Abstract
Pulse proteins are promising components for plant-based food development, yet their diverse subunit compositions, influenced by source origin, result in variable extrusion properties. This study utilized high moisture extrusion (60% moisture content) to prepare extrudates from four pulse proteins: soy, pea, chickpea and mung bean protein isolates (SPI, PPI, CPI, and MPI, respectively). The texture, structure, and in vitro digestion characteristics of extrudates were examined. The results showed that SPI and PPI were mainly composed of 7S and 11S globulins, while CPI and MPI were mainly composed of 7S globulins, and 11S globulins, respectively. SPI extrudates exhibited significantly lower hardness, chewiness, and transverse and longitudinal fracture stresses, while CPI extrudates exhibited a higher anisotropy index. SPI extrudates with a higher β-sheet content (39.08%) exhibited denser structures. The gastrointestinal digestibility (86.65%) of CPI extrudates was higher than other groups. Correlation analysis showed that 7S/11S ratio was positively correlated with the melt viscosity, while negatively correlated with the anisotropy index and in vitro digestibility. This study highlights the distinct extrusion properties of pulse proteins based on their unique subunit composition. The results provide insights for selecting appropriate protein sources and developing plant-based protein products with tailored textural attributes and desirable digestibility.
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.
