The present study was carried out to optimize the different conditions for cross‐linked β‐cyclodextrin (β‐CD) using adipic acid on cholesterol removal in cream. Different factors were β‐CD concentration, mixing temperature, mixing time and mixing speed. Cross‐linked β‐CD was prepared with adipic acid. When the cream was treated with 10% cross‐linked β‐CD, cholesterol removal was the highest at 90.7%, which was not significantly different from treatments with 15% and 20% cross‐linked β‐CD. Cholesterol removal was significantly influenced by mixing temperature, mixing time and mixing speed. After cholesterol removal from cream, the used cross‐linked β‐CD was washed for cholesterol dissociation and reused. For recycling study, the cholesterol removal in first trial was 91.5%, which was mostly same as that using new cross‐linked β‐CD. However, after 10 repeated trials using the same sample, only 83.4% of the cholesterol was removed from cream. Therefore, the present study indicated that the optimum conditions for cholesterol removal using cross‐linked β‐CD were 10%β‐CD addition, 30 min mixing with 1400 r.p.m. speed at 40°C with over 90% cholesterol removal. In addition, recycled β‐CD cross‐linked with adipic acid showed a similarly high recycling efficiency to unused β‐CD of about 90% up to the seventh trial.
This study was carried out to determine optimum conditions of five different factors (beta-cyclodextrin concentration, mixing temperature, mixing time, centrifugal force, and centrifugation time) in reduction of cholesterol in 3.6% fat, homogenized milk by application of beta-cyclodextrin. beta-Cyclodextrin at 0.5 to 1.5% provided 92.2 to 95.3% removal of cholesterol when mixed at 10 degrees C for 10 min. Among other factors, mixing time (5 to 20 min) did not significantly affect cholesterol removal. Removal was enhanced with increasing centrifugal forces up to 166x g (95.9%) but decreased thereafter. Various centrifugation times (5 to 20 min) did not have significant effects. Based on these results, we suggest that the optimum conditions for the process are addition of 1.5% beta-cyclodextrin, mixing temperature of 10 degrees C, 10-min mixing time, and centrifugation at 166x g for 10 min.
This study was carried out to determine the cholesterol removal rate and resulting changes in flavor, fatty acid and bitter amino acid production in reduced-cholesterol Cheddar cheese, made by cream separation followed by 10% beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) treatment. The cholesterol removal from the cheese was 92.1%. The production of short-chain free fatty acids (FFAs) increased the ripening time in control and cream-treated cheeses. The quantity of short-chain FFAs released between treatments during ripening was different, while not much difference was found in the production of neutral volatile compounds in the samples. Reduced-cholesterol cheese produced much higher levels of bitter amino acids than the control. In sensory analysis, the texture score of control Cheddar cheese increased significantly with ripening time; however, that of the cream treatment group decreased dramatically with ripening time. On the basis of our results, we conclude that the cheese made from beta-CD-treated cream had a higher rate of cholesterol removal and ripened rapidly.
Sprague-Dawley rats were fed diets containing 7.5% dietary fiber as cellulose (control), pectin, psyllium or oat bran with or without 0.3% added cholesterol for 3 wk. Among rats fed cholesterol, liver total lipid and cholesterol concentrations were significantly lower in groups fed pectin, psyllium and oat bran compared with cellulose-fed controls. Cholesterol feeding resulted in significantly greater liver cholesterol in rats fed cellulose, psyllium and oat bran but not in those fed pectin. Among rats fed cholesterol, total serum cholesterol levels were significantly lower in those fed pectin than in those fed psyllium, oat bran or cellulose. When cholesterol was fed, the oat bran-fed group had significantly higher butyrate and the pectin-fed group had significantly higher propionate concentrations in the hepatic portal vein than did cellulose-fed controls. The groups fed psyllium, oat bran and pectin all had significantly higher fecal neutral sterols than did the cellulose-fed group when cholesterol was fed. Without dietary cholesterol only pectin-fed rats had significantly higher fecal excretion of neutral sterols than those fed cellulose. Dietary fiber did not influence fecal acidic sterol excretion. However, the addition of cholesterol to these fiber diets was accompanied by a significantly higher bile acid excretion than that of animals fed cellulose without cholesterol. The results of this study indicate that soluble dietary fibers may exert their hypocholesterolemic effect by increasing excretion of fecal neutral sterols.
This study was designed to develop a microencapsulated iron that could be used to fortify milk and to determine the sensory properties of milk fortified with microencapsulated iron. Coating material was polyglycerol monostearate (PGMS), and selected core material was ferric ammonium sulfate. The highest efficiency of microencapsulation was 75% with 5:1:30 ratio (w/w/v) as coating to core materials to distilled water. Iron release was 12% when stored at 4 degrees C for 3 days. The TBA value was the lowest when 100 ppm of capsulated iron was added into milk and was significantly lower in capsulated groups compared with that in uncapsulated groups. In an in vitro study, only 3-5% of iron was released in simulated gastric fluid (pH 3, 4, 5, and 6). Comparatively, iron release increased dramatically from 12.3% (pH 5) to 95.7% (pH 8) for 60 min of incubation in simulated intestinal fluid. In a sensory analysis, most aspects except for metallic taste and color were not significantly different between control and capsulated iron fortified milk at 3 days of storage. However, between capsulated and uncapsulated groups, astringency, metallic, color, and overall scores were significantly different. The present study indicated that the use of microencapsulated iron with PGMS is effective for fortifying milk.
