AB  - This paper reviews the potential applications of soybean hulls and their
conversion into value-added products. In recent years, importance has been given to
solving the problems of negative effects of fossil fuels, general pollution and the
growing demand for environmentally friendly and sustainable alternatives. The
increased worldwide demand for animal feed and plant protein directly affects the
increase in soybean production and the generation of large amounts of by-products. By
valorizing by-products, it is possible to reduce the impact of waste on the environment,
solve the problem of malnutrition and close the circular economy loop. The main uses of
soybean hulls are in the production of biofuels, application in animal feed, production of
industrially important enzymes, synthesis of biomaterials and functional food
ingredients.

AB  - RuBisCO (ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase) is a non-allergenic, easily digestible protein found in the leaves of C3 plants, accounting for up to 50% of the total. It is similar to the FAO's ideal protein and is offered as a valuable alternative for meeting nutritional requirements. Plant-based proteins provide amino acids for human cells development and act as precursors of bioactive peptides. Protein sources and proteolytic enzymes are crucial for producing bioactive peptides effectively.
This research aimed to optimize the hydrolysis of pumpkin leaf-isolated protein in terms of time and type of process (one or two-step) using endo- and exo-peptidases. Efficiency was assessed using SDS-PAGE electrophoresis, quantitative hydrolysis analysis, and peptides' capacity to chelate Fe2+ ions and scavenge ABTS•+ radical cations. The peptide molecular weight was determined by implementing the size-exclusion UFLC method.
The highest degree of hydrolysis, which is correlated with higher antioxidant activity, was shown by Alcalase and Everlase (19.5%), and Neutrase (21.5%) with a tendency to favor Neutrase due to more favorable process conditions and a more sensory-acceptable product. Hydrolysis with Neutrase-Flavourzyme during 225 min yielded hydrolyzates with a 43.5% degree of hydrolysis, and antioxidant activities of 0.74 μmol TEAA/mg (i.e. 48%) and 0.30 μmol EEAA/mg (i.e. 44%). Five peptide fractions were identified as follows: F1 (> 27 kDa), F2 (20-27 kDa), F3 (10-20 kDa), F4 (3-10 kDa), and F5 (< 3 kDa). By establishing a correlation with antioxidant activity, it has been proven that a large proportion of peptide fractions F3, F4, and F5 were accountable for Neutrase-Flavourzyme hydrolyzate's good antioxidant activity. Examined enzymatic approches contributed to generate the antioxidant peptides from pumpkin-leaf proteins with diverse peptide profiles.

AB  - Utilization of agro-industrial byproducts represents a way to broaden the palette of
products derived from the less attractive and usually cheaper sources. The underutilized agroindustrial
byproducts have attracted attention in recent years due to their effect on the
environment. Wheat bran (WB) represents a byproduct of wheat industry and is a good
source of fiber. Valorization of industry byproducts leads to reduction in production cost of
enzymes due to high expenditure of expensive substrates required for microbial growth
during the production process. Hydrolytic enzyme xylanase which transforms xylan into
xylose is possible to produce using various microbial strains.
Production of xylanase was investigated via submerged fermentation by Penicillium
chrysogenum using a defined fermentation broth supplemented with adequate amount of WB
(1 and 2.5% (w/v)). Submerged fermentation was carried out in a shaking incubator (100 rpm,
30 °C, n=2) over the course of 10 days. Crude enzyme samples were investigated each day
for xylanase enzyme activity via 3,5-dinitrosalicylic acid (DNS) assay for reducing sugars
using 1% (w/v) beechwood xylan solution in 50 mM Sodium Citrate buffer, pH 5.0 at 37 °C.
Maximum activity was achieved on the 4th (1% (w/v) WB) and 5th (2.5% (w/v) WB) day of
fermentation, 3.93±0.31 IU/ml and 4.48±0.067 IU/ml, respectively. pH (4–10) and
temperature (25–60 °C) optima were determined via DNS method, and the optimal conditions
were determined to be pH 5.0–5.5 and 37 °C. The influence of the addition of different metal
ions and reagents on the enzyme activity was determined. The most beneficial effect was
noted for the addition of MnCl2 and dithiothreitol. The increase of enzyme activities recorded
was 22–29% for MnCl2 and 53–59% for dithiothreitol. It was concluded that P. chrysogenum
can be further exploited in an enzyme production optimization process to increase xylanase
activity.

AB  - Processing conditions for the fabrication of soy protein concentrates (SPCs) have a
profound impact on the tightly packed, globular structure of soy proteins, which is reflected
in the weakening of structural and functional properties, limiting their use in food systems.
Many scholars have investigated the modification of soy protein, but this is the first time that
high-intensity ultrasound technology has been used to address its limitations through
improvement of the physicochemical properties of SPC. Therefore, the aim of this study was
to develop an ultrasound-based method capable of producing SPC with improved functional
properties making it a multifunctional ingredient for food systems intended for human
consumption. The effects of high-intensity ultrasonication (20 kHz; 30% for 0.5; 2; 5 or 10
min) on the solubility, emulsifying properties, hydrophobicity, oil and water binding
capacities and color of commercially available SPC were investigated.
Ultrasonic cavitation induced the restructuring of SPC, which was confirmed by
significant changes in functional and structural properties. After ultrasonic treatment (30%
amplitude for 5 min), the most significant shifts in solubility were observed. The emulsion
fabricated with this restructured SPC was firm, stable, without perceptible phase separation,
with emulsifying activity and emulsion stability of 1024.4 ± 10.6 m2/g and 836.3 ± 12.2 h,
correspondingly. Ultrasonic treatment of 30% amplitude for 2 min enabled SPC with best oil
(3.26 ± 0.4 goil/gprotein) and water binding capacity (5.04 ± 0.9 gwater/gprotein). Furthermore, the
results additionally revealed that with the increase in sonication time the surface
hydrophobicity of SPC increased first and then decreased. The value of a* and b* decreased
significantly with the ultrasonic treatment time increment, while lengthened ultrasonic
cavitation increased the L* value. In conclusion, the functional and structural improvement of
SPC endorsed the adequacy of ultrasonic cavitation in SPC modification.

abstract = "Processing conditions for the fabrication of soy protein concentrates (SPCs) have a
profound impact on the tightly packed, globular structure of soy proteins, which is reflected
in the weakening of structural and functional properties, limiting their use in food systems.
Many scholars have investigated the modification of soy protein, but this is the first time that
high-intensity ultrasound technology has been used to address its limitations through
improvement of the physicochemical properties of SPC. Therefore, the aim of this study was
to develop an ultrasound-based method capable of producing SPC with improved functional
properties making it a multifunctional ingredient for food systems intended for human
consumption. The effects of high-intensity ultrasonication (20 kHz; 30% for 0.5; 2; 5 or 10
min) on the solubility, emulsifying properties, hydrophobicity, oil and water binding
capacities and color of commercially available SPC were investigated.
Ultrasonic cavitation induced the restructuring of SPC, which was confirmed by
significant changes in functional and structural properties. After ultrasonic treatment (30%
amplitude for 5 min), the most significant shifts in solubility were observed. The emulsion
fabricated with this restructured SPC was firm, stable, without perceptible phase separation,
with emulsifying activity and emulsion stability of 1024.4 ± 10.6 m2/g and 836.3 ± 12.2 h,
correspondingly. Ultrasonic treatment of 30% amplitude for 2 min enabled SPC with best oil

AB  - Research background. The development of a novel process for the production of xy-looligosaccharides (XOS) based on the 4R concept is made possible by the integration of numerous techniques, especially enzymatic modification together with the physical pre-treatment of renewable materials. This study aims to integrate the use of agricultural wastes for the production of xylanase by a new strain of Penicillium sp. and value-added products, XOS. Experimental approach. For the production of xylanase, a solid-state fermentation was performed using wheat bran as substrate. To obtain the most active crude extract of xy-lanase, the time frame of cultivation was first adjusted. Then, the downstream process for xylanase purification was developed by combining different membrane separation units with size exclusion chromatography. Further characterisation included determination of the optimal pH and temperature, determination of the molecular mass of the purified xy-lanase and analysis of kinetic parameters. Subsequently, the hydrolytic ability of the par-tially purified xylanase in the hydrolysis of alkali-extracted hemicellulose from soybean hulls was investigated. Results and conclusions. Our results show that Penicillium rubens produced extracellular xylanase at a yield of 21 U/g during solid-state fermentation. Using two ultrafiltration membranes of 10 and 3 kDa in combination with size exclusion chromatography, a yield of 49 % and 13-fold purification of xylanase was achieved. The purified xylanase (35 kDa) cleaved linear bonds β-(1→4) in beechwood xylan at a maximum rate of 0.64 μmol/ (min·mg) and a Michaelis constant of 44 mg/mL. At pH=6 and 45 °C, the purified xylanase showed its maximum activity. The xylanase produced showed a high ability to hydrolyse the hemicellulose fraction isolated from soybean hulls, as confirmed by thin-layer chro-matography. In the hydrothermally pretreated hemicellulose hydrolysate, the content of XOS with different degrees of polymerisation was detected, while in the non-pretreated hemicellulose hydrolysate, the content of xylotriose and glucose was confirmed. Novelty and scientific contribution. Future research focusing on the creation of new en-zymatic pathways for use in processes to convert renewable materials into value-added products can draw on our findings.

AB  - The possibility to utilize Alcalase to hydrolyze soft wheat flour (SWF) containing high concentration of solids (i.e. starch) and the effect of its presence was investigated. At a degree of hydrolysis of 23.49% +/- 0.64%, sample prepared as 15% (w/w) showed greatest reduction in gliadin content, resulting in 9.42 +/- 1.5 ppm of gluten, tested by competitive ELISA test. SDS-PAGE electrophoresis confirmed the differences in gliadin content for all of the prepared wheat flour hydrolysates (WFHs). All WFHs had improved radical-scavenging (>60%), metal-ion chelating (>80%) and technofunctional properties after enzymatic hydrolysis compared to SWF. FTIR spectra confirmed structural changes in the Amide I (1,700-1,600 cm(-1)) region. Changes in total zeta-potential and average particle size were observed. The hydrolysis reaction was facilitated by the increase of the solids content since it interferes with the aggregation of gluten proteins, therefore less available water was proven beneficial for the enzymatic reaction. Novelty impact statement: Gluten originating from soft wheat flour can be efficiently hydrolyzed by endo-protease Alcalase (DH similar to 24%), without introducing steps that include the extraction and isolation of gluten. By preparing the wheat flour hydrolysates, the significant reduction of adverse allergenicity of wheat flour has been achieved; gluten content was less than 10 ppm. Improvement of techno-functional properties, zeta-potential and particle size distribution, as well as antioxidant potential of soft wheat flour was observed upon enzymatic hydrolysis for all samples.

AB  - The application of hydrolytic enzymes, such as xylanases, have proven to be very valuable in the industry. Their application ranges from paper industry, animal feed, food additives, silage and baking industry, and many others. These versatile enzymes were found to be produced by many microbial species. The aim of this research was to establish whether the fungi Thermomyces lanuginosus has xylanase production potential. 

The strain was screened for xylanase activity on a selective plate containing beech wood xylan. Production of xylanase enzyme was done by submerged fermentation (SMF) in wheat bran broth medium (WBBM) over a period of 10 days at 50 0C, by using wheat bran as a substrate. Xylanase activity of the produced enzyme was measured according to 3,5-dinitrosalicylic acid (DNS) assay for reducing sugars for each day of fermentation. Total protein content was determined by Bradford method. Cellulase, mannanase, amylase and pectinase enzyme activities were determined by DNS assay, while protease activity was measured using azo-casein as substrate. The effect of substrate concentration on the enzyme activity was investigated by DNS method.

The maximum activity of 17.74 ± 0.48 IU/mL was reached on day 7 of fermentation. pH and temperature optimum were analyzed and it was determined that the optimum pH for the enzyme activity was 6, showing the high activity also in the pH range 5 - 7.5. Temperature optimum was 60 0C. The research has shown that the enzyme was stable even after 5 hours of incubation at optimal conditions, reaching maximum activity after 2 hours. In the presence of metal ion Mn2+ the activity of enzyme was increased. All other tested enzymes were found to be present in the crude enzyme extract. 

The tested strain T. lanuginosus is a good producer of xylanases, and may be used for hydrolysis of lignocellulosic waste materials. Due to its temperature stability and wide pH range of activity, it shows potential for application in many different industries.

AB  - Wheat bran is a by-product of wheat flour production used as a nutritious and economic feed ingredient, but since it possesses several anti-nutritional factors that entrap nutrients and interfere with digestion and absorption, its application is limited. The utilization of organic-rich wastes for the production of value-added products and nutritional improvement of food is a means to an end - sustainability. Here we propose addressing these challenges via fermentation by Bacillus sp. TMF-2, a strain that produces several enzymes and simultaneously, wheat bran of higher nutritional quality. Following solid-state fermentation, the soluble phenolic content of wheat bran nearly triplicated compared to the raw bran. The total proportion of polyphenols along with the antioxidant capacity and free radical scavenging rate were significantly improved, particularly the ability to reduce Fe3+ increased by 10-fold. Additionally, the activity of hydrolytic enzymes: amylase, cellulase, pectinase, mannanase, protease, and phytase increased during fermentation, whereas the level of anti-nutrient, phytic acid decreased. Among all produced enzymes, there is a special emphasis on the protease prone to degrade gluten thus resulting in gluten-free wheat bran. The results of this research could contribute to a beneficial procedure for the natural modification of wheat bran, which further augments the health benefits and utilization of wheat bran.

AB  - In modern times wheat gluten has drawn attention to many research groups. Wheat gluten represents one of the most widely used proteins in the food industry. It is a byproduct of the starch industry and has a higher percentage of protein content compared to other plant-based protein sources. In order to help reduce the allergenicity of wheat gluten, bacterial enzymes have been proven to have beneficial results in wheat gluten treatment. In search for an extracellular peptidase producing strain we have tested Bacillus subtilis TMF-1 isolate, which has previously been proven to have several enzyme activities. B. subtilis TMF-1 isolate has a food grade status, making it safe for application in the food industry. Thus, the aim of this research was to examine the possibility of utilizing mentioned strain in terms of gluten-degrading enzyme production. Tested strain was first streaked onto several agar plates in order to detect extracellular peptidase activity. Bacterial isolate has then been sequentially transferred to the same growth medium several times. Conditions varied for the submerged fermentation in 25 mL flasks were pH value of fermentation broth, concentration of gluten powder (0-10 g/L) in fermentation broth and concentration of peptone (0-1 g/L). Shaking flasks containing the fermentation broth with the bacterial strain were kept for 48 h at 370C. The results obtained show that the isolate has the possibility of thriving in low acidic to neutral pH values of the fermentation broth. Varied gluten concentrations showed that even 1 g/L of gluten powder was sufficient for the bacterial strain to manifest extracellular proteolytic enzyme activity. Peptone concentrations were also varied, but even the minimal presence of peptone has proven beneficial for bacterial growth and proteolytic activity. This research show that the B. subtilis TMF-1 isolate has proteolytic activity specific for wheat gluten as substrate and that it may be used in further research in order to utilize its enzymatic production abilities for lowering wheat gluten allergenicity.

AB  - Xylanases represent a diverse group of enzymes that degrade beta-1,4-xylan into xylose, thereby breaking down hemicellulose, one of the major components of plant cell walls. There are several industries that commercially use xylanase, such as pulp and paper making industry for chlorine-free bleaching of wood pulp and waste paper recycling, in food industry as food additives to poultry, in baking industry for improving dough handling and the quality of baked products. Xylanases are often used for the extraction of coffee, plant oils and in the first stage of starch extraction. Along with pectinase and cellulase, xylanases are also often used for clarification of fruit juices. Different microbial sources of xylanolytic enzymes have been reported such as bacteria, fungi, yeast and marine algae. The aim of this research was to find new fungi strains with xylanase production potential. Production of xylanase enzyme was done by submerged fermentation (SmF) with several different fungi species (Penicillium chrysogenum, Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus oryzae, Aspergillus flavus, Mucor sp., Rhizopus sp.) by using beechwood xylan as a substrate. The strains were previously screened for xylanase activity on selective xylan agar medium (XAM) plates over a period of 10 days. Among all the tested fungi, two exhibited significant results (Penicillium chrysogenum, Aspergillus flavus) for growth on XAM and were subjected to submerged fermentation in xylan broth medium for further analysis. Enzyme activities (IU/ml) monitored for both fungi showed a trend in value increase over the course of the first days of fermentation, where enzyme from Penicillium chrysogenum reached its maximum activity od 0.291 ± 0.018 IU/ml on day 4 of the fermentation. In comparison to Penicillium chrysogenum, enzyme activity measured for Aspergillus flavus was at least two-fold greater during all 12 days of fermentation, reaching its maximum of 0.655 ± 0.046 IU/ml on day 8 of the fermentation. pH and temperature optimum were analyzed for both of the selected fungi and the obtained optimal values were pH 5 and 37°C.

AB  - Enzymatic hydrolysis of wheat gluten at high solids concentrations is beneficial from both an ecological and an economic viewpoint, since wheat gluten can be hydrolyzed by either using the raw fraction of wheat gluten or directly from the soft wheat flour (SWF). Thus, in this study, the possibility to hydrolyze SWF with high concentration of solids, which implies in this case high starch content and the effect of its presence was investigated. SWF was hydrolyzed with Alcalase (pH 8.0, 60 °C) at different SWF concentrations while the enzyme to substrate (E/S) ratio was kept constant at 5%. By increasing the starch content in the sample and therefore reducing the amount of available water, greater degrees of hydrolysis (DH) were achieved. SWF prepared at 15% (w/w) showed greater DH compared to 5% (w/w) and 10% (w/w) mixtures. At a DH of 23.49%, sample prepared as 15% (w/w) showed greatest reduction in gliadin content, resulting in 9.42 ± 1.5 ppm of gluten, tested by competitive ELISA test. SDS-PAGE electrophoresis confirmed the differences in gliadin content for all of the prepared wheat flour hydrolysates (WFH). Enzymatic hydrolysis has removed glutenin subunits (GS), x-HMW-GS (83-88 kDa) and y-HMW-GS (67-74 kDa) and ω5-gliadins (49-55 kDa). All WFHs had significantly improved antioxidant (> 60%) and metal-ion chelating (> 80%) properties compared to SWF. Also, techno-functional properties were improved after enzymatic hydrolysis. Emulsifying activity and emulsion stability were significantly improved after hydrolysis and therefore more stable emulsion systems were formed. Foaming properties were also improved after hydrolysis. The changes in the WFHs macromolecular conformations and changes induced by the Alcalase, were inspected using Fourier transformation infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and surface measurements. FTIR spectra confirmed structural changes in the Amide I (1,700-1,600 cm-1) region. The changes in total zeta-potential and average particle size were in accordance with above-mentioned functional behaviors. The increase in the DH, with prolonged time of enzyme attack, affected the increase in the surface charge of the WFH molecules, suggesting that the stability and electrokinetic potential were maintained stable. The hydrolysis reaction was facilitated by the increase of the solids content since it interferes with the aggregation of gluten proteins, therefore less available water was proven beneficial for the enzymatic reaction. Regarding process feasibility on an industrial level, a more concentrated system may be used in order to produce WFHs with reduced allergenic and improved functional properties.

AB  - Constant world population growth imposes the need for the production of more food, and as a consequence, has an increase in the organic-rich wastes. These agro-industrial wastes represent problem from the environmental viewpoint, and their utilization as the raw materials for the production of value-added products has become one of the main topics of the biorefinery. The aim of this research was to use soybean meal, co-product of dietary oil production, as a model agro-industrial by-product for optimization of phenolic compounds extraction. In this paper, ethanol influenced microwave-assisted extraction is chosen since it is recognized as eco-friendly and food-safe.
Optimization of the extraction included finding the optimal liquid/solid ratio, extraction duration, and microwave power. The same method was applied for the extraction of phenolics from apple pomace, apple pomace mixed with soybean meal, ultrasound-treated soybean meal, and wheat bran. Antioxidative potential of all extracts was evaluated using a fixed reaction time 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) method as well as a steady-state measurement DPPH method. 2,2’-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) i.e., ABTS and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) methods were applied as well.
Under optimized conditions (liquid/solid ratio of 15 mL/g for 70 s at a microwave power of 300 W) 3.87 mg gallic acid equivalent (GAE)/g was extracted from soybean meal, which represented a substantial increase compared to 2.46 mg GAE/g obtained before optimization.
Results showed that extracts had different behavior towards different radicals depending on the type of the extracted phenolics. Apple pomace extract was the most potent towards DPPH• radical, while the most effective extract towards ABTS•+ radical was obtained from apple pomace and soybean meal mixture. The soybean meal extract showed the highest reducing power assessed via the FRAP method. Results obtained in this study show that optimization of the extraction enabled a substantial increase in the extracted phenolics and that the method could be successfully applied with other agro-industrial by-products providing extracts with antioxidative potential.

AB  - In modern times wheat gluten has drawn attention to many research groups.
Wheat gluten represents one of the most widely used proteins in the food
industry. It is a byproduct of the starch industry and has a higher percentage
of protein content compared to other plant-based protein sources. In order to
help reduce the allergenicity of wheat gluten, bacterial enzymes have been
proven to have beneficial results in wheat gluten treatment. In search for
an extracellular peptidase producing strain we have tested Bacillus subtilis
TMF-1 isolate, which has previously been proven to have several enzyme
activities. B. subtilis TMF-1 isolate has a food grade status, making it safe
for application in the food industry. Thus, the aim of this research was to
examine the possibility of utilizing mentioned strain in terms of glutendegrading
enzyme production.
Tested strain was first streaked onto several agar plates in order to detect
extracellular peptidase activity. Bacterial isolate has then been sequentially
transferred to the same growth medium several times. Conditions varied for
the submerged fermentation in 25 mL flasks were pH value of fermentation
broth, concentration of gluten powder (0 - 10 g/L) in fermentation broth
and concentration of peptone (0 - 1 g/L). Shaking flasks containing the
fermentation broth with the bacterial strain were kept for 48 h at 37 0C.
The results obtained show that the isolate has the possibility of thriving
in low acidic to neutral pH values of the fermentation broth. Varied gluten concentrations showed that even 1 g/L of gluten powder was sufficient for the
bacterial strain to manifest extracellular proteolytic enzyme activity. Peptone
concentrations were also varied, but even the minimal presence of peptone
has proven beneficial for bacterial growth and proteolytic activity.
This research show that the B. subtilis TMF-1 isolate has proteolytic activity
specific for wheat gluten as substrate and that it may be used in further
research in order to utilize its enzymatic production abilities for lowering
wheat gluten allergenicity.

AB  - In recent years, there has been an unprecedented de-mand by both consumers and industry, for inexpensive plant-derived protein hydrolysates as potential dietary sources of antioxidants. This is a particular refers to the protein from agricultural crop, such as soybean flour and/or flakes, especially from the soy protein concentrate (SPC). However, insolubility of SPC in water limits its more extensive use as food-protein ingredient, but it can be overcome by applying various enzymatic and non-enzymatic treatments. In order to expand the application of SPC, the influence of the one-step enzyme modification by using the commercial food-grade en-doprotease from Bacillus licheniformis on the antiox-idant and functional properties has been considered. For this purpose, SPC under the various dry matter contents (DM) were pre-incubated at the optimal temperature and hydrolyzed in a mechanically stirred batch reactor. The bioactivity was evaluated using rad-ical-scavenging and metal-chelating assays. The ABTS (2,2’-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sul-phonic acid)) radical-scavenging ability reached higher values at DM 8% and smaller hydrolysis degree (DH) 12.85%, then a decreasing for higher DH and the minimum reducing power was observed after hydrolysis of SPC with DM 2% and DH~18% (64.2%). It appeared that the all prepared hydrolysates had the high yields of bioactive peptides which had the ability to strong-ly chelating prooxidant ferrous metal ions ( gt  95%). The techno-functionalities of SPC hydrolysate (DM 8%) with relatively higher antioxidant activities were remarkably higher compared to the untreated SPC. Namely, this hydrolysate had excellent solubility over a pH range of 2-12 which was improved compared to untreated SPC-8%. The oil holding capacity was also enhanced, while enzyme treatment was damaging to both of emulsifying properties, activity and stability, and water holding capacity. The results obviously show that enzyme treated SPCs were superior to the untreated SPC in the analyzed bioactivity and techno-functionality and can be concluded that obtained SPC hydrolysates may be used as new value-added functional ingredients.

AB  - In this study, development of folic acid-loaded liposomes using a basic amino acid, histidine as a solubilizing agent for folic acid was presented, which tackled the poor solubility of this vitamin. The effect of the liposomal membrane modifiers, cholesterol and SPAN 20 on the characteristics of the final formulations was examined. Liposomes prepared from a commercially available purified soybean lecithin (Phospholipon 90G) by proliposome method were between 503 and 877 nm in average diameter, where cholesterol induced enlargement and SPAN.20 reduction of vesicles. High encapsulation efficiency of 84% and drug loading of 0.123 mg g(-1) were achieved, irrespective to the composition. According to AFM images, folic acid-loaded liposomes of a fraction with a nano size were flattened compared to globular empty liposomes. FTIR analysis revealed possible interactions between phospholipids and histidine, while DSC study suggested interactions between folic acid and lipids during heating. Release study done by a Franz diffusion cell showed prolonged release of folic acid from liposomes and the release rate was determined by folic acid solubility.

AB  - This work aims to characterize a novel system for thyme essential oil delivery based on the combination of natural emulsifiers (soy protein and soy lecithin) and alginate, produced using the extrusion technique. The formulations are optimized concerning alginate and soy protein concentrations (both 1 to 1.5 wt.%), and consequently lecithin amount, in order to achieve spherical beads in the range 2.0 to 2.3 mm and 1.2 to 1.4 mm, wet and dry, respectively. Fourier-transform infrared analysis was performed, proving that there are interactions between all components. Lecithin-soy protein synergistic combination improved entrapment efficiency of total polyphenols (for nearly 12%) and decreased thymol release in a simulated gastric solution for nearly 35%, in comparison with beads without lecithin. The addition of lecithin enhances the thermal properties of the polysaccharide-protein systems at 50 degrees C after 3 hr of heating. The mechanical stability of the biopolymer carriers is improved with lecithin addition and the elastic modulus varied from 80.06 to 123.7 kPa, depending on the formulation. Alginate/soy protein/lecithin are effective carriers for the encapsulation, protection, and controlled release of thyme essential oil. Practical Application There is unfortunately growing human resistance to antibiotics. This work offers a novel system for effective protection and controlled release of thyme essential oil in the small intestine. The mechanical and thermal properties of the carrier were estimated as they indicate how the beads will be able to resist stress during their incorporation into food (i.e. cookies-mixing, baking). The proposed approach offers ''green advantage'' as arises from all-natural materials.

AB  - In recent years, there has been an unprecedented demand by both consumers and industry, for inexpensive plant-derived protein hydrolysates as potential dietary sources of antioxidants. This is a particular refers to the protein from agricultural crop, such as soybean flour and/or flakes, especially from the soy protein concentrate (SPC). However, insolubility of SPC in water limits its more extensive use as food-protein ingredient, but it can be overcome by applying various enzymatic and non-enzymatic treatments. In order to expand the application of SPC, the influence of the one-step enzyme modification by using the commercial food-grade endoprotease from Bacillus licheniformis on the antioxidant and functional properties has been considered. For this purpose, SPC under the various dry matter contents (DM) were pre-incubated at the optimal temperature and hydrolyzed in a mechanically stirred batch reactor. The bioactivity was evaluated using radical-scavenging and metal-chelating assays. The ABTS (2,2’-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid)) radicalscavenging ability reached higher values at DM 8% and smaller hydrolysis degree (DH) 12.85%, then a decreasing for higher DH and the minimum reducing power was observed after hydrolysis of SPC with DM 2% and DH~18% (64.2%). It appeared that the all prepared hydrolysates had the high yields of bioactive peptides which had the ability to strongly chelating prooxidant ferrous metal ions (> 95%). The techno-functionalities of SPC hydrolysate (DM 8%) with relatively higher antioxidant activities were remarkably higher compared to the untreated SPC. Namely, this hydrolysate had excellent solubility over a pH range of 2-12 which was improved compared to untreated SPC-8%. The oil holding capacity was also enhanced, while enzyme treatment was damaging to both of emulsifying properties, activity and stability, and water holding capacity. The results obviously show that enzyme treated SPCs were superior to the untreated SPC in the analyzed bioactivity and techno-functionality and can be concluded that obtained SPC hydrolysates may be used as new valueadded functional ingredients.

AB  - Wheat gluten represents the major protein fraction present in wheat flour and as protein-rich
material posses cohesive and viscoelastic properties which permit the retention of gas bubbles in the dough. It could be obtained as a by-product during the separation of starch from wheat flour and as such may be utilized like a functional protein additive in various non-bakery foodstuffs due to its desirable structure-enhancing properties. However, wheat gluten is hardly soluble in water, which limits their expanding utilization. In the regard, the aim of this research was to investigate the correlation between process parameters of wheat gluten hydrolysis and emulsification activity and stability of the prepared hydrolysates. The hydrolysates showing the greatest enhancement of the emulsifying properties which are closed correlated with solubility improvement was further separated by sequential ultrafiltration to obtain molecular weight distribution profile and peptide fraction with higher metal-ion chelating ability. The hydrolysis was performed by using commercial endopeptidase from Bacillus licheniformis and process was followed by monitoring the degree of hydrolysis, emulsifying properties and metal-ion chelating activity. The effects of some relevant process parameters such as gluten concentration (1-9% w/v), temperature (40-60 °C), pH (7-9), enzyme/substrate ratio (0.25-0.75 AU g-¹ of protein) and their interactions were investigated by the means of the four-factor Box-Behnken experimental design with 29 experimental points (5 central points). The obtained results showed that the second-order models developed for emulsification activity and stability of gluten hydrolysates were significant (p<0.05) with a high value of the coefficients of determination (0.965-0.995). The statistical analysis showed that each variable had a significant effect on the emulsifying properties of the tested system. In terms of
emulsifying properties results showed that gluten concentration and temperature have had a positive effect on the increase of emulsification activity, while the enhancement of emulsification stability was achieved with the highest gluten concentration and pH 9. It appeared that the hydrolysate with great emulsifying properties had the highest percentage of peptides with medium molecular weight (3-10 kDa) which had the ability to strongly chelating prooxidant metal ions such as Fe2+ at level 99.3%. Results are substantial because they give useful information for the design an efficient process of gluten hydrolysis for production in high peptide yields with improved emulsifying properties. Also, may be suggesting that there are peptides with considerable size presenting a remarkable metal-ion chelating ability.

AB  - Solid-state fermentation (SSF) is a fermentation process where different agro-industrial
residues have been used as substrates to maximize their utilizations and to address the waste
disposal issues. Bacillus sp. strain has been studied for its ability to produce different enzymes
by SSF of agro-industrial residues. Soybean meal (SBM) is a co-product after solvent
extraction process in dietary oil production and high quality source of protein.
Herein, SBM was assessed for the production of hydrolytic enzymes through SSF with
Bacillus sp. strain for 8 days at 30 °C. Highest obtained yields of producing proteases,
cellulases, α-amylases and pectinases were 56.4, 0.89, 0.95 and 1.07 U g-1, respectively. The
enzymes produced were very different in biochemical characteristics, including activities at
specific temperatures and a wide range of pH values. The highest activity proteases,
cellulases, α-amylases exhibited at higher temperatures, 50 °C suggesting the high potential of
these enzymes for industrial application involving elevated conditions. Fermented soybean
meal (FSBM) was examined in terms of total phenol content (TPC), scavenging DPPH and
ABTS radical abilities. Scavenging DPPH and ABTS abilities of FSBM were all stronger than
that of SBM. The radical scavenging ability increased by fermentation in accordance with the
increase in TPC content. TPC increase from 1.12 to 3.12 mgGAE/g soybean meal after three days
of fermentation was observed. The high hydrolytic enzyme activity and stability established
plus the low cost of the substrate make this solid-state process a promising tool for
biotechnological industry.
