The present study aimed to characterize and investigate the functional and angiotensin-I converting enzyme (ACE) inhibition activities of chickpea water-soluble polysaccharides (CPWSP). Physico-chemical characteristics were determined by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR), Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) analysis, and X-ray diffractometry (XRD). Functional properties (water holding capacity: WHC, water solubility index: WSI, swelling capacity: SC, oil holding capacity: OHC, foaming, and emulsion properties) and ACE activities were also investigated using well-established procedures. The FT-IR spectra obtained for the CPWSP revealed two significant peaks, at about 3500 and 500 cm(-1), which corresponded to the carbohydrate region and were characteristic of polysaccharides. All spectra showed the presence of a broad absorption between 1500 and 670 cm(-1), which could be attributed to C H, C-O, and O-H bands in the polysaccharides. CPWSP had an XRD pattern that was typical for a semi-crystalline polymer with a major crystalline reflection at 19.6 degrees C. They also displayed important techno-functional properties (SWC, WSI, WHC, and OHC) that can be modulated according to temperature. The CPWSP were also noted to display good anti-hypertensive activities. Overall, the results indicate that CPWSP have attractive chemical, biological, and functional properties that make them potential promising candidates for application as alternative additives in various food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical preparations.

Physicochemical Properties of Palm Oil-Based Puff Pastry Model Margarines Related to Their Baking Performance in Long-Term Storage

Roxane Detry, Vera Van Hoed, Jerome Sterckx, Catherine Deledicque, Kiyotaka Sato, Christophe Blecker, Sabine Danthine

Summary: The research found that the triacylglycerol (TAG) composition of palm oil-based puff pastry margarines significantly influences post crystallization processes and physical properties of the fat crystal network. High levels of 1,3-di-palmitoyl-2-oleoylglycerol (POP) may have negative impacts. Proper balance of POP, 1,2-di-palmitoyl-3-oleoylglycerol (PPO), and tripalmitoylglycerol (PPP) proportions is crucial in preventing detrimental effects on the fat's characteristics and baking performance.

Effect of high-intensity ultrasound on the oleogelation and physical properties of high melting point monoglycerides and triglycerides oleogels

Thais Lomonaco Teodoro da Silva, Sabine Danthine

Summary: The synergy of binary oleogels structured by monoglycerides and high melting point triacylglycerols was evaluated, with the best physical properties found in the MG6:HF0 oleogel. High-intensity ultrasound improved the properties of blends of monoglycerides and high melting point triacylglycerols, but had a negative effect on the MG6:HF0 oleogel. Sonocrystallization induced secondary nucleation and changes in the crystalline material only in blends containing high melting point triacylglycerols, indicating a better effect of sonocrystallization on oleogels with high melting points.

Summary: This study evaluates the potential of enzymatic interesterification (EIE) in producing new healthy fats based on rapeseed oil. The study compares EIE with chemical interesterification (CIE) and finds that EIE preserves more tocopherols and does not form process-induced contaminants, while CIE forms dialkylketones. The results indicate the great potential of EIE in producing healthy fats solely based on rapeseed oil.

Summary: Crosslinking affects the mechanical behavior and tissue metabolism of collagen-based tissues. Aging and diabetes alter the crosslinking type and density, thus changing tissue properties. High-connectivity enzymatic crosslinking and advanced-glycation end-products result in uniform deformation under daily activity, while low-connectivity enzymatic crosslinking does not. High-connectivity model displays more sliding, while AGEs induce instability in structures near the binding sites.
