Structure and functional properties of whey protein conjugated with carboxymethyl cellulose through maillard reaction

Zhehui Jiang et al.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of reaction time on the preparation and functional properties of Whey Protein-Carboxymethyl Cellulose (WPCMC) conjugates. The preparation of WP-CMC conjugates was carried out using wet heating in the Maillard reaction. The response degree was determined by variations in pH value, browning degree, and grafting. The conjugates showed improved emulsification performance, solubility, DPPH scavenging capacity, and iron-reducing power. Analytical techniques confirmed changes in molecular weight, hydrophobic structure, and functional groups. The optimal treatment time for WP-CMC was found to be 140 min.

Novel gellan gum-based probiotic film with enhanced biological activity and probiotic viability: Application for fresh-cut apples and potatoes

Zhikun Yang et al.

Summary: A novel probiotic film made of gellan gum, cranberry extract, and Lactococcus lactis was successfully fabricated. The addition of Lactococcus lactis significantly enhanced the antibacterial activity of the film. Cranberry extract improved the antioxidant activity and survivability of Lactococcus lactis in the film. The combination of 2.0% Lactococcus lactis and 0.5% cranberry extract resulted in the best comprehensive properties of the film, which also showed optimal preservation effect on fresh-cut potatoes and apples. Therefore, the GN/2.0% LA/0.5% CE probiotic film is suitable for fruit and vegetable preservation.

Characterization and Identification of Probiotic Features in Lacticaseibacillus Paracasei Using a Comparative Genomic Analysis Approach

Alexis Torres-Miranda et al.

Summary: In this study, a comparative genomic analysis of 181 genomes of Lacticaseibacillus paracasei species was performed to reveal genomic differences at the subspecies level and to uncover adaptive and probiotic features, with a focus on inulin consumption. The study found that there was no clear distinction at the subspecies level for L. paracasei, and that genomic distance showed a good correlation with isolation origin. Additionally, L. paracasei strains exhibited a low frequency of undesirable characteristics and the inulin gene cluster showed slight variations. Overall, further work is needed for L. paracasei subspecies classification.
