将马铃薯淀粉分别与瓜尔胶和黄原胶以一定的比例复配,探讨两种胶体对马铃薯淀粉黏度、热稳定性、凝沉性、冻融稳定性和质构特性等糊化特性的影响。结果表明:瓜尔胶提高了淀粉糊的黏度和冻融稳定性,降低了淀粉糊的热稳定性、凝沉性、硬度、黏附性、胶黏性和咀嚼性;而黄原胶增加了淀粉糊的热稳定性和冻融稳定性,但降低了糊的黏度、凝沉性、硬度、黏附性、胶黏性和咀嚼性;且随着两种胶体含量的不同淀粉糊化特性也不同。      

鱼种和亲水胶体对鱼糜制品凝胶性质的影响

考察了添加复合亲水胶体对鲢鱼、带鱼、金线鱼等鱼糜制品凝胶特性的影响。结果发现,添加亲水胶体后,带鱼鱼糜制品凝胶强度从58.38 g·cm提高至107.27 g·cm,金线鱼鱼糜制品从328.68 g·cm下降至137.55 g·cm,但鲢鱼鱼糜制品没有明显变化。另一方面,添加亲水胶体后鱼糜制品的硬度、粘结性、咀嚼性等发生下降,但水分含量、持水性、蒸煮吸水率均有显著提高。而且,添加亲水胶体后带鱼鱼糜制品中肌球蛋白重链的降解受到一定的抑制。SEM结果发现亲水胶体可以填充到带鱼和鲢鱼鱼糜制品中,但在金线鱼鱼糜凝胶结构中容易形成胶体块状,导致凝胶强度下降。

Morphological, structural, and functional properties of maranta (Maranta arundinacea L) starch

Starch isolated from maranta (Maranta arundinacea) tuber and studied for its various physicochemical characteristics. The amylose content of the starch was 24.8%. SEM showed that the granules were small indented and spherical. Maranta starch granule size has a range of 2.92–6.42 μm, (mean of 4.84 μm), length/degree of 1.20, and roundness of 0.73. Maranta starch has a gelatinization temperature of 74.8°C, peak viscosity of 498 BU, and cold paste viscosity of 669 BU. It also possessed higher freeze-thaw stability. Dynamic rheological properties of maranta starch, measured using parallel plate geometry showed increased storage modulus (G’) values, while loss modulus (G″) values were decreased with increasing frequency values (0–100 Hz). The low gelatinization temperature and high freeze thaw stability of starch indicates its potential for application as a thickener in food industries.     

Rheological properties of cereal starch gels and Mesona Blumes gum mixtures

The effect of Mesona Blumes gum (MBG) was examined on steady and dynamic shear of MBG/rice starch and MBG/wheat starch gels. In addition, stress relaxation and creep tests were performed for two types of cereal starch gels. The flow curves of both MBG/starch gels exhibited pseudoplastic behavior at shear rates between 0.01 and 10 s⁻¹, and the data were fitted into the power law model (R² = 0.91–0.98). Dynamic mechanical spectrum showed that all gels were strong gels in frequency between 0.1 and 10 Hz. Stress relaxation data at different strains indicated a strain‐softening phenomenon for both gels. Data were fitted into Maxwell model (R² = 0.91–0.98). Creep curves were conducted at the shear stress 6.4 Pa within linear viscoelastic region of both MBG/starch gels. Data were fitted into Burgers model (R² = 0.91–0.98). Apparent viscosity η, storage moduli G′, equilibrium stress relaxation modulus G_e and zero apparent viscosity η₀ of MBG/rice starch gels decreased in the following order: 6/0>6/0.5>6/0.35>6/0.1 (starch/gum w/w). Whereas η, G′, G_e, and η₀ of MBG/wheat starch gels increased gradually along side the increase of MBG contents. The stress relaxation time λ of MBG/rice starch gels increased in the following order: 6/0<6/0.5<6/0.35<6/0.1 (starch/gum w/w) while λ of MBG/wheat starch gels decreased gradually with the increase of MBG level. The influence of MBG on two examined cereal starch is totally opposite.     

Thermal and rheological properties of tapioca starch gels with and without xanthan gum under cold storage

Changes in the thermal and rheological properties of tapioca starch (TS) with and without xanthan gum (Xan) (total polysaccharide concentration = 25% w/w) were investigated using a differential scanning calorimeter, Rheolograph Gel and Texture Analyser. The gelatinization temperatures of TS shifted to higher values with the Xan concentration. Xan enhanced the retrogradation of TS during the initial stage of storage but retarded the process for a further storage time at 5 °C. The onset temperature of all reheated TS/Xan gels decreased with increasing storage time indicating thermally unstable structure formation after a longer storage time. Storage Young’s moduli (E′) of the TS and TS/Xan gels stored at 5 °C increased with increasing storage time. The E′ values became more temperature dependent with storage time due to the weak cross-linkage of amylopectin molecules in the gels but became less dependent in the system containing Xan. TS/Xan gels kept for 14 days showed lower Young’s moduli than TS gels from the compression test confirming retardation of the retrogradation process by Xan. The results suggested that Xan could retard the retrogradation of TS gels for longer storage times.     

Rheological properties of batter systems containing different combinations of flours and hydrocolloids

The rheological properties of batters formulated using different combinations of wheat, corn, and rice flours with two types of hydrocolloids, namely methylcellulose (0.5%, 1% and 1.5%) or xanthan gum (0.2%), were studied. Control samples were formulated with combinations of flours without the added hydrocolloids. The effects of hydrocolloids on rheological characteristics of the batter systems were measured using a controlled stress rheometer at a temperature of 15 °C. The effects of hydrocolloids on dynamic viscoelastic parameters as functions of temperatures were evaluated. All the batters showed shear thinning behaviour with flow behaviour indices in the range 0.34–0.67. Addition of xanthan gum lowered the flow index values, imparting a higher degree of pseudoplasticity to the batter samples compared to methylcellulose. The consistency index of the control batter samples varied from 0.46 to 69.2 Pa sⁿ. Addition of xanthan gum or methylcellulose significantly increased the batter consistency index value. The gums changed the onset temperature of structure development, and the storage (G′_max) and loss moduli (G″_max) of the batter systems. However, no statistically significant effects were observed on the peak temperature of batter systems in which the G′ reached a maximum value. Xanthan gum increased both G′_max and G″_max, whereas at higher concentrations methylcellulose increased G′_max but lowered G″_max. Copyright © 2007 Society of Chemical Industry     

Comparison of 3D printed and molded carrots produced with gelatin,guar gum and xanthan gum

This study examined the effects of different hydrocolloids (guar gum, xanthan gum and gelatin) on the sensory and textural properties of pureed carrots. There were eight products involved in the study; 3D printed carrots and molded carrots without the addition of gums and with guar gum, xanthan gum and gelatin. All products were evaluated using trained panelists (n = 12) and underwent a texture profile analysis. No significant differences were found between the molded and 3D printed pureed carrots; instead, the samples were grouped based on the gum used in their production. The samples made with gelatin and xanthan gum were the hardest (texture profile analysis) and the densest samples when evaluated by the trained panelists. The 3D printing did not affect the taste properties of the pureed carrots, as they were evaluated to be similar to that of the molded carrots (p > .05). This study demonstrated that 3D printing did not affect the textural and sensory properties of pureed carrots when compared to molded carrots. However, changes in the printing parameters (infill percentage, nozzle diameter, flow rate, nozzle height) need to be evaluated to determine their effect on the sensory properties of 3D printed pureed carrots.     

Influence of sucrose on thermal and pasting properties of tapioca starch and xanthan gum mixtures

Sugars and hydrocolloids are used in starch-based product formulations during processing for improving the final quality of foods. Effect of sucrose (0–30%) on thermal and pasting properties of 5% w/w tapioca starch (TS) – xanthan gum (Xan) mixtures was investigated using differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), rapid visco-analyser (RVA) and rheometer. Sucrose increased gelatinization temperatures and enthalpies of TS and TS/Xan dispersions. RVA pasting temperatures, peak viscosity, final viscosity, breakdown and setback values of TS/Xan mixtures increased with increasing sucrose concentration (p < 0.05). Addition of sucrose in all TS/Xan pastes increased the rate of viscosity breakdown during RVA heating under constant shear and temperature. Setback values of TS/Xan pastes increased with sucrose addition but decreased significantly with increasing Xan content. Xan enhanced thermal stability of steady shear viscosities to TS pastes with and without sucrose. Linear regression from pasting profile revealed a good relationship for predicting final viscosity. These results could facilitate the development of TS-based products with improved thermal and pasting properties.     

Preparation of resistant starch from starch–guar gum extrudates and their properties

Mixtures of starch, guar gum and citric acid were extruded at a temperature of 150 °C and screw speed of 180 rpm. Properties of the extrudates such as bulk density, expansion ratio, apparent viscosity and resistant starch content were measured with different concentrations of guar gum. Extrusion with citric acid influenced the physical properties and resistant starch content of the extrudate. Expansion ratios were lower for samples extruded with citric acid, and decreased as starch–gum concentration increased. The apparent viscosity of the extrudate increased with increasing guar gum concentration; however, citric acid at 2.0% concentration was found to lower the viscosity of the extrudate. Resistant starch content increased from 6.23% for extruded starch only to 14.21% for starch–gum extrudate, and further enhanced to 16.19% with the addition of 2.0% citric acid to the starch–gum extrudate. Resistant starch increased with increase of gum concentration and decreased with increase of starch–gum concentration from 7.5% to 12.5%.

The effect of electrostatic interactions on pasting properties of potato starch/xanthan gum combinations

The effects of electrostatic interactions on pasting properties of potato starch (PS)/xanthan gum (XG) combinations were investigated. The RVA peak viscosity of combinations was decreased firstly and then increased with the adding of XG. The analysis and regression model performance of RVA measurement showed that there was the relationship between pasting properties of combinations and XG concentrations. Electrostatic repulsions between native potato starch or anionic modified potato starches (AP) and XG could be present by decreasing peak viscosity, but the pasting temperatures showed increasing trend. However, electrostatic attractions between cationic modified potato starch (CP) and XG showed the opposite effect. Negative zeta potential determination for combinations (− 54.6 mv) was higher than PS (− 35.2 mv) illustrated that combinations had more electronegativity and stability, in addition a phase-separated microstructure was exhibited in the combinations determined by Zeta potential results. SEM micrographs presented that XG film attached to the surface of PS granules, which inhibited the starch granules destruction and leaching of amylase. The electrostatic repulsion leaded to more stability of the three dimensional network structures of combinations. The strong electrostatic interactions between PS and XG were found to play an important role on the pasting properties of the combinations.     

刺云实胶与黄原胶复配体系质构及流变性研究

将总浓度为1%的刺云实胶(TG)与黄原胶(XTG)按照不同的质量比复配,采用质构仪和流变仪对复配体系的凝胶特性和流变学特性进行测定,通过Carreau模型对流动曲线进行拟合分析,并利用电子扫描显微镜分析复配体系网络形成机理。结果表明:在质构分析中TG与XTG质量比为64时有最大的凝胶强度;在流变分析中TG与XTG质量比为64时呈现最大表观黏度并且在频率扫描和温度扫描中表现出最大的储能模量(G′)。因此,TG与XTG的最佳复配比例为质量比64。在pH为5～10时,最佳复配比例体系的黏度保持相对稳定;当添加盐离子(Na+、Ca2+)后,体系黏度降低,Ca2+降低的趋势更为显著。通过电子扫描显微镜(SEM)分析,表明在TG与XTG之间存在明显的协同增效作用,可形成良好的凝胶网络结构。     

Effect of modified tapioca starch and xanthan gum on low temperature texture stability and dough viscoelasticity of a starch-based food gel

This work investigated the effect of modified tapioca starch and xanthan gum on dough viscoelasticity and texture stability during storage at 4 °C of starch sheets for Chinese shrimp dumplings. Hydroxypropylated starch and hydroxypropylated-crosslinked starch were used to substitute for tapioca starch in the control formulation, and xanthan gum was added to adjust the formulation. During storage, texture of the control became firmer due to amylopectin retrogradation confirmed by differential scanning calorimetry and X-ray diffraction. Conversely, gel sheets containing modified starches showed less texture change. Dough viscoelasticity of the formulations substituted by hydroxypropylated starch were much softer and easier to deform than that of the control one. Dough with hydroxypropylated-crosslinked starch was, however, stiffer and more strain-resistant. Moreover, the formulation comprising the mixture of both types of modified starches and xanthan gum gave dough viscoelasticity similar to that of the control, and provided gel sheet the least texture change. Consequently, this modified formulation could be beneficial for the application of frozen/chilled dumpling wrappers.     

Mechanical properties of pea starch films associated with xanthan gum and glycerol

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of the addition of xanthan gum and glycerol to the starch of green pea with high content of AM (cv. Utrillo) in the preparation of films and their physical characteristics. Filmogenic solution (FS) with different levels of pea starch (3, 4, and 5%), xanthan gum (0, 0.05, and 0.1%), and glycerol (glycerol–starch ratio of 1:5 w/w) were studied. The FS was obtained by boiling (5 min), followed by autoclaving for 1 h at 120°C. The films were prepared by casting. Films prepared only with pea starch were mechanically resistant when compared to other films, prepared with corn, cassava, rice, and even other pea cultivars (yellow, commercial). The tensile strength of these films is comparable to synthetic films prepared with high‐density polyethylene and linear low‐density polyethylene. However, they are films of low elasticity when compared to other films, such as rice starch films, and especially when compared to polyethylene films. The increased concentration of starch in the solution increased the puncture force. The increased concentration of glycerol slightly decreased the film crystallinity and interfered in the mechanical properties of the films, causing reduction of the maximum values of tensile strength, strain at break, and puncture force. The plasticizer also caused an increase of elongation at break. Xanthan gum was important to formation of films; however, it did not affect their mechanical properties.     

Oleogel production based on binary and ternary mixtures of sodium caseinate,xanthan gum,and guar gum: Optimization of hydrocolloids concentration and drying method

We report the optimization of oleogel formulation based on sodium caseinate (CN, 0–4 g/100 g), xanthan gum (XG, 0–1 g/100 g), guar gum (GG, 0–1 g/100 g), and drying method (freeze and oven drier) using response surface methodology to achieve the desired oil binding capacity, textural, and rheological attributes. All the selected responses were successfully fitted by a quadratic model with determination coefficient values higher than .95 with the exception of firmness values which was fitted by linear model. There were considerable increases in all the responses for the samples containing ternary mixtures of protein-gum (CN:XG:GG) as well as binary mixtures (CN:GG and CN:XG) compared to samples containing protein or gums alone due to the synergistic effect of CN and gums on formation of highly ordered and strong gel network. Regression modeling demonstrated that freeze drying method led to significantly greater structure recovery values than those of oven drying method. The best formulation was the freeze dried oleogel containing 4 g/100 g CN, 0.43 g/100 g XG, and 0.98 g/100 g GG. Results showed that fabrication of oleogels with at least 94.5 g/100 g sunflower oil and characteristics similar to industrial shortening is feasible.
