Abstract
This study explores salted duck egg white (SDEW) as a protease inhibitor and gel enhancer in surimi, comparing its efficacy with hen egg white powders. SDEW exhibited superior trypsin inhibition (53–54%) than hen egg white powders (37–49%), likely due to ovomucoid, ovoinhibitor, and duck ovostatin. During two-step heating, at 40 °C preincubation, storage modulus (G′) declined, but at trypsin activity of 50–60 °C, SDEW-powder achieved the highest G′ values. The low TCA-soluble peptide content (1.48–1.52 μmol tyrosine g–1) in surimi with SDEW confirmed protease inhibition, comparable to commercial hen egg white powder (CHEP). Above 70 °C, SDEW improved gel elasticity, disulfide bond formation, and water entrapment (13–15% expressible moisture), achieving gel strength of 630–665 g cm, surpassing CHEP (524 g cm), and approaching premium-grade surimi (>600 g cm). Microstructural analysis revealed a denser gel network, highlighting SDEW-powder as a viable hen egg white substitute for surimi gelation and quality enhancement.
本研究探讨了咸鸭蛋蛋白(SDEW)作为鱼糜蛋白酶抑制剂和凝胶增强剂的作用,并比较了其与蛋清粉的效果。SDEW对胰蛋白酶的抑制作用(53-54%)优于鸡蛋清粉(37-49%),这可能是由于卵泡样蛋白、卵泡抑制剂和鸭卵泡抑制素。在两步加热过程中,预培养温度为40°C时,储存模量(G′)下降,但在胰蛋白酶活性为50-60°C时,sdew -粉末的G′值最高。经SDEW处理的鱼糜具有较低的tca可溶性肽含量(1.48 ~ 1.52 μmol酪氨酸g-1),证实对蛋白酶有抑制作用,与市售鸡蛋清粉(CHEP)相当。在70°C以上,SDEW改善了凝胶弹性、二硫键形成和水夹带(13-15%可表达水分),凝胶强度达到630-665 g cm,超过CHEP (524 g cm),接近优质鱼糜(600 g cm)。微观结构分析显示出更致密的凝胶网络,突出表明SDEW-powder是可行的蛋清替代鱼糜凝胶和提高质量。
