Changing Wheat Bran Structural Properties by Extrusion-Cooking on a Pilot and Industrial Scale: A Comparative Study.

ABSTRACT: Extrusion-cooking can be used to change the techno-functional and nutrition-related properties of wheat bran. In this study, pilot-scale (BC21) and industrial-scale (BC45) twin-screw extrusion-cooking using different types of extrusion (single-pass, double-pass and acid extrusion-cooking) and process parameters (temperature, moisture) were compared for their impact on wheat bran. When applying the same process settings, the higher strong water-binding capacity, extract viscosity and extractability displayed by bran extruded using the industrial set-up reflected a more considerable wheat bran structure degradation compared to pilot-scale extrusion-cooking. This was attributed to the overall higher specific mechanical energy (SME), pressure and product temperature that were reached inside the industrial extruder. When changing the type of extrusion-cooking from single-pass to double-pass and acid extrusion-cooking, wheat bran physicochemical characteristics evolved in the same direction, irrespective of extruder scale. The differences in bran characteristics were, however, smaller on industrial-scale. Results show that the differentiating power of the latter can be increased by decreasing the moisture content and increasing product temperature, beyond what is possible in the pilot-scale extruder. This was confirmed by using a BC72 industrial-scale extruder at low moisture content. In conclusion, the extruder scale mainly determines the SME that can be reached and determines the potential to modify wheat bran.

Project description:Previous studies demonstrated that enzymatic hydrolysis enhances wheat bran (WB) biological properties. This study evaluated the immunostimulatory effect of a WB hydrolysate (HYD) and a mousse enriched with HYD (MH) before and after in vitro digestion on murine and human macrophages. The antiproliferative activity of the harvested macrophage supernatant on colorectal cancer (CRC) cells was also analyzed. MH showed significantly higher content than control mousse (M) in soluble poly- and oligosaccharides (OLSC), as well as total soluble phenolic compounds (TSPC). Although in vitro gastrointestinal digestion slightly reduced the TSPC bioaccessibility of MH, ferulic acid (FA) levels remained stable. HYD showed the highest antioxidant activity followed by MH, which demonstrated a greater antioxidant activity before and after digestion as compared with M. RAW264.7 and THP-1 cells released the highest amounts of pro-inflammatory cytokines after being treated with 0.5 mg/mL of digested WB samples. Treatment with digested HYD-stimulated RAW264.7 supernatant for 96 h showed the most anticancer effect, and spent medium reduced cancer cell colonies more than direct WB sample treatments. Although a lack of inner mitochondrial membrane potential alteration was found, increased Bax:Bcl-2 ratio and caspase-3 expression suggested activation of the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway when CRC cells were treated with macrophage supernatants. Intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) were positively correlated with the cell viability in CRC cells exposed to RAW264.7 supernatants (r = 0.78, p < 0.05) but was not correlated in CRC cells treated with THP-1 conditioned media. Supernatant from WB-stimulated THP-1 cells may be able to stimulate ROS production in HT-29 cells, leading to a decrease of viable cells in a time-dependent manner. Therefore, our present study revealed a novel anti-tumour mechanism of HYD through the stimulation of cytokine production in macrophages and the indirect inhibition of cell proliferation, colony formation, and activation of pro-apoptotic proteins expression in CRC cells.

Project description:Conventional wheat milling generates important volumes of wheat bran (WB), which is a concentrated source of polyphenols and insoluble fiber. In terms of health benefits and based on epidemiological and experimental evidence, these compounds contribute to reducing the risk of certain chronic pathologies. Protein concentration is the main quality factor conditioning wheat use in the agroindustry. When turning waste into feasible resources, it is essential to evaluate the variability of the raw material. The aim of this study was the evaluation of the impact of protein content in the valorization of WB based on its antioxidants, anti-inflammatory properties and glycemic index (GI). A significantly (p ≤ 0.05) lower content of phenolic compounds was found in the whole grain (WG) fractions, both free (FP) and bound (BP), as compared to the WB phenolic fractions, differences that ranged from 4- to 6-fold (538 to 561 mg GAE 100 g-1 in WG vs. 1027 to 1236 in WB mg GAE 100 g-1 in FP and 2245 to 2378 vs. 6344 to 7232 mg GAE 100 g-1 in BP). A significant (p ≤ 0.05) effect of the protein content on the resulting phenolic content and antioxidant capacity was observed, especially in WG, but also in WB, although in the latter a significant (p ≤ 0.05) negative correlation was observed, and increasing the protein content resulted in decreasing total phenolic content, antioxidants, and ferric-reducing capacities, probably due to their different types of proteins. The highest protein content in WB produced a significant (p ≤ 0.05) reduction in GI value, probably due to the role of protein structure in protecting starch from gelatinization, along with phytic acid, which may bind to proteins closely associated to starch and chelate calcium ions, required for α-amylase activity. A significant (p ≤ 0.05) effect of the protein content on the GI was also found, which may be explained by the structural effect of the proteins associated with starch, reducing the GI (21.64). The results obtained show the importance of segregation of WB in valorization strategies in order to increase the efficiency of the processes.
