Thermal and non-thermal bioprocessing: a comprehensive review on millet starch properties and digestibility

Journal of Food Measurement & Characterization, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: unknown

Published: Dec. 15, 2024

Abstract Millets are known for their unique nutritional composition and functional properties, making them a promising solution to challenges food security. This review examines the effects of various processing techniques, both thermal (such as cooking, boiling, roasting, extrusion) non-thermal biological fermentation germination), on properties millet starch, its digestibility, value. Thermal methods cause gelatinization, retrogradation, structural changes in millets, which turn affect texture, attributes. Non-thermal bioprocessing methods, like fermentation, modify starch increase availability bioactive compounds while germination boosts content reduces anti-nutritional factors. summarizes recent research explaining mechanisms through these techniques influence addresses importance optimizing parameters such time, temperature, moisture levels achieve desired product characteristics minimizing nutrient loss. Additionally, implications improving functionality, sensory qualities, value millet-based products discussed. Overall, this provides valuable insights into strategies enhance nutritive functionality millets diverse applications.

Structural Characterization of Foxtail Millet (Setaria italica) Polysaccharides and Evaluation of Its Antioxidant and Immunostimulatory Activities

Antioxidants, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 14(1), P. 113 - 113

Published: Jan. 20, 2025

A water-soluble polysaccharide from foxtail millet (FM-D1) was isolated and purified through gradient ethanol precipitation column chromatography. Size-Exclusion Chromatography–Multi-Angle Light Scattering–Refractive Index (SEC-MALLS-RI) high-performance anion-exchange chromatography (HPAEC) analyses revealed that FM-D1 constitutes a highly neutral exclusively composed of glucose as the sugar unit, with molecular weight 14.823 kDa. The structural characterization results obtained gas chromatography–mass spectrometer (GC–MS) nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) spectra suggest primarily consists main chain linked by →4)-α-D-Glcp-(1→ minor quantities →4,6)-α-D-Glcp-(1→ to form chain, branching mainly α-D-Glcp-(1→ attached O-6 position residues. Based on these findings, antioxidant immunomodulatory activities were evaluated in vitro. indicated exhibited moderate 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) 2,2′-Azinobis-(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulphonate) (ABTS) radical scavenging capacity total (TAOC).

Simultaneous determination of the amylose and amylopectin content of foxtail millet flour by hyperspectral imaging

Frontiers in Remote Sensing, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 6

Published: Feb. 13, 2025

The levels of amylose and amylopectin in foxtail millet are important factors that influence grain quality. application organic fertilizers can affect the ratio components. These components typically determined using chemical analysis methods, which difficult to apply on a large scale for nutrient deficiency diagnosis do not meet original intention precise agricultural development. This study set up five different gradient treatments fertilizer (sheep manure) application. Hyperspectral imaging combined with chemometrics was employed achieve rapid non-destructive detection content flour. aim this determine optimal dosage Spectral data preprocessing used multiplicative scatter correction (MSC), algorithm competitive adaptive reweighted sampling (CARS), random frog (RF), iterated retaining informative variables (IRIVs) key band extraction.

Sensory Properties and Acceptability of Fermented Pearl Millet, a Climate-Resistant and Nutritious Grain, Among Consumers in the United States—A Pilot Study

Foods, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 14(5), P. 871 - 871

Published: March 3, 2025

Millets are climate-resistant, potential alternatives to wheat that could provide environmental, food security, and health benefits (e.g., lower glycemic index). However, millets high in phytic acid, which reduces the bioavailability of essential minerals. often fermented Africa parts Asia improve and, thus, nutritional value, but both unfermented may have flavors unfamiliar Western cultures. We conducted two pilot studies on sensory perception liking whole grain, United States pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum), a group U.S. consumers. In preliminary study, we compared treated under five different conditions (0, 48, 96 h fermentation fully submerged either distilled water or 5% NaCl solution at 28 °C). found spontaneous water, an inexpensive accessible technique consistent with consumer demand for minimally processed foods, reduced acid by ~72%. consumers (n = 12) rated flatbreads made as more bitter sour than millet. second participants 30) purchase intent bread 0 50% (w/w) substitution flour.
