Animal-derived protein foods, such as meat, have a large impact on the environment. Meat analogues are products that replace meat in its functionality, i.e. similar product properties and sensory attributes, which is achieved by fibrous nature of those products. The techniques used to make mimic muscle meats outlined categorized based their approach. bottom-up approach refers assembly structural elements combined. top-down structuring biopolymer blends using an overall force field. strengths...
Pea protein isolate can be combined with wheat gluten into materials a fibrous morphology using shear induced structuring heating. Results are partly in-line soy isolate-wheat blends, but the latter yields anisotropic in much broader temperature range. Both blends also have ability to include air. Air bubbles were aligned and deformed at process conditions that gave most pronounce products. Mechanically, pea protein-gluten processed 140 °C had similar strength as blends. At 110 120 °C, was...
The proteinaceous material present in β-lactoglobulin fibrils formed after heating (20 h at 85 °C) pH 2 was identified during this study. Fibrils were separated from the nonaggregated material, and dissociated using 8 M guanidine chloride 0.1 1,4-dithiothreitol (pH 8). Characterization of different fractions performed thioflavin T fluorescence, high-performance size-exclusion chromatography, reversed-phase HPLC, mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF). β-Lactoglobulin found to be hydrolyzed into...
Long, fibrillar semiflexible aggregates were formed from soy glycinin and protein isolate (SPI) when heated at 85 °C pH 2. Transmission electron microscopy analysis showed that the contour length of fibrils was ∼1 µm, persistence 2.3 thickness a few nanometers. Fibrils SPI more branched than glycinin. Binding fluorescent dye Thioflavin T to β-sheets present in fibrils. The presence resulted an increase viscosity shear thinning behavior. Flow-induced birefringence measurements behavior under...
Abstract The rich phase behavior of granular beds bidisperse hard spherical particles in a rotating horizontal drum is studied by Discrete Element Method (DEM) simulations. Several flow regimes and various forms radial segregation, as well mixing, are observed systematically varying the operational parameters drum, i.e. fill level angular velocity, over wide range. Steady states after several dozen revolutions summarized two bed diagrams, showing strong correlations between regime...
Nanoporous graphene based materials are a promising nanostructured carbon for energy storage and electrosorption applications. We present novel facile strategy fabrication of asymmetrically functionalized microporous activated electrodes high performance capacitive desalination disinfection brackish water. Briefly, thiocarbohydrazide coated silica nanoparticles intercalated sheets used as sacrificial material creating mesoporous followed by alkaline activation process. This procedure meets...
A facile method was developed to establish milling settings that optimally separate starch granules from protein bodies and cell wall fibres for starch-rich legumes. Optimal separation obtained pea, bean, lentil chickpea when the particle size distribution curve of flour isolated overlap maximally. This outcome based on scanning electron microscopy, content fine fraction curves. Milling differed between legumes due variances in seed hardness granule size. The legume specific as well could be...
Spray drying is a mild and cost-effective convective method. It can be applied to stabilise heat sensitive ingredients, such as enzymes probiotic bacteria, albeit in industrial practice for example freeze or freezing are often preferred. The reason that optimum conditions tailored matrix formulations required avoid severe damage leading loss enzyme activity reduced survival of bacteria. An overview provided on the use protective carbohydrate-rich spray probiotics. Subsequently, single...
A closed cavity rheometer was employed to assess the properties of concentrated protein materials before, during and after thermal treatment, using conditions that are relevant production meat analogues. Pea soy isolate wheat gluten were used as model matrices. The analysis done Lissajous curves, both for small large amplitude oscillatory shear deformation. energy dissipation ratios based on enclosed area inside curves characterize plasticity materials. results show modulus increases heating...
