Abstract
Abstract Well-known as a food additive, glucomannan has excellent biocompatibility and biodegradability properties. However, glucomannan is easily gelled, which limited its use in high concentration. To reduce the gel formation ability of glucomannan, acetylation was conducted. This work aims to study the effect of acetylation on physicochemical properties of glucomannan. Acetylation was performed in heterogeneous system which glucomannan was immersed in ethanol (96%) with various concentrations of glucomannan (5-25%) and acetic acid (5-99%). This modified glucomannan was subsequently used as an encapsulation matrix for producing iron beads. The results showed that higher concentration of acetic acid in acetylation impacted on higher solubility and viscosity of glucomannan. The transmittance intensity of Infrared (IR) spectra and morphology of glucomannan were changed due to the acetylation and encapsulation process. The highest viscosity of the matrix (484.33 cP) led to the highest Encapsulation Yield (EY) (53.3%). Gompertz’s model fitted to describe the release profile of iron in all samples (R2>0.92) that showed the burst phenomena in the initial release. This work found that acetylated glucomannan had higher solubility and has a potency to protect the iron taste during oral consumption as it releases slower in neutral pH solution.
期刊介绍:
The Brazilian Journal of Food Technology (BJFT) is an electronic rolling pass publication with free access, whose purpose is to publish unpublished articles based on original research results and technological information that significantly contribute to the dissemination of new knowledge related to production and evaluation of food in the areas of science, technology, food engineering and nutrition (non-clinical). Manuscripts of national or international scope are accepted, presenting new concepts or experimental approaches that are not only repositories of scientific data. The Journal publishes original articles, review articles, scientific notes, case reports, and short communication in Portuguese and English. The submission of a manuscript presupposes that the same paper is not under analysis for publication in any other divulging vehicle. Articles specifically contemplating analytical methodologies will be accepted as long as they are innovative or provide significant improvement to existing methods. It is at the discretion of the Editors, depending on the subject relevance, the acceptance of works with test results of industrialized products without the information necessary to manufacture them. Papers aimed essentially at commercial propaganda will not be accepted.
