Selected AbstractsPROPERTIES OF CYSTEINE PROTEINASE INHIBITORS FROM BLACK GRAM AND RICE BEANJOURNAL OF FOOD BIOCHEMISTRY, Issue 3 2001SOOTTAWAT BENJAKUL ABSTRACT Cysteine proteinase inhibitors (CPI) were purified to 59 and 54 fold from black gram (Vignaraungo (L.) Hepper) and rice bean (Vignaumbellata Thunb.), respectively, by using heal treatment, followed by chromatography on a carboxymethyl (CM)-papain-Sepharose affinity column. The purified inhibitors were highly inhibitory to papain and Pacific whiting cathepsin L in a concentration dependent manner. They were detected as a dark band on tricine-SDS-PAGE gel stained for inhibitory activity. The apparent molecular weights of purified CPI from black gram and rice bean seeds were estimated to be 12, 000 daltons. The purified inhibitors were thermostable up to 90C and active in the neutral and alkaline pH ranges.

Lowest gelatinization temperature was seen in black gram among the three commodities studied. Coarse rice registered a peak viscosity (PV) of 1,300 BU, fine rice 1,030 BU and black gram 1,080 BU. Cold paste viscosity (CPV) was highest in fine rice, lowest in black gram and intermediate in coarse rice. Breakdown (BD) was least in fine rice, highest in coarse rice and black gram lay in between. Values of total setback indicated the strong reason for use of coarse rice in parboiling as well as in idli and dosa preparations. Physical combination of black gram, with fine as well as coarse rice, reduced PV on an average to an extent of 26,30%. CPV was highest in fine rice and black gram combination compared with that of coarse rice and black gram. BD was high in the physical mix of coarse rice and black gram. In comparison with physical mix of fine rice and black gram, in the batter form before fermentation, the PV and CPV reduced by 23 and 34%, respectively, but there was no BD in this mix, indicating restricted swelling behavior in the batter before fermentation. Almost all viscographic parameters reduced before fermentation in coarse rice and black gram compared with their physical combination. Highest relative BD (BDr) was noticed in the pasting profile of black gram alone, probably because of the presence of mucilaginous principle. BDr values increased in batter form to various extents, before and after fermentation, compared with physical combination of rice and black gram. After fermentation, in coarse rice and black gram, the BDr value was low compared with that in fine rice and black gram. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS Fermented products are commonly ingested in India, especially in the southern states. Nowadays, batter is sold in public for the sake of convenience, as it is a common breakfast preparation. The practice is to use coarse rice for the preparation of idli, a steamed fermented product. It is generally not known how the rice behaves before and after fermentation while cooking. Hence, this work was planned, and results indicated the scientific basis for the usage of coarse rice in the preparation of rice products. The behavior of batter prepared from fine rice has also been described, although it is not an economically viable option.

Ramachandran Summary Six isonitrogenous (approximately 35% crude protein) and isocaloric (approximately 4.0 kcal g,1) diets were formulated incorporating raw and fermented black gram, Phaseolus mungo, seed meal at 20%, 30% and 40% levels by weight into a fishmeal-based control diet fed to rohu, Labeo rohita, fingerlings (mean weight, 1.81 ± 0.21 g) for 80 days for a study of fish performance. A particular bacterial strain (Bacillus sp.) isolated from the intestine of adult common carp (Cyprinus carpio) reared in the wild having significant amylolytic, cellulolytic, lipolytic and proteolytic activities was used for fermentation of seed meal for 15 days at 37 ± 2°C. Fermentation of P. mungo seed meal was effective in significantly reducing the crude fibre content and antinutritional factors such as tannins and phytic acid, and enhancing available free amino acids and fatty acids. In terms of growth, feed conversion ratio and protein efficiency ratio, the 30% fermented black gram seed meal incorporated diet resulted in a significantly (P < 0.05) better performance of rohu fingerlings. In general, growth and feed utilization efficiencies of diets containing fermented seed meal were superior to diets containing raw seed meal. The apparent protein digestibility (APD) values decreased with increasing levels of raw seed meal in the diets. The APD for raw seed meal was lower at all levels of inclusion in comparison to those for the fermented seed meals. The maximum deposition of protein in the carcass was recorded in fish fed the diet containing 40% fermented seed meal. The results indicate that fermented black gram seed meal can be incorporated in carp diets up to the 30% level compared to the 10% level of raw seed meal.

[source] PROPERTIES OF IDLI BATTER DURING ITS FERMENTATION TIMEJOURNAL OF FOOD PROCESSING AND PRESERVATION, Issue 1 2007S. BALASUBRAMANIAN ABSTRACT Idli is a traditional fermented rice and black gram-based breakfast food of South India. Idli batter was prepared from soaking polished parboiled rice and decorticated black gram for 4 h at 30 ± 1C in water. The soaked mass was ground to 0.5- to 0.7-mm particle size batter using wet grinder with adequate amount of water. The blend ratios of 2:1, 3:1 and 4:1 (v/v) batter were allowed for fermentation (0, 6, 12, 18 and 24 h) adding 2% of salt. The idli batter parameters viz. bulk density, pH, percent total acidity, flow behavior index and consistency coefficient were studied for different fermentation times and blend ratios. The bulk density, pH and percentage total acidity of batter during different fermentation times and blend ratios ranged between 0.94 and 0.59 g/cm3, 5.9 and 4.1 and 0.443 and 0.910%, respectively. The consistency coefficient at any fermentation time shows increasing trend as the rice to black gram ratio increased. The flow behavior index indicated strong non-Newtonian fluid behavior (pseudoplastic) of idli batter at different fermentation times and blend ratios. [source] EFFECT OF VARIETAL DIFFERENCES AND POLISHING OF RICE ON QUALITY PARAMETERS OF IDLIJOURNAL OF SENSORY STUDIES, Issue 5 2005CHANDINI S. KUMAR ABSTRACT The effect of varietal differences and polishing of rice on quality parameters of "idli," an Indian fermented product, were studied. In addition, the functional properties of decorticated (whole and split) black gram (Phaseolus mungo Roxb.), were also determined. Two varieties of raw rice, "Jaya" and "Minilong," and one variety of parboiled rice "Ponni" with two degrees of polishing (high and low) were selected. Idlis were prepared following standard procedures. Variations were observed in water and fat absorption capacities of two black gram samples. Emulsification capacity ranged from 102 to 110 mL/100 g. Foam capacities at different pH range were similar, but foam stability differed as a function of time. The pH of the fermented batter was between 4.1 and 4.8. Rice with a lesser degree of polishing fermented better with higher batter volume and microbial count, lesser shear value and gave softer idlis. However, sensory analysis revealed that idlis prepared with low-polish rice scored significantly lower for appearance and color quality compared with products prepared with high-polish rice. Significant differences were observed in the quality of flavor of all products. It can be concluded that the quality characteristics of Idli were influenced by the variety of rice and the degree of polishing, but the two types of black gram used, whole and split, had no effect.

[source] The effects of hydrothermal processing on antinutrients, protein and starch digestibility of food legumesINTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY, Issue 7 2005Zia -ur-Rehman Summary The effects of hydrothermal processing on antinutrients and the protein and starch digestibility of black grams, chick peas, lentils and red and white kidney beans was investigated. The tannins and phytic acid contents in these five food legumes ranged from 770 to 1100 and 970 to 1440 mg/100 g, respectively, whereas protein and starch digestibility of the raw food legumes was found to be from 33.8 to 37.6 and 36.8 to 42.0%, respectively. A reduction in the level of these antinutrients, along with an improvement in protein and starch digestibility, was observed after cooking. The tannins and phytic acid contents were reduced by 33.1,45.7 and 28.0,51.6%, respectively, because of the use of different hydrothermal treatments at 100, 121 and 128 °C. Maximum improvement in protein digestibility (95.7,105.1%) and starch digestibility (116.7,137.7%) was observed on cooking at 121 °C for 10 min. However, cooking in boiling water resulted in improvement in protein and starch digestibility of the food legumes by 86.9,93.3 and 84.0,90.4%, respectively. [source] | ||||||||||
