Chiffon cakes prepared with a mixture of wheat flour / konjac flour / soy protein isolate (SPI) (89.5 : 0.5 : 10 ) together with replacement of 50-70% soybean oil with water were investigated for their physicochemical and sensory properties. Moisture and protein content in reduced-fat chiffon cakes were significantly higher (p < 0.05) than the control chiffon cake. Specific volume decreased (p ...

Soy-based products consumed in Asian countries are minimally processed whereas in the USA many of the soy foods and soy ingredients are highly processed. Soy foods contain complex mixtures of bioactive compounds, which may interact with one another. The objective of this study was to evaluate the ability of various soy products containing genistin, the glycoside form of genistein, to affect gro...

The purpose of this study was to determine trypsin inhibitor (TI) activity in sweetpotato and soy flour diets and their effects on the growth and lipid metabolism of hamsters. Male Golden Syrian hamsters were fed different types of dietary protein containing casein, soyprotein, transgenic sweetpotato plus soy flour (TSPF+SF), nontransgenic sweetpotato (NTSPF) plus soy flour (NTSPF+SF), transgen...

The objective of the present work is to compare some different crop products such as protein isolates and defatted whole flours from legumes, as chickpea and soy bean, involved in the molded compression processing to obtain plastics. The present work analysed the possibility of forming new plastic materials with products of chickpea, and soy bean seeds typically from the North West of Argentina...

Soybean is the second largest acreage crop in the United States (29%), right after corn (35%) according to the American Soybean Association [1]. Soybean is widely consumed in the world, particularly in Asian countries. The various soybean products could be separated in‐ to non-fermented and fermented soybean products. The non-fermented soybean products include soymilk, tofu, yuba, soybean sprou...

Biotransformation of isoflavones glycosides into the aglycone form is essential to attain the maximum bioavailability. The factors affecting deglycosylation of genistin in soy flour using commercial β-glucosidase enzyme were evaluated. The presence of genistin in soy flour was confirmed by isolation through chromatographic fractionation and identification by spectral method. Two-levels Plackett...

Over 90% of phytic acid has been removed from full-fat soy flour by a lipid-protein concentrate process previously reported in 1974 by the Northern Regional Research Center. In the current study, parameters for optimizing phytic acid removal were evaluated. By changing both the molar concentration of the calcium chloride solution used and the pH of the initial acid slurry, various amounts of ph...
