 @article{carvajal_macdonald_lanier_1999, title={Cryostabilization mechanism of fish muscle proteins by maltodextrins}, volume={38}, ISSN={["0011-2240"]}, DOI={10.1006/cryo.1998.2142}, abstractNote={Maltodextrins of varying mean molecular weights (MW) were evaluated for cryoprotective ability in Alaska pollock surimi (leached mince) versus sucrose or a sucrose-sorbitol mixture. Treatments were stored either isothermally at -8, -14, or -20 degrees C for 3 months or freeze-thaw (F/T) cycled six times to induce freeze-related protein denaturation, measured as a decrease in myosin Ca+2 ATPase activity and change in heat-induced gel-forming ability. Results indicated good cryoprotection by all maltodextrins at -20 degrees C isothermal storage irrespective of MW, but poor cryoprotection by higher MW maltodextrins at higher isothermal storage temperatures or after F/T cycling. These observations, and surface tension measurements of maltodextrin solutions, indicated that lower MW maltodextrins likely cryoprotect by a preferential solute exclusion mechanism, similar to sucrose and sorbitol. Higher MW maltodextrins presumably cryoprotect at lower storage temperatures via a reduced water mobility mechanism. As the MW of maltodextrins increased the gelling ability of the surimi was increasingly impaired, such that evidence of cryoprotection from gelation data was obscured.
