Modification mechanism of protein in rice adjuncts upon extrusion and its effects on nitrogen conversion during mashing.

The traditional production of wort with adjunct-introduced was achieved by double mashing procedure, which hindered the utilization of proteins in adjunct and led to a deficiency of nitrogen in wort. In this study, the modification mechanism of the extrusion pretreatment on the structure characterization of rice flour protein was investigated. The decoction mashing procedure was performed to enhance the nitrogen conversion of the extruded rice adjunct.

Microencapsulated procyanidins by extruding starch improved physicochemical properties, inhibited the protein and lipid oxidant of chicken sausages.

Microencapsulated procyanidins by extruding starch (MPS) were used in meat and meat products as an antioxidant for their simple production process and high stability. This study investigated the controlled released properties of MPS and their effect on antioxidant capacity, physicochemical properties, and sensory qualities of chicken sausages during 4°C storage within 28 days. Antioxidant capacity, particle size analysis, and simulated digestion in vitro demonstrated that microencapsulation by extruding starch delayed the procyanidins release.

Effect of ultrasound-assisted dough fermentation on the quality of dough and steamed bread with 50% sweet potato pulp.

Ultrasound at an intensity of 17.5, 20.0, 22.

Bioconversion of Apple Pomace into Microbial Protein Feed Based on Extrusion Pretreatment.

Apple pomace (AP) is often used directly as animal feed, while the value of feeding is limited by its low protein content. In this study, extrusion pretreatment was performed for AP, and further fermentation was carried out to improve its nutrition value. Strains suitable for extruded apple pomace (EAP) to produce high-quality microbial protein (MP) feed were screened from 12 different strains.

Influence of emulsifiers and enzymes on dough rheological properties and quality characteristics of steamed bread enriched with potato pulp.

The aim of this study was to evaluate whether processing characteristics of steamed bread enriched with potato pulp could be improved through the addition of different emulsifiers (soy lecithin-Soy L, sodium stearoyl lactate and diacetyl tartaric esters of monoglyceride) and enzymes (glucose oxidase-GOX and transglutaminase). Results showed that separate addition of each emulsifier at 1% concentration or each enzyme at 1.5 U/g could increase the viscoelasticity and strength of potato pulp dough due to enhancement of gluten network.
