Abstract
Millet, the highly sustainable crop for farming and combating hunger, has recently regained a resurgence in popularity as people seek more sustainable and nutrient-dense alternatives. International organizations and research institutions have advocated for increased millet production and consumption by introducing novel technologies and machinery in response to global food security and climate change challenges. This review aims to identify the impact of modern and conventional processing technologies on the quality of different millets. A comprehensive analysis of research reviews reveals that double-stage and tabletop centrifugal dehullers, infrared roasting, pulsed light, ultrasound, high-pressure processing methods, fortification, and encapsulation are optimal for nutrient retention in various millets. Extrusion technology application in millet processing has created a diverse range of value-added products with extended shelf stability. Emphasis is needed to develop robust promotion and distribution channels and establish an export promotion forum involving all stakeholders to promote and diversify millet-based products and technologies.

Abstract
In this study, the effect of dual modification using ultrasound (100 and 300 W for 5, 10, and 15 min) and microwave (600 W for 45 s) treatments on functional properties of wheat gluten protein (WGP) and whey protein concentrate (WPC), as two by-products of food industry with different primary functional properties, was investigated. Ultrasound treatment did not affect the solubility of both proteins significantly but the emulsion and foam properties were increased up to 10 min. Nevertheless, microwave treatment after ultrasound caused a significant decrease in the solubility of both proteins. However, the foam stability of the WPC and WGP was not significantly modified after microwave treatment. The obtained results showed a more positive effect of ultrasound at 100 W for 10 min than other ultrasound treatments on the functional and structural properties of both proteins. The zeta potential of both proteins was decreased after dual physical modifications, but thermal stability of proteins was improved after microwave treatment.

Abstract
The effects of resonant acoustic mixing (RAM) with different treatment times (0, 5, 10, 15, 20 and 30 min) on the structural and emulsifying properties of pea protein isolate (PPI) were investigated for the first time. Increasing the RAM treatment time from 0 to 20 min decreased the α-helix/β-sheet ratio and particle size of the PPI samples by 37.84 % and 46.44 %, respectively, accompanied by an increase in solubility from 54.79 % to 71.80 % (P < 0.05). Consequently, the emulsifying activity index of PPI (from 10.45 m2/g to 14.2 m2/g) and the physical stability of RAM-PPI emulsions were effectively enhanced, which was confirmed by the small and uniformly distributed oil droplets in the micrographs of the emulsions. However, excessive RAM treatment (30 min) diminished the effectiveness of the aforementioned improvements. Therefore, obviously enhanced solubility and emulsifying properties of PPI can be attained through proper RAM treatment (15-20 min).

Abstract
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a prominent cause of vision loss among the elderly, and the treatment options for dry AMD (dAMD) are severely limited. Lutein has a favorable effect on the treatment of dAMD. Algae oil, rich in docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), is considered an effective intervention for eye diseases. In this study, casein-mannose conjugates were prepared to form algal oil-in-water Pickering emulsions by ultrasound-assisted Maillard reaction. As the ultrasound time increased from 0 to 25 min, the droplet size decreased to 648.2 ± 21.18 nm, which substantially improved the stability of the Pickering emulsions. The retention of lutein in the Pickering emulsions under ultrasonic treatment for 20 min was significantly improved under different conditions. The simulated gastrointestinal digestion revealed that ultrasound-assisted Pickering emulsions are an effective method for improving the bioaccessibility of lutein (19.76%-53.34%). In vivo studies elucidated that the lutein-loaded Pickering emulsions could effectively alleviate retinal thinning induced by sodium iodate (NaIO3) in mice with dAMD. Mechanistically, lutein-loaded Pickering emulsions significantly reduced oxidative stress by decreasing the MDA level, increasing the SOD production, and reducing the retinal ROS production. These findings explored the protective effects of lutein-loaded Pickering emulsions on dAMD and offered promising prospects for the nutritional intervention of dAMD.

Abstract
The Maillard conjugation of hemp protein with d-xylose was studied, focusing on the influence of ultrasonic waves, processing time, and pressure. Cavitation-driven processes, including ultrasonication (US) and manothermosonication (MTS), were found to impact the degree of grafting, functional characteristics, and structural alterations, affecting conjugation efficiency. The glycation of hemp protein with xylose assisted with US and MTS was investigated under varying pressures. MTS- and US-assisted glycation processes result in 4.22- and 1.64-fold higher degrees of grafting compared to the classical method within a short time frame. The MTS procedures also improved solubility (+3.6-fold), emulsion (+15-fold), and foaming (+1.7-fold) properties, especially at optimized pressure levels, compared to classical conjugates. Furthermore, the complexation of MTS-assisted conjugates with curcumin (Cur) enhanced Cur stability by more than 1.4-fold compared to the classical procedure during 20-day storage at 4 oC. The findings suggest potential applications in the pharmaceutical industry, active dairy/meat analog development, and gel formulation.

Abstract
Plant-based proteins have gained popularity in the food industry as a good protein source. Among these, chickpea protein has gained significant attention in recent times due to its high yields, high nutritional content, and health benefits. With an abundance of essential amino acids, particularly lysine, and a highly digestible indispensable amino acid score of 76 (DIAAS), chickpea protein is considered a substitute for animal proteins. However, the application of chickpea protein in food products is limited due to its poor functional properties, such as solubility, water-holding capacity, and emulsifying and gelling properties. To overcome these limitations, various modification methods, including physical, biological, chemical, and a combination of these, have been applied to enhance the functional properties of chickpea protein and expand its applications in healthy food products. Therefore, this review aims to comprehensively examine recent advances in Cicer arietinum (chickpea) protein extraction techniques, characterizing its properties, exploring post-modification strategies, and assessing its diverse applications in the food industry. Moreover, we reviewed the nutritional benefits and sustainability implications, along with addressing regulatory considerations. This review intends to provide insights into maximizing the potential of Cicer arietinum protein in diverse applications while ensuring sustainability and compliance with regulations.

ULTRASONICS SONOCHEMISTRY 2024; 105:106873. [PMID: 38608436 PMCID: PMC11024657 DOI: 10.1016/j.ultsonch.2024.106873] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/26/2023] [Revised: 03/14/2024] [Accepted: 04/07/2024] [Indexed: 04/14/2024]
Abstract
Starting from the consideration of the structure of human milk fat globule (MFG), this study aimed to investigate the effects of ultrasonic treatment on milk fat globule membrane (MFGM) and soy lecithin (SL) complexes and their role in mimicking human MFG emulsions. Ultrasonic power significantly affected the structure of the MFGM-SL complex, further promoting the unfolding of the molecular structure of the protein, and then increased solubility and surface hydrophobicity. Furthermore, the microstructure of mimicking MFG emulsions without sonication was unevenly distributed, and the average droplet diameter was large. After ultrasonic treatment, the droplets of the emulsion were more uniformly dispersed, the particle size was smaller, and the emulsification properties and stability were improved to varying degrees. Especially when the ultrasonic power was 300 W, the mimicking MFG emulsion had the highest encapsulation rate and emulsion activity index and emulsion stability index were increased by 60.88 % and 117.74 %, respectively. From the microstructure, it was observed that the spherical droplets of the mimicking MFG emulsion after appropriate ultrasonic treatment remain well separated without obvious flocculation. This study can provide a reference for the screening of milk fat globules mimicking membrane materials and the further utilization and development of ultrasound in infant formula.

Abstract
This study evaluated the effect of ultrasound treatment combined or not with heat treatment applied to lentil protein isolate (LPI) aiming to enhance its ability to stabilize high internal phase emulsions (HIPE). LPI dispersion (2%, w/w) was ultrasound-treated at 60% (UA) and 70% (UB) amplitude for 7 min; these samples were subjected to and then heat treatments at 70 °C (UAT70 and UBT70, respectively) or 80 °C (UAT80 and UBT80, respectively) for 20 min. HIPEs were produced with 25% untreated and treated LPI dispersions and 75% soybean oil using a rotor-stator (15,500 rpm/1 min). The LPI dispersions were evaluated for particle size, solubility, differential scanning calorimetry, electrophoresis, secondary structure estimation (circular dichroism and FT-IR), intrinsic fluorescence, surface hydrophobicity, and free sulfhydryl groups content. The HIPEs were evaluated for droplet size, morphology, rheology, centrifugal stability, and the Turbiscan test. Ultrasound treatment decreased LPI dispersions' particle size (∼80%) and increased solubility (∼90%). Intrinsic fluorescence and surface hydrophobicity confirmed LPI modification due to the exposure to hydrophobic patches. The combination of ultrasound and heat treatments resulted in a reduction in the free sulfhydryl group content of LPI. HIPEs produced with ultrasound-heat-treated LPI had a lower droplet size distribution mode, greater oil retention values in the HIPE structure (> 98%), lower Turbiscan stability index (< 2), and a firmer and more homogeneous appearance compared to HIPE produced with untreated LPI, indicating higher stability for the HIPEs stabilized by treated LPI. Therefore, combining ultrasound and heat treatments could be an effective method for the functional modification of lentil proteins, allowing their application as HIPE emulsifiers.

Abstract
Amaranth proteins can be produced more sustainably than animal proteins, and they have amino acid compositions that are nutritionally balanced, which makes them attractive candidates for various applications in the food and pharmaceutical industries. This article provides an overview of the composition and techno-functional properties of amaranth protein, including its solubility, emulsification, gelation, foaming, and binding properties. These properties play an important role in the use of amaranth proteins for formulating nanoparticle-based delivery systems with good functional attributes. Amaranth proteins have structural and physicochemical properties suitable for fabricating protein-based nanoparticles. These nanoparticles can be used to encapsulate and control the release of bioactive compounds. However, challenges associated with the presence of anti-nutritional factors in amaranth proteins need to be addressed. These antinutrients negatively affect the bioavailability and digestibility of proteins and bioactive compounds. Hence, strategies to mitigate these challenges are discussed, including processing technologies and genetic engineering methods.

Hong Z, Kong Y, Guo R, Huang Q. Stabilizing effect of silver carp myofibrillar protein modified by high intensity ultrasound on high internal phase emulsions: Protein denaturation, interfacial adsorption and reconfiguration. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 265:130896. [PMID: 38490385 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.130896] [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: 02/02/2024] [Revised: 03/11/2024] [Accepted: 03/12/2024] [Indexed: 03/17/2024]
Abstract
This study evaluated the impact of high intensity ultrasound (HIU) on myofibrillar proteins (MP) from silver carp, and investigated the stabilizing effect of HIU-treated MP (UMP) on high internal phase emulsions (HIPEs). Ultrasonic cavitation induced protein denaturation by decreasing size and unfolding conformation, to expose more hydrophobic groups, particularly UMP at 390 W, showing the smallest particle size (181.71 nm) and most uniform distribution. These structural changes caused that UMP under 390 W exhibited the highest surface hydrophobicity, solubility (92.72 %) and emulsibility (115.98 m2/g and 70.4 min), all of which contributed to fabricating stable HIPEs with oil volume fraction up to 0.8. UMP-based HIPEs possessed tightly packed gel network and self-supporting appearance due to the adsorption of numerous proteins at the oil-water interface and the reduction of interfacial tension by protein reconfiguration. The larger interface coverage reinforced cross-linking between interfacial proteins, thus increasing the viscoelasticity and recoverability of HIPEs, also the resistance to centrifugal force, high temperature (90 °C, 30 min) and freeze-thaw cycles. These findings furnished insightful perspectives for MP deep processing through HIU, expanding the high-value application of UMP-based HIPEs in fat replacer, nutritional delivery system with high encapsulation content and novel 3D printing ink.

The structural characteristics and physicochemical properties of mung bean protein hydrolysate of protamex induced by ultrasound. JOURNAL OF THE SCIENCE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE 2024; 104:3665-3675. [PMID: 38158728 DOI: 10.1002/jsfa.13251] [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: 07/19/2023] [Revised: 12/19/2023] [Accepted: 12/30/2023] [Indexed: 01/03/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The limited physicochemical properties (such as low foaming and emulsifying capacity) of mung bean protein hydrolysate restrict its application in the food industry. Ultrasound treatment could change the structures of protein hydrolysate to accordingly affect its physicochemical properties. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of ultrasound treatment on the structural and physicochemical properties of mung bean protein hydrolysate of protamex (MBHP). The structural characteristics of MBHP were evaluated using tricine sodium dodecylsulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, laser scattering, fluorescence spectrometry, etc. Solubility, fat absorption capacity and foaming, emulsifying and thermal properties were determined to characterize the physicochemical properties of MBHP. RESULTS MBHP and ultrasonicated-MBHPs (UT-MBHPs) all contained five main bands of 25.8, 12.1, 5.6, 4.8 and 3.9 kDa, illustrating that ultrasound did not change the subunits of MBHP. Ultrasound treatment increased the contents of α-helix, β-sheet and random coil and enhanced the intrinsic fluorescence intensity of MBHP, but decreased the content of β-turn, which demonstrated that ultrasound modified the secondary and tertiary structures of MBHP. UT-MBHPs exhibited higher solubility, foaming capacity and emulsifying properties than MBHP, among which MBHP-330 W had the highest solubility (97.32%), foaming capacity (200%), emulsification activity index (306.96 m2 g-1 ) and emulsion stability index (94.80%) at pH 9.0. CONCLUSION Ultrasound treatment enhanced the physicochemical properties of MBHP, which could broaden its application as a vital ingredient in the food industry. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Due to their excellent emulsification, biocompatibility, and biological activity, proteins are widely used as microcapsule wall materials for encapsulating drugs, natural bioactive substances, essential oils, probiotics, etc. In this review, we summarize the protein-based microcapsules, discussing the types of proteins utilized in microcapsule wall materials, the preparation process, and the main factors that influence their properties. Additionally, we conclude with examples of the vital role of protein-based microcapsules in advancing the food industry from primary processing to deep processing and their potential applications in the biomedical, chemical, and textile industries. However, the low stability and controllability of protein wall materials lead to degraded performance and quality of microcapsules. Protein complexes with polysaccharides or modifications to proteins are often used to improve the thermal instability, pH sensitivity, encapsulation efficiency and antioxidant capacity of microcapsules. In addition, factors such as wall material composition, wall material ratio, the ratio of core to wall material, pH, and preparation method all play critical roles in the preparation and performance of microcapsules. The application area and scope of protein-based microcapsules can be further expanded by optimizing the preparation process and studying the microcapsule release mechanism and control strategy.

Abstract
The in-vitro digestive properties of myofibrillar protein (MP) in mirror carp (Cyprinus carpio L.) after freeze-thaw (F-T) cycles were analyzed in terms of the relationship between protein degradation, oxidation, and structural properties. The F-T samples exhibited a significant increase in glucosidase activity, N-acetyl-β-d-glucosidase activity, total protease activity, and non-protein nitrogen content. α-aminoadipate semialdehyde and γ-glutamate semialdehyde contents increased by 23.17% and 123.12%, respectively. Furthermore, 53.97% decrease in the total nitrogen content and changes in the content of different soluble proteins were observed. X-ray diffraction intensity, thermal stability, free amine content, hydrolysis degree, and digestibility of the MP samples decreased, and the 2θ angle and zeta potential were reversed. Besides, changes in the amide band wavenumbers were also detected. Therefore, the protein structure was unfolded and aggregates were formed through degradation and oxidation induced by the F-T cycles, ultimately making the in-vitro digestion of MP difficult.

Abstract
Finger millet, rich in nutrients, faces bioavailability limitations due to antinutrients like phytates and tannins that can be reduced by ultrasound mediated hydration (USH). Here, USH process of finger millet was optimized by varying ultrasound amplitude, water to grain ratio (W:G), treatment time, and frequency for reducing antinutrients and improving techno-functional attributes. USH resulted in a maximum reduction of 73% and 71% in phytates and tannins, respectively. The process was modeled using artificial neural network (ANN) and response surface methodology (RSM). ANN outperformed RSM in process prediction, and particle swarm optimization (ANN-PSO) suggested optimal conditions: 76% amplitude, W:G of 3.5:1, 17.5 min treatment time at 40 kHz. USH samples showed higher β-sheet, β-turn, and random coil proportions, with lower α-helix levels. Multivariate analysis also identified higher amplitude and frequency, with shorter treatment time as desirable USH conditions. USH could aid in enhancing commercial viability and nutritional quality of finger millet.

Abstract
This study investigated the effects of different irradiation doses of an electron beam (e-beam) (0, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 kGy) on the structure, emulsification, foaming, and rheological and gel properties of soybean 11S globulin. The irradiation treatment at 4 and 6 kGy significantly increased the solubility, surface hydrophobicity, disulfide bonding, and ζ-potential of 11S globulin, decreased the particle size of the protein solution, and effectively improved the emulsifying activity and foaming stability of the protein solution. Moreover, irradiation induced moderate cross-linking and aggregation of the proteins, thereby increasing the apparent viscosity and shear stress of the protein solution. In addition, the low-field NMR and microstructure analysis results revealed that protein gels formed a dense and homogeneous three-dimensional mesh structure after irradiation (6 kGy), along with increased content of bound water (T2b) and water not readily flowable (T21) and a decrease content of free water (T22). Overall, our results confirmed that e-beam irradiation could significantly improve the physicochemical properties of soybean 11S globulin. Our study thus provides a new technical means for the application of electron beam irradiation technology toward protein modification and broadens the high-value utilization of soybean 11S globulin in the food processing industry.

Abstract
This study aimed to assess the nutritional quality and digestibility of proteins in two red seaweed species, Gelidium corneum and Gracilaropsis longissima, through the application of in vitro gastrointestinal digestions, and evaluate the impact of two consecutive processing steps, extrusion and compression moulding, to produce food snacks. The protein content in both seaweeds was approximately 16 %, being primarily located within the cell walls. Both species exhibited similar amino acid profiles, with aspartic and glutamic acid being most abundant. However, processing impacted their amino acid profiles, leading to a significant decrease in labile amino acids like lysine. Nevertheless, essential amino acids constituted 35-36 % of the total in the native seaweeds and their processed products. Although the protein digestibility in both seaweed species was relatively low (<60 %), processing, particularly extrusion, enhanced it by approximately 10 %. Interestingly, the effect of the different processing steps on the digestibility varied between the two species. This difference was mainly attributed to compositional and structural differences. G. corneum exhibited increased digestibility with each processing step, while G. longissima reached maximum digestibility after extrusion. Notably, changes in the amino acid profiles of the processed products affected adversely the protein nutritional quality, with lysine becoming the limiting amino acid. These findings provide the basis for developing strategies to enhance protein quality in these seaweed species, thereby facilitating high-quality food production with potential applications in the food industry.

Abstract
The fava bean protein isolate (FBPI) holds promise as a sustainable plant-based protein ingredient. However, native FBPIs exhibit limited functionality, including unsuitable emulsifying activities and a low solubility at a neutral pH, restricting their applications. This study is focused on the effect of ultrasonication (US) and pulsed electric fields (PEF) on modulating the techno-functional properties of FBPIs. Native FBPIs were treated with US at amplitudes of 60-90% for 30 min in 0.5 s on-and-off cycles and with PEF at an electric field intensity of 1.5 kV/cm with 1000-4000 pulses of 20 μs pulse widths. US caused a reduction in the size and charge of the FBPIs more prominently than the PEF. Protein characterization by means of SDS-PAGE illustrated that US and PEF caused severe-to-moderate changes in the molecular weight of the FBPIs. In addition, a spectroscopic analysis using Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) and circular dichroism (CD) revealed that US and the PEF induced conformational changes through partial unfolding and secondary structure remodeling from an α-helix to a β-sheet. Crystallographic and calorimetric determinations indicated decreased crystallinity and lowered thermal transition temperatures of the US- and PEF-modified FBPIs. Overall, non-thermal processing provided an effective strategy for upgrading FBPIs' functionality, with implications for developing competitive plant-based protein alternatives.

Abstract
Functional and structural properties of Moringa protein concentrate (MPC), obtained from defatted Moringa oleifera seed, were investigated after treating it with an ultrasonic technique. For this purpose, dried M. oleifera seed powder was defatted and subjected to a simple protein precipitation method to generate a MPC with 73.2% protein contents. Then, a Box-Behnken design was applied to optimize the sonication treatment of MPC where ultrasound amplitude (20-80%), treatment time (5-25 min), and solute-to-solvent ratio (0.1-0.3 g/mL) were studied as factors that influence the protein solubility (PS), emulsion capacity (EC), and foaming capacity (FC) of MPC. The optimal conditions were amplitude of 58%, time of 18 min, and solute to solvent ratio of 0.18 g/mL. At these conditions, PS, EC, and FC were increased to 42, 33, and 73%, respectively, in comparison to untreated one. The structural modification by ultrasound was further confirmed by using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy which illustrated the MPC modification through the changes in the peak width of amide-I band. Similarly, the intrinsic fluorescence spectral signature also showed a significant increase in the amino residues of MPC. In conclusion, the exposure of hydrophilic groups and the alteration of secondary and tertiary structures induced by ultrasonic treatment improved the functional characteristics of MPC.

Abstract
Oat protein is becoming an important ingredient in beverages and formulated foods owing to its high nutritive value and bland flavor; yet, its functionality remains largely unexplored. This study sought to enhance the surface activity of oat protein isolate (OPI) through high-intensity ultrasound (HIU; at 20 or 60 °C) combined with high pressure homogenization (HP; 30 MPa) treatments. Sonication disturbed the protein conformation and significantly improved surface hydrophobicity (19.7%) and ζ-potential (15.7%), which were further augmented by subsequent HP (P < 0.05). Confocal microscopy revealed a uniform oil droplet distribution in emulsions prepared with HIU+HP combination treated OPI, and the oil droplet size decreased up to 35.6% when compared to that of non-treated OPI emulsion (d = 1718 nm). Emulsifying activity was greater for HIU+HP than for HIU, and the viscosity followed a similar trend. Moreover, while emulsions prepared with HIU or HP treated OPI were more stable than control, the 60 °C HIU+HP combination treatment yielded the maximum stability. In corroboration, a model salad dressing prepared from HIU+HP treated OPI displayed a homogenous oil droplet distribution and an improved viscosity. Therefore, thermosonication combined with high pressure homogenization may be suitable for salad dressings and other oil-imbedded food products.

[PMID: 35916255 PMCID: PMC10730211 DOI: 10.1080/15592324.2022.2105021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2022] [Revised: 07/18/2022] [Accepted: 07/18/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
Early Responsive to Dehydration (ERD) genes are rapidly induced in response to various biotic and abiotic stresses, such as bacteria, drought, light, temperature and high salt in Arabidopsis thaliana. Sixteen ERD of Arabidopsis thaliana (AtERD) genes have been previously identified. The lengths of the coding region of the genes are 504-2838 bp. They encode 137-745 amino acids. In this study, the AtERD genes structure and promoter are analyzed through bioinformatics, and a overall function is summarized and a systematic signal pathway involving AtERD genes is mapped. AtERD9, AtERD11 and AtERD13 have the GST domain. AtERD10 and AtERD14 have the Dehyd domain. The promoters regions contain 32 light responsive elements, 23 ABA responsive elements, 5 drought responsive elements, 5 meristem expression related elements and 132 core promoter elements. The study provides a theoretical guidance for subsequent studies of AtERD genes.

Improvement of foaming properties of ovalbumin: Insights into the synergistic effect of preheating and high-intensity ultrasound on physicochemical properties and structure analysis. ULTRASONICS SONOCHEMISTRY 2023; 101:106672. [PMID: 37925915 PMCID: PMC10656216 DOI: 10.1016/j.ultsonch.2023.106672] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/16/2023] [Revised: 10/17/2023] [Accepted: 10/28/2023] [Indexed: 11/07/2023]
Abstract
Ovalbumin (OVA), characterized by its high concentration in eggs, possesses remarkable foaming properties. Nevertheless, OVA is highly sensitive to thermal changes and acid-base conditions, substantially hampering its application potential for foaming purposes within the food industry. This experiment aimed to examine the effects of preheating and high-intensity ultrasound (HIU) treatment at different powers on OVA foaming properties and explore the underlying mechanisms. The results revealed that OVA exhibited the highest foaming capacity (31.5 %) and foaming stability (96.7 %) under the treatment condition of 200w + 60°C. Additionally, significant improvements were observed in the content of free sulfhydryl groups (37.27 μmg/g), solution viscosity (142.33 mPa·s), and surface hydrophobicity (37.27 μg BPB) under this condition. The absolute value of the zeta potential (-10.28 mV) was significantly increased in the 200w + 60°C treatment group. Moreover, the polymer dispersity index of OVA (0.6045) was significantly reduced, resulting in improved dispersion than the control group. The structural analysis revealed significant changes in the α-helix and β-sheet content of OVA after treatment at 200w + 60 °C. The X-ray diffraction pattern exhibited sharper peaks, indicating a crystal structure, and the fluorescence peak displayed a slight blue shift along with increased hydrophobicity. Moreover, the preheating and HIU treatment induced a continuous uneven and irregular pore structure in OVA, which ultimately enhanced its foaming properties. In conclusion, the preheating and HIU treatment offers a novel approach to enhance the foaming properties of OVA.

Abstract
Mechanical energy in the form of ultrasound and protein complexes intuitively have been considered as two distinct unrelated topics. However, in the past few years, increasingly more attention has been paid to the ability of ultrasound to induce chemical modifications on protein molecules that further change protein-protein interaction and protein self-assembling behavior. Despite efforts to decipher the exact structure and the behavior-modifying effects of ultrasound on proteins, our current understanding of these aspects remains limited. The limitation arises from the complexity of both phenomena. Ultrasound produces multiple chemical, mechanical, and thermal effects in aqueous media. Proteins are dynamic molecules with diverse complexation mechanisms. This review provides an exhaustive analysis of the progress made in better understanding the role of ultrasound in protein complexation. It describes in detail how ultrasound affects an aqueous environment and the impact of each effect separately and when combined with the protein structure and fold, the protein-protein interaction, and finally the protein self-assembly. It specifically focuses on modifying role of ultrasound in amyloid self-assembly, where the latter is associated with multiple neurodegenerative disorders.

Abstract
Recently, there has been a growing interest in advancing plant-based or cultured meat substitutes as environmentally and ethically superior alternatives to traditional animal-derived meat. In pursuit of simulating the authentic meat structure, a composite fiber composed primarily of soy protein isolates (SPIs) was fashioned, employing a fiber-based plant-based analog meat construct. To refine the spinning process and enhance fiber quality, we employed ultrasound treatment, a physical modification technique, to scrutinize its influence on SPI protein structure. This inquiry extended to the examination of the interplay between sodium alginate (SA) and SPI, as well as the impact of salt ions on the SA and ultrasound soy protein isolates (USPI) interaction. A comprehensive exploration encompassing ultrasound treatments and salt concentrations within the composite solution, along with their repercussions on composite fiber characterization, with a rise in negative zeta potential value, states the ultrasound treatment fosters protein aggregation. Moreover, the introduction of salt augments protein aggregation as salt content escalates, ultimately resulting in a reduced structural viscosity index and improved spinnability. The presence of Ca2+ ions during the coagulation process leads to interactions with SA. The involvement of ultrasound prompts the exposure of hydrophilic amino acid segments in the protein to water, leading to the development of a more porous structure. Solely under the influence of ultrasound, the fiber exhibits 5% higher water-holding capacity and superior mechanical properties while maintaining comparable thermal stability.

Abstract
Even though plant proteins are more plentiful and affordable than animal proteins in comparison, direct usage of plant-based proteins (PBPs) is still limited because PBPs are fed to animals as feed to produce animal-based proteins. Thus, this work has comprehensively reviewed the effects of various factors such as pH, temperature, pressure, and ionic strength on PBP properties, as well as describes the protein interactions, and extraction methods to know the optimal conditions for preparing PBP-based products with high functional properties and health benefits. According to the cited studies in the current work, the environmental factors, particularly pH and ionic strength significantly affected on physicochemical and functional properties of PBPs, especially solubility was 76.0% to 83.9% at pH = 2, while at pH = 5.0 reduced from 5.3% to 9.6%, emulsifying ability was the lowest at pH = 5.8 and the highest at pH 8.0, and foaming capacity was lowest at pH 5.0 and the highest at pH = 7.0. Electrostatic interactions are the main way for protein interactions, which can be used to create protein/polysaccharide complexes for food industrial purposes. The extraction yield of proteins can be reached up to 86-95% with high functional properties using sustainable and efficient routes, including enzymatic, ultrasound-, microwave-, pulsed electric field-, and high-pressure-assisted extraction. Nondairy alternative products, especially yogurt, 3D food printing and meat analogs, synthesis of nanoparticles, and bioplastics and packaging films are the best available PBPs-based products. Moreover, PBPs particularly those that contain pigments and their products showed good bioactivities, especially antioxidants, antidiabetic, and antimicrobial.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Milk proteins (MPs) have been widely used in the food industry due to their excellent functionalities. However, MPs are thermal-unstable substances and their functional properties are easily affected by heat treatment. Emerging non-thermal approaches (i.e., high-pressure homogenization (HPH), ultrasound (US), pulsed electric field (PEF)) have been increasingly popular. A detailed understanding of these approaches' impacts on the structure and functionalities of MPs can provide theoretical guidance for further development to accelerate their industrialization. SCOPE AND APPROACH This review assesses the mechanisms of HPH, US and PEF technologies on the structure and functionalities of MPs from molecular, mesoscopic and macroscopic levels, elucidates the modifications of MPs by these theologies combined with other methods, and further discusses their existing issues and the development in the food filed. KEY FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS The structure of MPs changed after HPH, US and PEF treatment, affecting their functionalities. The changes in these properties of MPs are related to treated-parameters of used-technologies, the concentration of MPs, as well as molecular properties. Additionally, these technologies combined with other methods could obtain some outstanding functional properties for MPs. If properly managed, these theologies can be tailored for manufacturing superior functional MPs for various processing fields.

Abstract
This study investigated the effects of ultrasound-assisted water thawing (UWT) at different power levels (0, 100, 150, 200, and 250 W) on the thawing rate and gel properties of frozen tofu made using three different salt coagulants (CaCl2, CaSO4, and MgCl2). Tofu produced with CaCl2 and CaSO4 elicited gel structures with dense and homogeneous networks, while that with MgCl2 had rough pores and irregular networks. UWT treatment significantly decreased thawing time by 30.9-53.5% compared to the control. Water holding capacity and scanning electron microscopy analyses demonstrated that UWT-100, UWT-150, and UWT-200 should be used to increase the amount of fixed water for CaCl2, CaSO4, and MgCl2. These findings suggest that appropriate ultrasonic treatment could improve the water retention capacity of the tofu network and make the gel network structure more compact. Additionally, protein structural analysis showed a decrease in the exposure of hydrophobic groups and reduced protein denaturation when tofu prepared with all the coagulants were thawed with UWT energies of 100-200 W ultrasonication. These findings offer theoretical support for improving the frozen tofu thawing process while ensuring optimal final product quality.

Abstract
Structural modification of protein prior to food application is an emergent approach to improve functionalization. The effectiveness of high-power ultrasound at varying amplitudes (0-100%) on the properties of pea protein powder was investigated in this study. The resulting modification was also tested with model gluten-free bread formulation and by screening the emulsion properties within vegetable oil. The 50% and beyond amplitude levels had significant impact on protein solubility, viscosity, Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectra, emulsion activity and stability. Foaming capacity and stability were enhanced with 75 and 100% amplitudes while the 25% amplitude exhibited the highest absolute zeta-potential. There was a concomitant increase in ultrasound amplitude and oil-binding capacity (2.83-6.43 g/g) where the water-holding capacity gradually decreased (5.78-3.61 g/g) with the increase in ultrasound power. The increase in ultrasound power led to decrease in L* values but progressively increased the total color difference (ΔE). Sonication (50% amplitude) also promoted the in-vitro digestibility of proteins by 22% as compared to the untreated sample. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) fairly depictured the structural modification and FTIR spectra clearly demonstrated conformational changes in protein powders. The fortification with restructured pea protein powder significantly affected the volume and adhesiveness of glutenfree bread.

Abstract
α-Tocopherol has been widely used in medicine, cosmetics, and food industry as a nutritional supplement and antioxidant. However, α-tocopherol showed low bioaccessibility, and there is a widespread α-tocopherol deficiency in society today. The preparation of oil-in-water emulsions with high safety and low-calorie property is necessary. The aim of this research was to investigate the effects of different protein emulsifiers (whey protein isolate (WPI), soy protein isolate (SPI), and sodium casein (SC)) on the properties of emulsions delivery system, and diacylglycerol (DAG) was picked as a low-accumulated lipid. The interfacial changes, microstructural alterations, and possible interactions of the protein-stabilized DAG emulsions were investigated during the in vitro digestion. The results show that different proteins affect the degree of digestibility and α-tocopherol bioaccessibility of the emulsions. Both WPI- and SPI-coated emulsions showed good digestibility and α-tocopherol bioaccessibility (77.64 ± 2.93%). This might be due to the strong hydrolysis resistance of WPI (β-lactoglobulin) and the good emulsification ability of SPI. The SC-coated emulsion showed the lowest digestibility and α-tocopherol bioaccessibility, this might be due to the emulsification property of hydrolysis products of SC and the potential interaction with calcium ions. This study provides new possibilities for the application of DAG emulsions in delivery systems.

Abstract
High-intensity ultrasound (HIU) is considered one of the promising non-chemical eco-friendly techniques used in food processing. Recently (HIU) is known to enhance food quality, extraction of bioactive compounds and formulation of emulsions. Various foods are treated with ultrasound, including fats, bioactive compounds, and proteins. Regarding proteins, HIU induces acoustic cavitation and bubble formation, causing the unfolding and exposure of hydrophobic regions, resulting in functional, bioactive, and structural enhancement. This review briefly portrays the impact of HIU on the bioavailability and bioactive properties of proteins; the effect of HIU on protein allergenicity and anti-nutritional factors has also been discussed. HIU can enhance bioavailability and bioactive attributes in plants and animal-based proteins, such as antioxidant activity, antimicrobial activity, and peptide release. Moreover, numerous studies revealed that HIU treatment could enhance functional properties, increase the release of short-chain peptides, and decrease allergenicity. HIU could replace the chemical and heat treatments used to enhance protein bioactivity and digestibility; however, its applications are still on research and small scale, and its usage in industries is yet to be implemented.

[PMID: 37269691 DOI: 10.1016/j.ultsonch.2023.106448] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/23/2023] [Revised: 05/15/2023] [Accepted: 05/17/2023] [Indexed: 06/05/2023]
Abstract
Natural resource depletion, negative environmental effects and the challenge to secure global food security led to the establishment of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In need to explore underutilized sustainable protein sources, this study aims at isolating protein from cowpea by ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE), where the techno-functional characteristics of the protein isolates were studied at different sonication conditions i.e., 100 W and 200 W at processing times ranging from 5 to 20 min. The US at 200 W-10 min produced the optimal results for all properties. In this process combination, there was an increase in protein yield, solubility, water-holding capacity, foaming capacity and stability, emulsion activity and stability, zeta-potential, and in-vitro protein digestibility from 31.78% to 58.96%, 57.26% to 68.85%, 3.06 g/g to 3.68 g/g 70.64% to 83.74%, 30.76% to 60.01%, 47.48% to 64.26%, 56.59% to 87.71%, -32.9 mV to -44.2 mV and 88.27% to 89.99%, respectively and particle size dropped from 763 nm to 559 nm in comparison to control. The microstructure and secondary-structure alterations of proteins caused by sonication were validated by SEM images, SDS-PAGE, and FTIR analyses. Sonication leads to acoustic cavitation and penetrate the cell walls, improving extraction from the solid to liquid phase. After sonication, the hydrophobic protein groups were exposed and proteins were partially denatured which increased its functionality. The findings demonstrated that UAE of cowpea protein improved yield, modify characteristics to fit the needs of the food industry, and contribute to achieving SDGs 2, 3, 7, 12, and 13.

Abstract
Starch is the main substrate in millet thick wine (MTW). In order to control the fermentation process of MTW, it is critical to monitor changes in the starch structure and physicochemical characteristics during the fermentation of MTW. In the present study, the structural characteristics of MTW starch were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and rapid viscosity analysis (RVA). The results of SEM and CLSM showed that large starch granules in MTW swelled, developed cavities, and ruptured or even vanished with the prolongation of the fermentation time, whereas the size and shape of small starch granules barely changed, only falling off the pomegranate-seed-like aggregates. With the increase in fermentation time, the relative crystallinity of starch in MTW gradually increased. In addition, the short-range ordered structures underwent complex changes. Changes in the starch morphology and ordered structure led to an increase in the peak viscosity time and the initial gelatinization temperature. The present results reveal the beneficial effect of fermentation on MTW processing and suggest its potential applications in other millet-based fermented products.

Abstract
Plant-derived proteins, such as those from sesame seeds, have the potential to be used as versatile food ingredients. End-use functionality can be further improved by high-intensity ultrasound treatments. The effects of high-intensity ultrasound on the properties of sesame protein isolates from cold-pressed sesame cake were evaluated. The SDS-PAGE demonstrated no significant changes in the molecular weight of proteins. Ultrasound treatments resulted in decreased particle size with a more uniform distribution, resulting in the exposure of hydrophobicity and free -SH groups and increased zeta potential. Although FTIR spectra of proteins were similar after ultrasonication, a partial increase in the intensity of the amide A band was observed. The ultrasound significantly (p < 0.05) affected the secondary structure of proteins. While optical micrographics revealed a dispersed structure with smaller particles after treatments, microstructural observations indicated more rough and irregular surfaces. Water solubility was improved to 80.73% in the sample subjected to 6 min of ultrasonication. Sesame protein solutions treated for 4 and 6 min exhibited viscoelastic structure (storage modulus (G') > loss modulus (G'')). In addition, the gelation temperature of proteins decreased to about 60-65 °C with increasing treatment time. Overall, ultrasound is a useful technique for the modification of sesame protein isolates.

Abstract
The denaturation state and relatively poor solubility of brewer's spent grain protein (BSGP) have limited its industrial application. Ultrasound treatment and glycation reaction were applied to improve the structural and foaming properties of BSGP. The results showed that all ultrasound, glycation, and ultrasound-assisted glycation treatments increased the solubility and surface hydrophobicity of BSGP while decreasing its zeta potential, surface tension and particle size. Meanwhile, all these treatments resulted in a more disordered and flexible conformation of BSGP, as observed by CD spectroscopy and SEM. After grafting, the result of FTIR spectroscopy confirmed the covalent binding of -OH between maltose and BSGP. Ultrasound-assisted glycation treatment further improved the free SH and S-S content, which might be due to -OH oxidation, indicating that ultrasound promoted the glycation reaction. Furthermore, all these treatments significantly increased the foaming capacity (FC) and foam stability (FS) of BSGP. Notably, BSGP treated with ultrasound showed the best foaming properties, increasing the FC from 82.22% to 165.10% and the FS from 10.60% to 131.20%, respectively. In particular, the foam collapse rate of BSGP treated with ultrasound-assisted glycation was lower than that of ultrasound or traditional wet-heating glycation treatment. The enhanced hydrogen bonding ability and hydrophobic interaction between protein molecules caused by ultrasound and glycation might be responsible for the improved foaming properties of BSGP. Thus, ultrasound and glycation reactions were efficient methods for producing BSGP-maltose conjugates with superior foaming properties.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It would be impossible to imagine a country where cereals and their byproducts were not at the peak of foodstuff systems as a source of food, fertilizer, or for fiber and fuel production. Moreover, the production of cereal proteins (CPs) has recently attracted the scientific community's interest due to the increasing demands for physical wellbeing and animal health. However, the nutritional and technological enhancements of CPs are needed to ameliorate their functional and structural properties. Ultrasonic technology is an emerging nonthermal method to change the functionality and conformational characteristics of CPs. Scope and approach: This article briefly discusses the effects of ultrasonication on the characteristics of CPs. The effects of ultrasonication on the solubility, emulsibility, foamability, surface-hydrophobicity, particle-size, conformational-structure, microstructural, enzymatic-hydrolysis, and digestive properties are summarized. CONCLUSIONS The results demonstrate that ultrasonication could be used to enhance the characteristics of CPs. Proper ultrasonic treatment could improve functionalities such as solubility, emulsibility, and foamability, and is a good method for altering protein structures (including surface hydrophobicity, sulfhydryl and disulfide bonds, particle size, secondary and tertiary structures, and microstructure). In addition, ultrasonic treatment could effectively promote the enzymolytic efficiency of CPs. Furthermore, the in vitro digestibility was enhanced after suitable sonication treatment. Therefore, ultrasonication technology is a useful method to modify cereal protein functionality and structure for the food industry.

Abstract
Millets are small-seeded crops which have been well adopted globally owing to their high concentration of macro and micronutrients such as protein, dietary fibre, essential fatty acids, minerals and vitamins. Considering their climate resilience and potential role in nutritional and health security, the year 2023 has been declared as 'International Year of Millets' by the United Nations. Cereals being the major nutrient vehicle for a majority population, and proteins being the second most abundant nutrient in millets, these grains can be a suitable alternative for plant-based proteins. Therefore, this review was written with an aim to succinctly provide an overview of the available literature take on the characterization, processing and applications of millet-based proteins. This information would play an important role in realizing the research gap restricting the utilization of complete potential of millet proteins. This can be further used by researchers and food industries for understanding the scope of millet proteins as an ingredient for novel food product development.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The present study aimed to investigate the effects of the thermo-mechanical and rheological properties of a wheat gluten-sonicated model dough and noodles, as well as the effects of ultrasonic frequency (20, 28, 40, 68 and 80 kHz) on the functional properties and structural features of gluten. RESULTS Water absorption, stability and developmental time, and viscoelastic behavior of gluten-sonicated model dough were all found to be improved. Water absorption, tensile resistance and stretching distance of noodles increased markedly, whereas cooking loss decreased. Ultrasonication at different frequencies also significantly affected gluten structure, including its surface hydrophobicity, micro-network structure, and secondary and tertiary structures. These alterations then caused changes in its functional characteristics. Compared to untreated gluten, sonicated gluten exhibited significantly increased oil and water capacities (8.75-15.26% and 100.65-127.71% higher than the untreated gluten, respectively), foaming and emulsifying properties, and increased solubility (63.46-98.83% higher than control). In addition, these findings indicated that 40 kHz was the likely resonance frequency of the cavitation bubble in the gluten solution. However, sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis electropherograms revealed that such treatments did not affect the molecular weight of gluten, which was also consistent with its unchanged disulfide bond content. CONCLUSION The present study clarified the impact of frequency on the properties of gluten and model dough. The best frequency for modification of gluten was 40 kHz. Collectively, these findings suggest that ultrasonic technology has the potential for use in modifying wheat gluten and commercial noodle processing. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Hempseed protein has become a promising candidate as a future alternative protein source due to its high nutritional value. In the current study, hempseed protein isolate (HPI) was obtained using ultrasonic-assisted extraction with the aim to improve the functionality of HPI via protein structure modification. The solubility of HPI could be improved twofold under 20 kHz ultrasound processing compared to conventional alkaline extraction-isoelectric point precipitation. The protein solubility was gradually enhanced as the ultrasonic power improved, whereas excessive ultrasound intensity would cause a decline in protein solubility. Ultrasonic processing was found to have beneficial effects on the other functionalities of the extracted HPI, such as emulsifying and foaming properties. This improvement can be ascribed to the physical effects of acoustic cavitation that changed the secondary and tertiary structures of the protein to enhance surface hydrophobicity and decrease the particle size of the extracted protein aggregates. In addition, more available thiols were observed in US-treated samples, which could be another reason for improved functionality. However, the results of this study also revealed that prolonged high-power ultrasound exposure may eventually have a detrimental impact on HPI functional properties due to protein aggregation. Overall, this study suggests that high intensity ultrasound can enhance the functionality of HPI, which may ultimately improve its value in HPI-based food products.

Abstract
The β-lactoglobulin-chlorogenic acid (LG-CA) conjugate was explored to be formed through ultrasonication, redox-pair method and their combination, the ultrasonication used a probe ultrasonic machine with a 6 mm probe at 270 W, and the frequency was 20-25 kHz. The formation of the conjugate was confirmed by SDS-PAGE with a larger molecular weight. Besides, Fourier infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and Circular dichroism (CD) indicated changes in the secondary structure of the LG-CA conjugate. The α-helix and β-sheet contents of LG decreased and the unordered content increased significantly after the formation of covalent complexes. In addition, both the ultrasonic treatment and its combination with redox-pair method could significantly improve the antioxidant properties of LG. The former increased to 23.16 μmol Trolox/g sample, the latter 82-106 μmol Trolox/g sample. Therefore, ultrasonication could be used both individually and in combination with the redox-pair method to produce LG-CA conjugates with stronger antioxidant activities.

Rahman MM, Lamsal BP. Effects of atmospheric cold plasma and high-power sonication on rheological and gelling properties of mung bean protein dispersions. Food Res Int 2023; 163:112265. [PMID: 36596176 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2022.112265] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/14/2022] [Revised: 11/23/2022] [Accepted: 11/27/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022]
Abstract
The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of high-power sonication (HPS) and atmospheric cold plasma (ACP) on gelling and rheological properties of mung bean protein dispersions. HPS at 250 J/mL for 2 min and ACP at 80 kV for 5 min were applied to different concentrations of mung bean protein isolate (MBPI). Control and HPS-treated MBPI dispersions showed a minimum gelling concentration (MGC) of 16% w/v, while ACP-treated dispersions started to gel at 14% w/v. Dynamic rheology of dispersions at 16 % concentrations showed that HPS and ACP treatments could reduce the initial gelling temperature to 52° and 65 °C, respectively, from 75 °C for no-treatment control. ACP-treated 16% protein dispersions showed a six-fold higher storage modulus (G') than the control. In addition, ACP treatment resulted in significantly more hydrophobic bonds (∼5.0 g/L) than control (∼1.4 g/L) and HPS-treated (∼1.1 g/L) MBPI gels; however, the net interaction of ionic, hydrogen, hydrophobic, and disulfide bonds was higher in HPS-treated MBPI gels. Thus, both ACP and HPS treatments altered the gelling characteristics of mung bean protein dispersions- ACP reduced MGC and improved firmness, whereas HPS improved the springiness, cohesiveness, gumminess, chewiness, and resilience of the gels.

Abstract
Date kernel is a plant-derived byproduct that has the potential to be converted into a high-value-added food ingredient, such as protein concentrate, in the food industry. Ultrasound, which is an alternative method for improving the functional properties of food proteins, is an effective physical treatment for modifying protein functionality. Solubility is the main criterion that primarily affects other functional properties of protein concentrates, such as emulsification, foaming, and water and oil binding. The aim of this study is to enhance the techno-functional performance of date seed protein concentrate (DSPC) by maximizing the solubility via a high-intensity ultrasound (HIUS) treatment at a fixed frequency of 20 kHz. The effect of ultrasonic homogenization under varying amplitudes and times (amplitude of 40, 60, and 80% for 5, 10, and 15 min, respectively) on the functional properties of the DSPC was investigated by using the response surface methodology (RSM). A face-centered central composite design (FC-CCD) revealed that the optimal process conditions of HIUS were at an amplitude of 80% for 15 min. The physicochemical and functional properties of the ultrasound-applied concentrate (DSPC-US) were determined under the optimum HIUS conditions, and then these properties of DSPC-US were compared to the native DSPC. The results showed that the solubility of all DSPC samples treated by HIUS was significantly (p < 0.05) higher than that of the native DSPC. In addition, emulsion activity/stability, foaming activity/stability, and oil-binding capacity increased after HIUS homogenization treatments, whereas the water-binding capacity decreased. These changes in the techno-functional properties of the DSPC-US were explained by the modification to the physicochemical structure of the DSPC (particle size, zeta potential, SDS-PAGE, SEM, FTIR, DSC, free SH content, surface hydrophobicity, and intrinsic emission). This work revealed that HIUS could be an effective treatment for enhancing the functional properties of date seed protein concentrate.

Abstract
In this study, water extracts from fermented (F), ultrasonicated (US), and enzyme-hydrolyzed (E) rice bran (RB) were evaluated against sixteen fungal plant stem and root-rot-associated pathogens. The effects of pre-treated RB additives on plant growth substrate (PGS) on bean and tomato seed germination, stem height and root length of seedlings, and chlorophyll concentration in plants were analyzed. The results showed that US-assisted pre-treatments did not affect protein content in RB, while 36 h semi-solid fermentation (SSF) reduced protein content by 10.3–14.8%. US initiated a 2.9- and 2-fold increase in total sugar and total phenolics (TPC) contents compared to the untreated RB (3.89 g/100 g dw and 0.61 mg GAE/g dw, respectively). Lactic acid (19.66–23.42 g/100 g dw), acetic acid (10.54–14.24 g/100g dw), propionic acid (0.40–1.72 g/100 g dw), phenolic compounds (0.82–1.04 mg GAE/g dw), among which phenolic acids, such as p-coumaric, cinnamic, sinapic, vanillic, and ferulic, were detected in the fermented RB. The RBF extracts showed the greatest growth-inhibition effect against soil-born plant pathogens, such as Fusarium, Pythium, Sclerotinia, Aspergillus, Pseudomonas, and Verticillium. Beans and tomatoes grown in RBUS+E- and RBF-supplemented PGS increased the germination rate (14–75%), root length (21–44%), and stem height (25–47%) compared to seedlings grown in PGS. The RB additives increased up to 44.6–48.8% of the chlorophyll content in both plants grown under greenhouse conditions. The results indicate that the biological potential of rice-milling waste as a plant-growth-promoting substrate component can be enhanced using solid-state fermentation with antimicrobial LABs and US processing.

Abstract
Ultrasound is one of the non-thermal, green, and novel technologies used to functionalize plant proteins. We recently determined the optimum conditions of high-intensity ultrasound (HIUS) treatment for maximum solubility and investigated the functional properties of hemp seed protein isolate (HSPI) under the optimal conditions. In this study, we analyzed changes in primary, secondary, and tertiary structures, physical microstructures, thermal stability, and antioxidant capacity of ultrasound-applied hemp protein isolate (HSPI-HIUS). The free SH group content (+59%) and zeta potential (+25%) increased upon ultrasound treatment. The electrophoretic protein patterns of HSPI showed no significant change after HIUS treatment. The FTIR spectrum revealed the wavenumber shifts in Amid 1 and 2 regions of protein. The denaturation temperature and the ratio of β-structure increased after sonication. Antioxidant properties of hemp seed protein isolates were increased by 38% by ultrasound treatment. The obtained data in this study showed that HIUS treatment would be promising for improving the functional, physicochemical, and antioxidant properties of HSPI.

Impacts of sonication and high hydrostatic pressure on the structural and physicochemical properties of quinoa protein isolate dispersions at acidic, neutral and alkaline pHs. ULTRASONICS SONOCHEMISTRY 2022; 91:106232. [PMID: 36435086 PMCID: PMC9694062 DOI: 10.1016/j.ultsonch.2022.106232] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/07/2022] [Revised: 11/15/2022] [Accepted: 11/19/2022] [Indexed: 06/01/2023]
Abstract
Herein, 1 wt% quinoa protein isolate (QPI) was exposed to sonication using a 20 kHz ultrasonicator equipped with a 6 mm horn (14.4 W, 10 mL, up to 15 min) or high hydrostatic pressure (HHP, up to 600 MPa, 15 min) treatments at pH 5, pH 7, and pH 9. The changes to physicochemical properties were probed by SDS-PAGE, FTIR, free sulfhydryl group (SH), surface hydrophobicity (H0), particle size and solubility. As revealed by SDS-PAGE, substantial amounts of 11S globulin participated in the formations of aggregates via SS bond under HHP, particularly at pH 7 and pH 9. However, protein profiles of QPI were not significantly affected by the sonication. Free SH groups and surface hydrophobicity were increased after the sonication treatment indicating protein unfolding and exposure of the embedded SH and/or hydrophobic groups. An opposite trend was observed in HHP treated samples, implying aggregation and reassociation of structures under HHP. HHP and sonication treatments induced a decrease in ordered secondary structures (random coil and β-turn) accompanied with an increase in disordered secondary structures (α-helix and β-sheet) as probed by FTIR. Finally, the sonication treatment induced a significant improvement in the solubility (up to ∼3 folds at pH 7 and ∼2.6 folds at pH 9) and a reduction in particle sizes (up to ∼3 folds at pH 7 and ∼4.4 folds at pH 9). However, HHP treatment (600 MPa) only slightly increased the solubility (∼1.6 folds at pH 7 and ∼1.2 folds at pH 9) and decreased the particle size (∼1.3 folds at pH 7 and ∼1.2 folds at pH 9). This study provides a direct comparison of the impacts of sonication and HHP treatment on QPI, which will enable to choose the appropriate processing methods to achieve tailored properties of QPI.

Abstract
This study investigated the effect of ultrasound on gel properties of soy protein isolates (SPIs) at different salt concentrations. The results showed that ultrasound could significantly improve the gel hardness and the water holding capacity (WHC) of the salt-containing gel (p < 0.05). The gel presents a uniform and compact three-dimensional network structure. The combination of 200 mM NaCl with 20 min of ultrasound could significantly increase the gel hardness (four times) and the WHC (p < 0.05) compared with the SPI gel without treatment. With the increase in NaCl concentration, the ζ potential and surface hydrophobicity increased, and the solubility decreased. Ultrasound could improve the protein solubility, compensate for the loss of solubility caused by the addition of NaCl, and further increase the surface hydrophobicity. Ultrasound combined with NaCl allowed proteins to form aggregates of different sizes. In addition, the combined treatment increased the hydrophobic interactions and disulfide bond interactions in the gel. Overall, ultrasound could improve the thermal gel properties of SPI gels with salt addition.
