In this study, pectin (PEC) and pea protein isolate(PPI) was successfully used to create complexes as a novel delivery system for pterostilbene (PT). When the mass ratio of PEC to PPI was 0.5, the particle size and ζ-potential of PPI-PEC-PT were 119.41 ± 5.68 nm and -23.26 ± 0.61 mV, respectively, and the encapsulation efficiency (EE) of PT was 90.92 ± 2.08%. The photochemical stability of PT was enhanced after encapsulation. The results of the molecular docking and multispectral analysis demonstrated that the PPI and PT binding was spontaneous and mostly fueled by hydrophobic interactions. The hydrophobicity of PPI was significantly decreased and the emulsification activity and emulsion stability were significantly improved after production with PEC and PT. The best emulsification impact was demonstrated by the PPI-PEC-PT complex. PPI-PEC is an effective PT delivery material, and the PPI-PEC-PT complex is a new functional emulsification material with significant potential in liquid and semi-liquid food and health products.

Cleaning-in-place (CIP) is the most commonly used cleaning and sanitation procedure for removing fouling deposits. Traditional CIP includes a series of chemical cleaning cycles, including alkaline, acid, and sanitizer. However, these chemicals are hazardous to the environment and employees.

Rhizobia and legumes form a symbiotic relationship resulting in the formation of root structures known as nodules, where bacteria fix nitrogen. Legumes release flavonoids that are detected by the rhizobial nodulation (Nod) protein NodD, initiating the transcriptional activation of nod genes and subsequent synthesis of Nod Factors (NFs). NFs then induce various legume responses essential for this symbiosis.

Starch-rich faba bean, yellow lentil, and yellow field pea flours were subjected to submerged fermentation using Aspergillus oryzae and Lactobacillus plantarum starter mono- or co-cultures, to increase protein contents of the flours. Fermentation mixes were supplemented with up to 35 g/L urea, ammonium sulfate and/or monoammonium phosphate as nitrogen sources. Protein contents of the flours increased 2-2.

This study aims to develop rapid and non-invasive methods based on near-infrared hyperspectral imaging and chemometrics for quantitative prediction of chemical compositions of pea-derived products. Hyperspectral imaging was used to acquire images from pea processing streams, namely pea flour, pea protein concentrate, and pea protein isolate. The PLS algorithm was used to develop quantitative prediction models based on the relationship between the hyperspectral image data and the chemical compositions of the pea products, including moisture, protein, ash, insoluble fiber, and total starch.

It is well known that individual pea ( L.) cultivars differ in their symbiotic responsivity. This trait is typically manifested with an increase in seed weights, due to inoculation with rhizobial bacteria and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi.
