In this study, six types of amino acids (Ala, Phe, Glu, Gly, Ser, and Lys) were combined with glucose to produce Maillard reaction products (MRPs) named G-Ala, G-Phe, G-Glu, G-Gly, G-Ser and G-Lys. The effect of MRPs on bread staling was evaluated through texture and sensory analyses during storage. Furthermore, the study comprehensively analyzed the anti-staling mechanisms of MRPs by examining moisture content, starches, and gluten network changes. The results indicated that G-Gly and G-Glu delayed bread staling, with G-Gly showing the most significant effect. Compared with control, the staling rate and starch crystallinity of G-Gly bread decreased by 24.07% and 7.70%, respectively. Moreover, G-Gly increased the moisture content (3.48%), weakly bound water mobility (0.77%), and α-helix content (1.00%) of bread. Component identification and partial least squares regression further confirmed the aldonic acid, heterocyclic acids and heterocyclic ketones in MRPs inhibit water evaporation, gluten network loosening, and starch degradation, thereby delaying bread staling.

Hardness constitutes one of the primary performance indices of bread. However, there is scarce literature regarding the study of the mechanisms of increased hardness in different breads. In this paper, the hardness and retrogradation rates of five popular brands of bread (DaliGarden, Mankattan, MianLunSi, TOLY, and ZhengMao) in China during storage at room temperature were determined, and the mechanism of increased hardness was revealed by the results in terms of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), disulfide bonds, C solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), X-ray diffraction, and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC).

Building up from our previous findings on deep eutectic solvents (DES) as reaction promoters for the acetylation of pure wheat starch, the current work explored combinations of reaction time, temperature and acetic anhydride: bread molar ratios to acetylate macromolecules within bread particles relying solely on macromolecule solvation and the slightly basic environment provided by the eutectic mixture. High degree of substitution with acyl groups (DS, 0.73-1.

Using the statistical approaches, the optimization of amylase production by a newly Bacillus strain was achieved. Keeping the insignificant factor at lower levels and following the optimized condition (inoculum size 0.3; 19 h of incubation; 18 g L of starch; 4 g L of MgSO; and 15 g L NaCl) the amylase activity has reached 18.

To retard starch retrogradation and improve bread quality, a novel maltotetraose-forming amylase (AhMFA) from Atopomonas hussainii was expressed in Komagataella phaffii. After high cell density fermentation, the enzyme activity reached a maximum level of 3032 U mL. AhMFA showed optimal activity at pH 6.
