AbstractThe effects of high-pressure processing (HPP) and heat treatment on the digestibility of protein and starch in pea protein concentrate (PPC) were investigated. Samples of PPC with 5% (5 P) and 15% (15 P) protein were treated by HPP (600 MPa/5 °C/4 min) or heat (95 °C/15 min) and their in vitro static and dynamic digestibility were compared to untreated controls. HPP-treated PPC underwent a greater degree of proteolysis and showed different peptide patterns after static gastric digestion compared to untreated and heat-treated PPC. Differences in protein digestibility among treatments during dynamic digestion were only significant (p < 0.05) during the first 20 min of jejunal, ileal, and total digestion for 5 P, and during the first 60 min of ileal digestion for 15 P. Neither static nor dynamic starch digestibility were dependent on treatment. HPP did not reduce trypsin inhibitor activity, whereas heat treatment reduced it by ~70%. HPP-induced structural modifications of proteins and starch did not affect their overall in vitro digestibility but enhanced gastric proteolysis.

This study examined the effects of high-pressure processing (HPP) on microbial shelf-life, starch contents, and starch gelatinization characteristics of pigeon pea milk. HPP at 200 MPa/240 s, 400 MPa/210 s, and 600 MPa/150 s reduced the count of Escherichia coli O157:H7 in pigeon pea milk by more than 5 log CFU/mL. During the subsequent 21-day refrigerated storage period, the same level of microbial safety was achieved in both HPP-treated and high-temperature short-time (HTST)-pasteurized pigeon pea milk. Differential scanning calorimetry and scanning electron microscope revealed that HPP at 600 MPa and HTST caused a higher degree of gelatinization in pigeon pea milk, with enthalpy of gelatinization (∆H) being undetectable for both treatments. In contrast, HPP at 400 MPa led to an increase in the onset temperature, peak temperature, and conclusion temperature, and a decrease in ∆H, with gelatinization percentages only reaching 18.4%. Results of an in vitro digestibility experiment indicate that maximum resistant starch and slowly digestible starch contents as well as a decreased glycemic index were achieved with HPP at 400 MPa. These results demonstrate that HPP not only prolongs the shelf-life of pigeon pea milk but also alters the structural characteristics of starches and enhances the nutritional value.

The effect of heat treatment and germination on the proximate and mineral composition, HCH, tannins, phytic acid and the in vitro protein digestibility of Mucuna utilis seeds were studied. The raw seeds had a protein content of 35.4%, 7.7% crude fibre, 3.2% ether extract, 5.8% ash and 47.9% carbohydrates on a dry matter basis. The germinated and dehulled seeds had 40.5% crude protein 2.2% crude fibre, 3.4% ether extract, 7.0% ash 47.0% carbohydrates, while the heat -treated seeds had 34.4% crude protein, 11.9% crude fibre, 3.3% ether extract, 9.4% ash and 41.1% carbohydrates. Potassium and iron were the most abundant minerals while the least were sodium and copper. Germination caused a reduction in the levels of all minerals while heat treatment also caused a reduction in the levels of the minerals but with exception of Ca, Mg and Zn. Processing caused a reduction in all the levels of anti-nutritional factors assayed. The in-vitro protein digestibility of the raw seeds was 89.4%; 91.7% for the heat-treated seeds and 76.0% for the germinated seeds.

Black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) are gaining importance in animal feeding due to their ability to upcycle low-value agroindustry by-products into high-protein biomass. The present study evaluated the nutritional composition of BSFL reared on brewer’s by-product (BBP) and the impact of thermal (90 °C for 10/15 min) and high-pressure processing (HPP; 400/600MPa for 1.5/10 min) treatments on the microbial levels and in vitro digestibility in both ruminant and monogastric models. BBP-reared BSFL contained a high level of protein, amino acids, lauric acid, and calcium, and high counts of total viable counts (TVC; 7.97), Enterobacteriaceae (7.65), lactic acid bacteria (LAB; 6.50), and yeasts and moulds (YM; 5.07). Thermal processing was more effective (p < 0.05) than any of the HPP treatments in reducing TVC. Both temperature of 90 °C and pressure of 600 MPa reduced the levels of Enterobacteriaceae, LAB, and YM below the detection limit. In contrast, the application of the 400 MPa showed a reduced inactivation (p < 0.05) potential. Heat-treated samples did not result in any significant changes (p > 0.05) on any of the in vitro digestibility models, whereas HPP showed increased and decreased ruminal and monogastric digestibility, respectively. HPP did not seem to be a suitable, cost-effective method as an alternative to heat-processing for the large-scale treatment of BSFL.

The study aimed to analyze pH and heat treatment’s effect in modulating the release of peptides with antioxidant activity after simulated gastrointestinal (GI) digestion of Egg white powder (EWP). EWP samples with neutral (EWPN) and alkaline (EWPA) pH were heat-treated at 20, 60, and 90 °C and analyzed for protein aggregation, solubility, and GI digestibility. Heat treatment decreased solubility and induced protein aggregation, which was higher for EWPN as compared to EWPA. The unfolding of EWPA proteins at 60 °C exhibited a higher GI digestibility and antioxidant activity via Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC) assay as compared to EWPN. Interestingly, a reverse trend was observed in the cellular antioxidant assay, and the GI-digest of EWPN exhibited a higher antioxidant activity. The LC-MS/MS analysis are in concordance with cellular antioxidant activity assay and showed a higher intensity for peptides with potential antioxidant activity in the GI-digest of EWPN. The results indicate that heat treatment but not the pH is a critical factor in improving the protein digestibility and releasing peptides with antioxidant activity after GI digestion.

Commercially available canola meal (CM) was moist heat treated at 127 °C with steam-pressure of 117 kPa for 15, 30, 45, 60 and 90 min. The effect of moist heat treatment of CM on rumen degradability and lower gastrointestinal (GI) tract digestibility of rumen escape dry matter (DM) and nitrogen (N) was determined using three rumen and two duodenal cannulated steers. Rumen degradability was estimated by incubating sample-filled small nylon bags in the rumen of steers for 10 and 16 h. Lower GI tract digestibility was estimated using a sequence of ruminal in situ incubation, in vitro incubation in an acid-pepsin solution and a mobile nylon bag technique. DM and N degradation of treated CM were significantly (P < 0.01) reduced in the rumen while the digestibility of DM and N in the lower GI tract was increased at all treatment times. At 16 h incubation, N disappearance declined in the rumen from 74.4 to 18.9% and increased in the lower GI tract from 16.2 to 64.2% for control and for CM heat treated for 45 min, respectively. Analysis of heat treated CM showed a significant reduction (P < 0.01) in the soluble N while the concentration of pepsin insoluble N, acid detergent insoluble N and neutral detergent insoluble N were increased as heating time increased. These increases in general were not associated with a decrease in N disappearance in the lower GI tract. Moist heat treatment was effective in increasing rumen escape of CM protein without adverse effect on protein digestibility in the lower GI tract. Key words: Canola meal, rumen degradability, post ruminal digestion, moist heat treatment, insoluble nitrogen

Background: Antinutritional factors present in food may reduce the bioavailability of nutrients and cause harmful effects to human health. Aims: The aim of this study was to determine the effect of traditional processing methods on protein digestibility, nutrient and antinutrient constituents of seeds of Bauhinia petersiana. Subjects and Methods: The seeds were processed by soaking in water, boiling or roasting before analyzing protein digestibility, nutrient and antinutrient compositions. Results: Soaking resulted in no significant changes in the content of moisture, protein, fiber, phytates and trypsin inhibitor activity and significant reductions in fat, ash and tannins. Roasting resulted in no significant change in the content of moisture, ash, protein, and fiber and significant reductions in fat, phytates and trypsin inhibitor activity. Boiling resulted in a significant increase in the content of both protein and fiber and reduction in fat, ash, tannins, phytates and trypsin inhibitor activity. Mineral content of zinc, magnesium and calcium was not changed by soaking, roasting or boiling of the seeds. The calculated phytate: zinc molar ratios for both the raw and processed seeds were greater than 10, the limit for optimal absorption of zinc in the small intestine whereas phytate: iron molar ratios were less than 14, the limit for optimum absorption of iron in the intestines. In vitro digestibility of proteins in the seeds was increased when the seeds were soaked, roasted or boiled. Conclusions: Boiling the seeds of B. petersiana before consumption would effectively remove undesirable antinutrients while maintaining the nutrient content of the seeds and improving digestibility of proteins. Keywords: Legume, nutrient, antinutrient, digestibility, phytate.

SummaryTo improve the safety of plasma derived factor VIII (FVIII) concentrate, we introduced a final super heat treatment (100° C for 30 min) as additional virus inactivation step applied to a lyophilized, highly purified FVIII concentrate (100 IU/mg of proteins) already virus inactivated using the solvent/detergent (SID) method during the manufacturing process.The efficiency of the super heat treatment was demonstrated in inactivating two non-lipid enveloped viruses (Hepatitis A virus and Poliovirus 1). The loss of FVIII procoagulant activity during the super heat treatment was of about 15%, estimated both by clotting and chromogenic assays. No substantial changes were observed in physical, biochemical and immunological characteristics of the heat treated FVIII concentrate in comparison with those of the FVIII before heat treatment.

In this study, Chinese yam starch-water suspension (8%) were subjected to high-pressure homogenization (HPH) at 100 MPa for increasing cycle numbers, and its effect of on the physicochemical properties of the starch was investigated. Results of the polarizing microscope observations showed that the starch granules were disrupted (i.e. greater breakdown value) after HPH treatment, followed by a decrease in cross polarization. After three HPH cycles, the crystallinity of starch decreased, while the crystal type remained unaltered. Meanwhile, the contents of rapidly digestible starch and slowly digestible starch were increased. On the contrary, resistant starch content was decreased. Our results indicate that HPH treatment resulted in reduction of starch crystallinity and increase of starch digestibility.
