Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) has been widely used to determine water molecular mobility in food systems. This study aimed to examine the effects of matrix structure and solutes on the dynamics of water molecules in model mixed systems, glycerol-agar-water gels, using low- and high-resolution NMR. Simple models to explain water relaxation rates and self-diffusion coefficients in mixed systems were developed using the experimental values obtained for the individual binary systems (glycerol-water solutions and agar-water gels). The spin-lattice relaxation of mixed systems was influenced by interactions of both glycerol and agar with water, while the spin-spin relaxation of mixed systems was dominated by the interaction of agar with water. Water diffusion was influenced by not only molecular interactions between all components but also the gel matrix structure. These models are able to differentiate the effect of solutes from that of matrix structure on water molecular dynamics.  相似文献

The changes in water proton transverse relaxation behavior induced by aggregation of whey proteins are explained in terms of the simple molecular processes of diffusion and chemical exchange. The water self-diffusion coefficient was measured in whey protein solutions and gels by the pulsed field gradient NMR method. As expected, water self-diffusion was reduced with increased protein concentrations. Whatever the concentration, the water molecules were free to diffuse over distances varying from 15 to 47 mum. Water diffusion was constant over these distances, demonstrating that no restrictions were found to explain the water hindrance. The modification in protein structure by gelation induced a decrease in water diffusion. The effects of protein concentration on water diffusion are discussed and modeled. Two approaches were compared, the obstruction effect induced by a spherical particle and the cell model, which considered two water compartments with specific self-diffusion coefficients.  相似文献

The self-diffusion coefficients of water in casein solutions and gels were measured using a pulsed-gradient spin-echo nuclear magnetic resonance technique (PGSE NMR). The dependence of the self-diffusion coefficient of water on the concentration and structure of casein is reported. The results were analyzed using a cell model. It was found that the water self-diffusion coefficient is insensitive to the structure of the casein in solution or in a gelled state. The influence of casein concentration on the water self-diffusion coefficient could be explained by obstruction from the casein molecule. Assuming a simple model with two water regions, each characterized by a specific water concentration and value of the water diffusion coefficient, the water mobility reduction induced by the casein can be rationalized.  相似文献

The water self-diffusion coefficients in casein matrixes were measured using a pulsed field gradient spin-echo nuclear magnetic resonance technique (PFG-SE NMR). The dependence of the water self-diffusion coefficient on the casein concentration and the aqueous phase composition is reported in both a rehydrated native phosphocaseinate dispersion and a concentrated casein retentate. A model has been proposed to explain the different behavior of the water self-diffusion coefficient in the two casein systems. This model demonstrates that the water self-diffusion cannot be simply explained by the water content only. So, taking into account the specific effect of each constituent of the aqueous dispersing phase, the water self-diffusion reduction induced by the casein micelle can be modeled. The effect of fat on the water self-diffusion coefficients was investigated. Anhydrous milk fat-reconstituted retentate samples were used in order to estimate the obstruction effect of fat globules in the modeling process. The dependence of the self-diffusion coefficient of water on the fat and casein content is reported. A general model included the effect of the aqueous phase composition, and the obstruction effects of casein micelles and fat globules were proposed. This model was validated for water self-diffusion coefficients in industrial fatty retentates.  相似文献

Permeability studies of water through the skin and flesh of d'Agen plums have been carried out by radiotracer and PGSE NMR techniques as a function of moisture content. The results have shown that the diffusion coefficient of water through the skin layer increases as the fruit is dried at 70 degrees C or above. By contrast, the water diffusion through the fruit becomes more hindered as moisture is lost and structural collapse of the cell layers takes place. Values for diffusion coefficients of water at 21 degrees C through the fruit of 1 x 10(-)(9) m(2) s(-)(1) for fresh plums and 2.0 x 10(-)(10) m(2) s(-)(1) for fruit dried to 50% moisture content (wet basis) were found. Structural studies using scanning electron microscopy techniques were also performed. These showed that drying induces marked changes to the waxy skin layer of the fruit as well as the fruit flesh. These results are discussed in terms of the important role that the plum skin has in modulating the moisture loss process during dehydration, particularly at early stages of drying.  相似文献

The release of a strawberry aroma from different composite gels taken as models of fruit preparations and from a sucrose solution was investigated. The composition of the model systems differed with regard to the gelling agent, either pectin or carrageenan, and to the rigidity of the gel. With the use of atmospheric pressure chemical ionization-mass spectrometry, the release profiles of the aroma compounds were determined under stirring. At the same time, purge and trap measurements were performed to determine the release profiles of the aroma compounds without stirring. The comparison of the patterns obtained using these two complementary methods made it possible to determine how the structure of the matrix, the mechanical treatment, and the properties of the aroma compound affect aroma release. A far greater proportion of the aroma compounds was retained in the fruit preparation systems than in the sucrose solution. The different release profiles could be interpreted in terms of the volatility of the aroma compounds and of their diffusion through the gels.  相似文献

The gas-liquid partition coefficients of ethyl acetate and ethyl hexanoate have been measured in water and aqueous sucrose solutions from 25 to -10 degrees C by dynamic headspace. Experiments were carried out on sucrose solutions at temperatures where no ice formation was possible. Results showed that when sucrose concentration increased, aroma volatility increased except for ethyl hexanoate and in the highest sucrose concentration solution (57.5%). A quasi-linear temperature decrease on aroma volatility was observed in sucrose solutions from 25 to around 4 and 0 degrees C. Then, from 0 to -10 degrees C, aroma volatility did not decrease: ethyl acetate volatility remained constant but that of ethyl hexanoate increased. Enthalpy of vaporization and activity coefficients of the aroma compounds were calculated.  相似文献

THE EFFECT OF MOLECULAR SIZE ON DIFFUSION CHARACTERISTICS IN SOIL   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2  
Measurements of the apparent self-diffusion coefficients of, poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) mol. wt. 40 000, polyethylene glycol) mol. wt. 4000, and chloride ion, were used to determine the effect of molecular size on diffusion characteristics in soil. The measurements were carried out on the same soil, at a range of moisture contents, and indicated that the mobility of large molecules in soils depends, to a large degree, on the inter-aggregate pores. Any drop in moisture content which caused these pores to drain, produced a sharp decrease in the apparent self-diffusion coefficient of the poly(viny) pyrrolidone) 40 000. Neither poly(ethylene glycol) 4000 nor chloride, which exhibited similar diffusion characteristics, were as sensitive to variation in moisture content. The results are interpreted in terms of certain parts of the pore volume being inaccessible to the diffusing molecule. Possible reasons are outlined.  相似文献

17O NMR spectroscopy and (13)C NMR spectroscopy have been used to study the mechanism of interaction of sugars with bovine and caprine caseins in D(2)O. The (17)O NMR relaxation results showed in all cases an increase in water of hydration, as a result of added sugar; this was predominantly associated with "trapped" water in the caseins. Analysis of the vir al coefficients, obtained from the (17)O relaxation data, suggested that preferential interactions occur in the sugar-protein solutions. This could be the result of either sugar binding or a solute-solute thermodynamic effect, preferential hydration. The addition of sugars to deuterated solutions of bovine casein and caprine casein high in alpha(s1)-casein had little or no effect on either line width or chemical shifts of the (13)C NMR spectra of these milk proteins. (13)C NMR studies of sucrose, at various concentrations (100-300 mM) in the presence of caprine casein high in alpha(s1)-casein, showed no changes in either chemical shifts or T(1) values. This indicates that the sugar molecules tumble isotropically and therefore neither bind to the protein nor affect viscosity in the protein-sugar studies. All of these data suggest that the preferential exclusion of the sugar from the domain of the caseins results in preferential hydration of the caseins.  相似文献

The self-diffusion coefficient of water in soybean protein dispersion and tofu was measured by pulsed field gradient (PFG) NMR. A soy protein isolate (SPI) dispersion (6 and 12%, w/w) in water, calcium cross-linked precipitate, and tofu were used for comparison. The self-diffusion coefficient of water (D) in the SPI dispersion, 2.23 x 10(-9) m2/s, was estimated lower than that of free water, 2.6 x 10(-9) m2/s at 25 degrees C, and decreased as the SPI concentration increased. It further decreased by the addition of calcium chloride, reflecting the obstruction effect induced by the precipitates in addition to the hydration and hydrodynamic interaction in the protein dispersion. The two water regions in tofu were interpreted by the two-site K?rger model: D1 and D2 of soft tofu were 2.26 (+/-0.11) x 10(-9) and 6.84 (+/-0.34) x 10(-11) m2/s, respectively. The relative amount of proton (water) was p1 = 0.98 and p2 = 0.02 at 100 ms of diffusion time. The self-diffusion coefficients of water decreased in pressed tofu, and their relative amounts of water changed to p1 = 0.93 and p2 = 0.07. It was suggested that D1 corresponded to obstructed water in the network structure and D2 corresponded to hydrated water on the surface layer of pores formed in the protein network of tofu. The pore sizes estimated from the diffusion length of obstructed water were 21.3 microm in soft tofu and 20.8 microm in pressed tofu. The removal of fat from pressed tofu led to a decrease in D2 from 6.26 (+/-0.31) x 10(-11) to 3.53 (+/-0.18) x 10(-11) m2/s, and the relative amount of hydrated water increased from 0.07 to 0.14, which indicated hydrophobic hydration.  相似文献

Counter-diffusion coefficients of Rb86 and Sr89 counter diffusing against H+ ions were measured in Dundee silt loam and Sharkey clay soils at differing soil bulk-densities. The cation exchange complex of each soil was saturated with either Rb+, Sr++, or H+ and washed free of salts before making diffusion measurements. The water content of the soil on an oven-dry weight basis was maintained at a constant value for all bulk-densities; 14.2 and 28.0 per cent for the Dundee and Sharkey soils respectively. These moisture contents correspond to a tension of 2/3 bar for sieved soil. The diffusion coefficients were dependent upon concentration. Average counter-diffusion coefficients were calculated and related to soil bulk-density. Soil compaction of Dundee silt loam had little or no effect upon the counter diffusion of Rb86. The average counter-diffusion coefficients of Sr89 in Dundee silt loam and Sharkey clay were significantly and linearly related to bulk-density; as bulk-density increased the average counter-diffusion coefficients increased. The average counter-diffusion coefficients were approximately 0.5–0.75 of the corresponding self-diffusion coefficients measured previously in these soils. The applicability of counter- and self-diffusion data to practical field problems are discussed.  相似文献

To better understand aroma release in relation to yogurt structure and perception, the apparent diffusivity of aroma compounds within complex dairy gels was determined using an experimental diffusion cell. Apparent diffusion coefficients of four aroma compounds (diacetyl, ethyl acetate, ethyl hexanoate, and linalool) at 7 degrees C in yogurts (varying in composition and structure) ranged from 0.07 x 10 (-10) to 8.91 x 10 (-10) m (2) s (-1), depending on aroma compounds and on product structure. The strong effect of yogurt fat content on the apparent diffusivity of hydrophobic compounds was revealed (15-fold and 50-fold decreases in the apparent diffusion coefficient of linalool and ethyl hexanoate, respectively). Protein composition seemed to have a greater effect than that of mechanical treatment. However, variations in the apparent diffusion coefficient for the considered products remained limited and cannot completely explain differences in flavor release and in perception that were previously observed.  相似文献

The effect of different polysaccharides on the rotational (D(rot)) and translational diffusion (D(trans)) coefficients of small molecules in concentrated systems (sucrose solutions) was investigated. Dextran (1 or 10% w/w) with different molecular masses (from 10(4) to 2 x 10(6) Da), gum arabic, or pullulan was added to solutions of sucrose (57.5% w/w). Viscosity measurements of the diffusion medium studied (sucrose and sucrose plus polysaccharide) were made using a Rheometric Scientific viscometer in a temperature range from 20 to -10 degrees C. The rotational mobility of nitroxide radicals (Tempol) dispersed in the concentrated systems was measured by electron spin resonance. The translational diffusion coefficient of fluorescein was determined by the fluorescence recovery after photobleaching method. The studied temperature range for the latter two techniques was from 20 to -16 degrees C. For these conditions of concentration and temperature, there was no ice formation in the samples. No effect of the molecular mass of dextran on D(rot) and D(trans) was observed when solutions with the same dry matter content were compared. Only pullulan and gum arabic, at 10%, had a significant effect on D(trans)( )()of fluorescein. Temperature and total dry matter content were observed to be the most important factors controlling D(rot) and D(trans) in these concentrated systems.  相似文献

The apparent diffusion coefficients, Dp/b+ø, of Zn and ZnEDTA were linear functions of added Zn, and were related to the adsorption and fixation capacities of soils rather than their pH. Lower apparent diffusion coefficient values were found in an Haplustoll soil that had higher clay and humus contents inspite of its lower pH. At comparable rates of added Zn, the apparent diffusion of ZnEDTA was 930–1010 (Bakyria), 700–1330 (Dirab), and 730–1880 (Baha) times that of Zn in the soils. The adsorbed Zn per cm3 of soil/Zn per cm3 of the equilibrium solution at the water content existing in the diffusion experiment approximated the capacity factor and was determined by extrapolation. The self-diffusion coefficient of Zn in Baha soil (5 × 10?7 cm2sec?1) of higher clay and water content was higher than in Bakyria or Dirab soil (2 × 10?7 cm2sec?1). These values were similar to the self-diffusion coefficient of P in soils of similar texture at similar water content.  相似文献

Translational diffusion coefficients (D(12)) of volatile compounds were measured in model media with the profile concentration method. The influence of sample temperature (from 25 to -10 degrees C) was studied on translational diffusion in sucrose or maltodextrin solutions at various concentrations. Results show that diffusivity of volatile compounds in sucrose solutions is controlled by temperature, molecule size, and the viscosity of the liquid phase as expected with the Stokes-Einstein equation; moreover, physicochemical interactions between volatile compounds and the medium are determinant for diffusion estimation. At negative temperature, the winding path induced by an ice crystal content of >70% lowered volatile compound diffusion. On the contrary, no influence on translational diffusion coefficients was observed for lower ice content.  相似文献

The effects of pectin and viscosity on the release of a systematic series of aldehydes (alkanals, methyl-alkanals, alkenals, and alkandienals) were studied in a food model system of low sucrose content (10% w/w). The viscosity was varied by adding different amounts of Ca(2+) (0, 13.5, and 27 mg/g pectin) to the model system of constant pectin concentration (0.4% w/w). Air-liquid partition coefficients, K (37 degrees C), of the aroma compounds were determined in aqueous and pectin-thickened solutions. Diffusivities of the aroma compounds in water and three pectin-thickened solutions were estimated from release rate constants that were obtained via timed collection of volatiles in the gas phase and quantifications by dynamic headspace-gas chromatography. The partition coefficients increased as the carbon chain increased within each homologous series. Overall, no significant difference was found between partition coefficients of aldehydes in water and in pectin solutions except for 2-methyl-propanal and butanal that showed higher K values when pectin was present. Furthermore, the diffusional properties of the model system with a constant pectin level (0.4% w/w) remained constant when the viscosity was increased from 0.001 to 150 Pa s. It was concluded that neither pectin nor alterations in macroscopic viscosity as such influenced the release of aldehydes from the pectin-thickened food model system.  相似文献

Plastic packaging materials are often associated to aroma losses and to a decrease of the organoleptic quality of foods. This work defines situations where, on the contrary, plastics play a regulating role on the concentration of reactive aroma compounds in foods. These systems can be described by a two step mechanism; first, aroma is sorbed in the polymer, while the fraction in solution degrades quickly; in a second step, as the concentration is close to zero in the solution, the polymer liberates progressively the sorbed aroma back to the food. A simple numerical model is proposed, describing competitive processes of aroma degradation in solution and sorption by a polymer in contact with a homogeneous aqueous food. The classical limonene/low density polyethylene (LDPE) system is studied experimentally for the validation of the model: in an acidic medium, limonene both degrades quickly and is sorbed quickly, with a large solubility in LDPE. To define which aroma packaging systems could also display this interesting behavior, all types of possible interactions, using thermodynamic and kinetic parameters describing most practical situations, are simulated. For that purpose, 35 values of reference diffusion coefficients and 35 partition coefficients of usual aroma compounds between polymers and water have been measured and combined with the few available data from literature. The situations where polymers regulate the aroma concentration in food correspond to large partition coefficients (above 10), large diffusion coefficients (>10(-9) cm2 x s(-1)), and large degradation constants.  相似文献

Single-sided NMR sensors such as the NMR-MOUSE have been very successfully implemented for quality control applications in the rubber and polymer industries. More recently, single-sided NMR was also applied in characterization of the fat components in foods. Both industrial polymers and the fat components in food exhibit relatively low self-diffusion coefficients on the order of 5x10(-11) m2/s or lower. The application of conventional single-sided NMR to highly mobile, watery phases in foods and beverages is hampered by the strong magnetic field gradient present in standard single-sided NMR devices. In this contribution, we present both a single-sided NMR sensor with a reduced magnetic field gradient and another ("semisingle-sided") sensor design with an open sample bay using a single-sided RF coil. The latter design allows much better sensitivity without sacrificing the necessary open access needed for measurements on entire food packages such as bottles. As a first application, the sensors were used for determining the oxygen content in bottles with superoxygenated table water.  相似文献

Liquid-state NMR spectroscopy was used to follow the compositional changes in mango juice during ripening, whereas MAS and HR-MAS techniques enabled resolved (13)C and (1)H NMR spectra of mango pulps to be recorded. Spectral assignment enabled the identification of several organic acids, amino acids, and other minor components, and the compositional changes upon ripening were followed through the changes in the spectra. In pulps, sucrose was found to predominate over fructose and glucose at most ripening stages, and citric acid content decreased markedly after the initial ripening stages while alanine increased significantly. Other spectral changes reflect the complex biochemistry of mango ripening and enabled the role played by some compounds to be discussed. Some differences observed between the composition of juices and pulps are discussed. This work shows that NMR spectroscopy enables the direct characterization of intact mango pulps, thus allowing the noninvasive study of the overall biochemistry in the whole fruit.  相似文献

The apparent bulk phosphate self-diffusion coefficient, resin extractable and isotopically exchangeable phosphate were measured on an acid Cecil sandy loam soil pre-treated with calcium carbonate and monocalcium phosphate. Apparent diffusion coefficients increased four-fold with a five-fold increase in phosphate addition, but were not increased by liming. Resin extractable phosphate was greater than isotopically exchangeable after large phosphate additions. Calculated porous self-diffusion coefficients did not change as a result of phosphate additions. The contribution of solid-phase phosphate to diffusion was small and close to the limits of measurement.  相似文献
