[PMID: 39147544 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2024.114712] [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: 02/20/2024] [Revised: 06/14/2024] [Accepted: 06/28/2024] [Indexed: 08/17/2024]
Abstract
The emergence of innovative plant-based meat analogs, replicating the flavor, texture, and appearance of animal meat cuts, is deemed crucial for sustainably feeding a growing population while mitigating the environmental impact associated with livestock farming. Multi-material 3D food printing (MM3DFP) has been proposed as a potentially disruptive technology for manufacturing the next generation of plant-based meat analogs. This article provides a comprehensive review of the state of the art, addressing various aspects of 3D printing in the realm of plant-based meat. The disruptive potential of printed meat analogs is discussed with particular emphasis on protein-rich, lipid-rich, and blood-mimicking food inks. The printing parameters, printing requirements, and rheological properties at the different printing stages are addressed in detail. As food rheology plays a key role in the printing process, an appraisal of this subject is performed. Post-printing treatments are assessed based on the extent of improvement in the quality of 3D-printed plant-based meat analogs. The meat-mimicking potential is revealed through sensory attributes, such as texture and flavor. Furthermore, there has been limited research into food safety and nutrition. Economically, the 3D printing of plant-based meat analogs demonstrates significant market potential, contingent upon innovative decision-making strategies and supportive policies to enhance consumer acceptance. This review examines the current limitations of this technology and highlights opportunities for future developments.

Abstract
The global demand for high-quality animal protein faces challenges, prompting a surge in interest in plant-based meat analogues (PBMA). PBMA have emerged as a promising solution, although they encounter technological obstacles. This review discusses the technological challenges faced by PBMA from the viewpoint of plant proteins, emphasizing textural, flavor, color, and nutritional aspects. Texturally, PBMA confront issues, such as deficient fibrous structure, chewiness, and juiciness. Addressing meat flavor and mitigating beany flavor in plant protein are imperative. Furthermore, achieving a distinctive red or pink meat color remains a challenge. Plant proteins exhibit a lower content of essential amino acids. Future research directions encompass (1) shaping myofibril fibrous structures through innovative processing; (2) effectively eliminating the beany flavor; (3) developing biotechnological methodologies for leghemoglobin and plant-derived pigments; (4) optimizing amino acid composition to augment the nutritional profiles. These advancements are crucial for utilization of plant proteins in development of high-quality PBMA.

Abstract
3D printing has enabled modifying internal structures of the food affecting textural properties, but predicting desired texture remains challenging. To overcome this challenge, the use of response surface methodology (RSM) was demonstrated to develop empirical models relating 3D printing parameters to textural properties using aqueous inks containing cricket powders as a model system. Regression models were established for our key textural properties (i.e., hardness (H), adhesiveness (A), cohesiveness (C), and springiness (S)) in response to three 3D printing parameters: infill percentage (i), layer height (h), and print speed (s). Our developed model successfully predicted the 3D printing parameters to achieve the intended textural properties using a multi-objective optimization framework. The predicted limits for H, A, C, and S were 0.66-5.39 N, 0.01-12.43 mJ, 0.01-1.05, and 0-19.20 mm, respectively. To validate our models, we simulated the texture of other food using our model ink and achieved high accuracy for H (99%), C (82%), and S (87%). This work highlights a simple way to 3D-print foods with spatially different textures and materials, unlocking the full potential of 3D printing technology for manufacturing a range of customized foods.

Abstract
This study aimed to construct a novel corn starch-glycyrrhizic acid (CS-GA) ink and systematically investigate the effects of GA on the water distribution, microstructure, rheology and 3D printing properties of CS hydrogels. The results showed that the CS chains could form strong hydrogen bonds with GA molecules, inhibit the formation of short-range ordered structure of CS and reduce the content of B-type starch. The low-field nuclear magnetic results showed that the introduction of GA could increase bound water content in CS-GA hydrogels. With the increase of GA content, the CS-GA hydrogel changed from CS-dominated to a GA-dominated gel network system. Rheological results showed that all samples exhibited typical shear thinning behavior. High GA concentration was beneficial to increasing the self-supporting properties and thixotropic recovery of CS-GA hydrogels. Compared with the pure CS hydrogel, the 3D printing characteristics of CS-GA hydrogels were significantly enhanced due to the increased bound water content and the enhancement of rheological properties. At 40 % GA content, CS-GA hydrogel showed the highest printing accuracy of 96.4 % ± 0.30 %. The printed product could perfectly replicate the preset model. Therefore, this study provided a theoretical basis for regulating starch's rheology and 3D printing characteristics and developing novel food-grade 3D printing inks.

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
This study aimed to analyze the printability of corn-based dough during screw-based three-dimensional (3D) food printing (3DFP) by relating its rheological and mechanical properties to its screw-based 3DFP performance, with the objective of providing insights into the utilization of corn-based dough to produce 3D-printed foods. Screw-based 3DFP was performed using seven corn-based doughs with different nixtamalized corn flour (NCF) and water contents. Afterward, their rheological and mechanical properties were analyzed and associated with their screw-based 3DFP performance. The results showed that stable printability was obtained within a specific range of NCF content in the dough (30-32.5 wt%). Below this range, the 3D-printed foods flattened, while above it, the extrudability of the dough was affected. The printability of the dough was influenced by different rheological and mechanical properties, depending on the stage of the screw-based 3DFP process. During the extrusion stage, the loss tangent at nozzle strain, yield stress, apparent viscosity, and adhesiveness mainly affected the extrudability of the dough. In contrast, the loss tangent at minimum strain, elastic modulus, Young's modulus, and hardness influenced the self-supporting stage. Therefore, it is important to find a balance between all of these properties, where stable extrudability and self-supporting of the 3D structure are achieved.

Abstract
This study investigated the effect of κ-carrageenan and l-lysine on the physical, chemical and textural properties of yellow flesh peaches and their suitability for 3D printing. The addition of κ-carrageenan and l-lysine was found to improve the apparent viscosity, elasticity, gel strength, and Young's modulus of the yellow flesh peach with κ-carrageenan and l-lysine gels (PCLG) and increase the minimum piston pressure required for 3D printing, thereby improving the printing performance. Optimum levels of κ-carrageenan and l-lysine (0.1 mmol/mL and 3.42 × 10-2 mmol/mL, respectively) were found to enhance mechanical strength, viscoelasticity and print fidelity. On the other hand, when the addition of κ-carrageenan is 0.1 mmol/mL, the addition of l-lysine causes an increase in the G0 value and a decrease in the η0 value of the PCLG according to Burger's model, indicating a transition from viscosity to elasticity and an increase in maximum extrusion force, while the apparent viscosity does not change significantly. The results of 3D printing showed that when the addition of κ-carrageenan and l-lysine reached 0.1 mmol/mL and 6.84 × 10-2 mmol/mL, respectively, the PCLG could not be smoothly extruded, indicating that elasticity also plays an important role during the extrusion process of the mixed gel.

Abstract
The practicability of using corn and flaxseed protein as printing inks for manufacture of printed products specifically designed for toddlers as a dysphagia diet with high precision and special shapes with addition of fenugreek gum (FGG) was investigated. 3D printing was used to process grains and dysphagia-compatible food (corn) into a dietary product with attractive appearance which was also easy to swallow. Rheological measurements shown that appropriate amount of flaxseed protein (FP, 0-10 %) can reduce the stickiness and yield strength of printing material. Based on FTIR measurements, FP weakened the hydrogen bond strength of inks, but it was still an important gradient for the formation of the ink suitable for precision 3D printing. The TPA results shown that the addition of FP (0-10 %) remarkably reduced both the stickiness and hardness of the ink. These results shown that compared with the control group, materials with FGG additions possessed higher printing accuracy and self-supporting ability. Ink with 5 % FP content exhibited the best printability and swallowability, while ink with 10 % FP content had the lowest viscosity and hardness, but it was not suitable for 3D printing. 3D printing of objects printed using Ink-C (5%FP and 0.8 %FGG) showed high support characteristic and attractive appearance. According to the international IDDSI testing standards, Ink-C (5%FP and 0.8 %FGG), Ink-E (15%FP and 0.8 %FGG), and Ink-F (20%FP and 0.8 %FGG) were defined as level 5-minced and moist foods.

Abstract
Plant-based foods are being considered seriously to replace traditional animal-origin foods for various reasons. It is well known that animals release large amounts of greenhouse gases into the environment during feeding, and eating animal-origin foods may also cause some health problems. Moreover, animal resources will likely be in short supply as the world population grows. It is highly likely that serious health problems ascribed to insufficient protein intake in some areas of the world will occur. Studies have shown that environmentally friendly, abundant, and customizable plant-based foods can be an effective alternative to animal-based foods. However, currently, available plant-based foods lack nutrients unique to animal-based foods. Innovative processing technologies are needed to improve the nutritional value and functionality of plant-based foods and make them acceptable to a wider range of consumers. Therefore, protein extraction technologies (e.g., high-pressure extraction, ultrasound extraction, enzyme extraction, etc.), structure improvement and assembly technologies (3D printing, micro-encapsulation, etc.), and technologies to improve digestibility and utilization of bioactive substances (microbial fermentation, physical, etc.) in the field of plant-based foods processing are reviewed. The challenges of plant-based food processing technologies are summarized. The advanced technologies aim to help the food industry solve production problems using efficient, environmentally friendly, and economical processing technologies and to guide the development of plant-based foods in the future.

Effect of 3D Food Printing Processing on Polyphenol System of Loaded Aronia melanocarpa and Post-Processing Evaluation of 3D Printing Products. Foods 2023; 12:foods12102068. [PMID: 37238886 DOI: 10.3390/foods12102068] [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: 03/25/2023] [Revised: 05/16/2023] [Accepted: 05/18/2023] [Indexed: 05/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Aronia melanocarpa polyphenols (AMP) have good nutritional values and functions. This study aimed to explore the printability and storage properties of AM gels in 3D food printing (3DFP). Therefore, 3DFP was performed on a loaded AMP gel system to determine its textural properties, rheological properties, microstructure, swelling degree and storage performance. The results revealed that the best loading AMP gel system to meet the printability requirements of 3DFP processing was AM fruit pulp:methylcellulose:pea albumin: hyaluronic acid = 100:14:1:1. Compared with other ratios and before 3DFP processing, the best loading AMP gel system processed by 3DFP exhibited the lowest deviation of 4.19%, the highest hardness, the highest elasticity, the least adhesion, a compact structure, uniform porosity, difficulty in collapsing, good support, a high degree of crosslinking, and good water retention. Additionally, they could be stored for 14 d at 4 °C. After post-processing, the AMP gel had a favorable AMP release rate and good sustained release effect in gastrointestinal digestion, which conformed to the Ritger-Peppas equation model. The results revealed that the gel system had good printability and applicability for 3D printing; as well, 3DFP products had good storage properties. These conclusions provide a theoretical basis for the application of 3D printing using fruit pulp as a raw material.

Abstract
The contradiction between the growing demand from consumers for "nutrition & personalized" food and traditional industrialized food production has consistently been a problem in the elderly diet that researchers face and discuss. Three-dimensional (3D) food printing could potentially offer a solution to this problem. This article reviews the recent research on 3D food printing, mainly including the use of different sources of protein to improve the performance of food ink printing, high internal phase emulsion or oleogels as a fat replacement and nutrition delivery system, and functional active ingredients and the nutrition delivery system. In our opinion, 3D food printing is crucial for improving the appetite and dietary intake of the elderly. The critical obstacles of 3D-printed food for the elderly regarding energy supplements, nutrition balance, and even the customization of the recipe in a meal are discussed in this paper. By combining big data and artificial intelligence technology with 3D food printing, comprehensive, personalized, and customized geriatric foods, according to the individual traits of each elderly consumer, will be realized via food raw materials-appearance-processing methods. This article provides a theoretical basis and development direction for future 3D food printing for the elderly.

Abstract
To date, analog methods of cooking such as by grills, cooktops, stoves and microwaves have remained the world's predominant cooking modalities. With the continual evolution of digital technologies, however, laser cooking and 3D food printing may present nutritious, convenient and cost-effective cooking opportunities. Food printing is an application of additive manufacturing that utilizes user-generated models to construct 3D shapes from edible food inks and laser cooking uses high-energy targeted light for high-resolution tailored heating. Using software to combine and cook ingredients allows a chef to more easily control the nutrient content of a meal, which could lead to healthier and more customized meals. With more emphasis on food safety following COVID-19, food prepared with less human handling may lower the risk of foodborne illness and disease transmission. Digital cooking technologies allow an end consumer to take more control of the macro and micro nutrients that they consume on a per meal basis and due to the rapid growth and potential benefits of 3D technology advancements, a 3D printer may become a staple home and industrial cooking device.

Abstract
The effects of κ-carrageenan gum (KG) on the 3D printability and rheological properties of pork pastes were investigated in this study. There were five groups with different levels of KG (0, 2, 4, 6, and 8 g/kg) named as KG-0, KG-2, KG-4, KG-6, and KG-8, respectively. The addition of KG increased the yield stress, viscosity, shear stress, recovery percentage, storage modulus, loss modulus, and initial and average flow forces (P < 0.05). The results of low-field nuclear magnetic resonance analysis revealed that addition of KG reduced T21 and T22 (P < 0.05). The best printing parameters were obtained by accuracy and stability results: printing filling percent, 90%; printing speed, 35 mm⋅s-1; layer height, 2 mm; nozzle diameter, 1.55 mm, and KG addition level, 6 g/kg. KG addition improved the hardness, springiness, chewiness, cohesiveness, adhesiveness, and density, respectively (P < 0.05). The results suggested that KG addition improved the rheological properties and 3D printability of the pork pastes.

Construction of 3D printed meat analogs from plant-based proteins: improving the printing performance of soy protein- and gluten-based pastes facilitated by rice protein.

Abstract
Additive technology (3D printing) is increasingly being used to produce plant-based meat analogs. However, there are several challenges to fabricating meat analogs using this technology: (i) the protein content in the final printed product is often too low to match the nutritional profile of real meat; (ii) it is often difficult to accurately mimic the textural and structural attributes of real meat using existing plant protein edible inks. In this study, the rheological properties and printing performance of edible inks produced from soy protein isolate (SPI), wheat gluten (WG), and rice protein (RP) were investigated. Our goal was to mix SPI, WG, RP powders to develop a high-protein edible ink (25% of total dry matter content) that can be used to create 3D-printed meat analogs. The rheological properties, moisture distribution, texture, microstructure, and printing performance (fidelity and stability) of protein pastes with different SPI-WG-to-RP ratios were measured. These protein-enriched inks exhibited pseudoplastic behavior with viscoelastic properties. The apparent viscosity and storage modulus of these pastes decreased with increasing rice protein proportion, which improved their 3D printing performance, such as hardness, support force, and plasticization. These edible inks prepared by mixed protein may be useful for 3D printing of plant-based foods.

Abstract
Dysphagia is a condition in which the swallowing mechanism is impaired. It is most often a result of a stroke. Dysphagia has serious consequences, including choking and aspiration pneumonia, which can both be fatal. The population that is most affected by it is the elderly. Texture-modified diets are part of the treatment plan for dysphagia. This bland, restrictive diet often contributes to malnutrition in patients with dysphagia. Both energy and protein intake are of concern, which is especially worrying, as it affects the elderly. Making texture-modified diets more appealing is one method to increase food intake. As a recent technology, 3D food printing has great potential to increase the appeal of textured foods. With extrusion-based printing, both protein and vegetable products have already been 3D printed that fit into the texture categories provided by the International Dysphagia Diet Standardization Initiative. Another exciting advancement is 4D food printing which could make foods even more appealing by incorporating color change and aroma release following a stimulus. The ultra-processed nature of 3D-printed foods is of nutritional concern since this affects the digestion of the food and negatively affects the gut microbiome. There are mitigating strategies to this issue, including the addition of hydrocolloids that increase stomach content viscosity and the addition of probiotics. Therefore, 3D food printing is an improved method for the production of texture-modified diets that should be further explored.

Abstract
The interest to characterize texture-modified foods (TMFs) intended for people with oropharyngeal dysphagia (OD) has grown significantly since 2011. Several instrumental and sensory techniques have been applied in the analysis of these foods. The objective of the present systematic review was to identify the most appropriate techniques, especially for the food industry and clinical setting. The search was carried out in three online databases according to the "Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses" (PRISMA). Across the multiple trials reviewed, Texture Profile Analysis and the Uniaxial Compression Test were most used as the instrumental technique for solid foods, and the Back Extrusion Test for fluid and semisolid foods. All trials used descriptive analysis as the sensory technique. However, the experimental conditions of the trials lacked standardization. Consequently, the results of the trials were not comparable. To properly characterize the texture of TMFs intended for OD by each technique, an international consensus is needed to establish standardized experimental conditions. Methods based on these techniques should also be validated by collaborative studies to verify repeatability, replicability, and reproducibility.

Abstract
The application of chitosan (CS) and whey protein (WP) alone or in combination in 3D/4D printing has been well considered in previous studies. Although several excellent reviews on additive manufacturing discussed the properties and biomedical applications of CS and WP, there is a lack of a systemic review about CS and WP bio-inks for 3D/4D printing applications. Easily modified bio-ink with optimal printability is a key for additive manufacturing. CS, WP, and WP-CS complex hydrogel possess great potential in making bio-ink that can be broadly used for future 3D/4D printing, because CS is a functional polysaccharide with good biodegradability, biocompatibility, non-immunogenicity, and non-carcinogenicity, while CS-WP complex hydrogel has better printability and drug-delivery effectivity than WP hydrogel. The review summarizes the current advances of bio-ink preparation employing CS and/or WP to satisfy the requirements of 3D/4D printing and post-treatment of materials. The applications of CS/WP bio-ink mainly focus on 3D food printing with a few applications in cosmetics. The review also highlights the trends of CS/WP bio-inks as potential candidates in 4D printing. Some promising strategies for developing novel bio-inks based on CS and/or WP are introduced, aiming to provide new insights into the value-added development and commercial CS and WP utilization.

Abstract
Due to the lack of a sufficient amount of animal protein and the pursuit of health and reduced environmental impact, the global demand for plant protein is increasing. This study endeavors to using textured soybean protein (TSP) or drawing soy protein (DSP) as raw materials to produce steak-like foods through 3D printing technology. The textural difference between fried 3D printed samples and fried commercial chicken breast (control) was studied. The results show that different ink substrates (TSP and DSP) and hydrocolloids (xanthan gum, konjac gum, sodium alginate, guar gum, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, and hydroxyethyl cellulose) were the keys to successful printing. The ink composed of TSP and xanthan gum had the best printing characteristics and sample integrity after frying. It was found that different infilling patterns and infill rates had a significant effect on the texture properties of the fried samples. When the triangle infilling pattern was used at an infill rate of 60%, the product had had the closest hardness (2585.13 ± 262.55), chewiness (1227.18 ± 133.00), and gumminess (1548.09 ± 157.82) to the control sample. This work proved the feasibility of using 3D printing based on plant protein to produce steak-like food with texture properties similar to chicken breast.

Abstract
One of the recent, innovative, and digital food revolutions gradually gaining acceptance is three-dimensional food printing (3DFP), an additive technique used to develop products, with the possibility of obtaining foods with complex geometries. Recent interest in this technology has opened the possibilities of complementing existing processes with 3DFP for better value addition. Fermentation and malting are age-long traditional food processes known to improve food value, functionality, and beneficial health constituents. Several studies have demonstrated the applicability of 3D printing to manufacture varieties of food constructs, especially cereal-based, from root and tubers, fruit and vegetables as well as milk and milk products, with potential for much more value-added products. This review discusses the extrusion-based 3D printing of foods and the major factors affecting the process development of successful edible 3D structures. Though some novel food products have emanated from 3DFP, considering the beneficial effects of traditional food processes, particularly fermentation and malting in food, concerted efforts should also be directed toward developing 3D products using substrates from these conventional techniques. Such experimental findings will significantly promote the availability of minimally processed, affordable, and convenient meals customized in complex geometric structures with enhanced functional and nutritional values.
