JOURNAL OF THE SCIENCE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE 2024; 104:3185-3196. [PMID: 38151774 DOI: 10.1002/jsfa.13248] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2023] [Revised: 11/28/2023] [Accepted: 12/27/2023] [Indexed: 12/29/2023]
Abstract
In the cheese industry, whey, which is rich in lactose and proteins, is underutilized, causing adverse environmental impacts. The fractionation of its components, typically carried out through filtration membranes, faces operational challenges such as membrane fouling, significant protein loss during the process, and extended operating times. These challenges require attention and specific methods for optimization and to increase efficiency. A promising strategy to enhance industry efficiency and sustainability is the use of enzymatic pre-treatment with the enzyme transglutaminase (TGase). This enzyme plays a crucial role in protein modification, catalyzing covalent cross-links between lysine and glutamine residues, increasing the molecular weight of proteins, facilitating their retention on membranes, and contributing to the improvement of the quality of the final products. The aim of this study is to review the application of the enzyme TGase as a pretreatment in whey protein filtration. The scope involves assessing the enzyme's impact on whey protein properties and its relationship with process performance. It also aims to identify both the optimization of operational parameters and the enhancement of product characteristics. This study demonstrates that the application of TGase leads to improved performance in protein concentration, lactose permeation, and permeate flux rate during the filtration process. It also has the capacity to enhance protein solubility, viscosity, thermal stability, and protein gelation in whey. In this context, it is relevant for enhancing the characteristics of whey, thereby contributing to the production of higher quality final products in the food industry. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Astráin-Redín L, Skipnes D, Cebrián G, Álvarez-Lanzarote I, Rode TM. Effect of the Application of Ultrasound to Homogenize Milk and the Subsequent Pasteurization by Pulsed Electric Field, High Hydrostatic Pressure, and Microwaves. Foods 2023; 12:foods12071457. [PMID: 37048276 PMCID: PMC10093751 DOI: 10.3390/foods12071457] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2023] [Revised: 03/21/2023] [Accepted: 03/27/2023] [Indexed: 04/03/2023] Open
Abstract
The efficacy of applying ultrasound (US) as a system to homogenize emulsions has been widely demonstrated. However, research has not yet shown whether the effect achieved by homogenizing milk with US is modified by subsequent pasteurization treatments that use new processing technologies such as pulsed electric fields (PEF), microwaves (MW), and high hydrostatic pressure (HPP). The aim of this study was, therefore, to optimize the application of US for milk homogenization and to evaluate the effect of PEF, HPP, and MW pasteurization treatments on the sensorial, rheological, and microbiological properties of milk throughout its shelf life. To homogenize whole milk, a continuous US system (20 kHz, 0.204 kJ/mL, 100%, 40 °C) was used, and different ultrasonic intensities (0.25, 0.5, and 1.0 kJ/mL) were evaluated. The optimal ultrasonic treatment was selected on the basis of fat globule size distribution and pasteurization treatments by MW (5800 W, 1.8 L/min), PEF (120 kJ/kg, 20 kV/cm) and HPP (600 MPa, 2 min, 10 °C) was applied. The ultrasound intensity that achieved the highest reduction in fat globule size (0.22 ± 0.02 µm) and the most homogeneous distribution was 1.0 kJ/mL. Fat globule size was smaller than in commercial milk (82% of volume < 0.5 µm for US milk versus 97% of volume < 1.2 µm for commercial milk). That size was maintained after the application of the different pasteurization treatments, and the resulting milk had better emulsion stability than commercial milk. After 28 days of storage, no differences in viscosity (4.4–4.9 mPa s) were observed. HPP pasteurization had the greatest impact on color, leading to higher yellowness values than commercial milk. Microbial counts did not vary significantly after 28 days of storage, with counts below 102 CFU/mL for samples incubated at 15 °C and at 37 °C. In summary, the homogenization of milk obtained by US was not affected by subsequent pasteurization processes, regardless of the technology applied (MW, PEF, or HPP). Further research is needed to evaluate these procedures’ effect on milk’s nutritional and functional properties.

Abstract
The effect of ultrasound on the kinetics of anti-solvent crystallization of sucrose was studied. The influence of temperature, stirring rate, supersaturation and ultrasonic power on the anti-solvent crystallization of sucrose was investigated. The relationship between infrared spectral characteristic band of sucrose and supersaturation was determined with an online reaction analyzer. The crystal size distribution of sucrose was detected by a laser particle-size analyzer. Ultrasound accelerated the crystallization process, and had no impact on the crystal shape. Abegg, Stevens and Larson model was fitted to the experimental data, and the results were the following: At 298.15 K, the average size of crystals was 133.8 μm and nucleation rate was 4.87 × 109 m-3·s-1 without ultrasound. In an ultrasonic field, the average size was 80.5 μm, and nucleation rate was 1.18 × 1011 m-3·s-1. Ultrasound significantly reduced the average size of crystals and improved the nucleation rate. It was observed that the crystal size decreased with the increase of stirring rate in silent environment. When the stirring rate increased from 250 to 400 rpm, the average size decreased from 173.0 to 132.9 μm. However, the stirring rate had no significant impact on the crystal size in the ultrasonic field. In addition, the activation energy of anti-solvent crystallization of sucrose was decreased, and the kinetic constant of nucleation rate was increased due to the effect of ultrasound. In the ultrasonic field, the activation energy was reduced from 20422.5 to 790.5 J·mol-1, and the kinetic constant was increased from 9.76 × 102 to 8.38 × 108.

Abstract
Proteins are one of the primary building blocks that have significant functional properties to be applied in food and pharmaceutical industries. Proteins could be beneficial in their concentrated products or isolates, of which membrane-based filtration methods such as ultrafiltration (UF) encompass application in broad spectra of protein sources. More importantly, selective enrichment by UF is of immense interest due to the presence of antinutrients that may dominate their perspicuous bioactivities. UF process is primarily obstructed by concentration polarization and fouling; in turn, a trade-off between productivity and selectivity emerges, especially when pure isolates are an ultimate goal. Several factors such as operating conditions and membrane equipment could leverage those pervasive contributions; therefore, UF protocols should be optimized for each unique protein mixture and mode of configuration. For instance, employing charged UF membranes or combining UF membranes with electrodialysis enables efficient separation of proteins with a similar molecular weight, which is hard to achieve by the conventional UF membrane. Meanwhile, some proposed strategies, such as utilizing ultrasonic waves, tuning operating conditions, and modifying membrane surfaces, can effectively mitigate fouling issues. A plethora of advancements in UF, from their membrane material modification to the arrangement of new configurations, contribute to the quest to actualize promising potentials of protein separation by UF, and they are reviewed in this paper.

Abstract
Whey is a liquid residue generated during the production of cheese and yogurt. It has a pH between 3.9 and 5.6, and a high chemical oxygen demand (COD), from 60 to 80 g/L. Whey contains lactose, proteins, and minerals. Globally, approximately 50% of the whey generated is untreated and is released directly into the environment, which represents an environmental risk. To overcome whey management problems, conventional thermo-physical valorization treatments have been explored, which are complex, costly and energy-intensive. As an alternative, whey fermentation processes employing bacteria, fungi and yeast are economical and promising methods. Among them, yeast fermentation creates value-added products such as antimicrobials, biofuels, aromas, flavors, and antioxidants with no need for previous conditioning of the whey, such as hydrolysis of the lactose, prior to whey biorefining. The biorefining concept applied to whey is discussed using chemical and biological transformation pathways, showing their pluses and minuses, such as technical drawbacks. The main challenges and solutions for the production of fusel alcohols, specifically for 2-phenylethanol, are also discussed in this review.

Abstract
Improvements in the membrane separation of whey and subsequent spray drying for the recovery of Whey Protein Concentrate (WPC) have been investigated in the present work. Initially, ultrasonic pretreatment of whey was performed to reduce the microbial contamination and possibly improve the membrane separation based on inducing changes in the whey proteins. Studies involving the effect of important parameters in the membrane operation such as transmembrane pressure (TMP), type of membrane and molecular weight cutoff (MWCO) on permeate flux established that 10 kDa hydrosart membrane gives maximum permeate flux with minimum fouling at an optimum TMP of 1.2 bar. Studies with ultrasound assisted ultrafiltration established that the fouling was reduced with ultrasound also giving higher permeate flux. Effect of spray drying parameters such as air pressure, aspirator rate (rpm), feed flow rate and dilution on the WPC yield, analysed using SDS-PAGE and Kjeldahl method, has also been investigated. Additionally, the use of ultrasonic nozzle in the spray drying was investigated and the results were compared with pneumatic nozzle. Overall, it was clearly established that pretreatment, membrane characteristics, ultrafiltration operating parameters and spray drying parameters play an important role in deciding the WPC recovery from whey. Significant process intensification benefits were demonstrated to be obtained with the use of ultrasound both in membrane separation and spray drying.
