Abstract
Retarding starch retrogradation is essential for developing food products with desirable qualities. The inhibitory effects of three proteins on rice starch (RS) retrogradation, as well as the effects of soybean isolate protein (SPI), pea isolate protein (PPI) and whey isolate protein (WPI) through competitive hydration related to the content of polar amino acids (WPI > PPI > SPI:66 % > 64 %>61 %), have been systematically revealed by using multiscale characterization techniques; a molecular weight-dependent physical barrier effect (The molecular weight of WPI is small and distributed between 10 and 70 kDa); the formation of rice amyloid protein V complexes and competitive hydration advantages and high solubility properties of WPI through hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions were the most effective in inhibiting the short-range ordered structures (6.00 %, 7.04 %) and the long-range crystalline network (16.79 % after 1 day and 7 days, respectively and 24.62 %) were most effective. In contrast, SPI, with the largest molecular weight but higher content of hydrophobic groups, had a better complex-binding ability than PPI, which resulted in a hierarchical relationship of inhibition effect of WPI > SPI > PPI. The concentration effect study showed that the inhibition of rice starch retrogradation by the proteins was positively correlated with the amount of protein added, but the synergistic effect tended to saturate once the protein concentration exceeded 15 %. This study explored the mechanisms by which three common exogenous proteins prevent rice starch retrogradation, offering a theoretical foundation for using plant or animal proteins to control the texture and shelf-life of starch-based 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.
