Regulation of ice crystal growth in frozen dough: From the effect of gluten and starch fractions interaction on water binding - A review.

The formation and growth of ice crystals are critical factors affecting the quality of frozen dough. Gluten and starch are the primary components of dough, and their hydration properties and effects on dough structure are crucial in determining the type of ice crystals formed. Gliadins, glutenins, A-type starch, and B-type starch are their refined components, each with distinct hydration properties and impact on dough structure.

Deciphering structure-rheological properties relationship via the studies of 11 s-rich and 7 s-rich soy protein isolate.

Rheological properties influence the velocity gradient in the die passage of the extruder and the formation of fibrous structure of plant protein. The rheological properties of 11 s-rich (11 s-RI) and 7 s-rich (7 s-RI) soy protein fractions prepared at a pilot scale were studied to explore their potential in the production of extruded textured proteins. The results showed that compared to 7 s-RI, 11 s-RI exhibited larger particle sizes, lower solubility, lower water holding capacity of insoluble protein, and lower net surface charge in aqueous solutions.

Research progress on non covalent interaction dissolution characterization of insoluble wheat protein based on swelling.

The non covalent interactions of proteins are usually characterized by solubility, which is based on the principle that specific solvents can disrupt non covalent interactions and promote protein dissolution. However, this method is generally applicable to highly soluble protein materials. The solubility of wheat protein is poor.

Increasing Carotenoid Bioaccessibility from Yellow Peppers Using Excipient Emulsions: Impact of Lipid Type and Thermal Processing.

Many phytochemicals from fruits and vegetables exert biological activities that may be beneficial to human health, but these benefits are not fully realized because of their poor oral bioavailability. The objective of this research was to establish the potential of excipient emulsions to increase carotenoid bioaccessibility from raw and cooked yellow peppers using a gastrointestinal model that included oral, gastric, and intestine phases. The influence of oil type (medium chain triglycerides, MCT; long chain triglycerides, LCT; and, indigestible orange oil, OO) on microstructural changes, particle properties, lipid digestibility, and carotenoid bioaccessibility was investigated.

AMP-activated protein kinase attenuates oxLDL uptake in macrophages through PP2A/NF-κB/LOX-1 pathway.

The differentiation of macrophages into lipid-laden foam cells is a hallmark in early-stage atherosclerosis. The developmental role of adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) in a transformation of foam cells, especially in macrophage cholesterol uptake that remains undetermined. Here we demonstrate that AMPK activation in response to IMM-H007 or AICAR resulted in a decrease in macrophage cholesterol uptake and thus inhibited foam cell formation in macrophages mediated by oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL).
