The objective of the present research was to develop cinnamon oil nanoemulsions using soy protein isolate and lecithin as food grade natural emulsifiers. For this purpose, stable cinnamon oil nanoemulsion (droplet diameter of 141.2 nm) prepared by ultrasonic emulsification. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and the minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) of free and nanoemulsified cin...

BACKGROUND Diet is a major factor influencing the composition and metabolic activity of the gut microbiota. OBJECTIVE This study investigated the effect of soy compared with dairy protein on the gut microbiota of hamsters to determine whether changes in microbiota could account for soy protein's lipid lowering properties. METHODS Thirty-two 6- to 8-wk-old, male Golden Syrian hamsters were f...

in view of the importance environmental pollution caused by plastic food packaging, in recent years there is a considerable interest in edible films and coating based on polysaccharides, proteins, lipids or combination of them. edible coatings also serve as carriers of food additives such as anti-browning and antimicrobials agents, colorants, flavor, nutrients and spices, so act as active packa...

Vacuum and temperature effects on moisture content, water vapor permeability (WVP), color (L, a, b, and DE), tensile strength (TS), elongation (E), and total soluble matter (TSM) of soy protein isolate (SPI) films were examined. SPI films were cured at 60, 72.5, or 85 °C and at 101.3, 81.32, or 61.32 kPa for 24 h. As a result of heat-curing moisture content, WVP, E, and TSM decreased, and total...

There has been a growing interest in meat analog, microstructure characteristics, and anti-nutritional content obtained from soybean. High-moisture extrusion parameters are the input extruder of moisture (>40%) that get advantages lower energy input. Thermo-mechanical treatment considerable influence on structural properties soy-based analog. Texturized soy proteins can substitute products w...

Conformations of soy proteins in protein isolate (SPI) aqueous dispersions determine the processability SPI and are affected significantly by pH conditions addition a plasticizer, when mechanical forces present. In this work, effect chemical facilitating physical treatment modifying conformational structures was investigated. H2O system under extreme glycerol/H2O subjected to combination ultras...

Chronic Energy Deficiency (CED) in pregnant women can be caused by direct and indirect factors. The lack of energy protein intake during pregnancy has been proven to increase the risk CED women. purpose this study was analyze differences acceptability organoleptic properties panelists, as well nutritional content cookies based on Modified Cassava Flour with soy isolate substitution. conducted e...
