Book Nutritional and Toxicological Consequences of Food Processing

Download or read book Nutritional and Toxicological Consequences of Food Processing written by Mendel Friedman and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-21 with total page 531 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A variety of processing methods are used to make foods edible; to pennit storage; to alter texture and flavor; to sterilize and pasteurize food; and to destroy microorganisms and other toxins. These methods include baking, broiling, cooking, freezing, frying, and roasting. Many such efforts have both beneficial and harmful effects. It is a paradox of nature that the processing of foods can improve nutrition, quality, safety, and taste, and yet occasionally lead to the formation of anti-nutritional and toxic compounds. These multifaceted consequences of food processing arise from molecular interactions among nutrients with each other and with other food ingredients. Since beneficial and adverse effects of food processing are of increasing importance to food science, nutrition, and human health, and since many of the compounds formed have been shown to be potent carcinogens and growth inhibitors in animals, I organized a symposium broadly concerned with the nutritional and toxicological consequences of food processing. The symposium was sponsored by the American Institute of Nutrition (AIN) -Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology (FASEB) for its annual meeting in Washington, D.C., April 1-5, 1990. Invited speakers were asked to develop at least one of the following topics: 1. Nutrient-nonnutrient interactions between amino acids, proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, minerals, vitamins, tannins, fiber, natural toxicants, etc. 2. Effects of radiation. 3. Thermally induced formation of dietary mutagens, antimutagens, carcinogens, anticarcinogens, antioxidants, and growth inhibitors. 4. Effects of pH on nutritional value and safety.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gluten-Free Cereal Products and Beverages is the only book to address gluten-free foods and beverages from a food science perspective. It presents the latest work in the development of gluten-free products, including description of the disease, the detection of gluten, and the labeling of gluten-free products as well as exploring the raw materials and ingredients used to produce gluten-free products. Identifying alternatives to the unique properties of gluten has proven a significant challenge for food scientists and for the 1% of the world's population suffering from the immune-mediated entropathy reaction to the ingestion of gluten and related proteins, commonly known as Celiac Disease. This book includes information on the advances in working with those alternatives to create gluten free products including gluten-free beer, malt and functional drinks. Food scientists developing gluten-free foods and beverages, cereal scientists researching the area, and nutritionists working with celiac patients will find this book particularly valuable. - Written by leading experts, presenting the latest developments in gluten-free products - Addresses Coeliac Disease from a food science perspective - Presents each topic from both a scientific and industrial point of view

Book In Vitro Digestibility of Starch in Sorghum Differing in Endosperm Hardness and Flour Particle Size

Download or read book In Vitro Digestibility of Starch in Sorghum Differing in Endosperm Hardness and Flour Particle Size written by and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In vitro digestibility of starch in sorghum grains differing in endosperm hardness and flour particle size was assayed by an Englyst resistant starch (RS) method. The starch digestibility increased as the particle size of flour decreased, but no significant difference in starch digestibility was observed among sorghum flours milled from grains with different hardness. To further understand the digestion of starch in sorghum, the effects of protein on starch digestion and amylose content in starch were determined. pH value was a factor affecting protein digestion since protein digestibility was higher at pH 2.0 than that at pH 1.3. Protein hydrolysis increased with time of pepsin treatment, leading to an increased starch digestion. RS content was 10.61-29.54% in native sorghum flours and 8.47-26.28% in isolated sorghum starch. The amounts of [Gamma]-kafirins extracted increased with time of pepsin treatment while [Alpha]- and [Beta]-kafirins decreased. The starch in sorghum flour with median hardness had a higher amylose content (23.9%) than the starch in hard and soft flours (~21%), which gave lower starch digestibility. Protein digestibility decreased after cooking while starch digestibility increased. Sulfhydryl groups decreased after cooking, indicating that disulfide bonds formed between protein molecules and may have formed a barrier for enzymes to access and digest starch. Confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) showed that the protein matrix was less evident after pepsin treatment. As a result, starch digestion increased after protein matrix was removed.

Book Effects of Fermentation by Yeast and Amylolytic Lactic Acid Bacteria on Grain Sorghum Protein Content and Digestibility

Download or read book Effects of Fermentation by Yeast and Amylolytic Lactic Acid Bacteria on Grain Sorghum Protein Content and Digestibility written by Christina Noel Day and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grain sorghum is an underutilized crop despite many advantages to its cultivation. A drought-tolerant plant with many pest-resistant cultivars, its applications are limited by problems with nutrient availability, particularly protein digestibility. Digestibility of grain sorghum protein is reduced by antinutritional compounds in the grain like tannins and phytates, and by moist-heat cooking. Some of these concerns can be mitigated by how the grain is processed. Fermentation is one processing method that can improve digestibility. Fermentation can also concentrate protein in a substrate. In this experiment, grain sorghum was subjected to different treatments and used as a substrate for yeast fermentation. Two species of yeast were tested; common baker's yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae), and an amylolytic strain (Lipomyces kononenkoae). Effects of pasteurization or sterilization of the substrate, nitrogen supplementation, amyloglucosidase addition, and co-culture with an amylolytic lactic acid bacteria Lactobacillus amylovorous were examined. After 48 hours of incubation, baker's yeast samples treated with enzyme increased in crude protein, from 9% in unfermented grain to approximately 27% after treatment. Nitrogen supplementation accelerates protein enrichment and is a significant factor at 24 hours of fermentation. Pepsin digestibility of fermented samples was improved compared to thermally processed controls. Phytates increased in concentrated high-protein samples, but the ratio of phytate to protein was reduced by both yeasts. Both types of yeast increased pepsin digestibility of sorghum protein compared to thermally processed control samples. L. kononenkoae reduced phytates in the substrate, but did not enrich protein content. The lactic co-culture had no significant effect on measured responses, but decreased incidence of spoilage and contamination of the fermentation samples. A fermentation with baker's yeast can concentrate sorghum protein in a substrate if the grain starch is hydrolyzed first, and can increase digestibility as well.
