The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of different high-intensity ultrasonication (HIU) pretreatment on the structure and properties of soybean protein isolate (SPI) as well as enzymatic hydrolysis of SPI by bromelain and antioxidant activity of hydrolysates. The HIU-treated SPI fractions showed a decrease in the proportion of α-helices and β-turns and an increase in the content of β-sheets and random coils based on Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. Near-infrared spectra and fluorescence spectra analyses provided support for the changes in secondary and tertiary structures of SPI after ultrasound treatment. The particle size of SPI decreased from 217.20 nm to 141.23 nm and the absolute zeta potential increased. Scanning electron microscopy showed that HIU treatment changed apparent morphology. Dynamic and static light scattering of ultrasonicated samples showed that SPI structure had changed from hard-sphere to hollow-sphere or polydisperse and monodisperse gaussian coils. HIU pretreatment significantly increased the hydroxyl-radical scavenging and the degree of hydrolysis of the SPI hydrolysates.

The high-pressure homogenization (HPH) treatment of soybean protein isolate (SPI) before enzymatic hydrolysis using bromelain was investigated. Homogenization pressure and cycle effects were evaluated on the enzymatic degree of hydrolysis and the antioxidant activity of the hydrolysates generated. The antioxidant activity of SPI hydrolysates was analyzed by 1,1-dipheny-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH). The sizes and structures of the SPI-soluble aggregate after HPH treatment were analyzed using dynamic and static laser light scattering. The changes in the secondary structure, as measured by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and the macromorphology of SPI, were measured by scanning electron microscope (SEM). These results suggested that the HPH treatment (66.65%) could increase the antioxidant activities of the SPI hydrolysates compared with the control (54.18%). SPI hydrolysates treated at 20 MPa for four cycles obtained higher DPPH radical-scavenging activity than other samples. The control was predicted to be a hard sphere, and SPI treatment at 10 MPa was speculated to be Gaussian coil, polydisperse, and then the high-pressure treated SPI became a hollow sphere. Changes in the secondary structures showed protein aggregate formation and rearrangements. The image of SPI varied from a globular to a clump structure, as observed by the SEM. In conclusion, combining HPH treatment and enzymolysis could be an effective way to improve the antioxidant activity of the SPI.

Edible films were prepared using soy protein isolate (4g/100g), oleic acid (0-2g/100g) and stearic acid (0-2g/100g). Effects of the type and ratio of fatty acids (oleic acid and stearic acid) on the thermal properties of soybean protein isolate-based films were investigated. The results indicated that the addition of oleic acid and stearic acid take a significant effect on the thermal stability of soybean protein isolate-based films, as may attribute to that oleic acid is an amphiphilic substance that interacts with both polar and hydrophobic sites on proteins, thus it could improve the functional properties of the films. Besides, the solid state and hydrophobic nature of stearic acid could help limit water diffusion in the matrix more efficiently when it is well-integrated in the matrix through the surfactant action of oleic acid.

The effect of FA and OFA on performances of the soybean protein-isolate/chitosan composite films was evaluated. The FA and OFA enhanced the tensile strength and thermal stability of the composite films significantly, while they reduced the water vapor permeability to 60.3 % and 72.8 % of the control respectively. Moreover, the OFA was more effective to enhance the tensile strength of the composite films than the FA.

This study investigated relationship between secondary structure and surface hydrophobicity of soy protein isolate (SPI) subjected to a thermal treatment at 70~90°C. Heat denaturation increased the surface hydrophobicity and surface hydrophobicity decreased as aggregate formed. Heat caused an increase in the relative amount ofα-helix structures and an overall decrease in the amount ofβ-sheet structures when compared with nontreated SPI. The relative amounts of secondary structures varied with time, temperature, and intensity of heat treatment applied. Theβ-sheet structure was most important for its significant role in denaturation of 7S globulin and following formed aggregates and even in denaturation of 11S globulin. The amount ofβ-sheet structure in SPI had an inverse correlation with the surface hydrophobicity when the temperature was kept below 90°C. Besides,β-turn structure increased asβ-7S/B-11S aggregate formated.

A soybean protein isolate (SPI) main chain grafted with methyl acrylate (MA) and methyl methacrylate (MMA) as a new thermoplastic copolymer (T-SPI) was prepared. The properties of the material were evaluated with DSC, FT-IR, and rotary rheometry. The results indicated that the monomer was grafted on SPI successfully. The T-SPI had a glass transition at about 66°C. T-SPI was a typical viscoelastic material, and its elastic ratio was 65.27%, the shear viscosity was very sensitive to temperature and the flowability of T-SPI was regulated by temperature.

The effect of ferulic acid (FA) and oxidized ferulic acid (OFA) on performances of the soybean protein-isolate/chitosan composite films was evaluated. The FA and OFA showed an excellent compatibility and miscibility of in the composite films, and leaded the surface more compact and smooth. The FA and OFA also enhanced the thermal stability of the composite films. The FA and OFA enhanced the performance of the composite films by raising the band energy of the crosslinked molecules.

The use of vegetable protein has been developed to increase the protein content of instant noodles. Indonesia is one of the countries that consumes noodles in second place after China. These conditions led to an increase in wheat imports. In an effort to increase the protein content in instant noodles and also reduce the need for wheat, alternative local raw materials are needed to substitute wheat flour. The aim of the study was to utilize tapioca and corn flour as a substitute for wheat flour in the manufacture of instant noodles, which added soybean protein isolate (SPI) and Na-alginate to increase protein content and physical properties. Factorial randomized block design (RBD) was used in this research, factor I was SPI and factor II Na-alginate. The treatment was repeated 3 times. The observational variations were analyzed for variance and continued with the tukey test with α≤ 5% if there was significant. The results showed that the addition of SPI 30% and Na-alginate up to 0.2% increased the protein content of instant noodles to 31.36 ± 0.39% - 34.44 ± 0.34%, water absorption for 5 minutes of cooking was 147 %, cooking time 6.16 ± 0.22 minutes. Overall, the instant noodle is in the category of rather like to like the taste, aroma, color, and texture. Composite flour (corn flour and tapioca) can substitute 50% of wheat flour to produce the instant noodles. The protein contain is 34.44 %, with a contribution of 30% SPI and Na-alginate 0.2%.
