Influence of Heating on Oil-in-Water Emulsions Prepared with Soybean Soluble Polysaccharide
2007
Nakamura, A. | Maeda, H. | Corredig, M.
The effect of heating on the physicochemical properties of emulsions prepared with soybean soluble polysaccharide (SSPS) was investigated. The emulsions were stable after heating at 90 °C for up to 30 min. Heating at different pH values or in the presence of CaCl2 (<10 mM) did not affect the stability; however, at higher concentrations of calcium ions, the emulsion particle size increased. Two fractions, a high molecular weight (HMF) and a low molecular weight (LMF) fraction, were separated from the crude SSPS preparation by gel fitration. Emulsions prepared with SSPS/HMF (MW = 310-420 kDa) showed little change in size with heating, while the protein impurities of the SSPS/LMF fraction formed aggregates by heating at pH 7. Analysis of the heat-induced aggregation of the two fractions of SSPS suggested that the changes in SSPS functionality with heating can be attributed to the protein impurities (LMF) present in the SSPS.
