Plant?based proteinaceous snacks: Effect of fermentation and ultrasonication on end?product characteristics

ABSTRACT: Abstract The study aimed at the development of a sufficient technology to improve sensory, textural, physical, and microbiological properties of peas snacks (Ps) using solid?state fermentation (SSF) and submerged fermentation (SMF) with two different lactic acid bacteria (LAB) strains (Lactobacillus casei LUHS210 and Lactobacillus uvarum LUHS245) for 24 hr and ultrasonication (10, 20, and 30 min). To ensure safety of the used technologies, microbiological characteristics and biogenic amines (BAs) content in treated Ps were analyzed. Additionally, a different salt content (3.6 and 1.0 g/100 g) was used for snacks preparation. The obtained results revealed that used treatments reduced enterobacteria in Ps, while in fermented Ps, yeast/moulds were not found. Ps with the lower salt content were more acidic and harder (0.90 mJ), and there was a significant effect (p < .05) due to the fermentation method, LAB strains, and ultrasonication on the texture of final product. Different salt content significantly affected the color coordinates of the Ps tested (p < .05). The predominant biogenic amines in Ps were phenylethylamine and spermidine. However, the reduction of some BAs after samples fermentation was observed. To conclude, acceptable formulations of Ps can be obtained with 1.0 g/100 g salt, and by using fermentation, as the end?product is more attractive to consumers than those prepared with 3.6 g/100 g salt and using ultrasonication. Solid?state and submerged fermentation with two different lactic acid bacteria strains (Lactobacillus casei LUHS210 and Lactobacillus uvarum LUHS245) and ultrasonication were applied for the development of a sufficient technology to improve sensory, textural, physical, and microbiological properties of plant?based peas snacks. To ensure safety of the used technologies, microbiological characteristics and biogenic amines content in pea snacks were analyzed. Acceptable formulations of pea snacks were obtained with 1.0 g/100 g salt and by using fermentation, as the end?product was more attractive to consumers than those prepared with 3.6 g/100 g salt and using ultrasonication.

Project description:Yeast products may serve as functional ingredients due to their benefits on host health but vary greatly in source, composition, and functionality, justifying research in host species of interest. In this study, a Saccharomyces cerevisiae fermentation product (SCFP) was investigated as a dietary supplement for adult dogs. Adult female beagles (n = 12; mean age = 3.3 ± 0.8 yr; mean BW = 10.3 ± 0.68 kg) were fed the same diet, but supplemented with three levels of SCFP (125, 250, and 500 mg/d) or a placebo (sucrose) via gelatin capsules in a replicated 4 × 4 Latin square design. Fecal samples for nutrient digestibility, fecal characteristics and microbial populations as well as blood samples for immune indices were collected after a 21-d adaptation phase in each period. A separate palatability test was conducted to examine palatability of an SCFP-containing diet (0.2% of diet). All data, except for palatability data, were analyzed by Mixed Models procedure of SAS (version 9.4). A paired t-test was conducted to analyze data from the palatability test. Supplementation of SCFP did not affect total tract apparent macronutrient and energy digestibilities or fecal characteristics. Fecal phenol and total phenol + indole concentrations decreased linearly with SCFP dosage (P < 0.05). Relative abundance of Bifidobacterium was greater (P < 0.05), while Fusobacterium was lower (P < 0.05) in SCFP-supplemented dogs. Total white blood cell counts were decreased by SCFP (P < 0.05). The percentage of natural killer cells and antigen-presenting cells were not altered by SCFP. However, when comparing control vs. all SCFP treatments, SCFP-supplemented dogs had greater (P < 0.05) major histocompatibility complex class II presenting B cell and monocyte populations than control dogs. IFN-γ secreting helper and cytotoxic T cells increased linearly with SCFP consumption (P < 0.05). Immune cells derived from SCFP-supplemented dogs produced less (P < 0.05) TNF-α than those from control dogs when cells were stimulated with agonists of toll-like receptors 2, 3, 4, and 7/8. A linear increase (P < 0.05) in serum IgE with SCFP dosage was noted. In the palatability test, a 1.9:1 consumption ratio was observed for the SCFP-containing diet vs. control diet, demonstrating a preference (P < 0.05) for SCFP. Results of this study suggest that SCFP supplementation may be beneficial to adult dogs by positively altering gut microbiota, enhancing immune capacity and reducing inflammation.

Project description:Fermented pastry products are produced by fermenting and baking multi-layered dough. Increasing our knowledge of the impact of the fermentation process during pastry making could offer opportunities for improving the production process or end-product quality, whereas increasing our knowledge on the sugar release and consumption dynamics by yeast could help to design sugar reduction strategies. Therefore, this study investigates the impact of yeast fermentation and different sugar concentrations on pastry dough properties and product quality characteristics. First, yeasted pastry samples were made with 8% yeast and 14% sucrose on a wheat flour dry matter base and compared to non-yeasted samples. Analysis of saccharide concentrations revealed that sucrose was almost entirely degraded by invertase in yeasted samples after mixing. Fructans were also degraded extensively, but more slowly. At least 23.6 ± 2.6% of the released glucose was consumed during fermentation. CO2 production during fermentation contributed more to product height development than water and ethanol evaporation during baking. Yeast metabolites weakened the gluten network, causing a reduction in dough strength and extensibility. However, fermentation time had a more significant impact on dough rheology parameters than the presence of yeast. In balance, yeast fermentation did not significantly affect the calculated sweetness factor of the pastry product with 14% added sucrose. Increasing the sugar content (21%) led to higher osmotic stress, resulting in reduced sugar consumption, reduced CO2 and ethanol production and a lower product volume. A darker colour and a higher sweetness factor were obtained. Reducing the sugar content (7%) had the opposite effect. Eliminating sucrose from the recipe (0%) resulted in a shortened productive fermentation time due to sugar depletion. Dough rheology was affected to a limited extent by changes in sucrose addition, although no sucrose addition or a very high sucrose level (21%) reduced the maximum dough strength. Based on the insights obtained in this study, yeast-based strategies can be developed to improve the production and quality of fermented pastry.
