Abstract
BACKGROUND
This research was aimed at the fabrication of jujube extract (JE)-loaded beads by extrusion, using whey protein isolate (WPI), chickpea protein concentrate (PPC) and a combination of two types of hydrocolloid insoluble fraction of Persian gum (IFPG) and sodium alginate (Al).
RESULTS
JE-loaded beads with the highest encapsulation efficiency (10.87%) and polyphenol content (120.8 mg L-1 gallic acid) were obtained using Al-IFPG/PPC at 4 °C. The Al-IFPG, Al-IFPG/WPI and Al-IFPG/PPC beads revealed 5.66, 6.85 and 5.76 mm bead size, respectively, and almost all of them demonstrated a homogeneous and spherical structure. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy data proved that the stable structure of the Al-IFPG beads was due to hydrogen bonding and electrostatic interactions. The thermostability of beads loaded with JE based on Al-IFPG/WPI was significantly enhanced compared to pure Al-IFPG. Texture evaluation of JE-loaded beads based on Al-IFPG incorporation with WPI revealed an increment in the hardness of beads.
CONCLUSION
This study confirmed the potential of Al-IFPG complex beads for the effective delivery of jujube extract via incorporation into pea and whey proteins and for the expansion of its use in products. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.
