Summary: This study compares two methods of extracting pea protein from pea flour, showing that the salt extraction-dialysis method produces smaller and denser particles compared to the alkali extraction-isoelectric precipitation method. Furthermore, maintaining a pH of 4 during thermo-mechanical treatment results in larger and denser particles. Temperature variation between 88°C and 98°C has minimal influence on particle size.

Summary: In this study, the protein profile and content of active compounds in pea albumin-rich fractions extracted by lactic acid fermentation were examined. The fermented samples showed higher total nitrogen content and increased antioxidant activity. Lactic acid fermentation also resulted in a significant reduction of anti-nutritional compounds in the pea albumin fraction.

Summary: The study investigated the impact of AE-IEP and SE dialysis on the structural, functional properties, and volatile profile of hemp protein isolate (HPI). SE-HPI had a higher protein content (97.21%) than AE-IEP extracted HPI (93.37%). The extraction methods strongly influenced the protein subunit composition, structural properties, solubility, emulsion activity, and thermal stability of HPI. Additionally, SE-HPI had a lower number (21) of volatile compounds compared to its counterpart (25). The study emphasizes the importance of understanding the relationship between extraction methods and functional attributes of HPI.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of Lactobacillus rhamnosus L08 fermentation on the physicochemical characteristics, amino acid composition, and volatile flavor compounds of pea flour. The results showed that L. rhamnosus L08 fermentation increased the content of most amino acids, reduced the unpleasant flavor compounds, and improved the emulsifying and foam stability of pea flour. These findings suggest that lactic acid bacteria fermentation is a promising approach to eliminate undesirable aroma of pea flour and promote its use as a high-quality protein source.

Summary: This study aimed to improve the aroma of pea protein isolates (PPI) using lactic acid fermentation (LAF), which successfully masked undesirable grassy off-flavors. A 10-hour Lactobacillus plantarum fermentation was found to be optimal in removing off-flavors while maintaining protein functionality, resulting in a desirable aroma profile for PPI products used in yogurt substitute production.

Summary: This study examined the feasibility of improving the emulsifying capacity of chicken liver protein through different isoelectric solubilization/precipitation processes. The results showed that solubilization at higher alkaline pH levels and precipitation at lower pH levels led to higher protein recovery yield. The emulsions obtained from these processes exhibited good stability and emulsification activity. Therefore, suitable ISP techniques have the potential to enhance the application of chicken liver protein.

Summary: Different extraction methods have varying effects on the structure-functionality and emulsification behavior of pea and faba bean protein isolates and concentrates. A regression model can predict emulsion characteristics based on protein properties. Emulsions stabilized with concentrates show better or comparable particle size, zeta potential, and microstructure compared to isolates.

Summary: The study investigated a ternary solvent system composed of water/sodium salicylate/ethyl acetate for the extraction, solubilization, and stabilization of curcumin from Curcuma longa. Good extraction yields were achieved in the area of best solubility, while the protective effect of sodium salicylate on curcumin oxidation was found to be significant.

Summary: This study focuses on obtaining L(+)-lactic acid from sucrose using Lactobacillus casei Ke11 strain through different feeding strategies, which increases lactic acid production and productivity, while avoiding cellular stress caused by high osmotic pressure. The purification of the acid using charcoal and celite, followed by a cation exchange column, proved to be highly efficient, allowing for a high yield of lactic acid and removal of sugars and proteins. This study shows potential for large-scale fermentation of L. casei Ke11 for production of l-lactic acid.

Summary: Bio-based carboxylic acids are established as adaptable precursors to renewable biofuels and chemicals, but their separation poses significant energy and cost challenges. The use of weak-base adsorption processes shows promising results in reducing operating costs, energy consumption, and greenhouse gas emissions compared to conventional methods.

Summary: Fermentation by lactic acid bacteria is an ancient form of food preservation. Lactic acid bacteria have antimicrobial activity against foodborne pathogens and the ability to neutralize mycotoxin. This activity is mainly due to the production of metabolites such as lactic acid, organic acids, hydroperoxide, and bacteriocins. The use of lactic acid bacteria may provide an alternative to chemical preservatives in biopreservation.

Summary: In this study, the interactions and associations between low denatured pea globulins (PPI) and purified main egg white proteins (ovalbumin (OVA), ovotransferrin (OVT), and lysozyme (LYS)) were investigated using various techniques. The results showed strong exothermic interactions between PPI and LYS, leading to aggregation. Electrostatic interactions played a significant role in the formation of oligomers between LYS and PPI. However, no or weak interactions were observed between OVT or OVA and PPI.

Summary: The study investigates the thermal behavior of mixtures of raw egg white (EW) and a laboratory-prepared pea protein isolate (PPI) to control the heat treatment of a composite protein ingredient. The results show changes in the thermal denaturation temperatures and denaturation enthalpy of proteins, suggesting protein interactions. The elastic modulus of the mixtures increases with the EW content, indicating gel formation governed by the EW protein. This study also identifies two thermal sol-gel transitions in EW-containing systems, with a shift at pH 9.0 possibly due to the hindering effect of denatured and non-associated pea globulins.
