Effect of baking on the structure and bioavailability of protein-binding zinc from oyster (Crassoetrea hongkongensis). Food Chem 2024; 451:139471. [PMID: 38692241 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.139471] [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: 01/25/2024] [Revised: 03/20/2024] [Accepted: 04/22/2024] [Indexed: 05/03/2024]
Abstract
To compare the bioavailability of protein-binding zinc, we investigated the impact of baking on the structure of zinc-binding proteins. The results showed that zinc-binding proteins enriched in zinc with relative molecular weights distributed at 6 kDa and 3 kDa. Protein-binding zinc is predisposed to separate from proteins' interiors and converge on proteins' surface after being baked, and its structure tends to be crystalline. Especially -COO, -C-O, and -C-N played vital roles in the sites of zinc-binding proteins. However, baking did not affect protein-binding zinc's bioavailability which was superior to that of ZnSO4 and C12H22O14Zn. They were digested in the intestine, zinc-binding complexes that were easily transported and uptaken by Caco-2 cells, with transport and uptake rates as high as 62.15% and 15.85%. Consequently, baking can alter the conformation of zinc-binding proteins without any impact on protein-binding zinc's bioavailability which is superior to that of ZnSO4 and C12H22O14Zn.

Relationship between microstructure formation and in vitro starch digestibility in baked gluten-starch matrices. Food Chem X 2024; 22:101347. [PMID: 38623503 PMCID: PMC11016870 DOI: 10.1016/j.fochx.2024.101347] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2024] [Revised: 03/18/2024] [Accepted: 03/31/2024] [Indexed: 04/17/2024] Open
Abstract
Increased prevalence of diabetes prompts the development of foods with reduced starch digestibility. This study analyzed the impact of adding soluble dietary fiber (inulin-IN; polydextrose-PD) to baked gluten-starch matrices (7.5-13%) on microstructure formation and in vitro starch digestibility. IN and PD enhanced water-holding capacity, the hardness of baked matrices, and lowered water activity in the formulated matrices, potentially explaining the reduced starch gelatinization degree as IN or PD concentration increased. A maximum gelatinization decrease (26%) occurred in formulations with 13% IN. Micro-CT analysis showed a reduction in total and open porosity, which, along with the lower gelatinization degree, may account for the reduced in vitro starch digestibility. Samples with 13% IN exhibited a significantly lower rapidly available glucose fraction (8.56 g/100 g) and higher unavailable glucose fraction (87.76 g/100 g) compared to the control (34.85 g/100 g and 47.59 g/100 g, respectively). These findings suggest the potential for developing healthier, starch-rich baked foods with a reduced glycemic impact.

Effects of food processing on in vitro glucose release of high methylester pectin-enriched doughs. Food Chem 2024; 442:138331. [PMID: 38271902 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2023.138331] [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: 06/07/2023] [Revised: 12/18/2023] [Accepted: 12/27/2023] [Indexed: 01/27/2024]
Abstract
The incidence of type 2 diabetes is linked to consuming processed, high-glycemic foods low in dietary fiber. Soluble dietary fibers are known to improve blood glucose tolerance. This study examined the impact of processing on the in vitro glucose release of fiber-rich, high-glycemic foods. The impact of composition and microstructure on in vitro glucose release and starch digestibility was evaluated in doughs - untreated, baked at 180 °C, and extruded at 150 °C and 180 °C - with partial enrichment of high-methylester pectin. Pectin enrichment decreased starch digestibility, altered the food matrix, and doubled in vitro chyme-viscosity resulting in reduced glucose release in baked (180 °C), and extruded (150 °C) products. Baking or extrusion cooking increased starch digestibility - converting slowly into rapidly available starch and free glucose. Additionally, resistant starch levels were enhanced by up to fivefold. The variations in glucose release originated from a complex interplay between starch digestibility, viscosity, and the food matrix.

Influence of baking conditions and formulation on furanic derivatives, 3-methylbutanal and hexanal and other quality characteristics of lab-made and commercial biscuits. Food Chem 2024; 437:137791. [PMID: 37883857 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2023.137791] [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: 04/20/2023] [Revised: 10/06/2023] [Accepted: 10/16/2023] [Indexed: 10/28/2023]
Abstract
Biscuit baking can cause the formation of heat-related toxic compounds, mainly through the Maillard reaction, including some volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that are potentially carcinogenic to humans. This study investigates the effects of different baking conditions and recipes on quality characteristics (moisture, water activity, colour, texture) and on the concentration of some VOCs (furfural, furfuryl acetate, 5-methylfurfural, furfuryl alcohol, 3-methylbutanal, hexanal) in biscuits. Specifically, lab-made biscuits baked under static and ventilated conditions and three commercial biscuit types categorised as shortbreads with eggs, with chocolate chips and dry petits were evaluated. Concerning the lab-made biscuits, the ventilated mode resulted in faster baking and a slightly lower concentration of investigated VOCs compared to the static mode. Besides the process conditions, the recipe also played a role in the final quality and target volatiles, whose concentrations were lower in dry petits than in shortbreads, which are characterised by higher sugar and fat contents.

Processing parameters in breadmaking and bioaccessibility of acrylamide and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural. Food Res Int 2023; 174:113523. [PMID: 37986512 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2023.113523] [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: 07/11/2023] [Revised: 09/25/2023] [Accepted: 09/26/2023] [Indexed: 11/22/2023]
Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the fate in digestive steps, bioaccessibility and diffusion of acrylamide (AA) and 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF) in bread samples produced under different processing parameters. AA and 5-HMF were determined in every sample ready-to-eat, after every digestion step and in the digested after crossing the dialysis membrane. The contaminants were extracted by QuEChERS method and determined by HPLC-PDA. Doubling fermentation time (from 60 to 120 min) increased the level of AA by 1.2-fold, and it decreased the level of 5-HMF by 1.4-fold. A combination of 60 min fermentation and 20 min baking led to the lowest levels of AA (1.71 mg/kg) and 5-HMF (0.50 mg/kg). There was no increase in AA level in the gastric stage however, the 5-HMF level increased. Both contaminant levels had increased in the intestinal stage. This fact showed that the determination of the contaminants in the ready-to-eat product did not reflect their actual bioaccessibility because the digestive enzymes and pH variation may affect the release and detection of AA and 5-HMF accumulated in the baking stage. The initial levels of 5-HMF were correlated to the baking time, and initial levels of AA were correlated to the fermentation time. From the bioaccessible levels of AA and 5-HMF, approximately 90 % (5 mg/kg) and 100 % (6.5 mg/kg) crossed the dialysis membrane respectively. Initial and bioaccessible levels of AA were above the security recommendations for bread (50 µg/kg), which is a concern considering the daily consumption of this food. This study showed that focusing on a combination of processing parameters could be a promising strategy to decrease the bioaccessibility of both contaminants in bread.

Structural formation during bread baking in a combined microwave-convective oven determined by sub-second in-situ synchrotron X-ray microtomography. Food Res Int 2023; 173:113283. [PMID: 37803595 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2023.113283] [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: 03/29/2023] [Revised: 07/12/2023] [Accepted: 07/13/2023] [Indexed: 10/08/2023]
Abstract
A new concept has been developed for characterizing the real-time evolution of the three-dimensional pore and lamella microstructure of bread during baking using synchrotron X-ray microtomography (SRµCT). A commercial, combined microwave-convective oven was modified and installed at the TOMCAT synchrotron tomography beamline at the Swiss Light Source (SLS), to capture the 3D dough-to-bread structural development in-situ at the micrometer scale with an acquisition time of 400 ms. This allowed characterization and quantitative comparison of three baking technologies: (1) convective heating, (2) microwave heating, and (3) a combination of convective and microwave heating. A workflow for automatic batchwise image processing and analysis of 3D bread structures (1530 analyzed volumes in total) was established for porosity, individual pore volume, elongation, coordination number and local wall thickness, which allowed for evaluation of the impact of baking technology on the bread structure evolution. The results showed that the porosity, mean pore volume and mean coordination number increase with time and that the mean local cell wall thickness decreases with time. Small and more isolated pores are connecting with larger and already more connected pores as function of time. Clear dependencies are established during the whole baking process between the mean pore volume and porosity, and between the mean local wall thickness and the mean coordination number. This technique opens new opportunities for understanding the mechanisms governing the structural changes during baking and discern the parameters controlling the final bread quality.

Effect of extrusion process on the obtention of a flour from coffee pulp Coffea arabica variety red Caturra and its use in bakery products. JOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY 2023; 60:2792-2801. [PMID: 37711565 PMCID: PMC10497479 DOI: 10.1007/s13197-023-05797-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Revised: 05/08/2023] [Accepted: 06/01/2023] [Indexed: 09/16/2023]
Abstract
The main waste in the coffee industry is the coffee pulp (CP), an interesting source of fiber and phenolic compounds. An alternative for its harnessing can be its transformation into a flour for human consumption, generating added value for a circular economy. The aim of this study was to obtain flour from CP (CPF) using extrusion and the evaluation of its incorporation into a bakery product. Extrusion treatments to get a flour were explored by a factorial design 23, considering the temperature, moisture, and extruder screw revolutions (rpm). Treatments were evaluated for their effects on the proximal composition, phytic acid, caffeine, and phenolic compounds contents of the flours, and baking characteristics such as water absorption (WAI) and water solubility index (WSI). Once the best extrusion treatment was selected, bread formulations were developed, two wheat-based and two gluten-free, which were evaluated using "Flash Profiling". Extrusion treatment 110 °C, 35% moisture, and 17.5 rpm, was selected as the best one to get a flour with good functional properties (WAI:2.94 ± 0.13, WSI:21.02 ± 3.27) and a content of phenolic compounds: 55.14 mg/g and caffeine:14.23 mg/g. Sensorially, good acceptance, up to 15% substitution by flour, was achieved. Extruded CPF could be a food ingredient, at least in bakery products, contributing in the practice of a circular economy.

Relevance of Zearalenone and its modified forms in bakery products. Mycotoxin Res 2023:10.1007/s12550-023-00493-3.

Abstract
Zearalenone is a frequently occurring and well-known mycotoxin developed in cereals before and during the harvest period by Fusarium spp. mainly in maize and wheat. In addition to the main form, various modified forms (phase I and II metabolites) were detected, in some cases in high amounts. These modified forms can be harmful for human health due to their different toxicity, which can be much higher compared to the parent toxin. In addition, the parent toxin can be cleaved from the phase I and II metabolites during digestion. A risk of correlated and additive adverse effects of the metabolites of ZEN phase I and II in humans and animals is evident. ZEN is considered in many studies on its occurrence in grain-based foods and some studies are dedicated to the behavior of ZEN during food processing. This is not the case for the ZEN phase I and II metabolites, which are only included in a few occurrence reports. Their effects during food processing is also only sporadically addressed in studies to date. In addition to the massive lack of data on the occurrence and behavior of ZEN modified forms, there is also a lack of comprehensive clarification of the toxicity of the numerous different ZEN metabolites detected to date. Finally, studies on the fate during digestion of the relevant ZEN metabolites will be important in the future to further clarify their relevance in processed foods such as bakery products.

Effect of salts on the formation of acrylamide, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural and flavour compounds in a crust-like glucose/wheat flour dough system during heating. Food Chem 2023; 410:135358.

Abstract
Among many strategies known to mitigate acrylamide formation, addition of cations, particularly calcium, is effective and can be used in bakery products. In this study, the effects of NaCl, KCl, CaCl2, MgCl2, sodium lactate, calcium lactate, and magnesium lactate on aroma and acrylamide formation were investigated in glucose/wheat flour dough systems during heating. Addition of salts inhibited Maillard reaction in favour of caramelisation, with divalent cations found to be most effective. The impact of salts on acrylamide reduction became less effective with increasing temperature. Most Strecker aldehydes and pyrazines decreased in the presence of salts, however CaCl2 and calcium lactate increased the concentration of furans, furfurals, and diketones. Calcium lactate also increased some ethyl-substituted pyrazines at high temperatures. Reduction of acrylamide with salts is associated with higher amounts of furan derivatives and decreased amounts of Strecker aldehydes and pyrazines. The mechanisms behind these changes are discussed.

High and low temperature processing: Effective tool reducing pesticides in/on apple used in a risk assessment of dietary intake protocol. CHEMOSPHERE 2023; 313:137498. [PMID: 36495984 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2022.137498] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/30/2022] [Revised: 12/02/2022] [Accepted: 12/05/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
Apples play an important role in everyone's diet and may contain pesticide residues that can pose a significant health problem for consumers. Various technological processes are promising methods for minimizing pesticide concentrations in fruit. Therefore, the subject of this comprehensive study was to investigate the effects of high-temperature (baking) and low-temperature (freeze-drying) processes on the change in the levels of nine fungicides in apples with skin and peeled. The investigated compounds belong to the chemical groups of benzimidazole (thiophanate methyl and carbendazim), phtalimide (captan and their metabolite tetrahydrophtalimid (THPI)), strobilurin (pyraclostrobin, trifloxystrobin) and triazole (difenoconazole, tebuconazole, tetraconazole). Processing factors (PF) were calculated for each pesticide-process-product combination. The results show that baking and freeze-drying generally reduced pesticide concentrations, with PFs ranging from 0.31 to 0.81 and 0.26 to 0.68, respectively. Apart from freeze-drying for carbendazim and baking for captan, PFs were above 1. Only for thiophanate-methyl, a complete reduction was observed, which resulted from complete degradation to carbendazim. The study also aimed to assess human risk according to the new strategy for different sub-populations with conversion using the 36 PFs obtained. The highest acute exposure (expressed as %ARfD) was obtained for tebuconazole in raw apples (initial concentration of 1.42 mg/kg; 400% ARfD) for Dutch toddlers. After food processing, this decreased to 284% (0.74 mg/kg, baking) and to 137% (0.37 mg/kg, freeze-drying), but was still above the safety limit. Similarly, for adults and the general French population for tebuconazole, the %ARfD was high as it reached the values of 104% (initial concentration of 0.89 mg/kg) in unprocessed apples, 73.9% after baking (0.73 mg/kg) and 35.6% after freeze-drying (0.35 mg/kg). The results indicate that food processing techniques can potentially be used to minimize the hazardous effects of pesticide residues on human health.

Abstract
Producing quality products in baking industry has been facing several challenges including meeting the needs of the growing population, lack of sufficient water resources for producing enough wheat, lack of quality products made from wheat flour and high amount of waste. Recently, the quality of baking products has been improved by mixing different types of flour, which increases the nutritional value and improves the quality of the final product. This study evaluates the possibility of making a cake by incorporating wheat flour with quinoa and okra flour. Moreover, basil gum is used to improve the gluten network. The cake samples were prepared with quinoa flour at two levels (15 and 30%), okra flour at two levels (0.8 and 0.16%) and basil gum at a level of 0.4%; finally, their physicochemical, rheological, SEM, and sensory properties were evaluated. Based on the results, adding quinoa and okra flour and basil gum increases the density and consistency of the batter. Hardness, springiness, chewiness, cohesiveness, and adhesiveness of the blend Q2B1R was improved. The granule structure of the quinoa flour cakes were affected, and the gluten network was not well formed as shown in the electron microscopy images. However, the gluten network was improved in the samples with 0.4% basil gum and 0.8% okra flour. By adding okra and quinoa, better specific volume, porosity, and moisture content was obtained. Sensory evaluation of the cakes indicated that the blend Q2B1R was scored close to the control sample.

Abstract
Polymer transitions occurring during the thermal processing of dough are defining the rheological behaviour of solidifying dough. Yeast, an essential ingredient in breadmaking, plays an important role in this transformation process, but its impact on the transitional behavior of the polymers remains unknown. Therefore, the aim of this study was to elucidate the impact of hydrothermally induced polymer transitions on the elongational rheological behavior of dough under process-relevant strain-strain-rate combinations transitions in dependence of the presence of yeast. Using elongational rheology together with DSC, TD-NMR and microscopy, yeast-induced degradation on the microstructural level (average decrease of protein strand length of 46%) and microstructural level were shown to affect the course of the starch gelatinization process and the functionality of gluten while baking. These findings can be used to relate oven rise performance to fundamental rheological behavior based on occurring phase transitions, leading to a more comprehensive process understanding.

Nutritional composition and sensory Properties of wheat muffins enriched with Gonimbrasia zambesina, walker caterpillar flour. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF TROPICAL INSECT SCIENCE 2022; 42:3097-3105.

Abstract
Sub-Saharan Africa still bears the greatest forms of malnutrition. Attention is shifting to the use of edible insects in forms which are acceptable to people irrespective of their social status and level of civilization in efforts to alleviate protein malnutrition. Gonimbrasia zambesina (Lepidoptera: Saturniidae) caterpillars emerge seasonally in the coastal part of Kenya and despite their rich nutritional profile, their consumption is low. This study was thus undertaken to evaluate the effect of substituting wheat flour with G. zambesina caterpillar flour at 0%, 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% substitution levels on the nutritional composition and sensory properties of wheat muffins. Substituting wheat flour with G. zambesina caterpillar flour resulted in significantly high protein, fat and fibre contents of enriched wheat muffins. There was also an increasing trend in the ash, minerals and tocopherol content. Invitro protein digestibility significantly decreased from 10 to 20% substitution levels. There was a significant difference (p < 0.05) in the carbohydrate contents of enriched wheat muffins. The sensory scores for colour, texture, aroma and the overall acceptability of wheat muffins decreased with increasing substitution levels. At 10% substitution level, wheat muffins had significantly higher nutritional content than control wheat muffins (0%) and were comparable to muffins enriched with 5% G. zambesina caterpillar flour in terms of overall acceptability. Thus, enriching wheat muffins with G. zambesina caterpillar flour at 10% substitution level has the potential to contribute to improved protein nutrition since they have a higher protein content than the control wheat muffin and are 88.8% digestible (in vitro).

Abstract
The detection of allergenic proteins and the influence of processing on the structure and antigenicity of these proteins are relevant topics. Using commercial enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kits, this study aimed to evaluate the degradation profiles of milk, egg and soy proteins during the processing of semisweet biscuits. The formulations were baked under different conditions according to a complete factorial experiment that included a three-level temperature factor and a six-level time factor. β-lactoglobulin and egg white proteins were severely degraded, the degradation of casein was intermediate, and soy proteins were the most stable. Complete allergen protein degradation was found under only the extreme baking conditions, which resulted in products that were not sensorily acceptable. Residual levels of the proteins were detected after baking, indicating that this thermal processing reduced but did not eliminate the antigenicity of these proteins; thus, baking cannot be considered a strategy to protect allergic consumers.

Abstract
L-asparaginase catalyzes the hydrolysis of L-asparagine to L-aspartic acid and ammonia. It has application in the treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia in children, as well as in other malignancies, in addition to its role as a food processing aid for the mitigation of acrylamide formation in the baking industry. Its use in cancer chemotherapy is limited due to problems such as its intrinsic glutaminase activity and associated side effects, leading to an increased interest in the search for novel L-asparaginases without L-glutaminase activity. This study reports the cloning and expression of an L-asparaginase contig obtained from whole metagenome shotgun sequencing of Sardinella longiceps gut microbiota. Purified recombinant glutaminase-free L-asparaginase SlpA was a 74 kDa homodimer, with maximal activity at pH 8 and 30 °C. Km and Vmax of SlpA were determined to be 3.008 mM and 0.014 mM/min, respectively. SlpA displayed cytotoxic activity against K-562 (chronic myeloid leukemia) and MCF-7 (breast cancer) cell lines with IC50 values of 0.3443 and 2.692 U/mL, respectively. SlpA did not show any cytotoxic activity against normal lymphocytes and was proved to be hemocompatible. Pre-treatment of biscuit and bread dough with different concentrations of SlpA resulted in a clear, dose-dependent reduction of acrylamide formation during baking. KEY POINTS: • Cloned and expressed L-asparaginase (SlpA) from fish gut microbiota • Purified SlpA displayed good cytotoxicity against K-562 and MCF-7 cell lines • SlpA addition caused a significant reduction of acrylamide formation during baking.

From flours to cakes: Reactivity potential of pulse ingredients to generate volatile compounds impacting the quality of processed foods. Food Chem 2022; 371:131379.

Abstract
This study investigated the impact of substituting wheat with pulse flours (lentil, chickpea, lupin, green and yellow pea) on reactivity during different steps of sponge cake development. Pulses exhibited a greater ability to generate volatiles with probable odor activity. Batter beating initiated lipid oxidation which depended on lipoxygenase activity and the fatty acid profile of the flours. Among the pulses, pea batters were richest in oxidation markers whereas lupin was least reactive, probably due to thermal pre-treatment. Baking triggered caramelization and Maillard reactions, notably with the pulse products which were particularly enriched in pyrazines and furanic compounds. Principle component analysis revealed that pea cakes were associated with oxidation markers that typically possess green-beany flavors, while Maillard markers known to impart nutty, roasted notes were assigned to lentil and chickpea cakes. These findings highlight the importance of ingredient type and its pre-processing in the development of quality-related markers for gluten-free products.

New insights into the influences of baking and storage on the nonvolatile compounds in oolong tea: A nontargeted and targeted metabolomics study. Food Chem 2021; 375:131872. [PMID: 34953237 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2021.131872] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2021] [Revised: 12/08/2021] [Accepted: 12/13/2021] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
A nontargeted and targeted metabolomics method was applied to comprehensively investigate the influences of baking and storage on chemical constituents in fresh-, strong-, and aged-scent types of Foshou oolong teas. The contents of N-ethyl-2-pyrrolidone-substituted flavanols (EPSFs), flavone C-glycosides, gallic acid, and most lipids increased after baking and storage, while the contents of cis-flavanols, alkaloids, flavonol O-glycosides, and most amino acids decreased. Degradation, epimerization, and interaction with theanine were main pathways for the decrease in cis-flavanols. Approximately 20.7%, 12.8%, and 11.6% of epigallocatechin gallate were degraded, epimerized, and interacted with theanine after baking, respectively; 22.5% and 8.71% of epigallocatechin gallate were degraded and interacted with theanine after 10-year storage, respectively. Simulated reactions confirmed that the increases in EPSFs and apigenin C-glycosides were caused by interactions between theanine and flavanols and between apigenin aglycone and glucose, respectively. This study offers novel insights into chemical changes during baking and storage of oolong tea.

Microwave vacuum-dried durian flour and its application in biscuits. Heliyon 2021; 7:e08292. [PMID: 34778582 PMCID: PMC8577084 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2021.e08292] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/18/2021] [Revised: 09/07/2021] [Accepted: 10/27/2021] [Indexed: 11/01/2022] Open
Abstract
Durian is one of most popular fruits due to its nutritional values and unique flavor. Durian products have been continuously developed to meet market needs. In this study, durian (Durio zibethinus Murr.) cv. 'Monthong' was subjected to microwave vacuum-drying at 1,200 W to produce durian flour for use in biscuits that are normally made from wheat flour. The microwave treatment induced starch gelatinization to a significant extent. As a result, compared to the wheat flour, the durian flour had lower viscosity, pasting temperature, gelatinization temperatures, and enthalpy of gelatinization but higher water absorption capacity. Dough properties including development time, dough stability, time to breakdown and the phase angle tangent of the durian dough were less than those of the wheat dough. The elastic modulus (G') and viscous modulus (G″) of the durian dough were higher than for the wheat dough. All the tested durian doughs had higher G' values than G″, indicating a viscoelastic structure. Substitution of wheat flour with durian flour should not exceed 50% to obtain reasonable dough properties and baking quality of durian biscuits.

Abstract
Bakery foods, including breads, cakes, cookies, muffins, rolls, buns, crumpets, pancakes, doughnuts, waffles, and bagels, etc., have been an important diet of humans for thousands of years. As the nutraceuticals with various biological activities, polyphenols, especially polyphenol-enriched products are widely used in bakery foods. The polyphenol-enriched products are mainly from fruits and vegetables, including fruits in whole, juice, puree, jam, and the powder of dried fruits, pomace, and peels. Incorporation of these products not only provide polyphenols, but also supply other nutrients, especially dietary fibers for bakery products. This chapter discussed the thermal stability of different types of polyphenols during baking, and the effect of polyphenols on the sensory attributes of baked foods. Moreover, their role in mitigation of reactive carbonyl species and the subsequent formation of advanced glycation end products, antioxidant and antimicrobial activities have been also discussed. Since polyphenols are subjected to high temperature for dozens of minutes during baking, future works need to focus on the chemical interactions of polyphenols and their oxidized products (quinones) with other food components, and the safety consequence of these interactions.

Abstract
Chapatti is a flattened circular flatbread also known as roti, poli, safari, and phulka, usually baked on a hot iron griddle. It is a staple diet of India and hence the quality of chapatti plays a major role in its acceptance. The overall quality of chapatti is dependent on various attributes such as pliability, handfeel, chapatti eating quality, and taste. These attributes are influenced by numerous factors, including wheat genotypes, wheat varieties, the molecular weight distribution of proteins, and processing techniques. This staple food has been extensively studied for various aspects, including processing, mechanism, fractionation, and reconstitution, quality improver, shelf life extension and also the mechanization of processing. This review focus on all the above-mentioned aspects and innovations carried out in this area.

Bioaccessibility of vitamin B12 synthesized by Propionibacterium freudenreichii and from products made with fermented wheat bran extract. Curr Res Food Sci 2021; 4:499-502. [PMID: 34382008 PMCID: PMC8340120 DOI: 10.1016/j.crfs.2021.07.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/07/2021] [Revised: 07/23/2021] [Accepted: 07/23/2021] [Indexed: 12/29/2022] Open
Abstract
The bioaccessibility of vitamin B12 (B12) in plant-based products fortified using wheat bran extract fermented with B12-producing food-grade Propionibacterium freudenreichii was studied by applying a standard static in vitro model. At first, a culture of P. freudenreichii, fresh or heat-treated, was subjected to in vitro assays. Then, food ingredients or products were evaluated for their in vitro bioaccessibility: spray-dried wheat bran extract powder, pasta made with an extruder using fermented bran extract and breads made with spray-dried powder or with added cyanocobalamin. B12 bioaccessibility from the fresh P. freudenreichii culture was only ca. 53%, which, when heated, increased to 73%. The bioaccessibility of B12 from the food products varied from 75% (spray-dried powder) to 95% (breads). B12 from the fortified bread was as bioaccessible as from the bread made with added cyanocobalamin (99%). The in vitro results suggest that B12 synthesized by P. freudenreichii, when fortified in the studied cereal-based products, is largely bioaccessible and could be available for absorption. Plant-based products fortified using fermentation with P. freudenreichii could thus be considered excellent sources of bioaccessible B12.

Abstract
Monochloropropanediol (MCPD) esters and glycidyl esters (GE) are the process contaminants found in frying and baking, except the refining process. The free form MCPD and glycidol are released from their parent esters via lipase hydrolysis while they are carcinogen and genotoxic carcinogen, respectively. MCPD esters and GE are formed endogenously during vegetable oil refining process. Then, their concentration were experimented during subsequent food processing methods, especially frying and baking. This review discussed the occurrence of 2-, 3-MCPD esters and GE during frying and baking processes. Process temperature, process duration, presence of precursors, and their combined effects are highly related to MCPD esters and GE formations. An elevated temperature and processing time can increase the formation of these contaminants until an optimum rate and then followed by the decomposition. Also, other factors such as the presence of chloride ions, moisture, and partial acylglycerol can further facilitate MCPD esters and/or GE formation. Frying and baking trigger formation of MCPD esters and GE. MCPD esters and GE are formed endogenously during refining process. The concentration of MCPD esters and GE elevated during thermal processing. Temperature, process duration, and precursors cause MCPD esters and GE formations.

Abstract
This work investigates the partial solubilization of cell wall polysaccharides in okra flours and the changes in the profile of free and bound phenolics through twin-screw extrusion. The comparison between extruded wheat flour-native okra flour (EWF-OF) and extruded wheat flour-extruded okra flour (EWF-EOF) composite blends revealed that extrusion led to an increase of soluble dietary fiber from 7.76 to 10.02 g/100 g. Extrusion of okra also resulted in a significant increase of free and bound phenolic acids, the latter consisting mostly of ferulic acid, as well as the thermal degradation of free epigallocatechin, and the binding of a small portion of quercetin-3-O-glucoside likely to a carbohydrate fraction. Bread crumbs from EWF-EOF (at 15% replacement level) exhibited a significantly lower hardness and higher elasticity, cohesiveness and resilience (from 28.28 N, 0.94, 0.49 and 0.17 to 7.54 N, 0.99, 0.70 and 0.35, respectively), which closely resembled the textural attributes of wheat bread.

Abstract
The practice of sourdough bread-making is an ancient science that involves the development, maintenance, and use of a diverse and complex starter culture. The sourdough starter culture comes in many different forms and is used in bread-making at both artisanal and commercial scales, in countries all over the world. While there is ample scientific research related to sourdough, there is no standardized approach to using sourdough starters in science or the bread industry; and there are few recommendations on future directions for sourdough research. Our review highlights what is currently known about the microbial ecosystem of sourdough (including microbial succession within the starter culture), methods of maintaining sourdough (analogous to land management) on the path to bread production, and factors that influence the sensory qualities of the final baked product. We present new hypotheses for the successful management of sourdough starters and propose future directions for sourdough research and application to better support and engage the sourdough baking community.

Abstract
Dietary pattern and cooking methods are important factors to determine the nutrients supplementation for male reproduction. Methionine and choline are two methyl donors in daily diet, which could mediate the lipid metabolism, but their effects on the sperms are not clear. In this study, we fed the mice with methionine-choline deficient (MCD) diet or the baked MCD diet for 6 weeks to evaluate this dietary pattern and the appended high temperature cooking on the spermatogenesis. The results have shown that MCD diet induced testis degradation and the damage of spermatocytes, reduced sperm vitality, motility, but elevated sperm deformity. Additionally, baking of MCD diet aggravated the testis injury, further reduced sperm density, sperm motility, and decreased normal sperm morphology dramatically. These changes were not related to the blood-testis barrier nor the Leydig cells dysfunction, but related to spermatocytes lost and apoptosis. The spermatocyte apoptosis was mediated by reticulum stress, including GRP78, XBP-1 and CHOP gene expression. Our study has shown the importance of methionine and choline in diet, and emphasized the crucial role of cooking condition, which are dietary factors to influence the quality of sperms.

Thermodynamic description of the chemical leavening in biscuits. Curr Res Food Sci 2021; 4:191-199.

Abstract
In this paper we describe the chemical reactions of leavening agents in baking biscuits on a sound thermodynamic basis. The model is part in a sequel targetted at physical understanding of biscuit baking with the purpose of reformulation of biscuits with respect to sucrose and sodium levels. The chemical leavening gases, CO2 and NH3, originate from the dissociation of sodium and ammonium bicarbonate. Next to water vapour, these produced gases create gas bubbles in the biscuit dough. The concentrations of the leavening agents and added salt lead to high ionic strength. Consequently, the activities of ions participating in the leavening reaction deviate strongly from ideality. The non-idealities are described using the Pitzer equations. The values of many parameters of the Pitzer model and equilibrium constants are obtained from the strong developed field of CO2 sequestering in ammonia solutions. The model describing the chemical reactions is coupled to a cell model describing the expansion of gas bubbles. Model simulations show that most of the produced gas originates from the bicarbonate, and the ammonium contributes significantly less. The functionality of ammonium as leavening agent is not quite clear, but it may help in reducing sodium levels.

Abstract
Health benefits of whole wheat products are partially attributed to their unique phenolic profiles. This study investigated the effect of bread-making processes on the phenolic profiles and antioxidant activities of four different varieties of hard red winter wheat. The fermentation process generally increased soluble phenolic content, flavonoid content, antioxidant activities, and soluble ferulic acid of whole wheat products. The baking process increased the soluble phenolic content and antioxidant activities. Some phenolic acids were incorporated into Maillard reaction products during baking. For the insoluble fraction, fermentation and baking slightly increased phenolic content, flavonoid content, and antioxidant activities of certain wheat varieties. Ferulic acid and isomers of di-ferulic acid (DFA) were not significantly affected by the baking process. Overall, the bread-making process demonstrated positive effects on the potential health benefits of whole wheat products.

Investigating the potential of slow-retrograding starches to reduce staling in soft savory bread and sweet cake model systems. Food Res Int 2020; 138:109745.

Abstract
The potential anti-staling property of starches with slow-retrograding amylopectin was studied in soft wheat bread and cake model systems. Normal rice, waxy rice, and wheat starches were processed by drum drying or extrusion, and native starch was used as a comparator. Extrusion processing causing amylopectin fragmentation can reduce intermolecular retrogradation of rice starch. Starches were incorporated into model breads and cakes as partial replacements for flour on a dry weight basis (3 and 6% for cakes, 5 and 15% for breads). Starches pregelatinized by extrusion had moderate molecular fragmentation, as indicated by RVA and HPSEC-MALLS-RI. Starches previously shown to have lower intermolecular retrograding amylopectin (normal rice, waxy rice) resulted in minor to moderate reductions in hardness and other textural properties as indicated by texture profile analysis (TPA) in breads and cakes upon storage for up to 12 wk. A higher degree of starch fragmentation is suggested to produce lower staling. Incorporation of normal and waxy rice starches resulted in softer breads and cakes than wheat starch, which could be attributed to the shorter external and internal amylopectin chains of rice starch. Higher inclusion (15%) of slow-retrograding waxy rice in the bread model system showed the most potential for anti-staling property.

Predicting vital wheat gluten quality using the gluten aggregation test and the microscale extension test. Curr Res Food Sci 2020; 3:322-328.

Abstract
Vital gluten is a by-product of wheat starch production and commonly used in bread making, but its quality is difficult to predict. The most accurate method to determine vital gluten quality is the baking experiment, but this approach is time- and labor-intensive. Therefore, the aim was to identify faster and easier ways to predict vital gluten quality. Three different approaches, the gliadin/glutenin ratio, the gluten aggregation test and the microscale extension test, were assessed for their predictive value regarding the baking performance of 46 vital gluten samples using two recipes. Hierarchical clustering classified the vital gluten samples into 23 samples with good, 15 with medium and eight with poor quality. Protein-related parameters, such as the gliadin/glutenin ratio, were not reliable to predict gluten quality, because the correlations to the bread volumes were weak. The gluten aggregation test and the microscale extension test were reliable methods to predict vital gluten quality for use in baking based on a scoring system. Both methods need less material, time and labor compared to baking experiments. Especially, maximum torque, peak maximum time, the ratio between peak30 and peak180 as well as the corresponding distance at maximum resistance to extension seem to be suitable alternatives to predict vital gluten quality.

Abstract
In Bangladesh, with the mounting esteem of bakery products, food safety issues in bakery industries are a paramount concern nowadays. In this regard, this current study was performed to evaluate food safety knowledge, attitude, and self-reported practices of two groups (160 trained and 55 new untrained) of workers from two popular baking industries in Dhaka, Bangladesh. A self-administrated questionnaire was used to acquire the data during the study. On food safety knowledge, attitude, and self-reported practices, trained workers' scores (33.01 ± 0.09, 14.86 ± 0.03, 10.66 ± 0.25, respectively) were significantly higher than the scores (9.82 ± 0.23, 10.44 ± 0.26, 5.91 ± 0.33, respectively) of newly appointed untrained workers. The quality assurance department displayed better knowledge, attitude, and self-reported practices scores than the rest of the departments of the industries. However, compared to knowledge and attitude, the self-reported practice was not up to a satisfactory level. According to the study, training can be proved effective for improving knowledge and attitude but does not always translate those into self-reported practice and behaviors. The results also reinforce the importance of conducting training for untrained workers and suggest further behavior-based food safety training for all employees.

Frozen-dough baking potential of psychrotolerant Saccharomyces species and derived hybrids. Food Microbiol 2020; 94:103640.

Abstract
Despite Saccharomyces cerevisiae being a synonym for baker's yeast, the species does not perform well in all baking-related conditions. In particular, dough fermentation, or proofing, is compromised by the species' sensitivity to the low and freezing temperatures that are often used in modern bakeries. Here, screening trials that included representatives of all known Saccharomyces species, showed that S. cerevisiae was generally the most sensitive member of the genus with respect to cold and freezing conditions. We hypothesized therefore that the superior cold tolerance of the non-S. cerevisiae yeast would enable their use as frozen-dough baking strains. To test this, the different yeast species were incorporated into doughs, flash frozen and kept in a frozen state for 14 days. During the proofing stage, dough development was lower in doughs that had been frozen, relative to fresh doughs. This reduction in fermentation performance was however most pronounced with S. cerevisiae. The psychrotolerant yeasts S. eubayanus, S. jurei and S. arboricola showed a strong capacity for post-freeze proofing in terms of dough development and duration of lag phase prior to fermentation. The superior proofing power of these species resulted in breads that were significantly softer and less dense than those prepared with S. cerevisiae. A sensory panel could distinguish the S. cerevisiae and non-S. cerevisiae breads based on their physical properties, but aroma and taste were unaffected by the species employed. To further improve frozen dough baking properties, S. eubayanus, S. jurei and S. arboricola were crossed with baker's yeast through rare mating, and hybrids with improved proofing capacities in both fresh and frozen doughs relative to the parents were created. The use of S. jurei and S. arboricola in baking represents the first potential technological application of these species.

Abstract
The expeller-pressed (EP) corn germ oil oleogels were prepared using rice bran wax (RBX) at different concentrations (3, 5, 7, and 9 wt%). Their structural properties, including color, hardness, thermal behavior, rheological property, and crystal structure were evaluated. The performance of oleogels for potential food application was examined by incorporating oleogels into cookies as a fully replacement for commercial shortenings. Overall, RBX could form oleogels in both refined and EP corn germ oils at a concentration ≥3 wt%. Refined corn oil produced a stronger gel than crude corn oil. When comparing cookie characteristics, cookies made with both types of oleogels showed similar properties with commercial cookies. This result indicates that oleogels made by refined and EP corn germ oil together with RBX have the potential to imitate the functionality of commercial shortening in the baking industry.

Abstract
The present study evaluated the thermal properties of sponge cake batters with different functional ingredients, and the effects of their adding on starch gelatinization. Samples of sponge cake batter: with wheat flour (control batter), with a reduced quantity of wheat flour and addition of functional ingredients (sponge cake batter with 50% einkorn wholemeal flour, sponge cake batter with 20% Jerusalem artichoke powder, sponge cake batter with 35% cocoa husk powder) were investigated. Using the method of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) the starch gelatinization temperature intervals (°C) and energies of the different batters during baking were evaluated. Based on the experimental results, it could be concluded that the addition of functional ingredients in the cake batter retard the starch gelatinization. The gelatinization occurs at higher temperature and with higher energy consumption. The retarding effect of the functional ingredients is related to the water binding capacity and the presence of dietary fiber.

[PMID: 31194051 PMCID: PMC6551486 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2019.e01805] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/27/2019] [Revised: 04/25/2019] [Accepted: 05/21/2019] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
A protocol for determining the characteristic temperatures of thermomechanical transitions on gluten-free flour doughs is proposed. This protocol is based on the mathematical analysis of experimental curve of storage modulus (G′) vs temperature obtained by means of Dynamic Mechanical Thermal Analysis (DMTA) technique. Doughs at constant consistency of chestnut flour with different levels (3, 6 and 9% flour basis, f.b.) of brown seaweed (Bifurcaria bifurcata, Fucus vesiculosus and Ascophyllum nodosum) powders addition, 2% f.b. of guar gum and 1.8% f.b. of salt with different water absorption were used to test the proposed protocol. The ranges of temperatures corresponding to starch gelatinization (59–97 °C), amylopectin crystallites melting (82–101 °C), reversible dissociation of lipid-amylose complexes (107–128 °C) and amylose melting (133–171 °C) showed a strong dependence with water absorption of samples. Doughs with the same water absorption submitted to starch gelatinization during mixing were also analysed to corroborate the protocol suitability. Total polyphenols content and radical scavenging activity of extracts from chestnut flour-seaweed powder blends and seaweed-enriched chestnut cookies baked at 180 °C were determined. Extraction assisted with ultrasounds was carried out employing acetone-water (70:30 v/v) solution as solvent during 4 min with a liquid/solid ratio of 30 w/w. Seaweed powder addition had a positive effect on antioxidant properties of doughs before baking. However, the seaweed powder addition effect on baked products (cookies) is not clear due to antioxidant activity is overlapped by Maillard's products generated during baking.

Use of ultrasonicated squid ovary powder as a replacer of egg white powder in cake. JOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY 2019; 56:2083-2092. [PMID: 30996442 DOI: 10.1007/s13197-019-03687-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Revised: 02/19/2019] [Accepted: 02/24/2019] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
Ultrasonicated squid ovary powder (USOP) was used to replace egg white powder (EWP) at different substitution levels (12.5-100%) and its effects on properties of batter and cake were investigated. High elastic modulus (G') and average bubble size of batter added with 100% USOP resulted in higher volume and lower baking loss, when compared to the control cake (100% EWP). For textural analysis, the lowest values of hardness, gumminess and chewiness were noticeable for cake containing 100% USOP. Crust showed the lower moisture content than crumb and bottom part of all the cakes. No difference in moisture content was observed for all parts of the cakes containing 25-100% USOP, while lower moisture content was obtained for cake added with 12.5% USOP and the control. The color difference (ΔE*) between the control and cake added with USOP was increased with increasing USOP levels. When 100% of USOP was added into cake, higher likeness score was obtained for firmness and overall likeness. Microstructure study of cake added with 100% USOP revealed that oil phase was distributed in gluten matrix more uniformly, when compared to the control. Thus, replacement of EWP with 100% USOP resulted in the production of cake with superior quality and increased overall acceptance by consumers.

Evaluation of thermal inactivation parameters of Salmonella in whole wheat multigrain bread. Food Microbiol 2019; 82:334-341. [PMID: 31027791 DOI: 10.1016/j.fm.2019.03.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/01/2018] [Revised: 03/02/2019] [Accepted: 03/03/2019] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
This study was conducted to validate a simulated commercial whole wheat multigrain bread baking process at 375 °F (190.6 °C) oven temperature for 35 min to inactivate Salmonella, and to determine the thermal inactivation parameters of a 7-serovar Salmonella cocktail in whole wheat multigrain bread dough. A ≥5-log CFU/g reduction in Salmonella population was achieved by 15 min, and no viable Salmonella was detected after enrichment plating by 16 min. The aw of the bread crumb (0.96) after baking and 60 min of cooling was similar to that of pre-baked bread dough, whereas the aw of bread crust decreased to 0.81 at the end of baking and cooling. The D-values of the Salmonella cocktail in bread dough were 59.6, 20.0 and 9.7 min at 50, 52 and 55 °C, respectively; and the z-value was 6.5 °C.

Abstract
Bakery products with fruit fillings are growing fast. Blueberry-filled pastries are widely consumed in China. This study aimed to investigate the effects of two thermal processing procedures (stir-frying and baking) on flavonoid profile, antioxidant property, and hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) formation during preparation of blueberry-filled pastries. Stir-frying contributed the most to the variations in these values in blueberry filling. Anthocyanins (48%-53% reduction in total) were more susceptible to thermal processing than flavonols (11%-16%). Among anthocyanins, delphinidin glycosides (61%-67% reduction) were the most unstable, followed by malvidin (52%-58%), petunidin (40%-45%), and cyanidin (38%-41%). A high level of HMF (300 mg/kg) was formed during stir-frying. Except for anthocyanins, baking did not significantly influence HMF formation, flavonol degradation, and antioxidant property in the fillings. Stir-frying processing conditions rather than baking must be further investigated for nutrient retention and HMF inhibition.

Abstract
The effects of peeling and cooking processes (boiling, steaming and baking) on the proximate, amino acids, mono, and disaccharides content of Oromo dinich (Plectranthus edulis) tubers from selected landraces were investigated. The effect of peeling on the crude protein, reducing sugars and sucrose content of the tuber was not consistent across the landraces. Crude protein reduced in landraces DHSer, IWsh, DGArr, and DGArw but increased in landrace CWsh. Reducing sugars (fructose, glucose, and maltose) increase in landraces LWsh, CWsh, DGArr, and DOJiw but reduced in landrace DOSu. Sucrose reduced in landraces IWsh and LWsh but increased in landrace CWsh on dry matter basis. Peeling significantly reduced the dry matter, ash and crude fiber content of the tubers. Dry matter reduced in landraces CWsh, DGArr, and DGArw; ash reduced in landraces DHSer and DGArw; crude-fiber reduced in landraces DOSu, DOSer, LWsh, CWsh, DGArr, and DGArw. On contrary, peeling significantly increased the crude fat, sum of total amino acids content and energy density of the tubers. Crude fat increased in landrace DOSu, IWsh, CWsh, DGArr, and DOJiw. Sum of total amino acids increased in landraces DOSu, DOJiw, and DGArw. Energy density (KJ/100 g dm) increased in landraces DOSu, DHSer, IWsh, and DOJiw. Boiling and steaming significantly increased the ash content of the tubers in landrace LWsh. Steaming and baking significantly increased crude fiber in landraces IWch and CWsh, and carbohydrate content of the tubers in landrace LWsh. Boiling, steaming and baking significantly reduced the crude fiber and the energy density of the tubers in landrace LWsh. Baking significantly reduced the moisture content of the tubers in landraces IWch, LWsh and CWsh. Boiling significantly reduced reducing sugars and crude fat content of the tubers in landraces IWch, LWsh and CWsh. The reduction in reducing sugar and crude fat content most likely is due to leaching and the presence of essential oils respectively. Thus to get the best possible nutritional benefits from P.edulis tubers, cooking with their skin under optimized operation recommended.

Abstract
Recent recalls and outbreaks due to foodborne pathogens in thermally processed low-moisture foods highlight the need for the food industry to validate their thermal process. The purpose of this study was to validate baking as an adequate lethality step in controlling Salmonella and Listeria monocytogenes during the production of peanut butter (PB)-filled pretzels and whole wheat (WW) pita chips. Two dough types, PB-filled pretzel and WW pita chip with varying water activities (0.96 to 0.98), were inoculated (target level, ∼108 to 109 CFU/g) with a multistrain cocktail of Salmonella and L. monocytogenes in separate trials and were baked at 300°F (148.9°C) and 350°F (176.6°C) for 0, 5, 10, 17, 25, and 30 min. Following baking, samples were rapidly cooled and analyzed for Salmonella and L. monocytogenes by the pour plate method. Uninoculated samples were analyzed for total viable aerobic plate count (APC) and Enterobacteriaceae counts. Water activity analysis was also performed. The experiment was replicated three times. Nonlinear regression was used to estimate the baking times required to achieve a minimum of 4- and 5-log reduction in APC, Salmonella, and L. monocytogenes. A 4- and 5-log reduction in APC was predicted following a treatment at 350°F for 3.3 and 5.6 min in WW pita chip product, respectively. Following a treatment of 350°F for 10 and 25 min, Enterobacteriaceae and APC counts were below the detection limit (<1 log CFU/g), respectively, in all of the PB-filled pretzel samples. Salmonella and L. monocytogenes counts decreased with increasing baking time regardless of the temperature used. Significant reductions (≥5-log reduction) were estimated in Salmonella and L. monocytogenes in product baked at 350°F for 15.5 and 17.5 min in WW pita chip dough and PB-filled pretzel dough, respectively. Both pathogens were below the detection limit (<1 log CFU/g) in PB-filled pretzel and WW pita chip products under baking conditions of 350°F for 25 and 30 min, respectively. This study demonstrates that PB-filled pretzel and WW pita chip products, when baked to saleable quality, will not present a public health risk from the standpoint of Salmonella or L. monocytogenes.

Quantifying the differences in structure and mechanical response of confectionery products resulting from the baking and extrusion processes. J FOOD ENG 2018; 238:112-121.

Abstract
Extrusion has potential advantages over baking in terms of throughput, asset cost and flexibility. However, it is challenging to achieve through extrusion the “light, crispy” texture of a more traditional baked confectionery. This study compares and contrasts for the first time confectionery products produced through these two processes, i.e. baking and extrusion. The microstructural differences are measured using imaging techniques, i.e. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and X-Ray Tomography (XRT) whereas mechanical characterisation is used to highlight differences in the resulting mechanical properties. Crucial information is presented which shows that the two technologies result in different mechanical properties and microstructures, even if the level of porosity in the two products is kept constant. In addition, confectionery products whether they are produced through baking or extrusion, have irregular geometries. The latter makes mechanical characterisation a real challenge. Therefore this study also presents rigorous methods for measuring true mechanical properties such that meaningful and valid comparisons may be made. The accuracy of the chosen methodologies is verified through experiments using flat and tubular extruded geometries as well as testing the products in various directions. It was concluded that the manufacturing method and, in the case of extrusion, the initial moisture content influences the microstructure and mechanics of confectionery products, both of which have an impact on consumer sensory perception. Extrusion has advantages over baking but it is hard to achieve a light/crispy texture. Products made via the two technologies are compared microstructurally and mechanically. Rigorous methods for irregular product geometries were developed for valid comparisons. Our data are required as inputs to computational predictive models of the bulk response. Quantification of differences paves the way for optimising extrusion processes.

Effect of food matrix and thermal processing on the performance of a normalised quantitative real-time PCR approach for lupine (Lupinus albus) detection as a potential allergenic food. Food Chem 2018; 262:251-259.

Abstract
Lupine is widely used as an ingredient in diverse food products, but it is also a source of allergens. This work aimed at proposing a method to detect/quantify lupine as an allergen in processed foods based on a normalised real-time PCR assay targeting the Lup a 4 allergen-encoding gene of Lupinus albus. Sensitivities down to 0.0005%, 0.01% and 0.05% (w/w) of lupine in rice flour, wheat flour and bread, respectively, and 1 pg of L. albus DNA were obtained, with adequate real-time PCR performance parameters using the ΔCt method. Both food matrix and processing affected negatively the quantitative performance of the assay. The method was successfully validated with blind samples and applied to processed foods. Lupine was estimated between 4.12 and 22.9% in foods, with some results suggesting the common practice of precautionary labelling. In this work, useful and effective tools were proposed for the detection/quantification of lupine in food products.

Abstract
A type D ferulic acid esterase (FAE) was identified in the culture supernatant of Streptomyces werraensis, purified, sequenced, and heterologously produced in E. coli BL21(DE3)Star by co-expressing chaperones groES-groEL (69 U L-1). The unique enzyme with a mass of about 48 kDa showed no similarity to other FAEs, and only moderate homology (78.5%) to a Streptomycete β-xylosidase. The purified reSwFAED exhibited a temperature optimum of 40 °C, a pH optimum in the range from pH seven to eight and a clear preference for bulky natural substrates, such as 5-O-trans-feruloyl-L-arabinofuranose (FA) and β-D-xylopyranosyl-(1→2)-5-O-trans-feruloyl-L-arabinofuranose (FAX), compared to the synthetic standard substrate methyl ferulate. Treatment of wheat dough with as little as 0.03 U or 0.3 U kg-1 reSwFAED activity resulted in a significant increase of the bun volume (8.0 or 9.7%, resp.) after baking when combined with polysaccharide-degrading enzymes from Aspergillus. For the first time, the long-standing, but rarely proven positive effect of a FAE in baking was confirmed.

Understanding the influence of buckwheat bran on wheat dough baking performance: Mechanistic insights from molecular and material science approaches. Food Res Int 2017; 102:728-737.

Abstract
A molecular and material science approach is used to describe the influence of coarse and fine buckwheat bran on wheat dough properties and bread textural quality. Focus is given on (i) gluten solvation and structural arrangements in presence of bran as studied by front-face fluorescence; (ii) thermo-mechanical behavior of dough during heating studied by dynamic mechanical thermal analysis and (iii) texture of bread crumb analyzed in terms of a cellular solid. The thermo-mechanical behavior of dough was found to be largely related to starch phase transitions during heating. The use of thermodynamic approaches to biopolymer melting revealed that key transitions such as the onset of starch gelatinization were function of the interplay of water and bran volume fractions in the dough. Front-face fluorescence studies in wheat dough revealed that gluten solvation and structural arrangements were delayed by increasing bran addition level and reduction in particle size, as indicated by the drastic decrease in the protein surface hydrophobicity index. Variations in gluten structure could be strongly related to dough baking performance, i.e. specific volume. With regards to texture, the approach revealed that crumb texture was controlled by variations in density, moisture and bran volume fractions. Overall, this study elucidates a number of physical mechanisms describing the influence of buckwheat bran addition to dough and bread quality. These mechanisms strongly pointed at the influence of bran on water partitioning among the main polymeric components. In the future, these mechanisms should be investigated with bran material of varying source, composition and structure.

Abstract
This is the first study to investigate the extent of reduction in acrylamide formation during baking with the addition of (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) extracted from green tea, and to determine whether EGCG influences the texture and colour attributes of bread, or interacts with other ingredients. EGCG powders were added to white bread formulations at the concentrations of 3.3, 6.6 and 9.9g·kg-1. The amount of acrylamide in the bread was analysed using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. EGCG addition significantly reduced the acrylamide formation by 37% compared to the control and decreased the moisture content of the bread by 6%. It did not affect its texture attribute, but increased the lightness and the yellowness and decreased the redness of bread crust (with contrasting results in crumb). It also decreased granule size and porosity. In conclusion, EGCG fortification is a feasible method to decrease acrylamide formation in baked bread.

On the assessments of arabinoxylan localization and enzymatic modifications for enhanced protein networking and its structural impact on rye dough and bread. Food Chem 2017; 229:178-187.

Abstract
For rye dough structure, it is hypothesised that the presence of arabinoxylan hinders the proteins from forming a coherent network. This hypothesis was investigated using fluorescent-stained antibodies that bind to the arabinoxylan chains. Image analysis proves that the arabinoxylan surrounds the proteins, negatively affecting protein networking. Further, it is hypothesised that the dosing of xylanase and transglutaminase has a positive impact on rye dough and bread characteristics; the findings in this study evidenced that this increases the protein network by up to 38% accompanied by a higher volume rise of 10.67%, compared to standard rye dough. These outcomes combine a product-oriented and physiochemical design of a recipe, targeting structural and functional relationships, and demonstrate a successful methodology for enhancing rye bread quality.

Abstract
The enzymes Xyl1 and Xyl2 from T. stromaticum were purified and identified by mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF/MS). Xyl1 contained three proteins with similarity to xylanase family 10, 62 and anarabinofuranosidase of the Trichoderma genus and Xyl2 contained a protein with similarity to endo-1,4-β-xylanase. High xylanase activity was found at 50°C for Xyl1 and 60°C for Xyl2 and pH 5.0 for both, retaining more than 80% of activities for one hour at 60°C and pH 5-8. Ag2+ and β-mercaptoethanol increased while SDS and EDTA inhibited the xylanase activity of both Xyl1 and Xyl2 extracts. The Km and Vmax values for purified Xyl2 were 9.6mg/mL and 28.57μmol/min/mg, respectively. In application tests, both Xyl1 and Xyl2 were effective in degrading beechwood xylan to produce xylo-oligosaccharides. In baking, adding Xyl1 increased the softness and volume of wheat bread and whole grain bread, qualities increasingly desired by consumers in this segment.

Abstract
Ustilago maydis, an edible mushroom growing on maize (Zea mays), is consumed as the food delicacy huitlacoche in Mexico. A chlorogenic acid esterase from this basidiomycete was expressed in good yields cultivating the heterologous host Pichia pastoris on the 5L bioreactor scale (reUmChlE; 45.9UL(-1)). In contrast to previously described chlorogenic acid esterases, the reUmChlE was also active towards feruloylated saccharides. The enzyme preferred substrates with the ferulic acid esterified to the O-5 position of arabinose residues, typical of graminaceous monocots, over the O-2 position of arabinose or the O-6 position of galactose residues. Determination of kcat/Km showed that the reUmChlE hydrolyzed chlorogenic acid 18-fold more efficiently than methyl ferulate, p-coumarate or caffeate. Phenolic acids were released by reUmChlE from natural substrates, such as destarched wheat bran, sugar beet pectin and coffee pulp. Treatment of wheat dough using reUmChlE resulted in a noticeable softening indicating a potential application of the enzyme in bakery and confectionery.

Carotenoid profile and retention in yellow-, purple- and red-fleshed potatoes after thermal processing. Food Chem 2015; 197:992-1001. [PMID: 26617045 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2015.11.072] [Citation(s) in RCA: 33] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/04/2015] [Revised: 11/12/2015] [Accepted: 11/13/2015] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
This research aimed to investigate the effect of thermal processing on carotenoid profile, quantity and stability in 22 colour-fleshed potato cultivars grown in the Czech Republic. The total of nine carotenoids was analysed by HPLC using a C30 column and PDA detection. The total carotenoid content for all cultivars ranged from 1.44 to 40.13 μg/g DM. Yellow cultivars showed a much higher average total carotenoid content (26.22 μg/g DM) when compared to red/purple-fleshed potatoes (5.69 μg/g DM). Yellow cultivars were dominated by antheraxanthin, whereas neoxanthin was the main carotenoid in red/purple cultivars. Thermal processing significantly impacted all potato cultivars. Boiling decreased the total carotenoids by 92% compared to baking (88%). Lutein was the most stable carotenoid against thermal processing (decreased by 24-43%) followed by β-carotene (decreased by 78-83%); other carotenoids were degraded nearly completely. Increased formation of (Z)-isomers by thermal processing has not been confirmed.

Influence of water biscuit processing and kernel puffing on the phenolic acid content and the antioxidant activity of einkorn and bread wheat. Journal of Food Science and Technology 2015; 53:541-50. [PMID: 26787973 DOI: 10.1007/s13197-015-2010-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Revised: 08/18/2015] [Accepted: 08/24/2015] [Indexed: 12/21/2022]
Abstract
The whole meal flour of wheat is rich in phenolic acids, which provide a relevant antioxidant activity to food products. Aim of this research was to assess the influence of processing on phenolic acid content and antioxidant activity of whole meal flour water biscuits and puffed kernels of einkorn and bread wheat. To this end, the evolution of syringaldehyde, ferulic, vanillic, syringic, p-coumaric, p-hydroxybenzoic, and caffeic acids was studied during manufacturing. Overall, from flour to water biscuit, the total soluble conjugated phenolic acids increased slightly in einkorn, while the insoluble bound phenolic acids decreased in all the accessions as a consequence of losses during the mixing step. In the puffed kernels, instead, the total soluble conjugated phenolic acids increased markedly, while the bound phenolics did not show any clear change, evidencing their high thermal stability. The antioxidant activity, measured by FRAP and ABTS, increased during processing and was highest under the most drastic puffing conditions.
