Dual-frequency ultrasound, an innovative technique for enhancing oats germination to improve nutritional and functional properties
This study examined the impact of multi-frequency ultrasound treatments (20, 35, 50 kHz, and their combinations) on oat germination, nutritional composition, and functional properties. Relative to the control group, which did not receive ultrasound treatment, dual-frequency ultrasound at 20/50 kHz significantly reduced germination time and enhanced the length of roots and shoots by 74.51 % and 46.88 %, respectively. In addition, the activities of key enzymes, including alpha-amylase and phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL) respectively increased by 80.49 % and 50.91 %. These enzymatic changes not only facilitated the degradation of phytic acid and suppressed tannin synthesis, but also promoted a 33.32 % increase in phenolic compound accumulation, thereby augmenting antioxidant capacity. Furthermore, ultrasonic treatment improved emulsification properties and emulsion stability by 11.49 % and 218.75 %, respectively. These findings indicated that dual-frequency ultrasonic pretreatment is a promising and effective method for improving the quality and performance of germinated whole oat flour.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Cereal Science was established in 1983 to provide an International forum for the publication of original research papers of high standing covering all aspects of cereal science related to the functional and nutritional quality of cereal grains (true cereals - members of the Poaceae family and starchy pseudocereals - members of the Amaranthaceae, Chenopodiaceae and Polygonaceae families) and their products, in relation to the cereals used. The journal also publishes concise and critical review articles appraising the status and future directions of specific areas of cereal science and short communications that present news of important advances in research. The journal aims at topicality and at providing comprehensive coverage of progress in the field.
