Abstract
Gum arabic finds extensive application and typically undergoes sterilization prior to utilization in the food industry. This study explored the impact of steam sterilization temperature and duration on the physicochemical and emulsification characteristics of gum arabic, accompanied by proposed mechanisms elucidating observed effects. The results showed that when gum arabic was treated with high temperature sterilization (110 °C ∼ 140 °C), the emulsion prepared turned unstable. The interfacial tension decreased from 8.26 mN/m to 6.77 mN/m after sterilization, while the elastic modulus decreased from 23.65 mN/m to 16.16 mN/m. Moreover, the circular dichroic chromatographic results indicated that the arabinogalactan protein (AGP) structure of gum arabic was more relaxed after high temperature treatment with β-sheets content decreased from 36.2 % to 29.8 % and random coil content increased from 41.3 % to 51.8 %. Quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM-D) results demonstrated that emulsion surface film thickness and toughness decreased after sterilization treatment of gum arabic. The study indicates that high temperature sterilization may change protein structure in gum arabic and reduce the stability of prepared emulsions.

[PMID: 38340505 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.138565] [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: 08/26/2023] [Revised: 01/15/2024] [Accepted: 01/22/2024] [Indexed: 02/12/2024]
Abstract
Although αs1-casein poses significant health risks to individuals with milk allergies, the availability of quantification methods for this allergen remains limited. In this study, we developed an immunomagnetic beads-based immunoassay (IMBs-ELISA) for the precise quantitative detection of bovine αs1-CN, specifically targeting epitope AA173-194. No cross-reactivity was observed with the other 7 food allergens including milk allergen. The linear detection range of the established IMBs-ELISA method was 0.125 μg/mL-2.000 μg/mL, with a limit of detection of 0.099 μg/mL. The accuracy of this method was 1.048 %, and the intra-plate and inter-plate precision achieved 4.100 % and 6.777 %, respectively. Notably, the entire IMBs-ELISA process could be completed within 75 min, representing a substantial time-saving advantage over traditional ELISA methods. These results proved the reliability and rapidity of the IMBs-ELISA method for detecting αs1-CN in real food.

Abstract
The poor thermal stability and emulsifying properties of ovalbumin (OVA) limit its functional performance, but these limitations may be overcome by forming binary complexes. We prepared binary complexes of OVA and fucoidan (FUC) through electrostatic self-assembly and investigated the emulsifying properties of the complex by measuring the particle size, interfacial membrane thickness, zeta potential, and stability of the emulsion prepared with camellia oil and the complex. The OVA-FUC emulsions have a thicker interfacial membrane, lower mobility, higher viscosity, and better stability compared with the OVA emulsions. The emulsion prepared with 1.5 % OVA-FUC remained stable and homogeneous during storage. They tended to become unstable with freeze-thaw, but the oil encapsulated did not leak after coalescence occurred. With the addition of Ca2+, the OVA-FUC emulsion will be converted into a gel state. These findings indicate that OVA-FUC binary complexes can be used to prepare high-performance emulsions with great potential for development.

Food Chem 2024; 442:138326. [PMID: 38219563 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2023.138326] [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: 10/10/2023] [Revised: 12/14/2023] [Accepted: 12/27/2023] [Indexed: 01/16/2024]
Abstract
The residual dextran impurities in the upstream process significantly impact the crystallization of starch-based functional sugar and the related food properties. This study intends to reveal the mechanism of dextran's influence on trehalose crystallization, and build a relationship among the dextran in syrup and the physicochemical and functional properties of trehalose. Instead of incorporating into the crystal lattice, dextran changes the assembly rate of trehalose molecules on crystal surface. The different sensitivity and adsorption capacity of the crystal surface to the chain length of dextran determines the growth rate of crystal surfaces, resulting in different crystal morphology. The bulk trehalose crystals, which were obtained from syrups with short chain dextran, have excellent powder properties, including best flowability (35◦), highest crystal strength (2.7 N), lowest caking rate (62.22 %), and the most uniform mixing with other sweeteners (sucrose/xylitol) in food formulations, achieving more stable starch preservation.

Abstract
Zein is the main vegetable protein from maize. In recent years, Zein has been widely used in pharmaceutical, agriculture, food, environmental protection, and other fields because it has excellent biocompatibility and biosafety. However, there is still a lack of systematic review and research on Zein-based nano-delivery systems. This paper systematically reviews preparation and modification methods of Zein-based nano-delivery systems, based on the basic properties of Zein. It discusses the preparation of Zein nanoparticles and the influencing factors in detail, as well as analyzing the advantages and disadvantages of different preparation methods and summarizing modification methods of Zein nanoparticles. This study provides a new idea for the research of Zein-based nano-delivery system and promotes its application.

Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 235:123887.

Abstract
The effect of sodium alginate (SA) on the yogurt stability and the related mechanisms were investigated. It was found that low-concentration SA (≤0.2 %) increased the yogurt stability, while high-concentration SA (≥0.3 %) decreased the yogurt stability. Sodium alginate increased the viscosity and viscoelasticity of yogurt and this effect was positively correlated with its concentration, suggesting that SA worked as the thickening agent in yogurt. However, addition of ≥0.3 % SA damaged the yogurt gel. These results suggested that interaction between milk protein and SA might play an important role in the yogurt stability besides the thickening effect. Addition of ≤0.2 % SA did not change the particle size of casein micelles. However, addition of ≥0.3 % SA induced aggregation of casein micelles and increased the size. And the aggregated casein micelles precipitated after 3 h storage. Isothermal titration calorimetry analysis showed that casein micelles and SA were thermodynamically incompatible. These results suggested that the interaction between casein micelles and SA induced aggregation and precipitation of casein micelles, which was critical in the destabilization of yogurt. In conclusion, the effect of SA on the yogurt stability was dependent on the thickening effect and the interaction between casein micelles and SA.
