Ibrahim MNG, Andreson H, Ben-Othman S, Jõudu I. Effect of Neutral and Acidic Protease Processing Intervals on Optimising Nutritional Value and Enhancing Physico-Chemical Properties of Oat Drink. Foods 2024; 13:2285. [PMID: 39063369 PMCID: PMC11276033 DOI: 10.3390/foods13142285] [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: 06/18/2024] [Revised: 07/14/2024] [Accepted: 07/18/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024] Open
Abstract
This study aimed to maximise the content of water-soluble protein (WSP) and β-glucan (BG) in oat drink (OD) products by optimising the duration of treatment with neutral (NP) and acidic (AP) proteases. Additionally, it investigated the correlation between changes in the OD's nutritional profile and its rheological and sensory properties. After initial treatment with α-amylase, the OD samples were divided into two groups, i.e., one treated with NP and the other with AP for 30, 60, 120, and 180 min. The samples were then analysed for their WSP and BG contents. Samples with an optimised treatment duration were evaluated for their rheological and sensory properties. The OD sample treated with AP for 60 min exhibited the highest β-glucan (0.52 g/100 mL) and WSP (1.56 g/100 mL) contents, improved storage stability, and the lowest sedimentation rate (2.13%/h), compared to the control OD sample. However, sensorially, this sample was characterised by a sticky, gluey mouthfeel and was less acceptable as a drinkable product. This study demonstrated the potential effect of protease treatment on enhancing the nutritional value and stability of OD products, although further studies are necessary to improve the sensory properties of these drinks.

Abstract
This review presents a comprehensive analysis of plant-based proteins from soybeans, pulses, cereals, and pseudo-cereals by examining their structural properties, modification techniques, bioactivities, and applicability in food systems. It addresses the critical need for a proper utilization strategy of proteins from various plant sources amidst the rising environmental footprint of animal protein production. The inherent composition diversity among plant proteins, their nutritional profiles, digestibility, environmental impacts, and consumer acceptance are compared. The innovative modification techniques to enhance the functional properties of plant proteins are also discussed. The review also investigates the bioactive properties of plant proteins, including their antioxidant, antimicrobial, and antitumoral activities, and their role in developing meat analogs, dairy alternatives, baked goods, and 3D-printed foods. It underscores the consideration parameters of using plant proteins as sustainable, nutritious, and functional ingredients and advocates for research to overcome sensory and functional challenges for improved consumer acceptance and marketability.

Abstract
Many new plant proteins are appearing on the market, but their properties are insufficiently characterized. Hence, we collected 24 commercial proteins from pea, oat, fava bean, chickpea, mung bean, potato, canola, soy, and wheat, including different batches, and assessed their techno-functional and sensory properties. Many powders had yellow, red, and brown color tones, but that of fava bean was the lightest. The native pH ranged from 6.0 to 7.7. The water solubility index was 28% on average, but after heat treatment the solubility typically increased. Soy isolate had by far the best water-holding capacity of 6.3 g (H2O) g-1, and canola had the highest oil-holding capacity of 2.8 g (oil) g-1. The foaming capacity and stability results were highly varied but typical to the raw material. The emulsification properties of all powders were similar. Upon heating, the highest viscosity and storage modulus were found in potato, canola, and mung bean. All powders had raw material flavor, were bitter and astringent, and undissolved particles were perceived in the mouth. Large differences in functionality were found between the batches of one pea powder. In conclusion, we emphasize the need for methodological standardization, but while respecting the conditions found in end applications like meat and dairy analogs.

Abstract
Soy (Glycine max) is used in a wide range of products and plays a major role in replacing animal-based products. Since the cultivation of soy is limited by cold climates, this review assessed the nutritional, sensory, and functional properties of three alternative cold-tolerant crops (faba bean (Vicia faba), yellow pea (Pisum sativum), and oat (Avena sativa)). Lower protein quality compared with soy and the presence of anti-nutrients are nutritional problems with all three crops, but different methods to adjust for these problems are available. Off-flavors in all pulses, including soy, and in cereals impair the sensory properties of the resulting food products, and few mitigation methods are successful. The functional properties of faba bean, pea, and oat are comparable to those of soy, which makes them usable for 3D printing, gelation, emulsification, and extrusion. Enzymatic treatment, fermentation, and fibrillation can be applied to improve the nutritional value, sensory attributes, and functional properties of all the three crops assessed, making them suitable for replacing soy in a broad range of products, although more research is needed on all attributes.

Abstract
There is a growing demand for nutritional, functional, and eco-friendly dairy products, which has increased the need for research regarding alternative and sustainable protein sources. Plant-based, single-cell (SCP), and recombinant proteins are being explored as alternatives to dairy proteins. Plant-Based Proteins (PBPs) are commonly used to replace total dairy protein. However, PBPs are generally mixed with dairy proteins to improve their functional properties, which makes them dependent on animal protein sources. In contrast, single-Cell Proteins (SCPs) and recombinant dairy proteins are promising alternatives for dairy protein replacement since they provide nutritional components, essential amino acids, and high protein yield and can use industrial and agricultural waste as carbon sources. Although alternative protein sources offer numerous advantages over conventional dairy proteins, several technical and sensory challenges must be addressed to fully incorporate them into cheese and yogurt products. Future research can focus on improving the functional and sensory properties of alternative protein sources and developing new processing technologies to optimize their use in dairy products. This review highlights the current status of alternative dairy proteins in cheese and yogurt, their functional properties, and the challenges of their use in these products.

[PMID: 37257535 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.125103] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/14/2023] [Revised: 05/17/2023] [Accepted: 05/24/2023] [Indexed: 06/02/2023]
Abstract
The impact of novel pin-to-plate atmospheric cold plasma was investigated with input voltage (170 V, 230 V) and exposure time (15 & 30 min) on oat protein by studying structural (FTIR, circular dichroism (CD), UV-vis, Fluorescence), morphological (particle size analysis, SEM, turbidity), chemical (pH, redox potential (ORP), ζ potential, carbonyl, sulfhydryl, surface hydrophobicity), and foaming characteristics. The plasma treatment reduced the pH while increasing the ORP of the dispersions. These ionic environment changes affected the ζ potential and particle size leading to the formation of larger aggregates (170-15; 230-15) and distorted smaller ones (170-30; 230-30) as confirmed by SEM. The FTIR spectra showed reduced intensity at specific amide bands (1600-1700 cm-1) and also an increase in carbonyl stretching (1743 cm-1) representing oxidative carbonylation (increase in carbonyl content). Thus, the partial exposure of hydrophobic amino acids increases surface hydrophobicity. The altered secondary structure (rise in α-helix, decrement in β-sheets and turns), and tertiary structures were observed in circular dichroism (CD) and UV absorbance and fluorescence characteristics of proteins respectively. Furthermore, the increase in free sulfhydryl content and disulfide content was highly affected by the plasma treatments due to observed protein unfolding and aggregations. Besides, the increased solubility and reduced surface tension contributed to the improved foaming characteristics. Thus, plasma processing influences protein structure affecting their characteristics and other functionalities.

Abstract
In recent years, brewer’s spent grain (BSG) has gained attention as a plant-based protein source because it occurs in large quantities as a by-product of beer brewing. BSG can contribute to future food requirements and support the development of a circular economy. In light of the dynamic developments in this area, this review aims to understand the proteins present in BSG, and the effect of extraction techniques and conditions on the composition, physicochemical, and techno-functional properties of the obtained protein extracts. The water-insoluble hordeins and glutelins form the major protein fractions in BSG. Depending on the beer brewing process, the extraction technique, and conditions, the BSG protein isolates predominantly contain B, C, and ϒ hordeins, and exhibit a broad molecular weight distribution ranging between <5 kDa and >250 kDa. While the BSG isolates obtained through chemical extraction methods seem promising to obtain gelled food products, physical and enzymatic modifications of BSG proteins through ultrasound and proteolytic hydrolysis offer an effective way to produce soluble and functional protein isolates with good emulsifying and foaming capabilities. Specifically tailored protein extracts to suit different applications can thus be obtained from BSG, highlighting that it is a highly valuable protein source.

Abstract
The use of alternative vegetal sources is a proposed strategy to improve the diversity and quality of plant-based products on the market, currently led by soy and pea. This study compares the techno-functional properties of seven vegetable flours (chickpea, lentil, red lentil, white bean, quinoa, amaranth, and oat) and the rheological properties of their flour pastes and gels. All techno-functional properties significantly (α = 0.05) varied depending on the type of flour. Among the flours studied, the highest swelling capacity was for white bean and the lowest for chickpea and red lentil. Water holding capacity was high for white bean and oat flours and low for red lentil. Oat and quinoa flours had the highest oil-holding capacity. Emulsifying and foaming capacities were high for all pulse flours but poor for amaranth and oat flours. However, amaranth and oat provided a much higher viscosity during heating than the rest of the flours. The viscoelastic properties of the flour pastes indicated that they all had a gel structure with storage modulus (G′) values over loss modulus (G″) values. From the viscoelastic properties, amaranth and quinoa showed a weak gel structure with low G′ and G″ values, and the chickpea, lentil, and red lentil formed pastes with a high elastic contribution (high G′ values). In agreement, these three pulse flours were the only ones able to form hard, self-standing gels. These results show the potential of vegetal flours from alternative sources in the development of new plant-based products.

Abstract
Oats are considered an exceptional source of high-quality protein. Protein isolation methods define their nutritional value and further applicability in food systems. The aim of this study was to recover the oat protein using a wet-fractioning method and investigate the protein functional properties and nutritional values among the processing streams. The oat protein was concentrated through enzymatic extraction, eliminating starch and non-starch polysaccharides (NSP), treating oat flakes with hydrolases, and reaching protein concentrations of up to about 86% in dry matter. The increased ionic strength from adding sodium chloride (NaCl) improved protein aggregation and resulted in increased protein recovery. Ionic changes improved protein recovery in provided methods by up to 24.8 % by weight. Amino acid (AA) profiles were determined in the obtained samples, and protein quality was compared with the required pattern of indispensable amino acids. Furthermore, functional properties of the oat protein, such as solubility, foamability, and liquid holding capacity, were investigated. The solubility of the oat protein was below 7 %; foamability averaged below 8%. The water and oil-holding reached a ratio of up to 3.0 and 2.1 for water and oil, respectively. Our findings suggest that oat protein could be a potential ingredient for food industries requiring a protein of high purity and nutritional value.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate and compare the physicochemical characteristics and volatile flavor compounds of three kinds of yoghurt made from reconstituted milk, soy drink and oat drink. The results showed that with the same fermentation ending pH of 4.5, reconstituted yoghurt had the highest titratable acidity mainly due to the highest buffering capacity and microbial counts (LAB). The textural and water holding capacity (WHC) parameters revealed that soy-based yoghurt had the highest firmness, consistency and WHC, indicating more rigid gel was formed. Meanwhile, rheological analysis showed soy-based yoghurt owned higher G' and G'' values and higher stability against external stress, demonstrating that more and stronger interactions between soy proteins were built during fermentation. The confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) image witnessed that soy-based yoghurt had the densest and finest network, while oat-based yoghurt had much coarser and looser structure, which was consistent with the lowest firmness and G' value for oat-based yoghurt. In terms of color, reconstituted yoghurt was the lightest and oat-based yoghurt showed more reddish and yellowish. The main volatile flavor compounds in all yoghurts were ketones, while aldehydes contributed more in soy and oat yoghurt. PCA plot showed that volatile flavor compounds of reconstituted yoghurt and oat-based yoghurt were relatively similar, while soy-based yoghurt was much more different with high OAVs of hexanal, 1-octen-3-one, 1-octen-3-ol and 2-octenal. This study supplied a theoretical basis and an improvement direction for the better development of healthier plant-based yoghurt similar to dairy yoghurt.

Abstract
In order to alleviate the pressure on environmental resources faced by meat and dairy production and to satisfy the increasing demands of consumers for food safety and health, alternative proteins have drawn considerable attention in the food industry. However, despite the successive reports of alternative protein food, the processing and application foundation of alternative proteins for meat and dairy is still weak. This paper summarizes the nutritional composition and physicochemical characteristics of meat and dairy alternative proteins from four sources: plant proteins, fungal proteins, algal proteins and insect proteins. The difference between these alternative proteins to animal proteins, the effects of their structural features and environmental conditions on their properties, as well as the corresponding mechanism are compared and discussed. Though fungal proteins, algal proteins and insect proteins have shown some advantages over traditional plant proteins, such as the comparable protein content of insect proteins to meat, the better digestibility of fungal proteins and the better foaming properties of algal proteins, there is still a big gap between alternative proteins and meat and dairy proteins. In addition to needing to provide amino acid composition and digestibility similar to animal proteins, alternative proteins also face challenges such as maintaining good solubility and emulsion properties. Their nutritional and physicochemical properties still need thorough investigation, and for commercial application, it is important to develop and optimize industrial technology in alternative protein separation and modification.

[PMID: 36068254 PMCID: PMC9448812 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-19229-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/05/2022] [Accepted: 08/25/2022] [Indexed: 11/09/2022] Open
Abstract
In this study, the effects of foliar application of selenium (Se) at different concentrations were examined based on changes in several parameters such as nitrogen, phosphorous, and potassium (NPK) concentration in soil and oat plant, oat yield, organic matter in the soil (OMS), non-enzymatic antioxidants, and total phenol content. Chromium (Cr), iron (Fe), manganese (Mn), zinc (Zn), and copper (Cu) concentrations were also assessed in oat straw and seeds. The study complies with local and national guideline. Simultaneous application of potassium humate (K-humate) with Se was also investigated in this study. Se application increased the bioavailability of N and P in soil and their total concentration in the straw and seeds of each plant. Se concentrations were proportional to the amount of phosphorous found in soil (P-soil) but not with K concentrations in seed (K-plant). Application of K-humate with Se increased the bioavailable fraction of K-soil; however, it did not increase the bioavailable fraction of K-straw or K-seed. Although the application of Se alone substantially enhanced yield, the simultaneous application of K-humate showed no additional effect. Moreover, responses of seed yield and plant length were not significant after the application of Se with or without K-humate. OMS and total phenol content were proportional to the application rate of Se with and without K-humate. Non-enzymatic antioxidant content was also proportional to Se concentrations but not proportional to K-humate. The total Se concentrations in the soil, plant straw, and seeds increased with the addition of K-humate. Furthermore, the total Cr concentrations were reduced after the application of Se and K-humate. Fe concentration in the straw and seeds varied from one treatment to another, and Mn concentration was reduced in response to the foliar application of Se and K-humate. Zn concentrations in the straw and seeds of plants were reduced with the application of varying concentrations of Se. Increasing the application rate of Se induced a reduction in the Cu concentration in seeds. In contrast, the simultaneous application of Se and K-humate increased the Cu concentration in seeds.

Survey of Freshly Harvested Oat Grains from Southern Brazil Reveals High Incidence of Type B Trichothecenes and Associated Fusarium Species. Toxins (Basel) 2021; 13:855. [PMID: 34941693 PMCID: PMC8706650 DOI: 10.3390/toxins13120855] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2021] [Revised: 11/24/2021] [Accepted: 11/27/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
The current study investigated the fungal diversity in freshly harvested oat samples from the two largest production regions in Brazil, Paraná (PR) and Rio Grande do Sul (RS), focusing primarily on the Fusarium genus and the presence of type B trichothecenes. The majority of the isolates belonged to the Fusarium sambucinum species complex, and were identified as F. graminearum sensu stricto (s.s.), F. meridionale, and F. poae. In the RS region, F. poae was the most frequent fungus, while F. graminearum s.s. was the most frequent in the PR region. The F. graminearum s.s. isolates were 15-ADON genotype, while F. meridionale and F. poae were NIV genotype. Mycotoxin analysis revealed that 92% and 100% of the samples from PR and RS were contaminated with type B trichothecenes, respectively. Oat grains from PR were predominantly contaminated with DON, whereas NIV was predominant in oats from RS. Twenty-four percent of the samples were contaminated with DON at levels higher than Brazilian regulations. Co-contamination of DON, its derivatives, and NIV was observed in 84% and 57.7% of the samples from PR and RS, respectively. The results provide new information on Fusarium contamination in Brazilian oats, highlighting the importance of further studies on mycotoxins.
