Effect of adsorbent and acidulants on enzymatic browning of sugarcane juice.

ABSTRACT: Enzymatic browning is a major factor affecting the quality of sugarcane juice, mainly due to the activities of polyphenol oxidase (PPO) and peroxidase (POD). Effect of bentonite (0-1%, w/v) on the activities of these enzymes, when employed alone and also in combination with acidulants, was determined. Bentonite alone could reduce the activities of PPO and POD enzymes to 160 and 24.2 u/mL, respectively. The PPO and POD activity was completely inhibited below pH 4.1 when ascorbic acid was used alone or in combination with bentonite. However, PPO and POD activity was inhibited to 60 and 51 u/mL, respectively, at pH 3.7 when citric acid was used individually and to 112 and 15.36 u/mL, respectively, when employed along with bentonite. In addition, color changes at 4 and 10 °C were measured during the storage of sugarcane juice.

Melatonin in Apples and Juice: Inhibition of Browning and Microorganism Growth in Apple Juice.

Project description:Synthetic melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine, MT) is popular in the US and Asian markets as a health supplement. Here, we identified a naturally occurring melatonin source in apple juice. Melatonin was present in all 18 apple cultivars tested. The highest melatonin level of the edible part of apple was detected in the apple peel. The melatonin content in 'Fuji' apple juice is comparable to the level of its flesh. Melatonin was consumed during the process of juicing due to its interaction with the oxidants. Melatonin addition significantly reduced the juice color change to brown (browning). The mechanism is that melatonin scavenges the free radicals, which was indicated by the ASBT analysis; therefore, inhibiting the conversion of o-diphenolic compounds into quinones. Most importantly, melatonin exhibited powerful anti-microorganism activity in juice. The exact mechanisms of this action are currently unknown. These effects of melatonin can preserve the quality and prolong the shelf life of apple juice. The results provide valuable information regarding commerciall apple juice processing and storage.

Kinetic Characterization and Effect of Immobilized Thermostable ?-Glucosidase in Alginate Gel Beads on Sugarcane Juice.

Project description:A thermostable ?-glucosidase was effectively immobilized on alginate by the method of gel entrapment. After optimization of immobilized conditions, recovered enzyme activity was 60%. Optimum pH, temperature, kinetic parameters, thermal and pH stability, reusability, and storage stability were investigated. The K m and V max for immobilized ?-glucosidase were estimated to be 5.0?mM and 0.64?U/ml, respectively. When comparing, free and immobilized enzyme, change was observed in optimum pH and temperature from 5.0 to 6.0 and 60°C to 80°C, respectively. Immobilized enzyme showed an increase in pH stability over the studied pH range (3.0-10.0) and stability at temperature up to 80°C. The storage stability and reusability of the immobilized ?-glucosidase were improved significantly, with 12.09% activity retention at 30°C after being stored for 25?d and 17.85% residual activity after being repeatedly used for 4 times. The effect of both free and immobilized ?-glucosidase enzyme on physicochemical properties of sugarcane juice was also analyzed.

Hydrogen Sulfide Inhibits Enzymatic Browning of Fresh-Cut Chinese Water Chestnuts.

Project description:This work investigates the role of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) in the browning and regulating the antioxidant defensive system in fresh-cut Chinese water chestnuts. The samples were fumigated with 0, 10, and 15 μl L-1 of H2S and stored at 10°C for 8 days. The results indicated that the H2S treatment significantly inhibited the browning of fresh-cut Chinese water chestnuts, reduced superoxide anion ( O2·- ) production rate and H2O2 content accumulation, promoted the increase of total phenol content, and enhanced activities of catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), ascorbate peroxidase (APX), and glutathione reductase (GR) (P < 0.05). On the other hand, phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL), polyphenol oxidase (PPO), and peroxidase (POD) activities remained at a low level in the H2S treatment (P < 0.05). This result suggested that H2S treatment might be a promising approach to inhibit browning and prolong the shelf life by enhancing oxidation resistance and inhibiting browning enzyme activity of fresh-cut Chinese water chestnuts during storage. Among them, the 15 μl L-1 H2S treatment had the best effect on fresh-cut Chinese water chestnuts.

Effective Adsorption of Colorants from Sugarcane Juice by Bagasse-Based Biochar-Hydroxyapatite Composite

Project description:The clarification of sugarcane juice is a crucial stage in the sugar manufacturing process, as it affects evaporator performance, sugar quality and yield. The emergence of environmentally friendly and efficient adsorption technology has resulted in widespread interest in carbon-based materials. However, their low adsorption capacity and reusability make them unsuitable for processing sugarcane juice. Here, we provide a cost-effective and sustainable method to dope hydroxyapatite (HAP) nanoparticles on porous carbon (BBC) derived from sugarcane bagasse (BBC-HAP). The composite shows excellent adsorption capacity for color extract from sugarcane juice of 313.33 mg/g, far more effective than the commercially available carbon-based adsorbents. Isotherm studies show that the adsorption of BBC-HAP composite to the colorants is a monolayer process. The pseudo-first-order (PFO) and pseudo-second-order (PSO) kinetic models demonstrate that the adsorption process is dominated by chemisorption and supplemented by physical adsorption.

New insight on enzymatic browning mechanism by comparative transcriptome analysis of romaine lettuce cultivars with different browning potentials

Project description:Enzymatic browning on the cut edge of lettuce significantly limits its quality and shelf life. To characterize its molecular mechanisms, we performed comparative transcriptome analysis of three Romaine lettuce cultivars, Parris Island Cos (PC) with low browning potential, Tall Guzmaine (TG) with high degree of browning and Clemente (CL), a medium degree of browning cultivar derived from TG x PC. Before cutting, the phenylpropanoid and oxidative stress genes, such as PAL1, MYB1 and PPO were up-regulated in PC as compared to TG, while the expressions of genes involved in auxin, cytokinin hormone signalings and defense, such as ARF, AHP and PTI in PC were higher than TG. The transcript levels of all these genes in CL were somewhere between TG and PC. On day 3 after cutting when browning was shown up in TG, the expression of these phenylpropanoid and oxidative stress genes were remarkably increased in all three cultivars, even though their levels in TG were still higher than those in PC and CI. In comparison, expressions of the hormone and defense genes were reduced in all three cultivars, but their levels in PC were higher than CI and TG. Exogenous application of IAA and 6-BA inhibited lettuce browning possibly by alleviating the burst of those browning related genes, such as PAL1 and PPO1. These results demonstrate that lettuce tissue browning is controlled by reduced growth hormone (mainly auxin) level and increased phenolics biosynthesis and oxidation. This study provides the useful knowledge and functional markers for lettuce breeders and industry to select low tissue browning cultivar and manage lettuce quality during storage and processing.

Effect of formulation and baking conditions on the structure and development of non-enzymatic browning in biscuit models using images.

Project description:The aim of this research was to determine the effect of composition (dietary fiber = DF, fat = F, and gluten = G) and baking time on the target microstructural parameters that were observed using images of potato and wheat starch biscuits. Microstructures were studied Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). Non-enzymatic browning (NEB) was assessed using color image analysis. Texture and moisture analysis was performed to have a better understanding of the baking process. Analysis of images revealed that the starch granules retained their native form at the end of baking, suggesting their in complete gelatinization. Granules size was similar at several different baking times, with an average equivalent diameter of 9 and 27 µm for wheat and potato starch, respectively. However, samples with different levels of DF and G increased circularity during baking to more than 30%, and also increasing hardness. NEB developed during baking, with the maximum increase observed between 13 and 19 min. This was reflected in decreased luminosity (L*) values due to a decrease in moisture levels. After 19 min, luminosity did not vary significantly. The ingredients that are used, as well as their quantities, can affect sample L* values. Therefore, choosing the correct ingredients and quantities can lead to different microstructures in the biscuits, with varying amounts of NEB products.

Use of Ionic Liquid Pretreated and Fermented Sugarcane Bagasse as an Adsorbent for Congo Red Removal.

Project description:A large amount of industrial wastewater containing pollutants including toxic dyes needs to be processed prior to its discharge into the environment. Biological materials such as sugarcane bagasse (SB) have been reported for their role as adsorbents to remove the dyes from water. In this study, the residue SB after fermentation was utilized for the dye removal. A combined pretreatment of NaOH and methyltrioctylammonium chloride was given to SB for lignin removal, and the pretreated SB was utilized for cellulase production from Bacillus aestuarii UE25. The strain produced 118 IU mL-1 of endoglucanse and 70 IU mL-1 of β-glucosidase. Scanning electron microscopy and FTIR spectra showed lignin and cellulose removal in fermented SB. This residue was utilized for the adsorption of an azo dye, congo red (CR). The thermodynamic, isotherm and kinetics studies for the adsorption of CR revealed distinct adsorption features of SB. Untreated SB followed Langmuir isotherm, whereas pretreated SB and fermented SB obeyed the Freundlich isotherm model. The pseudo-second-order model fitted well for the studied adsorbents. The results of thermodynamic studies revealed spontaneous adsorption with negative standard free energy values. Untreated SB showed a 90.36% removal tendency at 303.15 K temperature, whereas the adsorbents comprised of pretreated and fermented SB removed about 98.35% and 97.70%, respectively. The study provided a strategy to utilize SB for cellulase production and its use as an adsorbent for toxic dyes removal.

Polyphenol oxidase and enzymatic browning in apricot (<i>Prunus armeniaca</i> L.): Effect on phenolic composition and deduction of main substrates.

Project description:In this study, we investigate the effect of enzymatic browning on the phenolic composition of apricot in vivo and in vitro. The in vitro browning was caused by the recombinant latent apricot polyphenol oxidase (L-PaPPO). Successful heterologous expression of PaPPO in Escherichia coli yielded substantial amounts of enzyme containing both copper ions in the catalytic active site. The expressed L-PaPPO was characterized with regard to its molecular mass (56531.3 Da), pH optimum (7.0), activation by SDS, and enzyme kinetics. LC-MS/MS was used to compare the phenolic profiles of brown and non-brown apricots. The browning reactions did significantly decrease total phenolics and antioxidant capacity (measured with DPPH and CUPRAC assays). Catechin, epicatechin, and B-type procyanidins were the individual phenolics most affected by browning, followed by chlorogenic and neochlorogenic acid. These phenolics are most likely the main endogenous substrates of L-PaPPO, as they were oxidized much faster than the other identified phenolics.

Xylan extraction from pretreated sugarcane bagasse using alkaline and enzymatic approaches.

Project description:Background:New biorefinery concepts are necessary to drive industrial use of lignocellulose biomass components. Xylan recovery before enzymatic hydrolysis of the glucan component is a way to add value to the hemicellulose fraction, which can be used in papermaking, pharmaceutical, and food industries. Hemicellulose removal can also facilitate subsequent cellulolytic glucan hydrolysis. Results:Sugarcane bagasse was pretreated with an alkaline-sulfite chemithermomechanical process to facilitate subsequent extraction of xylan by enzymatic or alkaline procedures. Alkaline extraction methods yielded 53% (w/w) xylan recovery. The enzymatic approach provided a limited yield of 22% (w/w) but produced the xylan with the lowest contamination with lignin and glucan components. All extracted xylans presented arabinosyl side groups and absence of acetylation. 2D-NMR data suggested the presence of O-methyl-glucuronic acid and p-coumarates only in enzymatically extracted xylan. Xylans isolated using the enzymatic approach resulted in products with molecular weights (Mw) lower than 6 kDa. Higher Mw values were detected in the alkali-isolated xylans. Alkaline extraction of xylan provided a glucan-enriched solid readily hydrolysable with low cellulase loads, generating hydrolysates with a high glucose/xylose ratio. Conclusions:Hemicellulose removal before enzymatic hydrolysis of the cellulosic fraction proved to be an efficient manner to add value to sugarcane bagasse biorefining. Xylans with varied yield, purity, and structure can be obtained according to the extraction method. Enzymatic extraction procedures produce high-purity xylans at low yield, whereas alkaline extraction methods provided higher xylan yields with more lignin and glucan contamination. When xylan extraction is performed with alkaline methods, the residual glucan-enriched solid seems suitable for glucose production employing low cellulase loadings.

Changes in Browning Degree and Reducibility of Polyphenols during Autoxidation and Enzymatic Oxidation.

Project description:In the present study, the browning degree and reducing power of browning products of catechin (CT), epicatechin (EC), caffeic acid (CA), and chlorogenic acid (CGA) in autoxidation and enzymatic oxidation were investigated. Influencing factors were considered, such as pH, substrate species and composition, and eugenol. Results show that polyphenols' autoxidation was intensified in an alkaline environment, but the reducing power was not improved. Products of enzymatic oxidation at a neutral pH have higher reducing power than autoxidation. In enzymatic oxidation, the browning degree of mixed substrates was higher than that of a single polyphenol. The reducing power of flavonoid mixed solution (CT and EC) was higher than those of phenolic acids' (CA and CGA) in autoxidation and enzymatic oxidation. Eugenol activity studies have shown that eugenol could increase autoxidation browning but inhibit enzymatic browning. Activity test and molecular docking results show that eugenol could inhibit tyrosinase.
