Raw beef burgers containing graded levels (0.25, 0.5, 0.75, and 1.0%) of polysaccharide gums extracted from Detarium microcarpum (DM) and Mucuna flagellipes (MF) were produced. Unstabilized beef burgers and beef burgers containing gum tragacanth (TR) were also produced simultaneously to serve as control. The raw beef burgers were evaluated for selected physicochemical and sensory properties so as to assess the stabilization potentials of DM and MF polysaccharide gums relative to the conventional TR. Beef burgers containing the polysaccharide gums had significantly (P<0.05) lower shrinkage, higher water holding capacity (WHC), and better stability under ambient conditions (27±1°C and RH 90.6%) then the unstabilized burgers. Among the stabilized burgers, DM gum burgers had lower (P0.05) shrinkage and higher WHC than MF and TR gums burgers. All the gum-stabilized beef burgers required 9–26% higher compression force indicating a less friable product than the unstabilized burgers. At 0.25 and 0.5% levels of gum incorporation DM gum burgers had comparable compression force with TR gum burgers and this was lower (P0.05) than the compression force of MF gum burgers. Sensory panel results indicated a lower score for finger feel in gum-stablized burgers than the unstabilized burgers. DM and TR gum burgers had comparable scores with TR gum burgers in all the sensory attributes tested. Overall acceptability score showed that all the gum-stabilized beef burgers were acceptable. It was evident from the study that polysaccharide gums from DM and MF seeds can serve as effective stabilizers in beef burgers without adverse effect on the quality of the product.  相似文献

Defatted pumpkin (C. pepo andC. maxima) seed flour has potential food uses because of its high protein content, 61.4±2.56%. The functional and electrophoretic properties of the defatted flour were investigated. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and electrofocusing indicated 14 bands of water-soluble protein subunits with isoelectric points between 3.81–8.08 and apparent molecular weights between 19,200 and 97,000 daltons. Minimum nitrogen solubility was observed at pH values between 3.0–7.0 and exceeded 90% at pH above 9.0. Solubility was a function of ionic strength. It appeared that, even at the pH of minimum solubility, the pumpkin seed proteins could be dissolved up to high concentrations by increasing NaCl molarity. The viscosity of flour-water dispersion was affected by flour and salt concentrations, and temperature. The least gelation concentration was 8% (w/v) and the water and oil absorption 24.8±2.03 and 84.4±4.05 g/100 g respectively. Sorption isotherms, BET monolayer moisture and binding energy of sorption were also calculated. Both foam capacity and stability were pH dependent.  相似文献

African breadfruit seeds were cleaned, parboiled (98 °C) for 15min, drained and dehulled. The kernels were sun-dried, then milled andsieved into flour. Nitrogen solubility (NS), water absorption capacity(WAC), emulsion activity (EA), viscosity, foaming and emulsifyingproperties of the flour were determined as functions of pH and NaClconcentration. The NS was pH dependent with a minimum at pH 4 andmaximum at pH 10. The flour also exhibited minimum and maximum foamcapacity at pH 4 and 10, respectively. The minimum emulsion activity wasat pH 4, a value which increased from 7–16% at pH 12. The addition ofNaCl at concentrations of 0.2 to 0.4 M improved WAC, NS, foamingand emulsion properties of the flour. Sodium chloride enhanced NS of theflour at pH 4–6 and EA at pH 2–8.The EA at pH 2, 10 and 12 correlated negatively (r = –0.30) with NaClconcentration levels; however, the correlation was not significant (p> 0.05). The flour dispersions had lower viscosities at acid pH and in thepresence of NaCl than at neutral and alkaline pH values. Results indicatedthe flour could be used in food product supplementation.  相似文献

The proximate composition, energy content and physiochemical properties ofAfzelia africana andBrachystegia eurycoma seeds were determined. The bulk density, reconstituability, foam properties and emulsification properties of flour samples in water, 1% saline and 1% alkali were studied. There were no significant differences (p0.05) in the proximate composition of seeds from different agroclimatic zones. The energy content of seeds were comparable to that of other legume seeds (5.7 kcal/g forA. africana and 4.5 kcal/g forB. eurycoma seeds). Foam properties ofB. eurycoma seeds were found to be better than that ofA. africana seeds in terms of foam volume and stability. Emulsification properties ofB. eurycoma seeds were also found to be better thanA. africana seeds suggesting thatB. eurycoma seeds would be more efficient in food systems requiring the formation of stable foams and emulsions. Protein solubility in alkali was found to be better than in water and in 1% saline. The bulk densities and reconstitution indices of flour samples from the two seeds were found to be similar.  相似文献

The influence of guar and xanthan gum and their combined use on dough proofing rate and its calorimetric properties was investigated. Fusion enthalpy, which is related to the amount of frozen water, was influenced by frozen dough formulation and storage time; specifically gum addition reduced the fusion enthalpy in comparison to control formulation, 76.9 J/g for formulation with both gums and 81.2 J/g for control, at 28th day. Other calorimetric parameters, such as Tg and freezable water amount, were also influenced by frozen storage time. For all formulations, proofing rate of dough after freezing, frozen storage time and thawing, decreased in comparison to non-frozen dough, indicating that the freezing process itself was more detrimental to the proofing rate than storage time. For all formulations, the mean value of proofing rate was 2.97 ± 0.24 cm3 min−1 per 100 g of non-frozen dough and 2.22 ± 0.12 cm3 min1 per 100 g of frozen dough. Also the proofing rate of non-frozen dough with xanthan gum decreased significantly in relation to dough without gums and dough with only guar gum. Optical microscopy analyses showed that the gas cell production after frozen storage period was reduced, which is in agreement with the proofing rate results.  相似文献

Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder caused by intolerance to gluten, which is found in wheat and similar proteins in barley, rye and oats. The present study was designed to examine the effects of the addition of gums, whey protein concentrate, dry egg, and water to corn and cassava starches on the rheological properties of a non-fermented dough used for the production of “empanadas” (a traditional meal in Latin América) and pie-crusts suitable for people with celiac disease. A 24 full factorial design was chosen. Viscoelastic measurements and texture analysis (puncture and elongation tests) were performed. The increase in gums content and the decrease in water level produced an increase in both moduli (G′ and G″) and a more elastic dough was obtained. Higher protein contents interfered with the formation of the three-dimensional gum network making the dough less ductile. Texture analysis led to similar conclusions to those obtained by dynamic rheological analysis. Formulations containing higher percentages of gums and lower water content led to an appropriate behavior for industrial production of these doughs.  相似文献

Gum powder was extracted from the stem and root of the cissus (Cissus populnea Guill and perr Ampelidacae) plant using water. Extraction was facilitated by the incorporation of 25–50% edible starches of sweet cassava, sweet potato, and maize. Dry samples were milled and sieved through a 250-m sieve. Proximate and physicochemical properties of the gum samples were determined using standard methods. Results of the proximate analyses showed that protein and ash contents of the root gum were appreciably higher than those of the stem gum. Values of the crude fiber and ether extract of the root gum were lower than those of the stem gum. Inclusion of edible starches in the extraction process appreciably lowered proximate values. Results of the physicochemical properties showed that cissus gum samples did not form true gel but a putty-like mass. Addition of starches at various levels did not alter the characteristic putty-like nature of the gum. The gum samples had a remarkably low oil absorption capacity. Cissus gum samples had appreciably higher emulsion capacity and stability than the samples containing starch. The pH of the cissus gum powder and those of the starch-containing samples lie in the low-acid range (5.69–6.49). Cissus gum samples were highly hygroscopic; however, the addition of starch lowered the hygroscopicity. Incorporation of 25% starch into cissus mucilage enhanced extraction of the gum without adverse alteration of the physicochemical properties.  相似文献

Proso millet (PM) is a gluten-free cereal grain with potential to be used in gluten-free product development. However, research on improving the rheological properties of PM dough is limited. In the present study, rheological and color characteristics of PM dough (37% moisture) were compared with the behavior of wheat dough. Three hydrocolloids [guar gum (GG), xanthan gum (XG) and sodium alginate (SA)] at concentrations of 0%, 1% and 2% were added to improve the physical properties of PM dough. The textural properties of PM dough developed pasta with hydrocolloids were also studied. Wheat dough presented a much higher apparent viscosity and elastic modulus than PM dough. Both the apparent viscosity and elasticity were increased by all three hydrocolloids, with 2% XG presenting the most pronounced improvement in elasticity. Generally, the capacity of hydrocolloids to improve the PM dough follow the order XG > GG > SA. The addition of hydrocolloids showed no significant impact on the color of PM dough. GG and XG showed an improvement in the network strength of PM pasta, while SA did not contribute to textural enhancement.  相似文献

Lesquerella is a potential new seed crop that contains hydroxy fatty acid triglycerides and approximately 15% seed coat gums. The polysaccharide gum of the Lesquerella fendleri seed was isolated and jet-cooked with cornstarch in a series of laboratory experiments to investigate the viscoelastic properties of gum-modified starch solutions. The Lesquerella gum was combined with cornstarch at 1, 5, and 10% levels to produce a jet-cooked and drum dried material with potential application as a thickening or suspension agent. Flow curves were determined for 1% solutions of jet-cooked starch and gum combinations. All materials investigated were biodegradable and exhibited positive thixotropic behavior.  相似文献

Flour was prepared from seeds ofAfzelia africana dehulled by different treatments and used to replace 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50% wheat flour in biscuits and doughnuts. The composition and water and oil absorption properties of the flour blends were evaluated. The biscuits and doughnuts made from each flour blend were evaluated organoleptically. The composite flour containing the highest proportion (50%) ofA. africana seed flour contained the highest levels of protein and fat, exhibited the highest water absorption property but the lowest oil absorption capacity. Sensory scores showed high overall acceptability for products with a 10–30% level of substitution.  相似文献

Chemical and functional properties of unprocessed (raw) and locally processed seeds ofBrachystegia eurycoma, Detarium microcarpum andMucuna sloanei that affect their utilization as sources of human food were investigated. The seeds, which are underutilized food sources in Nigeria, were subjected to local processing methods which included roasting, boiling, dehulling/shelling, soaking and the changes in composition and functional properties were estimated. Chemical analyses showed that the crude protein contents of the raw seeds ranged from 12.2 to 23.2%; fat varied from 4.9 to 12.0%. The level of phytic acid in the raw seeds (192.4–215 mg/100 g) was observed to be lower than the levels found in some commonly consumed pulses in Nigeria. There were no significant differences (p>0.05) between crude protein contents and the least gelation concentrations of the raw and processed samples, but processing (roasting, boiling, dehulling and soaking) significantly (p=0.011) improved in vitro protein digestibility, water and fat absorption capacity and decreased the bulk density, nitrogen solubility and the phytic acid and polyphenol contents of the samples. Processed samples had high water (3.4–3.8 g/g) and fat (1.8–2.1 g/g) absorption capacities and hence may be useful as functional agents in fabricated foods such as bakery products and ground meat formulations.  相似文献

Cereal β-glucans in diet and health   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
The native mixed linkage β-glucan of cereals is classified as a soluble dietary fibre, with rheological properties generally similar to guar gum and other random coil polysaccharides. The ability of oat and barley products to attenuate postprandial glycemic and insulinemic response is related to content of (1→3)(1→4)-β-d-glucan (β-glucan) and viscosity. A role of viscosity of β-glucan has not been directly demonstrated for lowering of serum cholesterol levels, and not all studies report a statistically significant lowering. The wide range of effectiveness reported may partially be explained by the properties of the β-glucan in the diets used, as well as the dose.  相似文献

Okpiye is a food condiment prepared by the fermentation ofProsopis africana seeds. The traditional process for the production and microbiological characteristics of the condiment were investigated. During laboratory fermentation that lasted 96h, the mesquite seeds underwent a natural fermentation that was characterised by the growth of microorganisms to 106–108 cfu/g. Several species of bacteria especiallyB. subtilis, B. licheniformis, B. megaterium, Staphylococcus epidermidis andMicrococcus spp were found to be the most actively involved organisms. However, significant contributions to the microbial ecology were made byEnterobacter cloacae andKlebsiella pneumoniae. Lactobacillus spp were present in low numbers towards the end of the fermentation. The presence ofProteus andPseudomonas spp in traditional fermented samples demonstrate the variability which may exist in the microflora of individual fermented samples. Variations in the important microbial groups show thatBacillus spp were the most prevalent species and occurred until the end of fermentation. Temperature, pH and titratable acidity varied with time and were influenced by the metabolic activities of the microorganisms.  相似文献

With the view of preparing semi-liquid weaning foods of high energy content, the influence of roasting (stationary hot air treatment) and fermentation (with natural and pure culture inocula) on the viscosity of maize-sorghum-soya porridges was investigated. Roasting resulted in porridges of significantly higher viscosity (cooked porridge cooled to 40 °C). Porridges made from the individual ingredients (maize, sorghum, soya) did not show this behaviour. Natural fermentation of mixed ingredients resulted in lower porridge viscosities (cooked porridge cooled to 40 °C, as well as hot-paste peak viscosity) when pH was 5.0–5.5. At lower pH the viscosity of the final porridges increased. Fermentation experiments of individual ingredients inoculated with pure cultures ofLactobacillus plantarum andCandida famata lead to the conclusion that various factors contribute to the effect of fermentation on porridge viscosity. Porridges of minimum viscosity are obtained at pH 5.0–5.5 corresponding with a moderate extent of fermentation. From a consumer safety point of view, it would be preferable to acidify to lower pH values (pH<4.5). If necessary, viscosity adjustments could be made using malted cereals.  相似文献

The aim of the present study was to evaluate some chemical and mineral characteristics and functional and rheological properties of Canna and Arrowroot starches produced in the Venezuelan Andes. Canna starch showed a higher (P < 0.05) moisture, ash, and crude protein content than arrowroot starch, while crude fiber, crude fat, and amylose content of this starch were higher (P < 0.05). Starches of both rhizomes own phosphorus, sodium, potassium, magnesium, iron, calcium, and zinc in their composition. Phosphorus, sodium, and potassium are the higher in both starches. Water absorption, swelling power, and solubility values revealed weak bonding forces in Canna starch granules; this explained the lower gelatinization temperature and the substantial viscosity development of Canna starch during heating. Arrowroot starch showed a higher gelatinization temperature measure by DSC, than Canna starch and exhibited a lower value of ΔH. Both starches show negative syneresis. The apparent viscosity of Canna starch was higher (P < 0.05) than the Arrowroot starch values. The size (wide and large) of Canna starch granules was higher than arrowroot starch. From the previous results, it can be concluded that Canna and Arrowroot starches could become interesting alternatives for food developers, depending on their characteristics and functional properties.  相似文献

Oat and barley β-glucans are polysaccharides known for their beneficial effects on glycemia and cholesterol. These physiological effects seem to be related to increased viscosity in the digestive tract. It has recently been shown that free radicals derived from the reaction of ascorbic acid and oxygen can cause a viscosity loss in β-glucan due to depolymerization through the Fenton reaction. However, recent studies have reported a synergistic effect between xanthan gum and β-glucan on viscosity in heat-treated fruit juices. Therefore, the objective of this study was to determine if xanthan gum has a protective effect against OH radical-induced depolymerization of β-glucan by ascorbic acid. Oat β-glucan (0.4%) solutions were studied in water at pH 4. Ascorbic acid concentrations and viscosity profiles were measured over a period of 56 days. The addition of ascorbic acid caused a rapid decrease in β-glucan viscosity. The presence of xanthan gum reduced the viscosity loss (p ≤ 0.0001) but did not provide complete protection for β-glucan over time. Therefore, incorporation of β-glucan in food formulations still presents a challenge in ensuring its physical and nutritional stability in the final product. The use of OH radical scavengers such as sugars and antioxidant compounds could be used in addition to xanthan gum to obtain improved protection.  相似文献

One of the possible ways to improve the utilisation of defatted Brazil nut kernel flour, a by-product of oil extraction industries, is to improve its functional properties by chemical modification as it possesses very modest functional characteristics. Succinylated Brazil nut kernel globulin at 55.8%, 62.4% and 72.0% level showed a positive effect on functionality. The solubility of acylated globulin was improved above pH 4.0 butwas reduced in the pH range of 3.0-4.0. Water absorption (1.96-4.00, 4.12, and 4.21 ml/g protein), oil absorption capacity (1.44-2.72, 2.80 and 2.94 ml/g protein) and apparent viscosity of the succinylated globulin increased with increase in the level of succinylation. The extent of modi-fication also influenced emulsifying capacity, which showed a decrease at pH 3.0, but was increased at pH 5.0, 7.0 and 9.0. Highest emulsion activity (approximately 63.0%) was observed at pH 3.0, followed by pH 9.0 and pH 7.0 and, least (about 11.8%) at pH 5.0. Emulsion stability also followed similar behaviour as that of emulsion activity. The improved functional properties of succinylated Brazil nut kernel globulin could be explored in a variety of food formulations such as high protein drinks, soups, bakery and meat products as well as in salad dressings and mayonnaise as an emulsifier.  相似文献

African breadfruit (Treculia africana Decne) seeds were either boiled or roasted and then milled into flour. Chemical composition, functional properties and storage characteristics of raw and treated flours and the effect of partial proteolysis on selected functional properties of the raw flour were determined. Raw flour contained 20.1% crude protein, 2.5% total ash and 13.7% fat. Heat processing significantly (p<0.05) improved in vitro protein digestibility, and water and fat absorption capacities but decreased bulk density, nitrogen solubility, emulsion and foaming properties, trypsin inhibitor, and phytic acid and polyphenol contents of the samples. Boiling proved more effective than roasting for improving protein digestibility, emulsion capacity and foam stability and reducing antinutritional factor levels. Partial proteolysis increased nitrogen solubility, bulk density and water and fat absorption capacities but decreased foam capacity at hydrolysis levels greater than 35%. Fatty acid and peroxide values of the samples increased during storage. Compared to raw samples, heat processed samples had significantly (p<0.05) lower and more acceptable peroxide values and free fatty acid contents and higher and more stable water (3.0 g/g sample) and fat (2.4 g/g sample) absorption capacities.  相似文献

Eight lactic acid bacteria (LAB) strains isolated from five naturally fermented silages of different ensilage materials on the Tibetan Plateau were characterized, and their effects on the silage quality of common vetch (Vicia sativa L.) were studied. These LAB isolates were evaluated using morphological, physiological and biochemical tests. The eight isolated strains and one commercial inoculant (Lactobacillus plantarum MTD‐1) were subsequently added to common vetch for ensiling 60 days. All the isolated strains (LW4, M1, WG27, O30, I2, LCG3, LCG9, CG35) could grow normally at 5–20°C, pH 3.5–6.0 and NaCl (3.0%, 6.5%), and they were identified as Lactobacillus plantarum and Pediococcus pentosaceus by sequencing 16S rDNA. All the LAB inoculants improved the silage quality of common vetch, indicated by significantly (< .05) higher lactic acid (LA) contents and ratios of lactic acid to acetic acid (LA/AA), and significantly (< .05) lower pH and ammonia nitrogen (NH3–N) contents. Strain LCG3 performed best among all LAB inoculants, indicated by the highest (< .05) LA content and ratio of LA/AA, and the lowest (< .05) pH and NH3–N content. Strain LCG3 is recommended as starter culture for common vetch silage.  相似文献
