Improvement of functional properties of acid-precipitated soy protein by the attachment of dextran through Maillard reaction

The functional acid-precipitated soy protein (SAPP)–dextran conjugate was prepared by dry-heated storage at 60 °C under 79% relative humidity (RH) for 5 days through Maillard reaction between the ε-amino of lysine in soy proteins and the reducing-end carbonyl residue in the dextran. The covalent attachment of dextran to SAPP was confirmed by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and gel filtration chromatography. Functional properties of soy protein depend on the structural and aggregation characteristics of their major components (storage globulins 7S and 11S). The conjugate seemed to be predominantly formed by 7S, and the acidic subunits of 11S in soy protein. The emulsifying properties of the SAPP–dextran conjugate were about four times higher than those of SAPP. The solubility of the protein was not enhanced as a result of preheating, but rather it was not decreased when the conjugated protein was heated at 90 °C for 20 min due to the presence of the polysaccharide. The excellent emulsifying properties of SAPP–dextran conjugate were maintained even at pH 3.0 and were further improved at pH 10.0. The object of Maillard reaction is to guarantee the suitable reaction degree, and the resulting soluble conjugate can have excellent emulsifying properties.     

Formation of acid‐precipitated soy protein–dextran conjugates by Maillard reaction in liquid systems

The conjugation reaction between soybean acid‐precipitated protein (SAPP) and dextran in liquid systems via the initial stage of the Maillard reaction was studied. Functional SAPP–dextran conjugates were prepared in 80% ethanol‐reacting system at 50 °C for 6 h, along with 95% ethanol‐reacting system at 60 °C for 24 h. The covalent attachment of dextran to SAPP was confirmed by sodium dodecyl sulphate–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and gel filtration chromatography.Compared to the classical dry‐heating, the reaction time of glycosylation in the two ethanol systems was largely shortened. Emulsifying activity of SAPP–dextran conjugates obtained by dry‐heating incubation and in ethanol was similar at pH 7.0 and10.0, significantly higher than that of SAPP–dextran mixture or SAPP alone. In addition, SAPP–dextran conjugates obtained in 80% ethanol‐reacting system for 6 h were completely soluble after heating at 90 °C for 20 min. The impact of various processing conditions on the formation of SAPP–dextran conjugates was investigated. This study provides important guidance to create protein–polysaccharide conjugates at mild temperatures in liquid systems.     

Vibrio parahaemolyticus in granulated ark shell clam (Tegillarca granosas): accumulation from water and survival during cold storage and thermal process

This study investigated accumulation of Vibrio parahaemolyticus in granulated ark shell clam (Tegillarca granosas) exposed to contaminated water and survival of V. parahaemolyticus in the clams during cold storage and heating processes. Vibrio parahaemolyticus could be accumulated in clams to a level similar to that of contaminated water within 12 h of exposure of clams to contaminated water at temperatures between 9 and 33 °C. Keeping clams stored at 5 and 0 °C for 10 days resulted in 1.98 and 2.32 log MPN g^?1 reductions of V. parahaemolyticus, respectively, in the clams. Frozen storage at ?18 °C for 15 days or at ?30 °C for 30 days were capable of reducing V. parahaemolyticus from 4.05 log MPN g^?1 to non‐detectable levels (< 3 MPN g^?1). A heating process in hot water at 80 °C or higher for 1 min also reduced V. parahaemolyticus in the clams to non‐detectable levels.     

嘉兴市经营环节海产品中砷的形态分布与膳食暴露风险评估

目的 了解嘉兴市经营环节海产品中砷的形态分布情况，评估食用海产品暴露的砷对人体的健康风险。方法 采用液相色谱-电感耦合等离子体质谱联用技术（HPLC-ICP-MS）对嘉兴市经营环节中采集的5种共105份海产品样品总砷及砷形态污染情况进行检测，结合嘉兴市居民水产品消费数据，对食用海产品带来的无机砷暴露的健康风险进行分析。结果 105份样品中，5种海产品中总砷平均含量范围为0.85~41.85 mg/kg，主要以无毒的砷甜菜碱或砷糖为主，有机砷含量占总砷的90%以上。无机砷的检出率为45.7%，检出浓度范围为0.015~1.169 mg/kg，中位值为0.011 mg/kg，含量较高的海产品主要为海藻类、甲壳类，其中1份样品高于GB 2762—2022的水产品限量值，超标率为0.95%。暴露边界比值（MOE）健康风险分析结果表明，嘉兴市居民食用海产品的健康风险较低（MOE值均远大于1），城市居民风险程度略高于农村居民，女性风险程度略高于男性。结论 嘉兴市居民食用一般海产品暴露的无机砷引起的健康风险较低，但要避免长期大量摄入无机砷较高的海产品（海藻类、甲壳类）。

Effect of the combination of various NaCl levels and soy protein isolate on the quality characteristics of smoked pork loins

The objectives of this study were to evaluate the physicochemical, textural and sensory properties of smoked pork loins (PL) containing various levels of NaCl (0.0–2.0%) alone or in combination with soy protein isolates (SPI; 1.0%). The pH values, moisture, fat, and protein contents (%) of smoked PL were 5.97–6.17, 63.3–69.1%, 2.64–4.26%, and 20.2–26.6%, respectively. Increased NaCl levels increased moisture contents (%) and sensory scores, as well as reduced Hunter redness and yellowness and cooking loss (CL, %) (P < 0.05). A NaCl level of 1.0% had resulted in a CL (%) level similar to those at regular‐salt levels (1.5% and 2.0% NaCl). When 1.0% SPI was incorporated with smoked PL, the NaCl level of 0.5% was also similar to the CL (%) at higher NaCl levels and improved sensory scores. Thus, a NaCl level of at least 1.0% was required for the manufacture of smoked PL; however, smoked PL could be manufactured with 0.5% salt when 1.0% SPI was included as part of the manufacture of smoked PL to effect quality characteristics similar to those achieved with regular‐salt (1.5% and 2.0% NaCl) smoked PL.

Thermal denaturation of soy proteins as related to their dye-binding characteristics and functionality

The binding of Cresol Red and of Acid Orange 10 (in the absence and presence of urea) to unheated and progressively heated, defatted soy meal was compared with their NSI values, urease activities,in vitro digestibilities, unreactive lysine contents, and foaming and emulsifying capacities. These results suggested that increased amounts of Cresol Red and of Acid Orange 10 (in the presence of urea) bound to the heated samples were due to the progressive exposure of hydrophobic residues caused thermal denaturation. High statistical correlations were obtained between dye-binding, the duration of heating, and functional properties. Our results indicate that dye-binding has potential for predicting certain functional properties as well as for monitoring thermal denaturation of soy proteins.     

Soy Protein Fortification Affects Sensory, Chemical, and Microbiological Properties of Dairy Yogurts

ABSTRACT: Chemical, microbiological, and sensory properties for low fat yogurts fortified with 0,1, 2.5, or 5% soy protein concentrate were determined through 1 mo storage at 5 °C. Yogurts were adjusted to equivalent total solids with nonfat dried milk. Microbiological counts, fermentation time, and final developed acidity were not affected by soy protein. Instrumental viscosity and sensory thickness, soy aroma, and soy flavor increased with soy protein addition (P 0.05). Soy flavor and aroma did not increase with storage time. Yogurt with 5% soy protein was darker, more chalky, and less sweet compared to control yogurt or yogurts with lower concentrations of soy protein (P 0.05). Yogurts with 1 or 2.5% soy protein were most similar to control yogurt.
