows how strongly they are connected. The precursor solutions show a typical viscoelastic solution behavior depending on alginate content and pH. The gels are highly elastic solids with only relatively small viscoelastic components, i.e., their creep and creep recovery behavior are indicative of the solid state after only a very short time while the linear viscoelastic phase angles are very small. The onset of the nonlinear regime decreases significantly when closing the second network (alginate) upon adding Ca2+, while at the same time the nonlinearity parameters (Q0, I3/I1, S, T, e3/e1, and v3/v1) increase significantly. Further, the tensile properties are significantly improved by closing the alginate network by Ca2+ at intermediate concentrations.

Abstract
In the context of a diet transition from animal protein to plant protein, both for sustainable and healthy scopes, innovative plant-based foods are being developing. A combination with milk proteins has been proposed as a strategy to overcome the scarce functional and sensorial properties of plant proteins. Based on this mixture were designed several colloidal systems such as suspensions, gels, emulsions, and foams which can be found in many food products. This review aims to give profound scientific insights on the challenges and opportunities of developing such binary systems which could soon open a new market category in the food industry. The recent trends in the formulation of each colloidal system, as well as their limits and advantages are here considered. Lastly, new approaches to improve the coexistence of both milk and plant proteins and how they affect the sensorial profile of food products are discussed.

Abstract
Emulsified meat products are key deep-processing products due to unique flavor and high nutritional value. Myosin dissolves, and protein aggregation and heat-induced gelation occur after myosin unfolds and hydrophobic groups are exposed. Myosin could form interfacial protein membranes and wrap fat globules. Emulsified fat globules may be filled in heat-induced gel networks. Therefore, this review intends to discuss the influences of heat-induced gelation and interfacial adsorption behavior on oil and water retention. Firstly, the mechanism of heat-induced gelation was clarified from the perspective of protein conformation and micro-structure. Secondly, the mechanism of emulsification stability and its factors affecting interfacial adsorption were demonstrated as well as limitations and challenges. Finally, the structure characteristics and application of multi-layer hydrogels in the gelation and emulsification were clarified. It could conclude that the characteristic morphology, spatial conformation and structure adjustment affected heat-induced gelation and interfacial adsorption behavior. Spatial conformation and microstructure were adjusted to improve the oil and water retention by pH, ionic strength, amino acid, oil phase characteristic and protein interaction. Multi-layer hydrogels facilitated oil and water retention. The comprehensive review of gelation and emulsification mechanisms could promote the development of meat products and improvement of meat processing technology.

Abstract
Enhancing the bio-based hydrogels strength is fundamental to extend their engineering applications. In this study, high strength cold-set sodium alginate/whey protein nanofiber (SA/WPN) double network hydrogels were prepared and their interaction with curcumin (Cur) was studied. Our results indicated that the rheological and textural properties of SA/WPN double network hydrogels were enhanced with increasing WPN by forming SA-COO--Ca2+--OOC-WPN bridge through electrostatic interactions. The storage modulus (768.2 Pa), hardness (273.3 g), adhesiveness (318.7 g·sec) and cohesiveness (0.464) of SA/WPN50 (WPN concentration of 50 mg/mL) double network hydrogels were 3.75, 2.26, 3.76 and 2.19 times higher than those of SA hydrogels, respectively. Cur was combined with SA/WPN hydrogels through hydrogen bonding, van der Waals forces and hydrophobic interactions with an encapsulation efficiency of 91.6 ± 0.8 %, and the crystalline state was changed after binding. In conclusion, SA/WPN double network hydrogels can be enhanced by the addition of WPN and have potential as carriers for hydrophobic bioactive substances.

Abstract
The effects of lysozyme on egg white gel properties and their underlying causes were investigated under comparison between lysozyme removed with ion exchange resin and three levels of commercial lysozyme powder (1/2, 2/2, 3/2 the natural concentration in egg white) re-added in the lysozyme-removed system. Results showed that a lysozyme-removed gel obtained the best water holding capacity (61.61 %), lowest cooking loss (11.85 %), and enhanced textural properties (hardness, 638.04 g; resilience, 0.57; and gumminess), which was attributed to lysozyme promoting protein aggregation and weakening electrostatic repulsion by charge neutralization and competition for water, and this could be eliminated by removing lysozyme. Besides, the stronger intermolecular interactions (enhanced ionic bonds, hydrogen bonds and inhibited hydrophobic interactions), the shorter transverse relaxation time (T21 and T22), as well as more uniform microstructure formed in the lysozyme-removed gel, allowing the gels to bind more water molecules. With return of lysozyme, the gel properties were weakened to varying degrees, which was also ascribed to the filling of lysozyme in gel matrix narrowed interspace for binding and storage of water. In sum, adjustment on the content of lysozyme can regulate the gel properties of egg white, so as to obtain gels with regulable gel quality and processing characteristics.

Abstract
In this work, the effects of calcium chloride (CaCl2) concentration on the creep-recovery, linear and nonlinear rheological behavior of nanocellulose gels had been investigated to quantify gel properties. The absolute zeta potential of nanocellulose gels were decreased as the CaCl2 concentration increased, which was related to the electrostatic repulsion that origin from carboxyl group could be effectively screened with increasing CaCl2 concentration. Rheological measurements further confirmed this result for nanocellulose gels, which revealed that the increased modulus and viscoelastic properties were obtained in the presence of CaCl2. The rheological properties of nanocellulose gels were showed to depend on CaCl2 concentration. The enhanced gel network structure was related to the Ca2+ ions that promoted crosslink between nanocellulose by salt bridge. This work highlighted the potential of using electrostatic complexation between nanocellulose and Ca2+ ions to form gels, and demonstrated the tunability of the rheological behavior by adjusting the concentration of CaCl2.

Abstract
The combination of fiber and hydrogel in a system can provide substantial benefits for both components, including the development of three-dimensional structures for the fiber, followed by modifications in the rheological and mechanical properties of the hydrogel. Despite a large increase in the use of fiber-hydrogel composites (FHCs) in various sciences and industries such as biomedicine, tissue engineering, cosmetics, automotive, textile, and agriculture, there is limited information about FHCs in the realm of food application. In this regard, this study reviews the mechanism of FHCs. The force transmission between fiber and hydrogel, which depends on the interactions between them during loading, is the main reason to enhance the mechanical properties of FHCs. Moreover, articles about such FHCs that have the potential for foods or food industries have been described. Additionally, the information gaps about edible FHCs were highlighted for further research. Finally, the methods of fiber formation have been summarized.
