Abstract: The effects of chain length and degree of unsaturation of fatty acids (FAs)

2

on structure and in vitro digestibility of starch-protein-FA complexes were

3

investigated in model systems. Studies with the Rapid Visco Analyser (RVA) showed

4

that the formation of ternary complex resulted in higher viscosities than those of

5

binary complex during the cooling and holding stages. The results of Differential

6

Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), Raman and X-ray diffraction (XRD) showed that the

7

structural differences for ternary complexes were much less than those for binary

8

complexes. Starch-protein-FA complexes presented lower in vitro enzymatic

9

digestibility compared with starch-FAs complexes. We conclude that shorter chain

10

and lower unsaturation FAs favor the formation of ternary complexes, but decrease

11

the thermal stability of these complexes. FAs had a smaller effect on the ordered

12

structures of ternary complexes than on those of binary complexes, and little effect on

13

enzymatic digestibility of both binary and ternary complexes.

INTRODUCTION

24

Many cereal-based foodstuffs are composed of starch, proteins and lipids. Interactions

25

among these macronutrients during processing influence significantly quality

26

characteristics of finished foods, such as flavor, texture, mouth-feel and digestibility.

27

Amylose can form helical inclusion complexes with various types of lipids, naturally

28

or during food processing.1-4 As has been shown in many studies, the formation of

29

these complexes reduces the solubility and swelling power of starch in water, alters

30

the rheological properties of starch pastes, increases gelatinization temperature,

31

reduces gel rigidity, retards retrogradation and reduces the susceptibility to enzymic

32

hydrolysis.5-7 Both chain length and degree of unsaturation of fatty acids have been

33

shown to affect the structure and functional properties of starch-fatty acid

34

complexes.8-14

35 36

Ternary interactions between starch, lipids and proteins have been demonstrated using

37

Rapid Visco Analyzer (RVA) and high performance size exclusion chromatography

38

(HPSEC) studies.15-18 The functional properties of the starch in the complexes were

39

shown to be altered.19 Studies with laser confocal micro-Raman (LCM-Raman)

40

spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray Diffraction

41

(XRD) showed that starch, β-lactoglobulin and fatty acids formed a more ordered

42

V-type crystalline structure compared with the respective binary starch-fatty acid

43

complexes.20 The digestibility of starch, as the most important glycemic carbohydrate

44

in foods, is of considerable interest nutritionally in relation to the increasing incidence 3

ACS Paragon Plus Environment

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry

45

of obesity and diet-related chronic diseases. However, the digestibility of starch in

46

processed foods is not well understood, especially the susceptibility of complexes

47

between starch, lipids and proteins to enzymic breakdown, and potential implications

48

for human nutrition. Starch digestibility in processed foods is affected by interactions

49

with other constituents,19 but does not seem to be correlated closely with the degree of

50

starch gelatinization.21 Hence, there is a need for a greater understanding of

51

interactions between starch, lipids and proteins, and of the properties of resulting

52

complexes that may form. In particular, there is little information on the effect of

53

chain length and degree of unsaturation of fatty acids on the formation of ternary

54

complexes involving starch, lipids and proteins.

55 56

Hence, the objectives of the present study were to use a model system to investigate

57

the effects of structural attributes of FAs on the formation, structure and in vitro

58

enzymatic digestibility of model starch-protein-fatty acids complexes, and to compare

59

the properties of these complexes with the corresponding starch-FA complexes. This

60

information is essential to developing an understanding of the interactions between

61

macronutrients during food processing and of the bioavailability of these

62

macronutrients for human nutrition.

Rapid Viscosity Analysis (RVA)

78

The pasting profiles of MS-FA and MS-βLG-FA mixtures were determined using a

79

Rapid Visco Analyzer (RVA-4) (Perten Instruments Australia, Macquarie Park, NSW,

80

Australia) according to the method described elsewhere.20 Maize starch (2.0 g, wet

81

weight), FAs (100 mg) and βLG (200 mg) were weighed accurately into a RVA

82

canister and deionised water was added to make a total weight of 28.0 g.

83

The pasting profiles of the mixtures were monitored according to the STD 1 protocol

84

supplied with the instrument. Briefly, starch slurries were held at 50 °C for 1 min

85

before heating at a rate of 12°C /min to 95 °C, holding at 95 °C for 3 min, and then

86

cooling at a rate of 12 °C /min to 50 °C and held at 50°C for 4 min. The speed of the

87

mixing paddle was 960 rpm for the first 10 s, then 160 rpm for the remainder of the

88

experiment. Pastes of MS were prepared by the same protocol and used as the 5

89

reference. The RVA pastes were frozen in liquid nitrogen immediately after the

90

conclusion of the protocol, freeze-dried, ground into powder using a mortar and pestle,

91

and passed through a 150 µm sieve. The resulting powders were stored in sealed

92

containers at 4 °C for further structural characterization and in vitro enzymatic

93

digestibility analysis.

94 95

Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC)

96

Thermal properties of MS-FA and MS-βLG-FA mixtures were examined using a

97

differential scanning calorimeter (200 F3, Netzsch, Germany) equipped with a

98

thermal data analysis station. The sample preparation was as described in our previous

99

study.20 Samples (3 mg) were weighed accurately into 40 µL aluminum pans, and

100

deionized water or the appropriate amount of βLG solution was added to give a

101

samples/water (or βLG solution) ratio of 1:3 (w/w) and to obtain a MS/βLG/FA ratio

102

of 20:2:1 (w/w/w) or a MS/FA ratio of 20:1 (w/w). The pans were sealed, equilibrated

103

overnight at room temperature, and heated from 20 to 120 °C at a rate of 10 °C/min.

104

After heating, the gelatinized samples were cooled to 20 °C at 5 °C/min, and the pans

105

were reheated without delay to 120 °C at a rate of 10 °C/min. An empty pan was used

106

as the reference. The thermal transition parameters (onset (To), peak (Tp), conclusion

107

(Tc) temperatures and enthalpy change (∆H)) for MS, MS-FA and MS-βLG-FA

108

mixtures were determined from the data recording software.

111

The short-range molecular order of MS-FA and MS-βLG-FA complexes obtained

112

from the RVA was determined using a Renishaw Invia Raman microscope system

113

(Renishaw, Gloucestershire, UK) equipped with a Leica microscope (Leica

114

Biosystems, Wetzlar, Germany); a 785 nm green diode laser source was used. The

115

spectra from 3200 to 100 cm-1 were collected from at least five different positions on

116

each sample with a resolution of approximately 7 cm-1. The full width at half

117

maximum (FWHM) of the band at 480 cm-1 was obtained using the WiRE 2.0

118

software to characterize the short-range molecular order of complex samples.22

119 120

Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) Spectroscopy

121

The FTIR spectra of complexes obtained from the RVA were obtained using a Tensor

122

27 FTIR spectrometer (Bruker, Germany) equipped with a KBr beam splitter and a

123

DLaTGS detector. The samples were ground with KBr powder at a ratio of 1:150

124

(w/w), and the fine powders were pressed into transparent pellets and examined by

125

the transmission method. The spectra were scanned in the range of 4000 to 400 cm−1

126

at room temperature, with an accumulation of 64 scans and at a resolution of 4 cm-1.23

127 128

X-ray Diffraction (XRD)

129

The crystallinity of complexes obtained from the RVA was determined using a

130

D/max-2500vk/pc X-ray diffractometer (Rigaku Corporation, Tokyo, Japan) with a

131

Cu-Kα source (λ = 0.154 nm) operating at 40 kV and 40 mA. The samples were

132

equilibrated over a saturated NaCl solution at room temperature for one week before 7

133

measurement. The moisture-equilibrated samples were packed tightly in round glass

134

cells and examined over the range of 5o to 30o (2θ) at a scanning rate of 2o/min and a

135

step size of 0.02°.

136 137

In Vitro Enzymatic Digestibility

138

The in vitro enzymatic digestibility of MS-FA and MS-βLG-FA complexes was

139

analyzed based on Englyst’s method24 and according to the procedure of Wang et al25

140

with minor modifications as follows. The mixture of hydrolytic enzymes consisted of

141

porcine pancreatic α-amylase (PPA) and amyloglucosidase (AMG). According to the

142

manufacturer’s instructions, PPA solution was prepared by suspending 1.22 g of PPA

143

(16 U/mg) in 11.9 mL deionized water at 37 oC with magnetic stirring for 10 min. The

144

mixture was centrifuged at 3000 g for 15 min and 0.1 mL of AMG was added to 8.0

145

mL of the supernatant. Samples of the complexes (100 mg, dry weight basis) were

146

dispersed in 25 mL sodium acetate buffer (0.2 M, pH 6) containing 6.67 mmol/L

147

CaCl2, and 5 mL of enzyme mixture containing 8228 U PPA and 204 U AMG was

148

added. The complex-enzyme mixtures were incubated at 37 °C with stirring at 260

149

rpm for 2 h. Aliquots (0.2 mL) of the hydrolysate were withdrawn at specific time

150

points (from 0 to 120 min), and mixed with 0.8 mL of absolute ethanol to stop

151

enzyme reactions. After centrifuging at 13000 rpm for 3 min, the supernatant was

152

used to determine the glucose content by the Megazyme GOPOD kit. The hydrolysis

153

percentages of starch samples were calculated from the amount of glucose produced

154

(multiplied by 0.9 to convert to the anhydro-glucosyl form) divided by the initial 8

amount of glucose equivalents in the starch.

156 157

Statistical Analysis

158

All results were measured at least in triplicate (three samples were used), and the

159

results are reported as the mean values and standard deviations. In the case of XRD,

160

only one measurement was performed. One way analysis of variance (ANOVA)
