Assessment of Healthy and Harmful Maillard Reaction Products in a Novel Coffee Cascara Beverage: Melanoidins and Acrylamide.

ABSTRACT: Our research aimed to evaluate the formation of Maillard reaction products in sun-dried coffee cascara and their impact on the safety and health promoting properties of a novel beverage called "Instant Cascara" (IC) derived from this coffee by-product. Maillard reaction products in sun-dried coffee cascara have never been reported. "Instant Cascara" (IC) extract was obtained by aqueous extraction and freeze-drying. Proteins, amino acids, lipids, fatty acid profile, sugars, fiber, minerals, and vitamins were analyzed for its nutritional characterization. Acrylamide and caffeine were used as chemical indicators of safety. Colored compounds, also called melanoidins, their stability under 40 °C and in light, and their in vitro antioxidant capacity were also studied. A safe instant beverage with antioxidant properties was obtained to which the following nutritional claims can be assigned: "low fat", "low sugar" "high fiber" and "source of potassium, magnesium and vitamin C". For the first time, cascara beverage color was attributed to the presence of antioxidant melanoidins (>10 kDa). IC is a potential sustainable alternative for instant coffee, with low caffeine and acrylamide levels and a healthy composition of nutrients and antioxidants.

Project description:Novel melanoidins are produced by the Maillard reaction. Here, melanoidins with high antibacterial activity were tested by examining various combinations of reducing sugars and amino acids as reaction substrates. Twenty-two types of melanoidins were examined by combining two reducing sugars (glucose and xylose) and eleven l-isomers of amino acids (alanine, arginine, glutamine, leucine, methionine, phenylalanine, proline, serine, threonine, tryptophan, and valine) to confirm the effects of these melanoidins on the growth of Listeria monocytogenes at 25°C. The melanoidins produced from the combination of d-xylose with either l-phenylalanine (Xyl-Phe) or l-proline (Xyl-Pro), for which absorbance at 420 nm was 3.5 ± 0.2, completely inhibited the growth of L. monocytogenes at 25°C for 48 h. Both of the melanoidins exhibited growth inhibition of L. monocytogenes which was equivalent to the effect of nisin (350 IU/mL). The antimicrobial spectrum of both melanoidins was also investigated for 10 different species of bacteria, including both Gram-positive and Gram-negative species. While Xyl-Phe-based melanoidin successfully inhibited the growth of Bacillus cereus and Brevibacillus brevis, Xyl-Pro-based melanoidin inhibited the growth of Salmonella enterica Typhimurium. However, no clear trend in the antimicrobial spectrum of the melanoidins against different bacterial species was observed. The findings in the present study suggest that melanoidins generated from xylose with phenylalanine and/or proline could be used as potential novel alternative food preservatives derived from food ingredients to control pathogenic bacteria. IMPORTANCE Although the antimicrobial effect of melanoidins has been reported in some foods, there have been few comprehensive investigations on the antimicrobial activity of combinations of reaction substrates of the Maillard reaction. The present study comprehensively investigated the potential of various combinations of reducing sugars and amino acids. Because the melanoidins examined in this study were produced simply by heating in an autoclave at 121°C for 60 min, the targeted melanoidins can be easily produced. The melanoidins produced from combinations of xylose with either phenylalanine or proline exhibited a wide spectrum of antibiotic effects against various pathogens, including Listeria monocytogenes, Bacillus cereus, and Salmonella enterica Typhimurium. Since the antibacterial effect of the melanoidins on L. monocytogenes was equivalent to that of a nisin solution (350 IU/mL), we might expect a practical application of melanoidins as novel food preservatives.

Project description:Glucose-lysine based Maillard reaction products (MRPs) are introduced to the human body via food ingestion or are synthesized in vivo. Depending on reaction conditions, they represent a mixture of compounds with diverse chemical structures and physiological properties. MRPs may also be a potential nutrient source for Salmonella, a major foodborne gastrointestinal pathogen. This study was designed to determine the growth and transcriptional responses of S. Typhimurium LT2 to MRPs generated at low water activity to simulate the reaction occurring during food processing and storage. Maillard reactions between N-α-acetyl-lysine and glucose were varied in time (4, 23, and 143 h) to generate sub-samples with prevailing Amadori compound, advanced glycation end products (AGEs), or melanoidines respectively. The addition of MRP up to 5 mg mL-1 to defined media with 0.4% glucose had no effect on S. Typhimurium LT2 growth. In media, where the MRP sub-samples (4 and 23 h) served as the only carbon source, MRP assimilation by S. Typhimurium LT2 was observed as secondary logarithmic growth phases (0.063 h-1 and 0.072 h-1) after the growth on glucose available in the MRP reaction mixtures (0.479 h-1). The MRPs sub-sample with the highest concentration of melanoidines (143 h) also supported S. Typhimurium LT2 growth (0.368 h-1). Of the three MRPs sub-samples, the Amadori compound was the preferred carbon source for S. Typhimurium LT2 as evidenced by its almost complete disappearance (98%). Decreases in AGEs (37%) and melanoidines (15%), when incubated with S. Typhimurium LT2, also occurred. Transcription profiles of the cells grown on the MRPs fractions revealed predominant up-regulation of genes associated with the functional groups of energy metabolism, fatty and phospholipid metabolism, cellular process, and regulatory functions, and general down-regulation of the genes in the groups of amino acid biosynthesis, protein synthesis and transcription, transport and binding proteins, and DNA metabolism. The carbon flow in tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle partitioned by the glyoxylate cycle appeared to play an essential role in the assimilation of glucose-lysine-derived MRPs. The high expression level of numerous genes encoding hypothetical proteins or proteins with unknown function suggested the presence of genes whose role in glucose-lysine MRPs catabolism in Salmonella remains to be determined.

Total bacterial RNA was isolated as previously described and the RNA samples were then converted to fluorescently-labeled cDNA and hybridized to S. Typhimurium microarrays version 5 (NIAID's Pathogen Functional Genomics Resource Center). Real-time PCR and physiological experiments were performed to validate the microarray data. In all supplementary files channel A = Cy3, channel B = Cy5.

Project description:The immune system provides host protection to infection with pathogenic organisms, while at the same time providing tolerance upon exposure to harmless antigens. Thus, an impaired immune function is associated with increased susceptibility to infections with increased disease severity and thereby necessitating the therapeutic use of antibiotics. Livestock performance and feed efficiency, in addition to their health status, are dependent on the microbial load of their gut, the barrier function of the intestinal epithelium and the activity of the mucosal immune system, all of which can be modulated by dietary components. The majority of feeds that are consumed in pets and livestock have been processed. Processing promotes a non-enzymatic reaction between proteins and sugars called Maillard reaction (MR). Maillard reaction products (MRPs) and advanced Maillard reaction products (AGEs) determine taste, smell, and color of many food products therefore the MR is highly relevant for the feed industry. MRPs interact with different types of immune receptors, including the receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) and immunomodulatory potential of feed proteins can be modified by Maillard reaction. This MR has become an important concern since MRPs/AGEs have been shown to contribute to increasing prevalence of diet-related chronic inflammatory states in the gut with negative health consequences and performance. The immunomodulatory effects of dietary MRPs and AGEs in livestock and pet animals are far less well-described, but widely considered to be similar to the relevant concepts and mechanisms obtained in the human field. This review will highlight immunological mechanisms underlying initiation of the innate and adaptive immune responses by MRPs/AGEs present in animal feeds, which are currently not completely understood. Bridging this knowledge gap, and taking advantage of progress in the human field, will significantly improve nutritional quality of feed and increase the prevention of diet-mediated inflammation in animals.
