Physicochemical characterization and environmental stability of a curcumin-loaded Pickering nanoemulsion using a pea protein isolate-dextran conjugate via the Maillard reaction. Food Chem 2024; 436:137639. [PMID: 37890346 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2023.137639] [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: 05/30/2023] [Revised: 09/17/2023] [Accepted: 09/29/2023] [Indexed: 10/29/2023]
Abstract
This study investigated pea protein isolate (PPI) and dextran (DX) conjugates produced via the Maillard reaction as Pickering stabilizers for various food applications. The results found that as heating time increased (0-5 h), the grafting degree heightened. The PPI-DX conjugate exhibited a rough porous surface in contrast to native PPI, accompanied by changes in molecular weight and secondary structure. Additionally, the aggregation of low-solubility PPI was partially inhibited due to the contribution of increased solubility and reduced surface hydrophobicity by glycation. Curcumin-loaded Pickering nanoemulsions stabilized with PPI-DX had smaller droplets and higher curcumin encapsulation (greater than80 %) than PPI-stabilized nanoemulsions. PPI-DX adsorbed on the interface showed improved physical stability compared to PPI alone, even after various pH conditions and three heat treatments. The nanoemulsion stabilized with PPI-DX demonstrated improved apparent viscosity and dispersion stability. These findings highlight the effectiveness of PPI-DX conjugates as stabilizers for developing stable and functional Pickering nanoemulsions.

Influence of pre-treatment methods on quality indicators and mineral composition of plant milk from different sources of raw materials. JOURNAL OF THE SCIENCE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE 2024; 104:967-978.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pre-treatment of plant materials is essential in producing plant-based products and can affect their various organoleptic and physicochemical characteristics. This work aimed to study the effect of pre-treatment of vegetable raw materials, namely ultrasonic processing and freezing of raw materials under various low-temperature conditions, to obtain multiple types of vegetable milk and determine their characteristics. RESULTS It is shown that by applying a certain kind of pre-treatment of vegetable raw materials it is possible to adjust organoleptic parameters and the content of solids, protein, fat, carbohydrates, fiber and mineral composition of various types of vegetable milk from soy, rice, oats, wheat, peas, buckwheat, pumpkin seeds and lentils. Ultrasound pre-treatment allows increasing of polyphenol content by an average of 15-20% for all types of plant milk, except for lentil milk. The results showed that ultrasound treatment for 3 min had the most significant effect on the overall acceptability for lentils, pumpkin, rice and pea milk. Pre-freezing at a temperature regime of -17 and -85 °C contributed to an increase in Fe, K, Zn, Ca, Mg, Si and P by an average of 30-100%, depending on the plant material. CONCLUSION Pre-treatment of vegetable raw materials, including freezing and ultrasonic treatment, can positively affect the macro- and micronutrient composition of plant milk. However, the effect may vary depending on the type of raw material and processing conditions. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 255:128109.

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.

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
This study aimed to investigate the suitability of the application of high-intensity ultrasounds (HIUS) to improve the acid induced gelation of mixed protein systems formed by casein micelles (CMs) and pea. The protein suspensions were prepared in different protein ratios CMs: pea (100:0, 80:20, 50:50, 20:80, 0:100) at 8% (w/w) total protein concentration. In the suspensions, the ultrasound treatment produced an increase in solubility, surface hydrophobicity, and a decrease in the samples' viscosity, with more remarkable differences in protein blends in which pea protein was the major component. However, the replacement of 20% of CMs for pea proteins highly affected the gel elasticity. Hence, the creation of smaller and more hydrophobic building blocks before acidification due to the HIUS treatment increased the elasticity of the gels up to 10 times. Therefore, high-intensity ultrasounds are a suitable green technique to increase the gelling properties of CMs: pea systems.

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
Conventional solvent-based methods widely used for isolating plant proteins may deliver an unsatisfactory protein yield and/or result in protein degradation. The present study started with the optimization of pumpkin seed protein from press cake by alkaline extraction and subsequent isoelectric precipitation. Subsequently, extraction was supported by ultrasound under three conditions: ultrasonic treatment followed by alkaline extraction (US+AE), concomitant ultrasonic treatment and alkaline extraction (UAE), and alkaline extraction followed by ultrasonic treatment (AE+US). Compared to the control group, an increase in protein yield was achieved after ultrasonic treatment, while the highest protein yield was obtained with AE+US (57.8 ± 2.0%). Isolates with a protein content of 94.04 ± 0.77 g/100 g and a yield of 43.6 ± 0.97% were obtained under optimized conditions. Following ultrasonic treatment applied during extraction, solubility, foaming capacity, foam stability, and denaturation enthalpy of the isolated protein increased, and water binding capacity decreased as compared to non-sonicated samples. The d90 particle size percentile of the extracted suspensions was 376.68 ± 38.32 µm for the control experiments, and particle size was significantly reduced in ultrasound-assisted treatments down to d90 = 179.93 ± 13.24 µm for the AE+US treatment). Generally, ultrasonication resulted in a significant increase in protein yield and improved techno-functional properties of the isolates.

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
In order to expand the applications of plant protein in food formulations, enhancement of its functionalities is meaningful. Herein, the effects of ultrasonic (20 KHz, 400 W, 20 min)-assisted pH shift (pH 10 and 12) treatment on the structure, interfacial behaviors, as well as the emulsifying and foaming properties of perilla protein isolate (PPI) were investigated. Results showed that the solubility of PPI treated by ultrasonic-assisted pH shift (named UPPI-10/12) exceeded 90 %, which was at least 2 and 1.4 times that of untreated PPI and ultrasound-based PPI. Meanwhile, UPPI-10/12 possessed higher foamability (increasing by at least 1.2 times) and good emulsifying stability. Ultrasonic-assisted pH shift treatment decomposed large PPI aggregates into tiny particles, evident from the dynamic light scattering (DLS) and atomic force microscopy results. Besides, this approach induced a decrease in α-helix of PPI and an increase in β-sheet, which might result in the exposure of the hydrophobic group on the structural surface of PPI, thus leading to the increase of surface hydrophobicity. The smaller size and higher hydrophobicity endowed UPPI-10/12 faster adsorption rate, tighter interfacial structure, and higher elastic modulus at the air- and oil-water interfaces, evident from the cryo-SEM and interfacial dilatational rheological results. Thus, the emulsifying and foaming properties could evidently enhance. This study demonstrated that ultrasonic-assisted pH shift technique was a simple approach to effectively improve the functional performance of PPI.

Abstract
Cereals, as the main crops cultivated and consumed in the world, are a rich source of carbohydrates, proteins, dietary fiber, and minerals. Despite the nutritional importance, their technological applicability in food matrices is also considerably important to be determined. Cereal processing is done to achieve goals as increasing the shelf‐life, obtaining the desired technological function, and enhancing the nutritional value. Nonthermal processing is preferred regarding its potential to provide beneficial impacts with minimum adverse effect. Technological functionality and nutritional performance are considered as the most basic challenges through cereal processing, with proteins as the main factor to take part in such roles. Technological and nutritional functionalities of proteins have been found to be changed through nonthermal processing, which is generally attributed to conformational and structural changes. Therefore, this study is aimed to investigate the impact of nonthermal processing on nutritional and technological characteristics of cereal proteins.

Foods 2022; 11:foods11050771. [PMID: 35267403 PMCID: PMC8909454 DOI: 10.3390/foods11050771] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2022] [Revised: 02/24/2022] [Accepted: 03/03/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
To extract and utilise the protein in quinoa efficiently, we investigated the effect of rate of quinoa protein isolate (QPI) extraction by ultrasound-assisted alkaline extraction and traditional alkaline extraction methods using single-factor experiments and Box-Behnken design. The effect of different heat treatment temperature and time on QPI functional properties and in vitro digestion characteristics were also investigated. The results showed that the optimal conditions of ultrasound- assisted alkaline extraction process were: ultrasonic time 99 min, solid-liquid ratio 1:20 w:v, ultrasonic temperature 47 °C, and pH 10, and its extraction rate and purity were 74.67 ± 1.08% and 87.17 ± 0.58%, respectively. It was 10.18% and 5.49% higher than that of the alkali-soluble acid precipitation method, respectively. The isoelectric point (pI) of QPI obtained by this method was 4.5. The flexibility and turbidity of QPI had maximum values at 90 °C, 30 min, and 121 °C, 30 min, which were 0.42 and 0.94, respectively. In addition, heat treatment changed the 1.77–2.79 ppm protein characteristic region in QPI’s nuclear magnetic resonance hydrogen spectroscopy (1H NMR). After heating at 90 °C and 121 °C for 30 min, the hydrolysis degree and total amino acid content at the end of digestion (121 °C, 30 min) were significantly lower than those of untreated QPI by 20.64% and 27.85%. Our study provides basic data for the efficient extraction and utilisation of QPI.

Abstract
Protein from plant sources is claimed alternatives to animal sources in the human diet. Suitable protein sources need high protein digestibility and amino acid bioavailability. In terms of protein functionality and food applications, they also need high-quality attributes, such as solubility, gelling, water- and oil-holding capacities, emulsifying, and foaming. Thermal processing can improve the nutritional quality of plants with some disadvantages, like reducing the assimilation of micronutrients (vitamins and minerals). Emerging technologies-such as ultrasound, high-pressure, ohmic heating, microwave, pulsed electric field, cold plasma, and enzymatic processes-can overcome those disadvantages. Recent studies demonstrate their enormous potential to improve protein techno-functional properties, protein quality, and decrease protein allergenicity. However, the literature lacks a broader evaluation, including protein digestibility, industrial-scale optimization, and exploring applications to these alternative protein sources.

Abstract
Cereal grains are the main dietary source of energy, carbohydrates, and plant proteins world-wide. Currently, only 41% of grains are used for human consumption, and up to 35% are used for animal feed. Cereals have been overlooked as a source of environmentally sustainable and healthy plant proteins and could play a major role in transitioning towards a more sustainable food system for healthy diets. Cereal plant proteins are of good nutritional quality, but lysine is often the limiting amino acid. When consumed as whole grains, cereals provide health-protecting components such as dietary fiber and phytochemicals. Shifting grain use from feed to traditional foods and conceptually new foods and ingredients could improve protein security and alleviate climate change. Rapid development of new grain-based food ingredients and use of grains in new food contexts, such as dairy replacements and meat analogues, could accelerate the transition. This review discusses recent developments and outlines future perspectives for cereal grain use.

Abstract
In comparison to conventional encapsulation methods of phenolic compounds (PCs), pH-driven method is green, simple and requires low energy consumption. It has a huge potential for industrial applications, and can overcome more effectively the aqueous solubility, stability and bioavailability issues related to PCs by changing pH to induce the encapsulation of PCs. This review aims to shed light on the use of pH-driven method for encapsulating PCs. The preparation steps and principles governing pH-driven method using various carriers and delivery systems are provided. A comparison of pH-driven with other methods is also presented. To circumvent the drawbacks of pH-driven method, improvement strategies are proposed. The essence of pH-driven method relies simultaneously on alkalization and acidification to bind PCs and carriers. It is used for the development of nanoemulsions, liposomes, edible films, nanoparticles, nanogels and functional foods. As a result of pH-driven method, PCs-loaded carriers may have smaller size, high encapsulation efficiency, more sustained-release and good bioavailability, due mainly to effects of pH change on the structure and properties of PCs as well as carriers. Finally, modification of wall materials and type of acidifier are considered as efficient approaches to improve the pH-driven method.

Abstract
Protein calories consumed by people all over the world approximate 15-20% of their energy intake. This makes protein a major nutritional imperative. Today, we are facing an unprecedented challenge to produce and distribute adequate protein to feed over nine billion people by 2050, in an environmentally sustainable and affordable way. Plant-based proteins present a promising solution to our nutritional needs due to their long history of crop use and cultivation, lower cost of production, and easy access in many parts of the world. However, plant proteins have comparatively poor functionality, defined as poor solubility, foaming, emulsifying, and gelling properties, limiting their use in food products. Relative to animal proteins, including dairy products, plant protein technology is still in its infancy. To bridge this gap, advances in plant protein ingredient development and the knowledge to construct plant-based foods are sorely needed. This review focuses on some salient features in the science and technology of plant proteins, providing the current state of the art and highlighting new research directions. It focuses on how manipulating plant protein structures during protein extraction, fractionation, and modification can considerably enhance protein functionality. To create novel plant-based foods, important considerations such as protein-polysaccharide interactions, the inclusion of plant protein-generated flavors, and some novel techniques to structure plant proteins are discussed. Finally, the attention to nutrition as a compass to navigate the plant protein roadmap is also considered.

Effect of ultrasound-assisted alkaline treatment on functional property modifications of faba bean protein. Food Chem 2021; 354:129494.

Abstract
This study investigated alkaline shifting, ultrasonication, and their combination on functional modifications of faba bean protein isolate (FPI). The protein characterization revealed that the combined alkaline shifting/ultrasound treatment dissociated large aggregates of FPI into small ones, resulting in increased protein surface hydrophobicity and decreased free sulfhydryl groups. Such structural changes significantly increased FPI solubility from 12.2 to 40.4% to more than 95% at pH 3 and 7 and more than 80% at pH 6. Furthermore, the FPI modified by the combined alkaline shifting/ultrasound treatment produced emulsions with smaller particle size and superior stability at pH values 3 and 7. Likewise, a striking enhancement in foaming capacity (from 93% to 306-386%) and stability (from 10 s to 473-974 s) was achieved by the combined treatment. This study suggested that the ultrasound-assisted alkaline shifting treatment could be considered an effective method for improving FPI functional properties.

Abstract
Ultrasonic (US) treatment was combined with pH shifting (pHS) and mild thermal (40 °C) (T40) treatment (US/T40/pHS) to improve the solubility of potato protein. The effects of the ultrasonication frequency, ultrasonication time, and incorporation sequence on the solubility of potato protein were investigated. The results showed that online US/T40/pHS treatment resulted in higher solubility of potato protein and enhanced free amino group release during in vitro digestion. The solubility of potato protein treated with online US/T40/pHS at a mono-frequency of 40 kHz for 15 min increased by 1.73 times compared with the control (p < 0.05). The digestibility rate increased by 16.0% and 30.8% during gastric and intestinal digestion, respectively, compared with the control (p < 0.05). It was demonstrated that online US/T40/pHS treatment significantly changed the secondary and tertiary structures of potato protein according to the results of circular dichroism and internal fluorescence. SDS-PAGE, particle size, and atomic force microscopy (AFM) showed that structural changes led to the formation of large soluble aggregates. The results suggested that the improvement in the solubility and digestibility of potato protein treated with online US/T40/pHS may be due to the formation of large soluble aggregates, which are more hydrophilic and sensitive to digestive enzymes.
