Oat emulsion gels and oil-free oat gels were formulated with varying proportions of oat bran/olive oil (from 12/40 to 28/0) without or with alginate or gelatin used as animal fat replacers and/or to provide β-glucan and MUFA for meat products. Composition, technological properties (thermal stability, colour, texture, etc.) and the effects of chilled and frozen storage of samples were evaluated. Depending on the proportion, samples developed for use as animal fat replacers in meat products may endow these with properties qualifying them for nutrition and health claims. No samples showed any noticeable syneresis and all showed good thermal stability. Increasing of oat bran/olive oil increased a* and reduced b* values, while differences in L* depended on the gelling agent. Penetration force (PF) and gel strength increased when the oat bran/oil ratio increased, with the highest values in the samples containing alginate or gelatin. Thermal losses and PF generally increased during chilled and frozen storage, and no significant differences were observed in colour or pH over storage.

Comprehensive Sensory Evaluation in Low-Fat Emulsions: A Systematic Review of Diverse Food Applications.
Food Sci Nutr
January 2025
The prevalence of diet-related health issues has driven the demand for healthier food options, particularly those with reduced fat content. This systematic review evaluates the integration of sensory analysis in low-fat emulsion research, highlighting a significant gap in current practices. From an initial pool of 400 articles, 227 unique studies were screened, but only 15 (6.

Background/objectives: In response to concerns about high-fat and low-fiber diets, this study modified a traditional brownie recipe by replacing butter with plant-based ingredients, including sweet potatoes, red beans, beetroot, zucchini, pumpkin, lentils, and spinach. The goal was to increase vegetable consumption while identifying the best vegetable fat replacer using sensory and instrumental analyses.
Methods: Chemical analyses were conducted to measure dry matter, protein, fat, ash, and dietary fiber, alongside texture, color, and sensory evaluations.

Starch is among the most abundant natural compounds in nature after cellulose. Studies have shown that the structure and functions of starch differ extensively across and among botanical types, isolation procedures, and climate factors, resulting in starch with significant variations in its chemical, physical, morphological, thermal, and functional characteristics. To enhance its beneficial properties and address inherent limitations, starch is modified through various techniques, resulting in significant alterations to its chemical and physical characteristics.

Sustainable alternatives to high environmental input feed ingredients are important to reducing the environmental impact of animal agriculture. Protein and oil extracted from cultivation of black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens) larvae (BSFL) on waste feedstocks such as manure, food waste and plant residues could be a suitable source of nutrients. The oil from BFSL contains large amounts of saturated fatty acids, particularly lauric acid, and may be a more sustainable alternative to palm and coconut oils that are currently used in calf milk replacers in many parts of the world.
