Abstract
The synergistic effect of polysaccharides plays a crucial role in regulating the foaming properties of protein based aerated foods. In this study, the synergistic improvement mechanism of pea protein isolate (PPI)-sodium alginate (SA) composite on the foaming performance was determined through multi-component interaction, air/water interface adsorption behavior and foam properties. The results of interactions between PPI and SA indicated that SA and PPI could form smaller and more stable soluble composite through hydrogen bonding, hydrophobic interactions, and electrostatic interactions. The α-helix content of PPI significantly decreased, and PPI exhibited a more flexible secondary structure. In depth research on the air/water interfacial behavior and interfacial microstructure through adsorption kinetics, surface dilatational rheology and Lissajous plots indicated that the PPI-SA composite could accelerate the adsorption process, constructing a highly viscoelastic interface mainly based on elasticity. The results of foam properties showed soluble PPI-SA composite could prepare smaller and more dense foam with thicker and smoother interface film, which was beneficial to the foam stability. The results of small amplitude oscillatory shear and large amplitude oscillatory shear suggested that foam prepared by soluble PPI-SA composite showed stronger ability to resist deformation whether in linear or nonlinear viscoelastic region, revealing the good mechanical properties of these foam under extreme processing conditions and feasibility to improve the quality of aerated food. When the mass ratio of PPI/SA was 1:0.3, the foam properties was strongest. When the mass ratio of PPI/SA exceeded 1:0.3, insoluble substances appeared in the composite system, which was disadvantageous to foam properties and deformation resistance. Therefore, the complexation of PPI and SA was an effective way to improve the air/water interface and foaming properties of PPI, providing theoretical guidance for targeted regulation of the foaming properties of protein based aerated foods.
期刊介绍:
Food Hydrocolloids publishes original and innovative research focused on the characterization, functional properties, and applications of hydrocolloid materials used in food products. These hydrocolloids, defined as polysaccharides and proteins of commercial importance, are added to control aspects such as texture, stability, rheology, and sensory properties. The research's primary emphasis should be on the hydrocolloids themselves, with thorough descriptions of their source, nature, and physicochemical characteristics. Manuscripts are expected to clearly outline specific aims and objectives, include a fundamental discussion of research findings at the molecular level, and address the significance of the results. Studies on hydrocolloids in complex formulations should concentrate on their overall properties and mechanisms of action, while simple formulation development studies may not be considered for publication.
The main areas of interest are:
-Chemical and physicochemical characterisation
Thermal properties including glass transitions and conformational changes-
Rheological properties including viscosity, viscoelastic properties and gelation behaviour-
The influence on organoleptic properties-
Interfacial properties including stabilisation of dispersions, emulsions and foams-
Film forming properties with application to edible films and active packaging-
Encapsulation and controlled release of active compounds-
The influence on health including their role as dietary fibre-
Manipulation of hydrocolloid structure and functionality through chemical, biochemical and physical processes-
New hydrocolloids and hydrocolloid sources of commercial potential.
The Journal also publishes Review articles that provide an overview of the latest developments in topics of specific interest to researchers in this field of activity.
