The production of xylooligosaccharides (XOS) from Jiuzao was studied using a two-stage process based on autohydrolysis pretreatment followed by enzymatic hydrolysis. Jiuzao was autohydrolyzed under conditions where temperature, time, particle size, and solid-liquid ratio were varied experimentally. Optimal XOS production was obtained from Jiuzao with a >20 mesh particle size treated at 181.5 °C for 20 min with a 1:13.6 solid-liquid ratio. Subsequently, optimal enzymatic hydrolysis conditions for xylanase XynAR were identified as 60 °C, pH 5, and xylanase XynAR loading of 15 U/mL. Using these conditions, a yield of 34.2% XOS was obtained from Jiuzao within 2 h. The process developed in the present study could enable effective and ecofriendly industrial production of XOS from Jiuzao.

Background: Understanding starch behavior under various processing conditions is important for the development of novel food products with tailored nutritional profiles. This study investigated changes to the structure and properties of native corn starch (NCS) and biomimetic starch-entrapped microspheres following thermal and enzymatic treatments.
Results: Heat-treated microspheres showed more birefringence and structural order than native starch, indicating incomplete gelatinization due to the alginate matrix.

Hen eggs are rich in proteins, which are a potential source of bioactive peptides. Incubation of fertilized egg changes the egg protein, which may affect the properties and activity of derived peptides. To understand these metamorphoses, hydrolysate fractions of 10-day incubated chicken embryo (CE) proteins of 0.

The objective of the research was to employ extrusion to increase the yield of simulated gastrointestinal digestion of protein corn gluten meal (CG). A single-screw extruder and a full factorial design with two center points were used. The optimal extrusion parameters were 40 % sample moisture, 140 °C and 54 rpm, resulting in a gastrointestinal digestion yield of 37.

This study aimed to examine the impact of composite enzymatic treatment on the physicochemical properties of oat milk, which would provide an effective strategy to improve the stability of plant-based milk. Oat milks treated with individual α-amylase or in combination with the protein glutaminase were produced. The result indicated that composite enzyme treatment significantly changed the physicochemical properties and significantly improved the stability of oat milk.

The demand for natural sweeteners as alternatives to sucrose is growing rapidly, driving research into enzymatic bioconversion methods for more efficient production. Glycyrrhizin (GL) is approximately 190 times sweeter than sucrose, but its excessive consumption has been linked to adverse health effects. Its hydrolysis yields glycyrrhetic acid 3-O-mono-β-D-glucuronide (GAMG), a compound nearly 1000 times sweeter than sucrose and with improved sensory and solubility properties.
