Abstract
Two kinds of corn cob arabinoxylans (AX) were treated with xylanase to obtain the corresponding enzymatic arabinoxylans (AXe), and their effects on the quality of hanging noodles and potential prebiotic activities were studied. AX and AXe influenced the quality of hanging noodles by altering the secondary structure and conformation of gluten proteins as well as the interactions between proteins. Compared to the control group, AX improved the hardness of hanging noodles by 27.15 %–49.74 %, whereas 6 % AXe reduced the hardness of hanging noodles by 12.05 %–20.63 % and reduced chewiness by 14.36 %–19.53 %. Both AX and AXe enhanced the tolerance of probiotics to acidic conditions and bile salts. However, the digested product of AXe showed a more significant promotion of probiotic growth compared to AX. Notably, 2 % AXe did not significantly affect the quality of hanging noodles (P > 0.05), but its digestive products maintained good potential prebiotic activity. This study provides a valuable reference for the development of specialized dietary foods incorporating AX.
期刊介绍:
LWT - Food Science and Technology is an international journal that publishes innovative papers in the fields of food chemistry, biochemistry, microbiology, technology and nutrition. The work described should be innovative either in the approach or in the methods used. The significance of the results either for the science community or for the food industry must also be specified. Contributions written in English are welcomed in the form of review articles, short reviews, research papers, and research notes. Papers featuring animal trials and cell cultures are outside the scope of the journal and will not be considered for publication.
