This study examined the functionality of protein-polyphenol aggregate particles formulated with whey protein isolate (WPI) and polyphenol-rich cranberry juice (or imitation juice) in model high protein bars. Differences in texture and structure of protein bars during 43 days of storage at 32 °C were dependent on the type of protein (unmodified WPI or aggregate particle) and the drying technique (freeze-drying or spray-drying) used in particle formation. Bars prepared with WPI-cranberry spray-dried particles (WPI–C SD) were softer and less elastic than those formulated with unmodified WPI or polyphenol-free (WPI-IC FD, WPI-IC SD) particles (firmness range 0.09–0.85 kPa). Bars formulated with WPI-cranberry freeze-dried particles (WPI–C FD) were softer than control bars made with WPI; but, only up until 31 days of storage, and less elastic than control bars up until 11 days. The addition of protein-polyphenol particles not only increased the nutritional content of the protein bars, but also inhibited rheological and structural changes, and could be used as a novel approach for functional delivery of protein in the formulation of high protein bars.}, journal={LWT-FOOD SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY}, author={Diaz, Joscelin T. and Foegeding, E.

Astringency is perceived as an increase in oral friction or roughness. Astringency caused by tannins and other polyphenols has been well documented and studied. Whey proteins are popular for their functional and nutritional quality, but they exhibit astringency, particularly under acidic conditions popular in high acid (pH 3.4) whey protein beverages. Acids cause astringency, but acidic protein beverages have higher astringency than acid alone. Whey proteins are able to interact with salivary proteins, which removes the lubricating saliva layer of the mouth. Whey proteins can also interact directly with epithelial tissue. These various mechanisms of astringency limit whey protein ingredient applications because astringency is undesirable to consumers.

Secondarily, we sought to determine if specific structural and mechanical properties were associated with sensory texture terms. Heat set gels were made from whey proteins alone or combined with casein in micellar or dispersed form at pH 6.0 and 5.5. Replacing the whey protein with casein produced a gel breakdown pattern that was more cohesive during mastication with increased moisture retention. Additionally, casein addition reduced gel strength but minimally altered recoverable energy (an indicator of elasticity). Structural breakdown patterns were shifted from brittle‐ to ductile‐like fracture for gels containing dispersed casein at pH 5.5 or micellar casein at pH 6.0. Shifts in microstructure observed by confocal microscopy could not explain the changes in mechanical or sensory textures. The differentiating sensory attributes among treatments were adhesiveness, cohesiveness of mass, tackiness, firmness, fracturability, and deformability. Most notably, adding casein increased cohesiveness while maintaining water holding properties. Sensory texture properties could be explained by a combination of macroscopic structural changes (appearance), fracture properties, and postfracture breakdown pattern. Overall, it was demonstrated that casein can be used to alter whey protein gel structure such that sensory firmness and fracturability are decreased and cohesiveness is increased, while preventing a large increase in moisture release.}, journal={JOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE}, author={Cubides, Yvette T.

The goal of this investigation was to determine how filler particles alter oral processing patterns and sensory texture perception of two model food gels with distinct mechanical properties. Agar gels (brittle) and κ-carrageenan-locust bean gum gels (ductile) were formulated to have similar strength (fracture stress) but different deformability (fracture strain). Increasing the phase volume of oil droplets decreased fracture stress and stress intensity factor of both filled gels, while the main effect on fracture strain and fracture surface energy was observed for the highly deformable κ-carrageenan-locust bean. Adding oil had general effects of decreasing sensory hardness and particle size and increasing the rate of breakdown. Furthermore, agar gel texture was more sensitive to adding oil, with changes observed in several textural properties of agar gels with no corresponding change in κ-carrageenan-locust bean gels. Adding oil did not change the oral processing pattern based on distance and velocity of jaw movement, along with temporal aspects of each chewing cycle. However, jaw velocity and movement were adjusted for differences in gel type. κ-carrageenan-locust bean gels generally required more muscle activity to prepare for swallowing, and increasing oil content decreased overall muscle activity for both gels. These results imply that gel structure, rather than the amount of oil filler, determined the oral processing pattern.}, journal={FOOD HYDROCOLLOIDS}, author={Koc, Hicran and Drake, MaryAnne and Vinyard, Christopher J. and Essick, Gregory and Velde, Fred and Foegeding, E.

However, these reports are commonly based on aqueous solutions of polymers and it is unknown if this phenomenon applies to more complex fluids containing protein and fat, or if taste suppression can be explained on the basis of an altered temporal profile of taste. In this study, the effects of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) concentration (0.15–1.50% w/w) on sensory texture and sweet taste perception (6.0% w/w sucrose) were evaluated. Zero-shear viscosity of CMC solutions ranged from 5.5 to 133 mPa s, and c* was experimentally determined to be 0.67% w/w. Three concentrations above c* were tested and only the highest (1.5% CMC) caused a significant (p < 0.05) reduction in sweet taste. Moreover, when combined with milk protein concentrate to approximate the macromolecular profile of reduced fat milk, perceived sweet taste slightly increased with viscosity. Time intensity evaluations revealed a large variation in temporal perception of sweet taste among individual panelists, with time to maximum intensity ranging from 4.8 to 33.5 s.

Longitudinal samples with shear work input <30 kJ/kg demonstrated significant strain hardening by all 3 estimation methods. At shear work inputs <30 kJ/kg, strong anisotropy was observed in both fracture stress and strain. After a shear work input of 58.2 kJ/kg, anisotropy and strain hardening were absent.

Studies have shown that at a narrow pH range near the protein isoelectric points, whey proteins and polysaccharides self assemble into soluble complexes (SCs) that exhibit unique functionality. This study investigated the formation and thermal stability of SCs under conditions relevant to beverage applications. Complexes were formed at pH 5 using whey protein isolate (WPI; 1–6% w/w) and high-methoxyl pectin (HMP; 0.125–0.75% w/w) and then heat-set at 85 °C for 25 min.

Mean particle diameter ranged from 300 to 715 nm for unheated SCs, and 230 nm to 1 μm for heat-set SCs. Heat-setting SCs led to a significant (p < 0.05) reduction in intrinsic viscosity from 93.6 mL/g to 79.5 mL/g, suggesting conformational changes that favor a smaller hydrodynamic size. Dispersions of SCs exhibited decreased apparent viscosity, consistent with the lower intrinsic viscosity and smaller particle size.

A specific application that has not received much attention is the use of complexes for enhanced colloidal stability of protein sols, such as protein-containing beverages. In beverages, the primary goal is the formation of complexes that remain dispersed after thermal processing and extended storage. This review highlights recent progress in the area of forming whey protein–polysaccharide soluble complexes that would be appropriate for beverage applications. Research in this area indicates that soluble complexes can be formed and stabilized that are reasonably small in size and possess a large surface charge that would predict colloidal stability. Selection of specific proteins and polysaccharides can be tailored to desired conditions. The principal challenges involve overcoming restrictions on protein concentration and ensuring that protein remains bioavailable. }, journal={ANNUAL REVIEW OF FOOD SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY, VOL 7}, author={Wagoner, Ty and Vardhanabhuti, Bongkosh and Foegeding, E.

It is a linear polysaccharide composed of neutral (acetylated) and positively (deacetylated) sugar units and can be prepared with varying content of the two units. One factor limiting the use of chitosan is causing an unacceptable level of astringency. We hypothesized that astringency was related to the positive charge density and that decreasing the charge density would decrease astringency. Chitosans with fraction of acetylated units (FA) ranging from 0.01 to 0.49 (percentage degree of acetylation from 1 to 49) were analyzed for astringency using a time intensity sensory method. In addition, the ability of chitosans to precipitate saliva proteins was determined. Increasing FA from 0.01 to 0.49 caused a decrease in maximum astringency sensation from 10.9 to 7.2. Mucins and other saliva proteins were precipitated by chitosans but a simple association with astringency intensity was not observed. It can be concluded that altering the charge density of chitosans is a means to alter chitosan astringency.}, journal={FOOD HYDROCOLLOIDS}, author={Luck, Paige and Varum, Kjell M. and Foegeding, E.

The authors hypothesized that denture wearers would differ in duration of chewing, frequency of chewing, and masticatory muscle activity while preparing a bolus for swallowing. MATERIALS AND METHODS Surface electromyography was recorded bilaterally from the masseter, anterior temporalis, and anterior digastric. Masticatory muscle activity was evaluated using scaled values of the area under the electromyographic curve, while subjects chewed agar-based model foods with different fracture strengths. Chewing duration and frequency also were calculated from electromyographic recordings. Mixed model analysis of variance with "subject" as a random factor was used during statistical analysis. Logarithmic transformation was required to achieve normalization of residuals for the duration of chewing and the relative masticatory muscles activity, but not for the chewing frequency. RESULTS Relative masticatory muscle activity was 2.57 times higher for the denture wearers than for the dentate subjects during chewing of model foods (P < .0001). The reduction in masticatory muscle activity from the 1st to the 10th chewing cycle was proportionally less in magnitude and occurred more gradually for denture wearers compared to dentate subjects. While chewing sequence duration increased with food fracture strength, it did not differ significantly in treatment versus dentate groups. Chewing cycle frequency did not differ between groups or with food fracture strength. CONCLUSIONS The observed increases in relative masticatory muscle activity for denture wearers compared to the dentate subjects during oral food processing likely reflect supplemental mechanical efforts to accommodate the use of dentures for preparing a bolus for swallowing.}, number={1}, journal={INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PROSTHODONTICS}, author={Uram-Tuculescu, Sorin and Cooper, Lyndon F. and Foegeding, E.

Soluble aggregates from the two sources of WPI exhibited physicochemical and functional differences over the range of conditions investigated. Soluble aggregates formed at pH 7.5, 7% w/w protein, by heating statically at 90 °C for 10 min exhibited lower turbidity and viscosity, and higher solubility when thermally treated in solutions containing salt for both types of WPI, and were more sensitive to CaCl2.

Soluble aggregates were formed under continuous flow at pH 6.5, 7% w/w WPI, added at 5% w/w to the beverage, and thermally processed. Over nine weeks of storage at 22.5 °C, the beverage with SA had lower turbidity, aggregate size, and viscosity; and the aggregates had a more negative zeta potential.

Currently, hydrogen peroxide (HP) and benzoyl peroxide are used for bleaching liquid whey. However, previous studies have shown that chemical bleaching causes off-flavor formation, mainly due to lipid oxidation and protein degradation. The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of microfiltration (MF) on norbixin removal and to compare flavor and functionality of 80% whey protein concentrate (WPC80) from MF whey to WPC80 from whey bleached with HP or lactoperoxidase (LP). Cheddar cheese whey was manufactured from colored, pasteurized milk. The fluid whey was pasteurized and fat separated. Liquid whey was subjected to 4 different treatments: control (no bleaching; 50°C, 1 h), HP (250 mg of HP/kg; 50°C, 1 h), and LP (20 mg of HP/kg; 50°C, 1 h), or MF (microfiltration; 50°C, 1 h). The treated whey was then ultrafiltered, diafiltered, and spray-dried to 80% concentrate. The entire experiment was replicated 3 times. Proximate analyses, color, functionality, descriptive sensory and instrumental volatile analysis were conducted on WPC80. The MF and HP- and LP-bleached WPC80 displayed a 39.5, 40.9, and 92.8% norbixin decrease, respectively. The HP and LP WPC80 had higher cardboard flavors and distinct cabbage flavor compared with the unbleached and MF WPC80. Volatile compound results were consistent with sensory results. The HP and LP WPC80 were higher in lipid oxidation compounds (especially heptanal, hexanal, pentanal, 1-hexen-3-one, 2-pentylfuran, and octanal) compared with unbleached and MF WPC80. All WPC80 had >85% solubility across the pH range of 3 to 7. The microstructure of MF gels determined by confocal laser scanning showed an increased protein particle size in the gel network. MF WPC80 also had larger storage modulus values, indicating higher gel firmness. Based on bleaching efficacy comparable to chemical bleaching with HP, flavor, and functionality results, MF is a viable alternative to chemical or enzymatic bleaching of fluid whey.}, number={9}, journal={Journal of Dairy Science}, author={Qiu, Y. and Smith, T.

The state diagrams present an overlapping view of high colloidal stability at pH 3 accompanied by high solubility of individual whey proteins. At pH 5, beverages were characterized by poor solubility, high turbidity, and aggregation/gelation of whey proteins with the exception of glycomacropeptide.

It also has a profound impact on world economy, international trade, and global political stability. The choice of land used for agriculture, and the livestock and plants raised on the land, will impact the sustainable use of global resources. On a global scale, there are communities where insufficient food causes nutritional deficiencies, and at the same time, there are other communities eating too much food leading to obesity. Both conditions have accompanying diseases with associated financial consequences. The above issues relate to various scales, from local to global, and to a range of scientific disciplines. Moreover, their various elements are part of an interdependent, continuously changing, and adaptive system. This implies that the response of a combination of individual elements cannot usually be inferred from the response of each individual element or subsystem. This makes the identification of an appropriate intervention to change one or more elements a complex problem. We propose that a complex system approach should be used to address the global challenges of the agriculture and food system. The complex system approach accounts for the needs of stakeholders and policymakers in the agriculture and food system, and helps to determine which research programs will enable stakeholders to better anticipate and respond to emerging developments in the world. Moreover, the approach will enable them to determine effective intervention strategies to simultaneously optimise and safeguard their interests and the interests of the environment.

A quick look at the Wkipedia entry for Marathon World Records produced the following information (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ Marathon_world_record_progression). Jonny Hayes, an American, set the Marathon record in 1908 with a time of 2 hours 55 minutes and 18 seconds. I can fantasize that I could have run in that 1908 race and produced a respectable showing. Jump to present time, and the record is 2 hours 3 minutes and 38 seconds, set by Patrick Makau of Kenya at the 2011 Berlin Marathon. Most people cannot run a quarter mile at this pace; let alone 26.2 miles. It goes to show what focused training on an athletically gifted individual can do to improve athletic performance. There is a parallel in science. Each new publication should build on the foundation of knowledge found in the literature and add new information. This does not rule out the need for experiments that confirm a current hypothesis or scientific principle; however, a simple confirmation of experimental results without adding some element that is unique to the literature is often met with a rejection. The editors of the Journal of Food Science have just finished revising the Aim and Scope of the journal and the descriptions of appropriate material for individual sections (Concise Reviews and Hypotheses in Food Science; Food Chemistry; Food Engineering and Physical Properties; Food Microbiology and Safety; Sensory and Food Quality; Nanoscale Food Science, Engineering, and Technology; Health, Nutrition, and Food; and Toxicology and Chemical Food Safety). It should also be noted that the descriptions for our sister publications, Journal of Food Science Education and Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, have also been revised. The intent was to clearly and precisely elucidate what is acceptable and unacceptable for publication. Like many journals, we receive far more manuscripts than we can publish. Based on previous submission levels, we will need to reject > 75% of the manuscripts submitted in 2013 to stay within our restrictions on number of pages for a yearly volume. This means that many manuscripts, with no flaws in experimental design or data interpretation, will be rejected because their findings were not new, were not unique, or had a minor impact on the science of food. Most people would agree that Science is one of the preeminent journals publishing original scientific articles. In determining if your manuscript is qualified to be published in Science, they provide the following information: “Science’s Mission: Science seeks to publish those papers that are most influential in their fields or across fields and that will significantly advance scientific understanding. Selected papers should present novel and broadly important data, syntheses, or concepts. They should merit the recognition by the scientific community and general public provided by publication in Science, beyond that provided by specialty journals.” (http://www.sciencemag.org/site/feature/ contribinfo/prep/gen_info.xhtml). To paraphrase Science’s mission to our specialty journal, the Journal of Food Science seeks to publish papers that are most influential in the array of specific fields (see list of sections above) comprising the broad discipline of Food Science. Selected papers should present novel and important data, syntheses, or concepts that broadly cover Food Science and are not specific to a limited audience. As an author, I am keenly aware of the disappointment in having a manuscript rejected for “not of sufficient impact for publication.” However, just as in running a marathon, the level of performance that merits recognition continues to increase. We are simply raising our standards to select the highest quality manuscripts. The editors of the Journal of Food Science are committed to make this the preeminent journal that covers the array of disciplines that is Food Science.

Reducing fat in cheese is associated with increased sensory firmness, springiness and decreased cohesiveness. Oral processing adjusted to decreased fat content with increased closing muscle (temporalis and masseter) activity, a shorter cycle duration and increased power stroke time. Increased adhesiveness in caramels was associated with increased closing and opening muscle activity, longer cycle duration and increased jaw movement.

The objective of this study was to compare 2 commercially approved bleaching agents, benzoyl peroxide (BP) and hydrogen peroxide (HP), and their effects on the flavor and functionality of 80% whey protein concentrate (WPC80). Colored and uncolored liquid wheys were bleached with BP or HP, and then ultrafiltered, diafiltered, and spray-dried; WPC80 from unbleached colored and uncolored Cheddar whey were manufactured as controls. All treatments were manufactured in triplicate. The WPC80 were then assessed by sensory, instrumental, functionality, color, and proximate analysis techniques. The HP-bleached WPC80 were higher in lipid oxidation compounds (specifically hexanal, heptanal, octanal, nonanal, decanal, dimethyl disulfide, and 1-octen-3-one) and had higher fatty and cardboard flavors compared with the other unbleached and BP-bleached WPC80. The WPC80 bleached with BP had lower norbixin concentrations compared with WPC80 bleached with HP. The WPC powders differed in Hunter color values (L, a, b), with bleached powders being more white, less red, and less yellow than unbleached powders. Bleaching with BP under the conditions used in this study resulted in larger reductions in yellowness of the powders made from whey with annatto color than did bleaching with HP. Functionality testing demonstrated that whey bleached with HP treatments had more soluble protein after 10 min of heating at 90°C at pH 4.6 and pH 7 than the no-bleach and BP treatments, regardless of additional color. Overall, HP bleaching caused more lipid oxidation products and subsequent off-flavors compared with BP bleaching. However, heat stability of WPC80 was enhanced by HP bleaching compared with control or BP-bleached WPC80.}, number={6}, journal={JOURNAL OF DAIRY SCIENCE}, author={Jervis, S. and Campbell, R. and Wojciechowski, K.

The study was divided into 2 experiments. In the 1st experiment, whey protein isolate (WPI) and egg white protein (EWP) gels were formed at pH 4.5 and 7.0 using heating rates ranging from 0.1 to 35 °C/min and holding times at 80 °C up to 240 min. The 2nd experiment used one heating condition (80 °C for 60 min) and probed in detail the pH range of 4.5 to 7.0 for EWP gels. Fracture properties of gels were measured by torsional deformation and HW was measured as the amount of fluid retained after a mild centrifugation. Single or micro‐phase separated conditions were determined by confocal laser scanning microscopy. The effect of heating rate on fracture properties and HW of globular protein gels can be explained by phase stability of the protein dispersion and total thermal input. Minimal difference in fracture properties and HW of EWP gels at pH 4.5 compared with pH 7.0 were observed while WPI gels were stronger and had higher HW at pH 7.0 as compared to 4.5. This was due to a mild degree of micro‐phase separation of EWP gels across the pH range whereas WPI gels only showed an extreme micro‐phase separation in a narrow pH range. In summary, gel formation and physical properties of globular protein gels can be explained by micro‐phase separation.}, number={2}, journal={JOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE}, author={Leksrisompong, Phanin N. and Lanier, Tyre C. and Foegeding, E.

To have an understanding of protein-based, soft-solid texture perception, a multidisciplinary approach was applied that combined studies of food microstructure with mechanical properties, sensory evaluation, and oral physiology. Model foods were developed by combining ion-induced micro-phase separation and protein-polysaccharide phase separation and inversion. Activities of masseter, anterior temporalis and anterior digastric muscles during oral processing were recorded by electromyography (EMG), while jaw movement amplitudes, durations, and velocities were simultaneously collected by a three-dimensional jaw tracking system (JT-3D). Changes in the microstructure of mixed gels significantly altered the characteristics of the chewing sequence, including the muscle activities, number of chews, chewing duration and chewing frequency. Mechanical attributes related to structural breakdown and sensory perception of firmness were highly correlated with the amount of muscle activity required to transform the initial structure into a bolus ready for swallowing. Chewing frequency was linked to mechanical properties such as recoverable energy, fracture strain and water holding capacity of the gels. Increased adhesiveness and moisture release also resulted in slower chewing frequency. Evaluation of oral processing parameters at various stages (i.e., first cycle, first 5 cycles, and last 3 cycles) was found to be a useful method to investigate the dynamic nature of sensory perception at first bite, during chewing and after swallowing. The study showed that muscle activity and jaw movement can be used to understand the links between physical properties of foods and sensory texture.}, number={1}, journal={FOOD HYDROCOLLOIDS}, author={Cakir, Esra and Vinyard, Christopher J. and Essick, Gregory and Daubert, Christopher R. and Drake, MaryAnne and Foegeding, E.

This work evaluated the potential of whey protein soluble aggregates to improve thermal stability in the presence of salts and determine the mechanism of improved thermal stability. Solutions of whey protein isolate (WPI) or β-lactoglobulin (β-lg) (7% w/w, pH 6.8) were heated for 10 min at 90 °C to form soluble aggregates. Native proteins and soluble aggregates were diluted to 3% w/w in solutions containing 0–108 mM NaCl and thermally treated (90 °C, 5 min). Turbidity, solubility, and viscosity were evaluated, in addition to ζ-potential and So (surface hydrophobicity). Size exclusion chromatography coupled with multi-angle laser light scattering (SEC-MALLS) and dynamic light scattering were used to determine aggregate size and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) was used to evaluate aggregate shape. Use of soluble aggregates improved thermal stability due to their altered aggregate shape and higher charge, and resulted in final aggregates that were smaller and less dense, leading to reduced viscosity and turbidity, and increased solubility compared to native proteins.

Large deformation properties and fracture behavior of the gels were determined by uniaxial compression and single-edge notched bend tests. Mechanical properties at varying stages of deformation (before, during and after fracture) and sensory properties at different stages of oral processing (first compression, first bite and after 5–8 chews) followed similar trends based on the change in microstructure. Recoverable energies of gels were in agreement with springiness and compressibility evaluated at first compression in the mouth before biting. Young’s modulus together with fracture properties, including critical energy release rate and fracture toughness, varied among different microstructures along with firmness. After the fracture point, the speed of macroscopic breakdown determined the fracture type of the gels, which was related to the degree of fracturability at the first bite.

The microstructure of WPI gels was homogeneous at pH 6.0 and 6.5 and micro-phase separated at pH 5.5.

In the linear viscoelastic region (LVR), the stress response to a strain input comprises only the first harmonic.

Previous study has developed a mathematical framework that accounted for higher-order harmonics during large amplitude oscillatory shear (LAOS), yielding a physical interpretation to nonlinear data. However, this protocol was not formally validated with model elastic and viscous systems. To that end, a model elastic solid and viscous liquid were tested using LAOS to compare the protocol to standard oscillatory data and the known nonlinear properties of both systems. Good agreement (α = 0.05) was shown between first-order harmonic viscoelastic moduli data for both systems in the linear region. The protocol correctly indicated linear-to-nonlinear transitions of the elastic system, strain-independent linear behavior of the viscous system, and strain-hardening behavior of the elastic system in the nonlinear region.

Whey protein isolate/κ-carrageenan mixed gels were prepared with 13% (w/v) whey protein isolate, 0–0.6% (w/w) κ-carrageenan and 50, 100 or 250 mM NaCl. The microstructure of gels, determined by confocal laser scanning microscopy, varied from homogenous to protein continuous, bicontinuous, coarse stranded or κ-carrageenan continuous, depending on the κ-carrageenan concentration. Microstructure also varied from stranded to particulate (micro-phase separated) depending on the salt concentration. The rheological behavior of mixed gels corresponded to the shift in the continuous phase from protein to κ-carrageenan. At small concentrations of κ-carrageenan, where carrageenan-rich droplets were dispersed in a continuous protein-rich matrix, gel strength (fracture stress) and firmness (G′) increased due to increased local concentration of proteins caused by phase separation. At higher κ-carrageenan concentrations, gels were substantially less firm, weaker and less deformable (fracture strain). The change in the continuous phase from protein continuous to carrageenan continuous explained the major change in mechanical properties and water-holding properties. The shift in microstructure occurred at lower concentrations of κ-carrageenan when whey proteins were under micro-phase separation conditions.

While addition of non-astringent β-LG at pH 7.0 slowly increased friction of saliva film between tribopair surfaces, β-LG at pH 3.5 rapidly increased the friction coefficients of saliva, similar to other astringent compounds (epigallocatechin gallate and alum). This supports the hypothesis that astringency of β-LG arises from the loss of lubrication of saliva which is in agreement with the well-accepted astringency model of polyphenols. Increasing β-LG concentration at pH 3.5 (0.5–10% w/w) caused a rapid increase in friction coefficient; however, at the highest protein concentration, the friction coefficient, although higher than observed for water, was below the values observed for the lower protein concentrations.

Confocal laser scanning microscope analyses indicated that the network microstructure of the formed emulsion gels, mainly composed of aggregated protein-stabilized oil droplets and protein aggregate clumps, varied with the type of applied coagulants and emulsions. The differences in microstructure were basically consistent with the differences in mechanical properties of the gels.

The present work investigated the influence of glycation with glucose (at 1:50 and 1:100 protein/sugar molar ratios; incubation periods of 2.5, 5.0, and 10.0 h) on the physicochemical and conformational properties of kidney bean vicilin (phaseolin), with the aim of understanding the structure-function relationships of legume vicilins. Protein solubility (PS), surface charge (isoelectric point) and hydrophobicity (H0), and secondary, tertiary, and/or quaternary conformations, as well as the emulsifying activities (emulsifying activity and emulsion stability indices, EAI and ESI) were evaluated. The 2.5 h incubation period of glycation led to least PS and highest H0, and after that, the PS and H0, on the contrary, gradually changed with increasing incubation period. The glycation increased the α-helix content and highly ordered secondary structures (α-helix+β-strand), as evidenced by far-UV circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy. Combined analyses of differential scanning calorimetry, intrinsic emission fluorescence, and near-UV CD spectroscopy indicated that phaseolin underwent a tertiary conformation unfolding and subsequent rearrangement process (to form a new tertiary conformation), whereas the quaternary conformational flexibility progressively increased upon increasing degree of glycation. The conformation rearrangement was more distinct at the 1:100 molar ratio than at the 1:50 counterpart. The glycation at 5.0 and 10.0 h periods considerably increased the EAI, but only at the 1:50 molar ratio was the ESI progressively increased with the incubation period. These results confirmed that besides surface properties (e.g., PS and H0), the flexibility in tertiary and/or quaternary conformations played a major role in the emulsifying properties of glycated vicilins.

Addition of sucrose decreased the initial bubble size, corresponding to higher foam stability and lower air phase fraction.

Increased sucrose concentration caused a decreased liquid drainage rate due to a higher continuous phase viscosity and smaller bubble sizes. WPI foams had faster rates for liquid drainage and bubble coarsening than EWP foams. The differences were attributed to faster bubble disproportionation in WPI foams, caused by lower interfacial elasticity and lower liquid phase fractions. The experimentally fitted parameters for foam yield stress did not follow universal trends and were protein type dependent. EWP foams had higher yield stress than WPI foams due to smaller bubble sizes and higher interfacial elasticity.

Increasing sucrose concentration (0–63.6 g/100 mL) gradually increased solution viscosity and decreased foam overrun. Two negative linear relationships were established between foam overrun and solution viscosity on a log–log scale for EWP and WPI respectively; while the foam overrun of EWP decreased in a faster rate than WPI with increasing solution viscosity (altered by sucrose). Addition of sucrose enhanced the interfacial dilational elastic modulus (E′) of EWP but reduced E′ of WPI, possibly due to different interfacial pressures. The foam drainage ½ life was proportionally correlated to the bulk phase viscosity and the interfacial elasticity regardless of protein type, suggesting that the foam destabilization changes can be slowed by a viscous continuous phase and elastic interfaces. Incorporation of sucrose altered the volume of angel food cakes prepared from WPI foams but showed no improvement on the coarse structure.

We investigated if gels could be made under conditions that produced strong/elastic textural properties then adjusted to pH ≤ 4.5 and maintain textural properties. Gels were initially formed at 15% w/w protein (pH 7.5). Equilibration in acid solutions caused gel swelling and lowered pH because of the diffusion of water and H+ into the gels. The type and concentration of acid, and presence of other ions, in the equilibrating solutions influenced pH, swelling ratio, and fracture properties of the gels. Swelling of gels decreased fracture stress (because of decreased protein network density) but caused little change to fracture strain, thus maintaining a desirable strong/elastic fracture pattern. We have shown that whey protein isolate gels can be made at pH ≤ 4.5 with a strong/elastic fracture pattern and the magnitude of this pattern can be altered by varying the acid type, acid concentration, pH of equilibrating solution, and equilibrating time.}, number={5}, journal={JOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE}, author={Vardhanabhuti, Bongkosh and Khayankan, Worarat and Foegeding, E.

One of the major problems with fat reduction in cheese is the development of a firm texture that does not break down during mastication, unlike that observed in full-fat cheeses. The objective of this investigation was to determine how the amount of fat affects the structure of Cheddar cheese from initial formation (2 wk) through 24 wk of aging. Cheeses were made with target fat contents of 3 to 33% (wt/wt) and moisture to protein ratios of 1.5:1. This allowed for comparisons based on relative amounts of fat and protein gel phases. Cheese microstructure was determined by confocal scanning laser microscopy combined with quantitative image analysis. Rheological analysis was used to determine changes in mechanical properties. Increasing fat content caused an increase in size of fat globules and a higher percentage of nonspherical globules. However, no changes in fat globules were observed with aging. Cheese rigidity (storage modulus) increased with fat content at 10°C, but differences attributable to fat were not apparent at 25°C. This was attributable to the storage modulus of fat approaching that of the protein gel; therefore, the amount of fat or gel phase did not have an effect on the cheese storage modulus. The rigidity of cheese decreased with storage and, because changes in the fat phase were not detected, it appeared to be attributable to changes in the gel network. It appeared that the diminished textural quality in low-fat Cheddar cheese is attributed to changes in the breakdown pattern during chewing, as altered by fat disrupting the cheese network.}, number={10}, journal={JOURNAL OF DAIRY SCIENCE}, author={Rogers, N.

This study compared the astringency of beta-lactoglobulin (beta-LG) at low pH with phosphate buffer controls having the same amount of phosphate and at similar pH. Results showed that beta-LG samples were more astringent than phosphate buffers, indicating that astringency was not caused by acid alone and that proteins contribute to astringency. When comparing among various whey protein isolates (WPI) and lactoferrin at pH 3.5, 4.5, and 7.0, lactoferrin was astringent at pH 7.0 where no acid was added. In contrast, astringency of all WPI decreased at pH 7.0. This can be explained by lactoferrin remaining positively charged at pH 7.0 and able to interact with negatively charged saliva proteins, whereas the negatively charged WPI would not interact. Charge interactions were further supported by beta-LG or lactoferrin and salivary proteins precipitating when mixed at conditions where beta-LG, lactoferrin, or saliva themselves did not precipitate.

In this study, concentration effects on thermal aggregation of β-lactoglobulin were studied at low pH using capillary and rotational viscometry, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and high performance liquid chromatography coupled with multi-angle laser light scattering (HPLC-MALS). From the results of capillary viscometry, a critical concentration (Cc ∼ 6.9% w/w) was identified below which no significant thickening functionality could be achieved. Microscopy revealed formation of flexible fibrillar network at pH 3.35 during heating at all concentrations. These flexible fibrils had a diameter of about 5 nm and persistence length of about 35 nm as compared to more linear and stiff fibrils formed at pH 2 and low ionic strength conditions. Under similar heating conditions at concentration above Cc, larger aggregates similar to microgels were observed compared to the concentration below Cc, where isolated fibrils with an average contour length of about 130 nm were observed. These microgels and apparently stronger interactions between aggregates at concentrations above Cc were seemingly responsible for thickening functionality of heated β-lactoglobulin solutions and subsequently modified powders.

However, EWP foams were excluded from the common trends observed for WPI and WPI/EWP combination foams. Changes in interfacial tension showed that even the lowest level of WPI substitution (25% WPI) was enough to cause the temporal pattern of interfacial tension to mimic the pattern of WPI instead of EWP, suggesting that whey proteins dominated the interface.

The concentration of WPI was held fixed at 10.0 wt% and carrageenan concentration was varied in the range 0.05–3.0 wt%. Ca2+ cations, which have been shown previously to be particularly effective in inducing gelation of κ-carrageenan, were introduced as CaCl2. The concentration of CaCl2 used in most of the experiments was 8 mM, but other concentrations were also studied. Mixtures were prepared in the solution state at 45 °C, and showed no evidence of either phase separation or complex formation. Rheological changes were monitored by low-amplitude oscillatory measurements of storage modulus, G′, during (i) cooling (1 °C/min) and holding at 5 °C, to induce gelation of the carrageenan in the presence of non-gelled WPI; (ii) heating and holding at 80 °C to dissociate the carrageenan network and induce gelation of WPI; (iii) cooling and holding again at 5 °C, to give composite networks with both components gelled; and (iv) re-heating to 80 °C to dissociate the carrageenan network. Gel structure was characterised further by creep–recovery measurements at the end of each holding period, and by torsion measurements at 5 °C, before and after thermal gelation of WPI. In 8 mM CaCl2, the presence of 10.0 wt% WPI promoted earlier gelation of κ-carrageenan during cooling, and displaced the disorder–order transition in DSC to higher temperature. These changes are attributed to segregative interaction with non-gelled WPI. The resulting networks, however, were weaker that those formed by κ-carrageenan alone, which was traced to binding of Ca2+ cations to the WPI. At higher concentrations of CaCl2, where availability of Ca2+ cations was no longer a limiting factor in gelation of the κ-carrageenan, the effect of segregative interactions could be seen as an increase in gel strength. On heating to gel the WPI, the presence of κ-carrageenan led to the earlier appearance of an aggregation exotherm in DSC and to network formation at shorter times, which can similarly be explained by enhanced self-association of denatured WPI in response to segregative interactions with disordered carrageenan. An initial large (∼10 fold) increase in gel strength with increasing concentration of carrageenan to ∼0.25 wt% was followed by a reduction at higher concentrations, attributed to excessive aggregation (incipient precipitation) of the WPI. The magnitude of the changes in G′ observed on subsequent cooling suggest that gelation of κ-carrageenan within the pores of an existing network of gelled WPI gives rise to a bicontinuous co-gel structure. Comparison of moduli at 80 °C before and after cooling to 5 °C demonstrated that formation and dissociation of the carrageenan network caused no disruption of the network of gelled WPI.}, number={2}, journal={FOOD HYDROCOLLOIDS}, author={Harrington, J.

Cheeses were evaluated by a trained sensory panel using an established texture lexicon as well as instrumental methods, which were used to probe cheese structure. Sensory analysis showed that low-fat cheeses were differentiated from full-fat cheeses by being more springy and firm and this difference widened as the cheeses aged. In addition, full-fat cheeses broke down more during chewing than the lower fat cheeses and the degree of breakdown increased with aging. Mechanical properties were divided by magnitude of deformation during the test and separated into 3 ranges: the linear viscoelastic region, the nonlinear region, and fracture point. These regions represent a stress/strain response from low to high magnitude, respectively. Strong relationships between sensory terms and rheological properties determined in the linear (maximum compliance) and nonlinear (critical stress and strain and a nonlinear shape factor) regions were revealed. Some correlations were seen with fracture values, but these were not as high as terms related to the nonlinear region of the cheeses. The correlations pointed to strain-weakening behavior being the critical mechanical property. This was associated with higher fat content cheeses breaking down more as strain increased up to fracture. Increased strain weakening associated with an increase in fat content was attributed to fat producing weak points in the protein network, which became initiation sites for fracture within the structure. This suggests that fat replacers need to serve this functional role.}, number={10}, journal={JOURNAL OF DAIRY SCIENCE}, author={Rogers, N. R. and Drake, M. A. and Daubert, C. R. and McMahon, D.

Although the dextran and glycerol dramatically changed the viscosity of the alginate solution, the gelation kinetics was not affected. This observation may be attributed to the fact that the gelling process was controlled by the combination of carboxylic groups in alginate chains with Ca2 + , and not by the diffusion process of alginate molecules and Ca2 + through the viscous medium. The small‐strain shear modulus of alginate gels with either low molecular‐weight dextran (MW: 140,000 Da) or glycerol remained nearly constant, as did the large deformation and fracture properties. The addition of high molecular‐weight dextran (MW: 4–5 million Da) altered the small‐strain shear modulus and lowered the gel fracture stress of the alginate gels, while the fracture strain remained the same. The change in small‐strain shear modulus and large deformation and fracture properties for alginate gels with high MW dextran cannot simply be explained by the change in viscosity of the gel liquid phase. A plausible explanation for this behavior is that, in some manner, large dextran molecules influenced the alginate gel network. }, number={5}, journal={Journal of Texture Studies}, author={Zhang, J. and Daubert, C.

We evaluated if this approach would stabilize protein solutions at higher concentration and thermal processing temperatures desired for beverage applications. Mixtures of beta-lactoglobulin (BLG) (6% w/v) with either beta-casein (BCN) (0.01-2% w/v) or alpha s-casein (ACN) (2% w/v) were adjusted to pH 6.0 and heated (70-90 degrees C) for 20 min, cooled, and then analyzed to determine the degree of aggregation. Aggregation was determined by solution turbidity as optical density (OD) at 400 or 600 nm. The addition of 0.05% (w/v) BCN or greater caused a drop in turbidity for solutions heated at 70-90 degrees C. In contrast, inhibition was observed in BLG-ACN mixtures at 70 degrees C but not at > or =75 degrees C. Moreover, prolonged heating (90 min) of BLG with 2% (w/v) BCN (pH 6.0) at 90 degrees C produced a clear solution while BLG-ACN solutions formed translucent gels after heating for 15 min. The weight-averaged molar mass and root-mean-square (rms) radius of soluble aggregates were determined by size exclusion chromatography in conjunction with multiangle laser light scattering (SEC-MALS). SEC-MALS confirmed the turbidity results by showing that the BLG-BCN mixture (8% w/v protein) produced aggregates with lower molar mass and smaller rms radius (majority 20-40 nm).

There are 2 types of whey protein-containing beverages: those at neutral pH and those at low pH. Astringency is very pronounced at low pH. Astringency is thought to be caused by compounds in foods that bind with and precipitate salivary proteins; however, the mechanism of astringency of whey proteins is not understood. The effect of viscosity and pH on the astringency of a model beverage containing whey protein isolate was investigated. Trained sensory panelists (n = 8) evaluated the viscosity and pH effects on astringency and basic tastes of whey protein beverages containing 6% wt/vol protein. Unlike what has been shown for alum and polyphenols, increasing viscosity (1.6 to 7.7 mPa.s) did not decrease the perception of astringency. In contrast, the pH of the whey protein solution had a major effect on astringency. A pH 6.8 whey protein beverage had a maximum astringency intensity of 1.2 (15-point scale), whereas that of a pH 3.4 beverage was 8.8 (15-point scale). Astringency decreased between pH 3.4 and 2.6, coinciding with an increase in sourness. Decreases in astringency corresponded to decreases in protein aggregation as observed by turbidity. We propose that astringency is related to interactions between positively charged whey proteins and negatively charged saliva proteins. As the pH decreased between 3.4 and 2.6, the negative charge on the saliva proteins decreased, causing the interactions with whey proteins to decrease.}, number={7}, journal={JOURNAL OF DAIRY SCIENCE}, author={Beecher, J.

A constitutive equation based on the deformation of junction zones and a Gaussian distribution network of chains was developed to predict deformation behavior. The resulting equation effectively described the experimental data during torsion and compression, supporting the proposed mechanism that strain-hardening originates from the deformation of alginate junction zones.}, number={1}, journal={JOURNAL OF FOOD ENGINEERING}, author={Zhang, Junhua and Daubert, Christopher R. and Foegeding, E.

Many companies produce 291-kg blocks of Cheddar cheese, which are subsequently cut and shipped, or stored and subsequently cut. Previous research has shown that compositional differences exist within 291-kg blocks and that these differences may influence flavor and texture development. The objectives of this study were to systematically characterize flavor and texture differences within 291-kg blocks. On 2 different occasions, a 291-kg block was manufactured at each of 4 manufacturing facilities. After 7 d, the 291-kg blocks were sliced into sixteen 18-kg sample portions using a predetermined diagram, and each portion was labeled appropriately (outer corner, inner corner, etc.) and stored at 7 degrees C. Cheese from different locations within the 291-kg blocks was evaluated at 1, 4, 8, and 12 mo. At each time point, two 18-kg portions representing an inside and outside location with the 291-kg block cross-section (from inside to outside) were sampled. The moisture content was lower in the inner than outer locations within the 291-kg blocks. Protein hydrolysis was higher in the inner location and inner locations developed aged Cheddar flavors sulfur, nutty, and brothy more rapidly than the outer locations. However, plant-to-plant differences in aging were often larger than differences caused by block location. These differences were due to differences in cheese manufacturing practices among plants. Dynamic headspace results for flavor volatiles were consistent with descriptive sensory flavor results, documenting differences between inner and outer locations within 291-kg blocks. The inner locations were more fracturable and the outer locations were more cohesive and had more residual in the mouth. Inner locations had greater fracture strain than outer locations. Documenting the differences in aging of 291-kg blocks of Cheddar cheese is important in understanding how to make a consistent high-quality Cheddar cheese.}, number={7}, journal={JOURNAL OF DAIRY SCIENCE}, author={Whetstine, M.

Adsorption rates and interfacial rheological measurements at a model air/water interface were quantified via pendant drop tensiometry to better understand foaming differences among the ingredients. The highest τ0 and resistance to drainage were observed for standard EWP, followed by EWP with added 0.1% (w/w) sodium lauryl sulfate, and then WPI. Addition of 25% (w/w) sucrose increased τ0 and drainage resistance of the EWP-based ingredients, whereas it decreased τ0 of WPI foams and minimally affected their drainage rates. These differing sugar effects were reflected in the interfacial rheological measurements, as sucrose addition increased the dilatational elasticity for both EWP-based ingredients, while decreasing this parameter for WPI. Previously observed relationships between τ0 and interfacial rheology did not hold across the protein types; however, these measurements did effectively differentiate foaming behaviors within EWP-based ingredients and within WPI. Interfacial data was also collected for purified β-lactoglobulin (β-lg) and ovalbumin, the primary proteins of WPI and EWP, respectively. The addition of 25% (w/w) sucrose increased the dilatational elasticity for adsorbed layers of β-lg, while minimally affecting the interfacial rheology of adsorbed ovalbumin, in contrast to the response of WPI and EWP ingredients. These experiments underscore the importance of utilizing the same materials for interfacial measurements as used for foaming experiments, if one is to properly infer interfacial information/mechanisms and relate this information to bulk foaming measurements. The effects of protein concentration and measurement time on interfacial rheology were also considered as they relate to bulk foam properties. This data should be of practical assistance to those designing aerated food products, as it has not been previously reported that sucrose addition improves the foaming characteristics of EWP-based ingredients while negatively affecting the foaming behavior of WPI, as these types of protein isolates are common to the food industry.}, number={2}, journal={COLLOIDS AND SURFACES B-BIOINTERFACES}, author={Davis, J.

Creep and recovery data were used to calculate the maximum and initial compliance and retardation time. Shredding defects of fines and adhesion to the blade were observed in commercial cheeses. Mozzarella did not adhere to the blade but did produce the most fines. Both Monterey Jack and process cheeses adhered to the blade and produced fines. Furthermore, adherence to the blade was correlated positively with tack energy and negatively with retardation time. Mozzarella cheese, with the highest fat and lowest protein contents, produced the most fines but showed little adherence to the blade, even though tack energy increased with fat content.

Dynamic oscillatory studies at small deformations indicated that the presence of varying concentrations of HPMC induces a softening effect (decrease in G′ and G″) in the gluten dough. During heating of HMPC–gluten mixtures, HPMC gelation only became evident when a minimum amount of HPMC was present (HPMC/gluten ratio was 0.075), conferring some strength to the gluten dough at 85 °C. The presence of HPMC did not modify the viscoelastic behaviour of gluten dough during cooling, however, at 25 °C, increased G′ and G″ were observed with HPMC. Gluten proteins increased their solubility in sodium dodecyl sulphate in the presence of HPMC, which besides the viscoelastic results, suggests that HPMC could interfere with the protein association and its further aggregation during heating, likely occupying the space of the proteins in the gluten network. Therefore, separate from interactions of starch and HPMC, the HPMC effect on bakery products could be partially due to the functional replacement of the gluten proteins in the gluten network. This effect is intensified after HPMC gelation, and also modifies the protein self-association during baking.}, number={7}, journal={FOOD HYDROCOLLOIDS}, author={Rosell, Cristina M. and Foegeding, Allen}, year={2007}, month={Oct}, pages={1092–1100} } @misc{foegeding_drake_2007, title={Invited review: Sensory and mechanical properties of cheese texture}, volume={90}, ISSN={["1525-3198"]}, DOI={10.3168/jds.2006-703}, abstractNote={Instrumental mechanical properties (instrumental tests that measure force and deformation over time) of cheese and cheese texture (sensory perception of cheese structure) are critical attributes.

Small-strain behaviors were primarily elastic with only slight frequency dependence.

Four texture attributes were used to describe the gels, including ‘hand small-strain force’, ‘hand springiness’, ‘hand fracture force’, and ‘hand fracture deformation’. Gels were differentiated similarly by sensory analysis and fracture properties (p≤0.05). Hand small-strain force and ‘hand-fracture force’ terms were capable of differentiating the gels equally as well, indicating that relative gel strength was perceived similarly with non-destructive and fracture causing deformations. Surprisingly, the hand force terms correlated more highly with fracture modulus (fractures stress/fracture strain) values (r≥0.98, p≤0.001) than fracture stress values (r=0.76–0.82, p≤0.05), suggesting sensory perception of force includes a coupling of stress and strain.

The two treatment ranges evaluated were adjusting pH (5.2‐5.8) with no added NaCl and adjusting the NaCl (0.2‐0.6 M) at pH 7. Gels (10% protein w/v) were formed by heating at 80C for 30 min. The large strain properties of fracture strain (γf), fracture stress (σf), and a measure of strain hardening (R0.3) were determined using a torsion method. Gel microstructure was evaluated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and gel permeability (Bgel). Overlaying σf and γf curves for pH and NaCl treatments demonstrated an overlap where gels of equal σf and γf could be formed by adjusting pH or NaCl concentration. The high fracture stress (σf∼ 23 kPa and γf∼ 1.86) pair conditions were pH 5.47 and 0.25 M NaCl, pH 7.0. The low fracture stress (σf∼ 13 kPa and γf∼ 1.90) pair conditions were pH 5.68 and 0.6 M NaCl, pH 7.0. The 0.25 M NaCl, pH 7 treatment demonstrated higher R0.3 values than the pH 5.47 treatment. When the sulfhydryl blocker n‐ethylmaleimide was added at 2 mM to the 0.25 M NaCl, pH 7 gel treatment, its rheological behavior was NSD (p>0.05) to the pH 5.47 gel treatment, indicating disulfide bond formation regulated strain hardening. Altering surface charge or counterions, and disulfide bonding, was required to produce gels with similar large strain rheological properties. An increase in gel permeability coincided with an increase in pore size as observed by SEM, independent of rheological properties.

Replacement of native whey protein isolate with WP-polymers increased fracture stress, fracture modulus, held water, and the translucency of gels. With both salt types, the addition of WP-polymers changed the gel structure from particulate to fine-stranded. However, the effect of WP-polymers on rheological properties was salt specific. Addition of 20–100% WP-polymers in the presence of 10 mM CaCl2 caused a continued increase in fracture stress. In contrast, protein dispersions containing 30 mM NaCl did not form self-supporting gels when ≥60% WP-polymers were added.

It was anticipated that the pathway of the sol-to-gel transition of whey protein dispersions is quite different from that of ordinary cross-linking polymers (e.g., percolation-type transition), since aqueous solutions of native whey proteins have been shown to be highly structured even before gelation, in our previous study. At 20 degrees C, aqueous dispersions of beta-lactoglobulin, the major whey protein, and those of whey protein isolate (WPI), a mixture of whey proteins, exhibited solid-like mechanical spectra, i.e., the predominant storage modulus G' over the loss modulus G", in a certain range of the frequency omega (1-100 rad/s), regardless of the presence or absence of added NaCl. The existence of the added salt was, however, a critical factor for determining transitions in mechanical spectra during gelation at 70 degrees C. beta-Lactoglobulin dispersions in 0.1 mol/dm(3) NaCl maintained the solid-like nature during the entire gelation process and, after passing through the gelation point, satisfied parallel power laws (G' approximately G" approximately omega(n)) that have been proposed for a critical gel (i.e., the gel at the gelation point) that possesses a self-similar or fractal network structure. In contrast, beta-lactoglobulin dispersions without added salt exhibited a transition from solid-like [G'(omega) > G"(omega)] to liquid-like [G'(omega) < G"(omega)] mechanical spectra before gelation, but no parallel power law behavior was recognized at the gelation point. During extended heating time (aging), beta-lactoglobulin gels with 0.1 mol/dm(3) NaCl showed deviations from the parallel power laws, while spectra of gels without added NaCl approached the parallel power laws, suggesting that post-gelation reactions also significantly affect gel network structures.

Gels formed at pH 7.0 and 6.5 were strong (fracture stress of 59−92 kPa) and rubbery (fracture strain of 1.7−1.2). Gels formed at pH 3.0 and 2.5 were weak (fracture stress of 17−19 kPa) and brittle (fracture strain of 0.33−0.39). Altering disulfide bond formation changed gel texture. Addition of a disulfide reducing agent (dithiothreitol) at concentrations ≥ 25 mM, at pH 7.0, caused the gel to weaken (>46% reduction in fracture stress) and become brittle (fracture strain of 0.30−0.32). Increasing the number of disulfide bonds in gels formed at pH values ≤3.5 increased fracture strain to 2.0 while causing a minor increase in fracture stress. Formation of disulfide bonds appears to be essential to the deformability of heat-induced whey protein gels.

The network structures formed in protein gelation contribute to the appearance, texture, water-holding and flavor delivery of the gel. Gel networks are classified as fine-stranded, particulate or mixed structures. In general, fine-stranded gels are transparent or translucent and have high water-holding properties, whereas particulate gels are opaque and have lower water-holding properties. Fine-stranded gels are formed when aggregation produces network strands with diameters representing one to several molecular diameters. Particulate gels are formed when there is aggregation prior to denaturation, or the aggregation of denatured molecules produces dispersed protein clusters with diameters 100-1000 times molecular diameters. Particulate gel networks appear to be formed from secondary aggregation of these clusters. The type of gel network formed is determined by pH, solutes and kinetics of gelation.}, booktitle={Functional properties of proteins and lipids}, publisher={Washington, DC: American Chemical Society}, author={Foegeding, E.

Because of the impact of temperature on all reactions of the cell, adaptations to fluctuations in temperature are possibly the most common. Widespread in the environment and well-equipped for cold temperature growth, psychrophilic and psychrotrophic microorganisms may yet make numerous adjustments when faced with temperatures lower than optimum. Phospholipid and fatty acid alterations resulting in increased membrane fluidity at lower temperatures have been described for many cold tolerant microorganisms while others may make no similar adjustment. While the enzymes of cold growing bacteria have been less extensively studied than those of thermophilic bacteria, it appears that function at low temperature requires enzymes with flexible conformational structure, in order to compensate for lower reaction rates. In many organisms, including psychrophilic and psychrotrophic bacteria, specific sets of cold shock proteins are induced upon abrupt shifts to colder temperatures. While this cold shock response has not been fully delineated, it appears to be adaptive, and may function to promote the expression of genes involved in translation when cells are displaced to lower temperatures. The cold shock response of Escherichia coli has been extensively studied, and the major cold shock protein CspA appears to be involved in the regulation of the response. Upon cold shock, the induction of CspA and its counterparts in most microorganisms studied is prominent, but transient; studies of this response in some psychrotrophic bacteria have reported constitutive synthesis and continued synthesis during cold temperature growth of CspA homologues, and it will be interesting to learn if these are common mechanisms of among cold tolerant organisms. Psychrotrophic microorganisms continue to be a spoilage and safety problem in refrigerated foods, and a greater understanding of the physiological mechanisms and implications of cold temperature adaptation and growth should enhance our ability to design more effective methods of preservation.}, number={12}, journal={JOURNAL OF FOOD PROTECTION}, author={Berry, ED and Foegeding, PM}, year={1997}, month={Dec}, pages={1583–1594} } @article{sherwin_foegeding_1997, title={The effects of CaCi2 on aggregation of whey proteins}, volume={52}, number={2}, journal={Milchwissenschaft [Milk Science International]}, author={Sherwin, C.

Gels had a linear relationship between shear stress and strain when deformed to fracture; thus small strain (storage modulus, G′) and large strain (fracture modulus, Gf) moduli were equivalent. Non-fracture and fracture tests showed that gels maintained an entropy (rubber) elastic response over all testing temperatures (10–80°C). Shear stress at fracture was independent of temperature, whereas shear strain at fracture decreased as temperature increased. This was associated with increased thermal motion strains decreasing the amount of mechanically induced strain required for fracture.
