Chemical, physical, and functional properties of Thai indigenous brown rice flours.

ABSTRACT: Thai indigenous brown rice flours from Nakhon Si Thammarat, Thailand, namely Khai Mod Rin (KMRF) and Noui Khuea (NKRF), were assessed for quality aspects in comparison with brown Jasmine rice flour (JMRF) and commercial rice flour (CMRF) from Chai Nat 1 variety. All the rice flours had different chemical composition, physical characteristic, and techno-functionality. The KMRF, NKRF, and JMRF were classified as a low amylose type (19.56-21.25% dw). All rice flours had low total extractable phenolic content (0.1-0.3 mg GAE/g dw) with some DPPH● scavenging activity (38.87-46.77%). The variations in the bulk density (1.36-1.83 g/cm3), water absorption capacity (0.71-1.17 g/g), solubility (6.93-13.67%), oil absorption capacity (1.39-2.49 g/g), and swelling power (5.71-6.84 g/g) were noticeable. The least gelation concentration ranged from 4.0 to 8.0% where KMRF was easier to form gel than JMRF, and NKRF/CMRF. The foam capacity of the flours was relatively low (1.30-2.60%). The pasting properties differed among rice flours and the lowest pasting temperature was observed in CMRF. Overall, the chemical, physical, functional, and pasting qualities of flours were substantially influenced by rice variety. The findings offered fundamental information on Thai indigenous rice flour that can be used in food preparations for specific uses.

Mechanisms of Trichomes and Terpene Compounds in Indigenous and Commercial Thai Rice Varieties against Brown Planthopper.

Project description:Plant trichomes generally act as a physical defense against herbivore attacks and are present in a variety of plants, including rice plants. This research examined the physical and chemical defenses of rice plants against the brown planthopper (BPH), Nilaparvata lugens (Stål) (Hemiptera: Delphacidae). A total of 10 rice varieties were used in this study. An electron microscope was used to observe trichomes. Constitutive and induced volatile compound profiles were assessed using GC-MS analyses. The preference of BPH for volatiles from the 10 rice plants was tested using a two-choice arena olfactometer system. The density of prickle trichomes had a negative relationship with the BPH injury level. Without BPH infestation, the volatile of the most resistant rice variety (Rathu Heenati (RH)) was preferred by BPH than those of the other varieties, with the exception of Gled Plah Chawn. However, the relative BPH preference for volatiles from the RH variety decreased during BPH infestation. When rice plants were infested by BPH, the numbers of VOCs and these quantities decreased. In the RH variety, the emission of essentities found without BPH infestation ceased during infestation by BPH. During the BPH infestation, rice plants started to emit new VOCs that were not detected before the BPH infestation started. In conclusion, we discovered that rice plants defended against BPH by changing VOC components during BPH infestation and β-Sesquiphellandrene was likely the most effective component.

Bacterial compositions of indigenous Lanna (Northern Thai) fermented foods and their potential functional properties.

Project description:Many indigenous fermented foods of Northern Thailand and neighbouring regions have traditionally been known for their health benefits. In this study, we explored the communities of bacteria in selected fermented foods which are commonly consumed among ethnic groups around Northern Thailand, for which information on their microbial compositions or their functional properties is still limited. The selected food groups included Thua Nao (alkaline fermented soybean product), Nham (fermented pork sausage/loaf), Nam phak (fermented Chinese cabbage) and Miang (fermented leaves from Miang Tea trees). Bacteria in these fermented foods were isolated and enumerated. Bacterial communities were determined using a culture-independent (pyrosequencing) approach. Lactic acid bacteria were recovered from all of these fermented food samples, with levels ranging from 3.1 to 7.5 log CFU/g throughout the fermentation processes. Analysis of the 16S rRNA gene from the fermented food samples using 454-pyrosequencing resulted in 113,844 sequences after quality evaluation. Lactic acid bacteria were found in high proportions in Nham, Nam phak and Miang. Bacillus was predominant in Thua nao, in which significant proportions of Lactic acid bacteria of the family Leuconostocaceae were also found. Groups of lactic acid bacteria found varied among different food samples, but three genera were predominant: Lactococcus, Lactobacillus and Leuconostoc, of which many members are recognised as probiotics. The results showed that these traditional Thai fermented food products are rich sources of beneficial bacteria and can potentially be functional/probiotic foods.

Varietal distinctness in physical and engineering properties of paddy and brown rice from southern India.

Project description:Paddy and brown rice samples were investigated for its physical characteristics which would aid in designing of the equipment and apparatus for processing of grains as sorting, grading and transportation with ease. Significant difference was observed among the different physical properties as geometrical (length, breadth, thickness, equivalent diameter, sphericity, volume, surface area, aspect ratio) gravimetrical (bulk density, true density, porosity etc.) and frictional characteristic such as angle of repose, hygroscopic properties as moisture and water activity and color of paddy and brown rice kernels. Among geometrical properties length was found the maximum in paddy of Mapillai samba (8.21 mm) and Palkudavazhai brown rice (6.34 mm). Among flow properties, Mapillai samba displayed the maximum value for true density of paddy and brown rice varieties respectively. Hardness was reported in the range of (344.1 ± 14.4-594.88 ± 9.5 and 209.31 ± 4.00-395.99 ± 7.05 N) for different varieties of paddy and brown rice cultivars. The color of the brown rice was read as L*, a*, b* where it varied from 36.22 ± 0.71-61.71 ± 0.81, 4.00 ± 0.18-15.29 ± 0.48 and 16.59 ± 0.52-23.81 ± 0.15 respectively. Brown rice varieties can generally be categorized as short bold, long bold and medium slender as per their length and breadth ratio. The significant differences in physical properties of the various cultivars studied, emphasis on varying processing techniques. The physical properties of selected brown rice varieties studied are widely cultivated in southern India, owing to its high nutraceutical potentials.

Impact of Solubilized Substances on the Techno-Functional, Pasting and Rheological Properties of Ultrasound-Modified Rice, Tef, Corn and Quinoa Flours

Project description:The modification of flours by ultrasound (US) treatments requires excess water to suspend the sample to be treated, which must be removed after treatment to recover the ultrasonicated flour. The aim of this study was to determine the influence that the water removal method has on the final characteristics of US-treated gluten-free flours (rice, brown tef, corn and quinoa). US treatment parameters were constant, and two water removal methods were studied: freeze-drying and centrifugation + drying. The elimination of water by centrifugation resulted in the loss of solubilized compounds from the treated flours, which led to important differences between the final characteristics of US-treated flours. Ultrasonication resulted in the reduction of flours’ particle size and modification of their color parameters. Techno-functional properties were modified by US treatment, where the water removal method was more influential in whole grain samples (brown tef and quinoa). Few differences were found in thermal properties among pairs of US-treated samples, indicative that the effect caused to starch was mainly attributed to ultrasonication conditions than to the drying method. The water removal method markedly influenced the pasting properties of US-treated flours, resulting in lower profiles when freeze-drying was applied and higher profiles when flours were retrieved by centrifugation. Gels made with tef, corn and quinoa presented reduced tan(δ)₁ values after sonication, while gels made with rice did not show any modification. The water removal method is a decisive step in US treatments, defining the final characteristics of the treated matter, and having a great influence in the modification attributed to ultrasonication.

Quality attributes and cooking properties of commercial Thai rice noodles.

Project description:One of the most popular and abundant traditional foods in Asian countries is dried rice noodles. In fact, the demand for this product has increased steadily around the world in recent years. The qualities of rice noodles are directly related to the specific preferences of consumers. Hence, the present study aimed to determine the properties of eight commercial dried rice noodles that are readily available in most Thai markets. The specific properties under investigation and comparison in this study were proximate composition, amylose content, color, pasting quality, cooking quality, texture, and sensory properties. The specimens were divided into two groups: white (A, B, C, D, and E) and colored rice noodles (F, G, and H). The results showed that the proximate composition, amylose content, and color of both white and colored rice noodles were significantly different (p < 0.05). The lowest cooking losses in white and colored rice noodles were 0.11% (B) and 2.03% (G) (p < 0.05), respectively. Higher values of pasting (setback and final viscosities) and texture properties (tensile strength and extensibility) provided higher overall acceptability. The highest scores for acceptability of white and colored rice noodles were 7.00 (B) and 5.87 (H) (p < 0.05), respectively.

Genome-Wide Association Study of Starch Properties in Local Thai Rice.

Project description:Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is the main source of energy for humans and a staple food of high cultural significance for much of the world's population. Rice with highly resistant starch (RS) is beneficial for health and can reduce the risk of disease, especially type II diabetes. The identification of loci affecting starch properties will facilitate breeding of high-quality and health-supportive rice. A genome-wide association study (GWAS) of 230 rice cultivars was used to identify candidate loci affecting starch properties. The apparent amylose content (AAC) among rice cultivars ranged from 7.04 to 33.06%, and the AAC was positively correlated with RS (R2 = 0.94) and negatively correlated with rapidly available glucose (RAG) (R2 = -0.73). Three loci responsible for starch properties were detected on chromosomes 1, 6, and 11. On chromosome 6, the most significant SNP corresponded to LOC_Os06g04200 which encodes granule-bound starch synthase I (GBSSI) or starch synthase. Two novel loci associated with starch traits were LOC_Os01g65810 and LOC_Os11g01580, which encode an unknown protein and a sodium/calcium exchanger, respectively. The markers associated with GBSSI and LOC_Os11g01580 were tested in two independent sets of rice populations to confirm their effect on starch properties. The identification of genes associated with starch traits will further the understanding of the molecular mechanisms affecting starch in rice and may be useful in the selection of rice varieties with improved starch.

Flours from Swedish pulses: Effects of treatment on functional properties and nutrient content.

Project description:Despite the high nutritional profile in pulses, pulse consumption in Sweden is still low. However, the recent increase in consumption of sustainable and locally produced food in Sweden is driving demand for a versatile, functional pulse-based ingredient that can be incorporated into different food products. This study assessed different treatments (boiling, roasting, and germination) when preparing flour from domestically grown pulses (yellow pea, gray pea, faba bean, and white bean). Functional properties (water and oil absorption capacity, emulsion and foaming properties, and gelation concentration) of the flours produced following different treatments and their nutrient content (total dietary fiber, total choline, and folate content) were determined. Depending on pulse type, all treatments increased (p < .001) water absorption capacity up to threefold and gelation concentration up to twofold, whereas emulsion activity and foaming capacity decreased by 3%-33% and 5%-19%, respectively, compared with flour made from raw pulses. All treatments also had a significant effect (p < .001) on nutrient content. Total dietary fiber increased (p < .02) by 11%-33%, depending on treatment and pulse type. Boiling decreased (p < .001) total choline and folate content in all pulse flours, by 17%-27% and 15%-32%, respectively. Germination doubled folate content (p < .001) in flour from both pea types compared with flour from the raw peas. In conclusion, treated pulse flours could be useful in food applications such as coating batter, dressings, beverages, or bakery goods, to improve the content of fiber, total choline, and folate.

Assessment of Chemical, Physico-Chemical and Sensory Properties of Low-Sodium Beef Burgers Formulated with Flours from Different Mushroom Types.

Project description:It is now widely demonstrated that excessive salt consumption can cause various health problems, and meat products are among the foods most consumed with a high salt content. For that, the aim of this work was to assess the effects of the utilization of flours obtained from oyster mushrooms (Pleurotus ostreatus), button mushrooms (Agaricus bisporus), and portobello mushrooms (Agaricus brunnescen) as salt replacers on chemical, physicochemical, and sensory properties of beef burgers. The fat and protein content was not affected by the inclusion of mushroom flour, while the sodium content was reduced by 55-61% compared to the control sample. The control sample had the lowest values for cooking loss and shrinkage (12.29 and 18.69%, respectively) whilst the reformulated samples had higher values ranging between 16.08 and 18.88% for cooking loss, respectively, and between 19.55 and 28.25% for shrinkage, respectively. The reformulated samples showed higher lipid oxidation values (ranging from 0.18 and 0.20 mg malondialdehyde/kg sample) than the control sample. Sensorially, all parameters analyzed were not affected by the replacement of sodium chloride by the different mushroom flours. The use of flours obtained from different mushroom flours is a viable alternative to be used as sodium chloride replacers in the preparation of beef burgers.

Effect of genotypes and growth locations on composition and functional properties of amadumbe flours.

Project description:Amadumbe, known as taro is a traditional crop mainly grown for subsistence in Southern Africa. In this study, chemical composition and functional properties of nine amadumbe genotypes grown at two distinct locations were investigated. Carbohydrate contents (73-81%) of amadumbe genotypes were substantially high and varied with growth location. Protein contents ranged from 8-12% and fat was very low (less 1%) in all genotypes. Major minerals in flours were K, P, Mg and Ca, but these were present at varying levels depending on growth locations. Amadumbe flours showed slightly low mucilage contents (6-9%) across genotypes. However, genotypes with higher mucilage contents generally had higher water absorption capacities irrespective of growth locations. Genotype and growth location significantly affected the pasting properties of amadumbe flours. Peak viscosities varied between 83-242 RVU among genotypes. The pasting temperature of the genotypes were fairly high 87-94 °C across genotypes. This study data suggests that differences in environmental temperatures and amounts of rain falls received at growth location during the growing season could be some of the factors responsible for the variations in flour composition and consequently their functionality. Findings from this study are important for future improvement programme and for food application of amadumbe flour.
