Enhancement of the rice protein solubility using industry-scale microfluidization and pH cycling: A mechanistic study
Rice protein has attracted attention as a functional ingredient in foods and beverages due to its high abundance, low cost, hypoallergenicity, and good nutritional profile, but its large-scale commercial application is currently limited due to its poor solubility. In this study, a combination of industry-scale microfluidizer system and pH (ISMS-pH) cycling to improve the water dispersibility of rice protein was investigated. This process was found to increase the dispersibility of a commercial rice protein ingredient from around 1.4 to 78.3%. Morphological analysis showed that the microfluidization-alkaline treatment reduced the particle size of the rice protein aggregates. In addition, the molecular weight and disulfide bond content of the proteins decreased after processing, while the intrinsic fluorescence intensity and surface hydrophobicity increased. Secondary structure analysis showed that some of the β-sheet structure was converted into α-helix structure by processing. The ISMS-pH cycling process also enhanced the functional attributes of the rice proteins, including their emulsification and foaming properties. In summary, we have shown that rice protein ingredients with high water dispersibility can be produced on an industrial scale and have provided valuable insights into the mechanisms underlying their improved functionality. This research may therefore lead to new approaches for creating functional rice protein ingredients for commercial applications in the food and other industries.
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.
