Maillard Reaction Evaluation by Furosine Determination During Infant Cereal Processing
نویسندگان
چکیده
The furosine content of infant cereals has been used to evaluate the thermal damage caused to those foods during their manufacture (toasting, amylolysis and drying steps). The mean furosine contents of raw and toasted flours were 13·7 and 13·8 mg/100 g of protein, respectively. The furosine content increased to 47·3 mg/100 g of protein after hydrolysis using alpha-amylase. The amylolysis process raised the reducing sugar content from 0·5% for raw samples to 12·7%. The furosine content of infant cereals rose to average levels of 500 mg/100 g of protein after roller-drying. The infant cereals with the highest levels of reducing sugars, with or without soy flour, exhibited the highest furosine contents. Furosine is a useful indicator to evaluate the progress of the Maillard reaction during the amylolysis and roller-drying stages of infant cereals manufacture. 1999 Academic Press

An experiment was conducted to determine protein quality in processed protein sources using the content of AA, -methylisourea (OMIU)-reactive Lys, Maillard reaction products (MRP), and cross-link products; the standardized ileal digestibility (SID) of CP and AA; and growth performance in growing pigs as criteria. Differences in protein quality were created by secondary toasting (at 95°C for 30 ...
متن کاملNew Trends for the Evaluation of Heat Treatments of Milk
Milk is generally very rich in nutrients and this may lead it to be an ideal growth environment for many microorganisms, including pathogens, so effective measurements aiming to ensure total microbiological safety of milk and minimize the risk to human health are needed. Milk heat treatments are the most common practices carried out to inhibit the microbial growth; therefore it is necessary to ...
متن کاملQualitative and quantitative analysis of furosine in fresh and processed ginsengs
Background Furosine (ɛ-N-2-furoylmethyl-L-lysine, FML) is an amino acid derivative, which is considered to be an important indicator of the extent of damage (deteriorating the quality of amino acid and proteins due to a blockage of lysine and a decrease in the digestibility of proteins) during the early stages of the Maillard reaction. In addition, FML has been proven to be harmful because it i...
متن کاملImpact of high-intensity ultrasound on the formation of lactulose and Maillard reaction glycoconjugates.
The impact of high-intensity ultrasound (US) on the formation of lactulose during lactose isomerization and on the obtention of lysine-glucose glycoconjugates during Maillard reaction (MR) has been studied, respectively, in basic and neutral media. As compared to equivalent conventional heat treatments, a higher formation of furosine, as indicator of initial steps of MR, was observed together w...
