Influence Of Chaperone-Like Activity Of Caseinomacropeptide On The Gelation Behaviour Of Whey Proteins At Ph 6.4 And 7.2, Sophie J. Gaspard, Prateek Sharma, Ciarán Fitzgerald, John T. Tobin, James A. O'Mahony, Alan L. Kelly, Andre Brodkorb Aug 2020

Influence Of Chaperone-Like Activity Of Caseinomacropeptide On The Gelation Behaviour Of Whey Proteins At Ph 6.4 And 7.2, Sophie J. Gaspard, Prateek Sharma, Ciarán Fitzgerald, John T. Tobin, James A. O'Mahony, Alan L. Kelly, Andre Brodkorb

Nutrition, Dietetics, and Food Sciences Faculty Publications

The effect of caseinomacropeptide (CMP) on the heat-induced denaturation and gelation of whey proteins (2.5–10%, w/v) at pH 6.4 and 7.2, at a whey protein:CMP ratio of 1:0.9 (w/w), was investigated using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), oscillatory rheology (90 °C for 20 min) and confocal microscopy. Greater frequency-dependence in the presence of CMP suggested that the repulsive interactions between CMP and the whey proteins affected the network generated by the non-heated whey protein samples. At pH 6.4 or 7.2, CMP increased the temperature of denaturation of β-lactoglobulin by up to 3 °C and increased the gelation temperature by up to …


Added Sugars: What You Need To Know, Carrie Durward, Keshele Stevens Jul 2020

Added Sugars: What You Need To Know, Carrie Durward, Keshele Stevens

All Current Publications

Added sugar has become a hot topic among health professionals and in the media. Based on the best available evidence, health professionals recommend that less than 10% of daily calories come from added sugar (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services [HHS] & U.S. Department of Agriculture [USDA], 2015c) in order to maintain a balanced diet with all the important nutrients. In this fact sheet, we will address why and how to limit added sugar in your diet, what it is, and where to find it.


Solubility Of Carbon Dioxide In Renneted Casein Matrices: Effect Of Ph, Salt, Temperature, Partial Pressure, And Moisture To Protein Ratio, Prabin Lamichhane, Prateek Sharma, Alan L. Kelly, Jens Risbo, Fergal P. Rattray, Jeremiah J. Sheehan Jul 2020

Solubility Of Carbon Dioxide In Renneted Casein Matrices: Effect Of Ph, Salt, Temperature, Partial Pressure, And Moisture To Protein Ratio, Prabin Lamichhane, Prateek Sharma, Alan L. Kelly, Jens Risbo, Fergal P. Rattray, Jeremiah J. Sheehan

Nutrition, Dietetics, and Food Sciences Faculty Publications

The solubility of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the moisture and protein components of cheese matrices and the influence of changing pH, salt and temperature levels remains unclear. In this study, model casein matrices were prepared, by renneting of micellar casein concentrate (MCC), with modulation of salt and pH levels by adding salt and glucono delta-lactone, respectively, to the MCC solutions prior to renneting. Different moisture-to-protein levels were achieved by freeze-drying, incubation of samples at different relative humidities, or by applying varying pressures during gel manufacture. The CO2 solubility of samples decreased linearly with both increasing temperature and salt-in-moisture content, whereas …


Application Of A Cascade Membrane Filtration Process To Standardise Serum Protein Depleted Cheese Milk For Cheddar Cheese Manufacture, Xiaofeng Xia, John B. Tobin, Prateek Sharma, Mark Fenelon, Paul L.H. Mcsweeney, Jeremiah J. Sheehan Jul 2020

Application Of A Cascade Membrane Filtration Process To Standardise Serum Protein Depleted Cheese Milk For Cheddar Cheese Manufacture, Xiaofeng Xia, John B. Tobin, Prateek Sharma, Mark Fenelon, Paul L.H. Mcsweeney, Jeremiah J. Sheehan

Nutrition, Dietetics, and Food Sciences Faculty Publications

A cascade membrane filtration process including microfiltration (MF), ultrafiltration (UF) and reverse osmosis (RO) was used to fractionate skim milk into different streams. Significant quantities of lactose and minerals were removed to permeate after MF at 0.14 μm. Cheese milk, of similar casein content to the raw milk, was standardised simultaneously for casein, lactose, ash and total calcium from the membrane streams without requiring CaCl2 and lactose addition. Serum protein depleted cheese milk of typical casein content had similar rennet coagulability, cheese composition, texture and yield to the control; milk of 1.5 × casein content had a faster coagulation rate …
