The reaction of the Nalpha-hippuryllysine (BzGK) with fructose was investigated in two model systems to obtain an insight in fructose-induced modification of lysine in bakery products. After BzGK and fructose had been heated in a buffered low-moisture model system (80 degrees C, 60 min, aW = 0.86, pH 7.4), formation of epimeric Heyns compounds Nalpha-hippuryl-Nepsilon-glucosyl-lysine (BzGGlcK) and Nalpha-hippuryl-Nepsilon-mannosyl-lysine (BzGManK) was clearly demonstrated using RP-HPLC with UV as well as MS detection. The Amadori compound Nalpha-hippuryl-Nepsilon-fructosyl-lysine (BzGFruK) was formed in glucose-containing samples. When BzGK was added to the dough of fructose-containing biscuits, the Heyns compounds were detectable after baking at 175 degrees C for 7 min. The yields of the Heyns compounds in the fructose-containing biscuits and the yield of the Amadori compound in the glucose-containing biscuits were determined to 33 and 63%, pointing to the fact that formation of substantial amounts of Heyns products is very likely in fructose-containing bakery products.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
