Lin X, Cao Z, Zhang J, Mu G, Jiang S. Characteristics of the Mixed Yogurt Fermented from Cow-Soy Milk in the Presence of Transglutaminase. Foods 2024; 13:2120. [PMID: 38998626 PMCID: PMC11241760 DOI: 10.3390/foods13132120] [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: 04/21/2024] [Revised: 06/02/2024] [Accepted: 06/05/2024] [Indexed: 07/14/2024] Open
Abstract
The mixed yogurt was fermented from Cow-Soy milk and modified by transglutaminase (TG). The effects of mixed milk and TG on the quality characteristics of mixed yogurt were investigated by texture characteristics, rheology (rheometer) and structure (scanning electron microscopy). The findings revealed that the mixed yogurt with 50% cow milk exhibited lower hardness, viscosity and consistency. Furthermore, when TG was added, the yogurt showed better rheological properties, sensory score and a more stable microstructure. Compared with the samples without TG modification, the viscosity and cohesiveness of the modified samples increased by 10% and 100%, respectively. The combination of cow milk and soy milk improved the texture of yogurt, and the TG addition further improved the physicochemical properties of yogurt. This finding provided a meaningful reference for the development of mixed yogurt with a suitable taste from animal and plant milk, and laid a basis for the practical application of mixed yogurt in the dairy industry, which will meet the requirements for dairy products for consumers in future.

Improved analysis of 230 pesticide residues in three fermented soy products by using automated one-step accelerated solvent extraction coupled with GC-MS/MS. J Chromatogr A 2024; 1723:464906. [PMID: 38643739 DOI: 10.1016/j.chroma.2024.464906] [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: 03/20/2024] [Revised: 04/08/2024] [Accepted: 04/10/2024] [Indexed: 04/23/2024]
Abstract
Consumer concerns over healthy diets are increasing as a result of the toxicity and persistence of pesticide residues in foodstuffs. Developing sensitive and high-throughput monitoring techniques for these trace residues is seen as an essential step in ensuring food safety. An automatic and sensitive multi-residue analytical method was developed and validated for the simultaneous determination of 230 compounds, including pesticides and their hazardous metabolites, in fermented soy products. The method included preparing the sample using on-line extraction and clean-up system based on accelerated solvent extraction (ASE), then determining the analytes using GC-MS/MS techniques. The homogenized samples (soy sauce, douchi, and sufu) were automatically extracted at 80 °C and 10.3 MPa and at the same time, in situ cleaned by 300 mg of primary secondary amine (PSA) combined with 20 mg of hydroxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes in an extraction cell. The method obtained excellent calibration linearity (r > 0.9220) and a satisfactory analysis of the targeted compounds, which were evaluated with matrix-matched calibration standards over the range of 5-500 μg L-1. The limit of detections (LODs) of analytes were in the range of 0.01-1.29 μg kg-1, 0.01-1.39 μg kg-1, and 0.01-1.34 μg kg-1 in soy sauce, douchi, and sufu, respectively. The limit of quantifications (LOQs), which defined as the lowest spiking level, were set at 5.0 μg kg-1. The recoveries were within 70-120 % for over 95 % of the analytes, and the relative standard deviations (RSDs) were below 13.6 %. Moreover, a positive detection rate of 47 % were obtained when the proposed method was used on 15 real fermented soy products. These results suggested that the developed high-throughput method is highly feasible for monitoring of these target analytes in trace level.

[PMID: 38760132 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2024.114199] [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: 12/19/2023] [Revised: 02/27/2024] [Accepted: 03/03/2024] [Indexed: 05/19/2024]
Abstract
In this study, we conducted an analysis of the differences in nutrient composition and protein structure among various fermented soybean products and their impacts on the gut microbiota of rats. Conventional physicochemical analysis was employed to analyze the fundamental physicochemical composition of the samples. Additionally, we utilized high-performance liquid chromatography and ELISA techniques to quantify the presence of antinutritional compounds. Fourier infrared spectroscopy was applied to delineate the protein structure, while 16 s rRNA gene sequencing was conducted to evaluate alterations in gut microbiota abundance. Subsequently, KEGG was utilized for metabolic pathway analysis. Our findings revealed that fermented soybean products improved the nutritional profile of soybeans. Notably, Douchi exhibited the highest protein content at 52.18 g/100 g, denoting a 26.58 % increase, whereas natto showed a 24.98 % increase. Douchi and natto demonstrated the most substantial relative amino acid content, comprising 50.86 % and 49.04 % of the total samples, respectively. Moreover, the levels of antinutritional factors markedly decreased post-fermentation. Specifically, the α-helix content in doujiang decreased by 13.87 %, while the random coil content in soybean yogurt surged by 132.39 %. Rats that were fed FSP showcased notable enhancements in gut microbiota and associated metabolic pathways. A strong correlation was observed between nutrient composition, protein structure, and gut microbiota abundance. This study furnishes empirical evidence supporting the heightened nutritional attributes of FSPs.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to identify ovalbumin-derived immunomodulatory peptides by in vitro cell experiments, de novo sequencing, and molecular docking. Ovalbumin hydrolysates were prepared by two enzymes (alkaline protease and papain) individually, sequentially, or simultaneously, respectively. The simultaneous enzymatic hydrolysate (OVAH) had a high degree of hydrolysis (38.12 ± 0.48%) and exhibited immune-enhancing and anti-inflammatory activities. A total of 160 peptides were identified by LC-MS/MS in OVAH. Three novel peptides NVMEERKIK, ADQARELINS, and WEKAFKDE bound to TLR4-MD2 through hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions with high binding affinity and binding energies of -181.40, -178.03, and -168.12 kcal/mol, respectively. These three peptides were synthesized and validated for two-way immunomodulatory activity. NVMEERKIK exhibiting the strongest immunomodulatory activity, increased NO and TNF-α levels by 128.69 and 38.01%, respectively, in normal RAW264.7 cells and reduced NO and TNF-α levels by 27.31 and 39.13%, respectively, in lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammatory RAW264.7 cells. Overall, this study first revealed that ovalbumin could be used as an immunomodulatory source for controlling inflammatory factor secretion.

Abstract
Functional beverages play an essential role in our modern life and contribute to nutritional well-being. Current efforts to understand and develop functional beverages to promote health and wellness have been enhanced. The present study aimed to investigate the production of three fermented plants beverages (FPBs) from aromatic and medicinal plants and to evaluate the fermented product in terms of physio-biochemical composition, the aromatic compounds, antioxidant activity, and in vivo protective effects on hepatotoxicity and nephrotoxicity induced by carbon tetrachloride (CCl4). The results showed that the fermented beverage NurtBio B had the highest levels of polyphenols, flavonoids, and tannins; 242.3 ± 12.4 µg GAE/mL, 106.4 ± 7.3 µg RE/mL and 94.2 ± 5.1 µg CE/mL, respectively. The aromatic profiles of the fermented beverages showed thirty-one interesting volatile compounds detected by GC-MS headspace analyses such as benzaldehyde, Eucalyptol, Fenchone, 3-Octadecyne, Estragole, and Benzene propanoic acid 1-methylethyl ester. In addition, the fermentation process was significantly improved, indicating its great potential as a functional food with both strong antioxidant activity and good flavor. In vivo administration of CCl4 in mice induced hepatotoxicity and nephrotoxicity by a significant rise in the levels of serum liver and kidney biomarkers. The protective effects of the FPBs showed that they significantly restored the majority of these biological parameters to normal levels, along with increase antioxidant enzyme activities, as well as an improvement of histopathological changes, suggesting their protective effects.

Abstract
SCOPE Lactic acid bacteria with probiotic functions and their fermentation products play a role in regulating ulcerative colitis (UC). This study investigates the potential role of fermented soymilk (FSM4) rich in isoflavones on DSS-induced UC. METHODS AND RESULTS Mice received 3% DSS and are supplemented daily once for 1 week by NFSM and FSM4. DSS usually causes intestinal inflammation and alters the gut microbiota. FSM4 intervention improves the UC-related inflammation and gut microbiota alteration. It considerably decreases pro-inflammatories such as TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 in serum and COX-2 and MPO in colon tissues and pathogenic bacteria (Escherichia-Shigella). This facilitates gut-healthy bacteria growth. These healthy bacteria negatively correlat with pro-inflammatory factors but positively associated with acetic acid, butyric acid, and propionic acid, which may act for PPAR-γ pathway activating and NF-κB p65 pathway inhibiting, lowering the risk of UC. Overall, FSM4 might alleviate UC and significantly reverse the dysbiosis of gut microbiota via the PPAR-γ activation. It could be a good alternative for developing functional food to protect against UC. CONCLUSION FSM4 attenuates intestinal inflammation and modulates the SCFA-producing bacteria growth, which enable the PPAR-γ activation to alleviate the UC target, which could be a dietary intervention strategy for gut health.

Abstract
Fermented soy foods can effectively improve the unpleasant odor of soybean and reduce its anti-nutritional factors while forming aromatic and bioactive compounds. However, a differential analysis of characteristic flavor and function among different fermented soy foods has yet to be conducted. In this study, a systematic comparison of different fermented soy foods was performed using E-nose, HS-SMPE-GC×GC-MS, bioactivity validation, and correlation analysis. The results showed that soy sauce and natto flavor profiles significantly differed from other products. Esters and alcohols were the main volatile substances in furu, broad bean paste, douchi, doujiang, and soy sauce, while pyrazine substances were mainly present in natto. Phenylacetaldehyde contributed to the sweet aroma of furu, while 1-octene-3-ol played a crucial role in the flavor formation of broad bean paste. 2,3-Butanediol and ethyl phenylacetate contributed fruity and honey-like aromas to douchi, doujiang, and soy sauce, respectively, while benzaldehyde played a vital role in the flavor synthesis of douchi. All six fermented soy foods demonstrated favorable antioxidative and antibacterial activities, although their efficacy varied significantly. This study lays the foundation for elucidating the mechanisms of flavor and functionality formation in fermented soy foods, which will help in the targeted development and optimization of these products.

Abstract
Whey protein hydrolysate from Binglangjiang buffalo, a unique genetic resource, has anti-inflammatory activity, but its anti-inflammatory composition and effects are unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate the anti-inflammatory peptides from Binglangjiang buffalo whey protein hydrolysate. A total of 1483 peptides were identified using LC-MS/MS, and 12 peptides were chosen for chemical synthesis using peptidomics, and then two novel anti-inflammatory peptides (DQPFFHYN (DN8) and YSPFSSFPR (YR9)) were screened out using LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells. The molecular weights of DN8 and YR9 with β-turn conformations were 1067.458 Da and 1087.52 Da, respectively, and showed a high in-vitro safety profile and thermal stability, but were intolerant to pepsin. Furthermore, ELISA and Western blot analysis indicated that peptides DN8 and YR9 significantly suppressed the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines NO, TNF-α, and IL-6 and the expression of mediators iNOS, TNF-α, and IL-6 in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells. The study provides insights into the development of novel food-based anti-inflammatory nutritional supplements.

Abstract
Soybean compounds have been established to modulate inflammation, but less is known about how whole soybean compositions work together after digestion. The objective was to evaluate and compare the anti-inflammatory responses of different soybean varieties under simulated gastrointestinal digestion, with additional consideration of the glycinin:β-conglycinin ratio (GBR). Soybean colonic digests (SCD) inhibited cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 (25-82%), 5-lipoxidase (LOX) (18-35%), and inducible nitric oxide (iNOS) (8-61%). Varieties 88, GN3, and 93 were the most effective inhibitors. SCD (1 mg/mL) of varieties 81 and GN1 significantly (p < 0.05) reduced nitrite production by 44 and 47%, respectively, compared to lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated macrophages. SCD effectively reduced pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin (IL)-6 (50 and 80% for 96 and GN1, respectively). Western blot results showed a decrease in the expression of iNOS, p65, and p50. The GBR was in the range of 0.05-1.57. Higher ratio correlated with higher production of IL-1β (r = 0.44) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α, r = 0.56). Inflammatory microarray results showed a significant decrease in expression of markers granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and IL-6 in cells treated with GN1 SCD compared to LPS. The results suggested that SCD exerted its anti-inflammatory potential through nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κΒ) pathway inhibition by decreasing the levels of NF-κB-dependent cytokines and subunits, and inhibition of pro-inflammatory enzyme activity.

Abstract
Obstructive jaundice (OJ) is a common problem in daily clinical practice. However, completely understanding the pathophysiological changes in OJ remains a challenge for planning current and future management. The effects of OJ are widespread, affecting the biliary tree, hepatic cells, liver function, and causing systemic complications. The lack of bile in the intestine, destruction of the intestinal mucosal barrier, and increased absorption of endotoxins can lead to endotoxemia, production of proinflammatory cytokines, and induce systemic inflammatory response syndrome, ultimately leading to multiple organ dysfunction syndrome. Proper management of OJ includes adequate water supply and electrolyte replacement, nutritional support, preventive antibiotics, pain relief, and itching relief. The surgical treatment of OJ depends on the cause, location, and severity of the obstruction. Biliary drainage, surgery, and endoscopic intervention are potential treatment options depending on the patient's condition. In addition to modern medical treatments, Traditional Chinese medicine may offer therapeutic benefits for OJ. A comprehensive search was conducted on PubMed for relevant articles published up to August 1970. This review discusses in detail the pathophysiological changes associated with OJ and presents effective strategies for managing the condition.

Effect of the Fermented Soy Q-CAN ® Product on Biomarkers of Inflammation and Oxidation in Adults with Cardiovascular Risk, and Canonical Correlations between the Inflammation Biomarkers and Blood Lipids. Nutrients 2023; 15:3195. [PMID: 37513613 PMCID: PMC10383246 DOI: 10.3390/nu15143195] [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: 06/13/2023] [Revised: 07/07/2023] [Accepted: 07/13/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Systemic low-grade inflammation plays a key role in the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD) but the process may be modulated by consuming fermented soy foods. Here, we aim to evaluate the effect of a fermented soy powder Q-CAN® on inflammatory and oxidation biomarkers in subjects with cardiovascular risk. In a randomized crossover trial, 27 adults (mean age ± SD, 51.6 ± 13.5 y) with a mean BMI ± SD of 32.3 ± 7.3 kg/m2 consumed 25 g daily of the fermented soy powder or an isoenergic control powder of sprouted brown rice for 12 weeks each. Between-treatment results showed a 12% increase in interleukin-1 receptor agonist (IL-1Ra) in the treatment group, whereas within-treatment results showed 23% and 7% increases in interleukin-6 (IL-6) and total antioxidant status (TAS), respectively. The first canonical correlation coefficient (r = 0.72) between inflammation markers and blood lipids indicated a positive association between high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) and IL-1Ra with LDL-C and a negative association with HDL-C that explained 62% of the variability in the biomarkers. These outcomes suggest that blood lipids and inflammatory markers are highly correlated and that ingestion of the fermented soy powder Q-CAN® may increase IL-1Ra, IL-6, and TAS in individuals with CVD risk factors.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disease, characterized by persistent hyperglycemia, the prevalence of which is on the rise worldwide. Fermented soybean products (FSP) are rich in diverse functional ingredients which have been shown to exhibit therapeutic properties in alleviating hyperglycemia. This review summarizes the hypoglycemic actions of FSP from the perspective of different target-related molecular signaling mechanisms in vitro, in vivo and clinical trials. FSP can ameliorate glucose metabolism disorder by functioning as carbohydrate digestive enzyme inhibitors, facilitating glucose transporter 4 translocation, accelerating muscular glucose utilization, inhibiting hepatic gluconeogenesis, ameliorating pancreatic dysfunction, relieving adipose tissue inflammation, and improving gut microbiota disorder. Sufficiently recognizing and exploiting the hypoglycemic activity of traditional fermented soybean foods could provide a new strategy in the development of the food fermentation industry.

Identification and virtual screening of novel anti-inflammatory peptides from broccoli fermented by Lactobacillus strains. Front Nutr 2023; 9:1118900.

Abstract
Lactobacillus strains fermentation of broccoli as a good source of bioactive peptides has not been fully elucidated. In this work, the peptide composition of broccoli fermented by L. plantarum A3 and L. rhamnosus ATCC7469 was analyzed by peptidomics to study the protein digestion patterns after fermentation by different strains. Results showed that water-soluble proteins such as rubisco were abundant sources of peptides, which triggered the sustained release of peptides as the main target of hydrolysis. In addition, 17 novel anti-inflammatory peptides were identified by virtual screening. Among them, SIWYGPDRP had the strongest ability to inhibit the release of NO from inflammatory cells at a concentration of 25 μM with an inhibition rate of 52.32 ± 1.48%. RFR and KASFAFAGL had the strongest inhibitory effects on the secretion of TNF-α and IL-6, respectively. At a concentration of 25 μM, the corresponding inhibition rates were 74.61 ± 1.68% and 29.84 ± 0.63%, respectively. Molecular docking results showed that 17 peptides formed hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions with inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS). This study is conducive to the high-value utilization of broccoli and reduction of the antibiotic use.
