Chickpea flour-based biofilms containing gallic acid to be used as active edible films

2019-07-10
Chickpea is an easily accessible nutritious legume. Besides, gallic acid is a widespread phenolic found in various plants. In this study, it is aimed to investigate the effects of pH (9 and 11), glycerol concentration (1 and 3% w/v of film solution) and gallic acid concentration (5 and 10% w/w of total solid) on color, opacity, mechanical strength, water vapor permeability (WVP), microstructure, chemical characteristic, antioxidant activity, and phenolic content of films. At pH 11, films are stronger, darker and have higher antioxidant activity. Higher glycerol concentration makes the films more flexible but less strong and more hydrophilic. Higher gallic acid concentration makes great contribution to the films by decreasing WVP but by increasing opacity, antioxidant activity, phenolic content, lightness, and elongation. Film containing glycerol of 1% and gallic acid of 10% and prepared at pH 11 was found to be a great combination for obtaining antioxidant rich edible composite films. HIGHLIGHTS

Understanding the role ofd-Alluloseand soy protein addition in pectin gels
Ates, Elif Gokcen; ÖZVURAL, EMİN BURÇİN; Öztop, Halil Mecit (Wiley, 2020-09-01)
D-Allulose (a monosaccharide and C3 epimer of fructose), one of the common rare sugars is getting attention due to its low caloric values. In this study, DAllulose was used as a replacement of sucrose at different ratios (D-Allulose/Sucrose: 35/0, 20/15, 10/25, 0/35) to formulate pectin-based soft confectionery gels. Soy protein isolate was also added to increase the protein content. Physical properties, such as hardness, moisture content, pH, and color, were measured for the gels. Higher hardness values we...
Pea protein properties are altered following glycation by microwave heating
Ertuğrul, Ülkü; Namlı, Serap; Taş, Ozan; Şümnü, Servet Gülüm; Öztop, Halil Mecit (2021-10-01)
Pea protein is often used in protein enriched diets due to its nutritional properties. Modifying its properties has been studied from many perspectives. Glycation, a non-enzymatic glycosylation reaction of proteins, is one of the modification strategies used to alter its properties like solubility and hydration ability. This study aims to investigate the extent and effect of glycation by MW heating with reducing sugars (glucose, fructose and allulose) on pea protein concentrate (PPC) by determining protein ...
Formulation and characterization of chia seed oil nanoemulsions
Kaya, Eda Ceren; Alpas, Hami; Department of Food Engineering (2019)
Chia seed is a good source of not only protein, dietary fiber and antioxidants but also polyunsaturated fatty acids, which are in higher amounts compared to other seedbased food sources. Nanoemulsions are colloidal dispersions that contain small particles, typically around 20-200 nm in diameter, that may not be distinctively visible since they do not scatter light strongly. Moreover, they have strong stability and can protect the embedded oil from oxidation. Thus, utilization of nanoemulsions from chia seed...
Utilization of lentil flour as a biopolymer source for the development of edible films
Aydogdu, AYÇA; Kırtıl, Emrah; Şümnü, Servet Gülüm; Öztop, Halil Mecit; Aydogdu, Yildirim (2018-06-15)
Lentils are one of the cheapest and most nutritional protein sources for vegetarians. Our objective in this study was to evaluate the feasibility of using lentil flour as a raw material for the development of edible films and to investigate the effects of the glycerol concentration (C-g=1%, 1.5%, and 2%) and process temperature (T-p; 70 and 90 degrees C) on the physical properties of these films. The films were characterized via their density; water solubility; thermal, morphological, and chemical character...
Immobilization of cholesterol oxidase in a conducting copolymer of thiophene-3-yl acetic acid cholesteryl ester with pyrrole
Çırpan, Ali; Toppare, Levent Kamil; YAGCI, Y (Informa UK Limited, 2003-01-01)
Cholesterol oxidase has been immobilized in conducting copolymers of thiophene-3-yl acetic acid cholesteryl ester with pyrrole (CM/PPy) and polypyrrole (PPy) via electropolymerization. p-Toluene sulphonic acid was used as the supporting electrolyte. Kinetic parameters (V-max and K-m) and operational stability of enzyme electrodes were investigated. Surface morphology of the films was examined by scanning electron microscope.
