- Description: The effect of flaxseed gum (FG) on the rheological and nonlinear stress response behaviors of mixed soy protein isolate (SPI)-flaxseed gum (FG) dispersions were studied. Results showed that the viscosity of the SPI-FG mixed dispersions increased significantly with increase in the FG concentration. Both the shear stress and the apparent viscosity values as a function of shear rate were fitted well using Power law model as expected. The frequency dependence of G′, G′′ and tan δ of soy protein isolate decreased as the FG concentration increased. The large amplitude oscillatory shear (LAOS) test and Fourier transform (FT) rheology analysis showed that the addition of flaxseed gum strongly affected the structure of the SPI-FG mixed dispersion system as shown by deformation of the nonlinear stress response curve and significantly altered magnitude of higher harmonic curve. The addition of FG increased the instantaneous strain softening effect of the SPI-FG mixed dispersion system. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.

- Description: A central composite design was employed to determine the optimum extraction condition to obtain higher yield, better color attribute as well as better rheological and emulsifying properties in pectin extracted from sugar beet pulp (SBP). A second-order polynomial model was developed for predicting the yield of sugar beet pulp pectin (SBPP) based on the composite design. Response surface methodology (RSM) was used to quantify the integral effect of three processing parameters (extraction temperature, time and pH) on yield, yield stress, color attribute (tint value) and emulsifying activity index (EAI). Through the frequency analysis it was found that the optimal temperature, time and pH value of the extraction were 93.7 °C, 3 h, and 1.21, respectively. The yield, yield stress and tint value of the SBPP extracted at the optimal condition were 24.45%, above 0.1 Pa and -6.0, respectively. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

- Description: The effect of addition of NaCl on rheological properties of suspensions containing vacuum freeze dried starch nanoparticles was studied. These starch nanoparticles were produced through high pressure homogenization and emulsion cross-linking technique. Rheological properties such as continuous shear viscosity, storage and loss moduli and creep-recovery were measured. The presence of NaCl at concentration (5-15%, w/v) increased viscosity marginally (p > 0.05) while at 20% (w/v) it significantly (p < 0.05) increased viscosity. The presence of NaCl enhanced heat stability and weakened gelling capacity of suspensions. NaCl concentration below 15% (w/v) marginally (p > 0.05) increased the storage and loss moduli of suspensions. At 20% (w/v), NaCl increased both moduli significantly (p < 0.05) within frequency range tested (0.1-10 rad/s). Creep-recovery behavior was affected by NaCl and recovery rate was the highest (98.6%) at 20% (w/v) NaCl. The Cross, Power Law and Burgers' models followed experimental shear viscosity, storage and loss moduli and creep-recovery data reasonably well ((R

- Description: Partially gelatinized starch was prepared by gelatinizing corn starch at 64-72°C followed by spray drying (inlet temperature, feed flow rate, air flow rate of 200°C, 7.2 ml/min and 0.375 m 3/h, respectively). The morphology, granule size, crystalline fraction, swelling power and gelatinizing properties of partially gelatinized starch were investigated and compared with those of native starch. The surface morphology of partially gelatinized starch granules was shriveled with multiple surface folds. The granule size of partially gelatinized starch was smaller than that of native corn starch. There was either complete absence of crystalline fraction in partially gelatinized starch or the extent of crystalline fraction was greatly reduced. The swelling power of partially gelatinized starch was higher than that of the native starch below 60°C, while it was lower than that of native starch above 60°C. There was an increase in gelatinization temperature and a decrease in gelatinization enthalpy in partially gelatinized starch compared to that of native starch. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.

- Description: The effect of addition of flaxseed gum on the rheological properties of mixed flaxseed gum-casein gels (flaxseed gum concentration: 0.1-0.5%, w/w and casein concentration: 15-23%, w/w) was studied using both small amplitude oscillatory and steady shear measurements. It was found that the storage (G′) and loss (G″) moduli increased with the increase in the flaxseed gum concentration. Both the experimentally determined G′ and G″ values were fitted well by Power Law model. The addition of flaxseed gum increased the Power Law constants (K′ and K″) at the same time the frequency exponents (n′ and n″) decreased. The G′, G″ of the mixed flaxseed gum-casein gels decreased with increase in temperature. The gelling temperature was found to increase linearly with the increase in flaxseed gum concentration. The apparent viscosities increased with increase in the flaxseed gum and casein concentrations, and were also fitted well by Power Law model. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
