1 Introduction

Today is known the mediator action of some biopolymers onstructure and lipid oxidation of sensitive foods among themare the functionalwhey proteins [1ndash3]Due to their antioxida-tive effects (which include chelating of prooxidant transitionmetals) lowmolecular weight easy absorption high activityhypoallergenicity and relatively high stability under differentconditions whey proteins may be utilized in formulations ofsubstitutes of synthetic compounds such as butylated hydrox-yanisole (BHA) butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) and tert-butyl hydroquinone (TBHQ) Mainly proteins as lactoferrin[4] serum albumin [5] and free radical scavenging by aminoacid residues such as cysteine and tyrosine [6 7] are describedas retardants of the fast deterioration of foods and to preventthe autoxidation of their components

However in order to improve their properties and func-tionality currently various researches have been carried outto get better effects of whey products on foods by treatmentsaimed at modifying chemical structure Recent studies showthat antioxidant capacity can be incremented by enzymatic

hydrolysis [8ndash11] chemical methods such as acetylationdeamination succinylation and reductive alkylation andcreating covalent cross-links (polymerization) between foodbiopolymers and carbohydrates [12 13] In particular specialattention has been provided to the effect exerted by reducingsugars on the structure and protein via Maillard reaction(MR)

conditions nature and concentration of proteins and sugarscontribute to this drastic and contrary effect

Sugar fragmentation and degradation of amino acids(Strecker degradation) occurring in advanced stages of thereaction may aggravate antioxidant action In addition poly-merized compounds which in turn produce irreversible orintermediates reactions and the interaction between themmay also affect the antioxidant activity of the productsof glycation Besides training of melanoidins characterizedmany of them with typical aroma and flavor [22] are found asproduct of MR in advanced stages Therefore the manipula-tion of whey proteins properties is an important topic in foodindustries and more studies are necessary to determine thepotential glycation and their influence on their functionalityas food additive Due to the complexity of MR it is necessaryto deepen the study of parameters to these reactions and typeof carbohydrate utilized in the glycation

The aim of this work was to evaluate the antioxidantactivity and functional properties of products obtained bycombination of enzymatic hydrolysis and glycation process ofproteins concentrates from milk bovine whey Hydrolyzateswere obtained by contact with Bacillus subtilis Nature of thesugar on functionality of products was analyzed by individualexperiments with ribose and glucose under controlled condi-tions of carbohydrate concentration temperature and pH

2 Materials and Methods

21 Materials Samples of 2 L of acid and sweet bovinewhey milk were provided by a cheese industry localized inMexico The 221015840azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonicacid) (ABTS) and reducing sugars glucose ribose and ara-binose were purchased from Sigma Aldrich Other chemicalsagents used were of analytical grade

22 Preparation of Whey Protein Concentrates Samples ofwhey of 1 L were filtered to remove fat and casein particlesby vacuum filtration usingWhatman filter paper number 40

Then whey was concentrated by ultrafiltration process(UF) to obtain whey proteins concentrates (WPC) In thiscase was used cross-flow zirconium-titanium ceramic mem-brane of 15 kDa cut-off and polymeric membrane (hollowfiber) of 6 kDa cut-off (Pall) Tubular housing of tangen-tial flow of membrane was adapted to a peristaltic pumpThe transmembrane pressures were adjusted and controlledto 30 and 03 bar in ceramic and polymeric membranerespectively Whey feeding was performed at 25∘C to bothconcentration processes In eachUF experiment two streamswere obtained the retentate (WPC) and permeate (lactoseand minerals mainly)

Diafiltration was performed by addition of five volumesof deionized water to the retentate to maintain a constantvolume during UF process [23]

UF was stopped after approximately 18 h of filtrationProteins in whey and WPC were determined by Biuretmethod The percent yield (119884) of WPC was calculated using

after UFTo perform the next experiments WPC products were

chosen according to the highest proteins concentration

23 Preparation of Hydrolyzed Products from Whey ProteinConcentrates Hydrolyzed productsWPCHwere obtained bydirect contact of substrates WPC with suspended biomass ofBacillus subtilis in relation 1 1 WPC samples were previouslyadjusted to pH 7 B subtilis was previously maintained in thelaboratory on nutrient broth agar slants (5 gL beef extract10 gL peptone 5 gL sodium chloride 18 gL agar and pH 7ndash74) and stored at 4∘C [23]

The hydrolysis was performed in a shaking bath (Shel-Lab) at 100 rpm and 50∘C In this experiment WPCwas usedas control group the sample was treated under the sameexperimental conditions

Upon completion of the hydrolysis experiment (24 h)the B subtilis was inactivated at a temperature of 70∘C in awater bath for 3min then the tubes were centrifuged for 15minutes at 5000 rpm and the supernatant was diluted withdilution factor of 100 to determine the protein concentrationby Biuret method [23] Degree of hydrolysis (DH) of WPCwas determined by measuring the proteins concentrationevery 2 hours during 12 h of uninterrupted hydrolysis andwascalculated by [23]

DH =119862119900minus 119862119891

where 119862119900is the initial protein concentration in WPC and

119862119891is the protein concentration in supernatant hydrolyzed

product for hydrolysis time

24 Preparation of Polymerized Products from Whey byGlycation Process Polymerized products from whey by gly-cation process were obtained by the coupling of the samplesWPC and WPCH with a carbohydrate (ribose and glucose)according to a method previously developed [24]

Carbohydrate solution was previously prepared by bufferdissolution pH 7 of sodium citrate and buffer dissolution pH9 of sodium carbonate each one with 02 g of carbohydrate

Samples of WPC and WPCH were placed in directcontact with carbohydrate (1 4 vv) at pH 7 and pH 9 inindividual experiments The mixtures were stirred at roomtemperature for 1 h to form uniform dispersion Afterwardsthe mixtures were then incubated at 50∘C during 20 h

For the period of glycation process each mixture wassampled in intervals of time of 5 h to 20 h Productswere char-acterized by color change antioxidant activity and functionalproperties

Sweet and acid whey were used as control group thesamples were only heated under the same experimentalconditions

Glycated productswere identified asWWPC-RWPC-Gand WPCH-R WPCH-G for whey whey concentrates and

25 Determination of the Properties of Whey Products

251 Antioxidant Activity The antioxidant activity of wheyproducts was assessed by scavenging of theABTS radical [25]

ABTS∙+ radical was previously prepared as follows00336 g of ammonium persulfate and 00194 g of ABTSwere diluted in 30mL of distilled water This solution wasincubated during 16 h at 25∘C in the dark After this time40mL of ABTS∙+ solution was dissolved in 960mL ofabsolute ethanol reaching an absorbance of 07 plusmn 02 to754 nm

A calibration curve using ascorbic acid 0002019M wasbuilt as standard substance Solutions from 0 to 08mMascorbic acid were prepared in this stage

Aliquots of 20 120583L of these solutions were added to 980 120583Lof ABTS solution (absorbance of 07 plusmn 02 to 754 nm)Each mixture was incubated in the dark for 7min and theabsorbance at 754 nm was measured for all samples

The ABTS radical scavenging activity (AA) was calcu-lated as inhibition percentage according to

AA =119860119888minus 119860119904

119860119888

(100) (3)

where 119860119888is the absorbance of the control (ABTS solution

without samples) and 119860119904is the absorbance of the samples of

ascorbic acidAntioxidant activity of whey products was analyzed in a

similarmanner Briefly 20120583L of each productwasmixedwith980 120583L of the diluted ABTS the mixture was incubated inthe dark for 7min and the absorbance at 734 nm was alsomeasured

The change in absorbance with the percent inhibition ofthe radical ABTS∙+ was calculated for each sample The datawere reported as antioxidant activity equivalent to ascorbicacid (AAEAA) and AA [23]

252 Functional Properties The functional properties ofwhey products were analyzed by measuring their solubilityat pH 45 and 68 emulsions and foaming capacities

Solubility was calculated as the total protein concentra-tion in the supernatant of products after centrifugation at pH46 as a percentage of the initial concentration at pH 68 [26]

Whey products (25 plusmn 5mg) were dispersed in 10mL ofdeionized water and the pH was adjusted with HCl (1 N)or NaOH (1N) when necessary The dispersion was mixedfor 30min and centrifuged continuously (119909g times 2056) for10min (Hettich Zentrifugen 32 R) The amount of protein inthe supernatant was determined by the Biuret method thesolubility was expressed as the percentage of protein in thesupernatant the total in the initial products

Emulsification capacity of whey products and their sta-bility were analyzed using the method developed by Pearceand Kinsella [27] In this case 15mL of corn oil was added to225mg whey products previously dissolved in 45mL 001Mphosphate buffer pH 7 The mixture was homogenized at20000 rpm at room temperature during 1min

The stability of products was determined in qualitativeform when a breakdown of the emulsion was observed thevolume of added oil was registered and used to calculate thepercent CEM by

CEM = 1198811198811

(100) (4)

where 119881 is mL of oil and 1198811is mL of whey products

Regarding foaming capacity (FC) of products it wasdetermined at pH 7 adjusting the samples with NaOH (01 N)at 20∘C

For the test 1mL of sample was mixed with 72mL ofdistilled water with stirring for 3min using a high-speedstirrer of 2000 rpm FC was determined by volume of sampleachieved after this time using

CE =119881119891minus 119881119894

119881119894

(100) (5)

where 119881119891and 119881

119894are the final and the initial volumes of

sample respectivelyThe color change of whey products obtained by MR

during glycation was also determined Spectra of 200 to700 nm using a Perkin Elmer spectrophotometer Lambda 35were obtained for each sample The results were shown asidentification of redness and yellowness color in the productsSample whey was used as standard to obtain the spectra

26 Statistical Analysis Statistica 70 software (Statsoft IncTulsa OK USA) was utilized to analyze the data obtainedfrom whey characteristics antioxidant activity and func-tional properties on glycation products in experiments withthree replicates Results were compared using ANOVA andTukey post hoc test (119875 lt 005)

3 Results and Discussion

31 Products fromWhey Proteins Concentrates Thesweet andacid whey samples showed pH of 65 and 45 respectivelyvalues representing the difference between both whey typeswhich depends on the technological process used to manu-facture the cheese

The average content (789 plusmn 01 and 873 plusmn 01 gL)indicated that both whey types did not have significantdifference in protein content and the values obtained werewithin those reported by Tovar Jimenez et al [23] (6ndash13 gL)Difference inwhey featuresmay be attributed to themilk usedand the cheese elaboration

Concerning UF processes of whey it was found thatperforming the UF with polymeric membrane was possibleto achieve an excellent yield in the protein concentrationamong 96ndash98 for sweet and acid whey The products fromUF were identified asWPC-1 (from sweet whey and retentatefrom polymeric membrane) WPC-2 (from acid whey andretentate from polymeric membrane) WPC-3 (from sweetwhey and retentate from ceramic membrane) WPC-4 (fromacid whey and retentate from ceramic membrane)

Figure 1 Percentage of yield in WPC by UF processes of sweet andacid whey with polymeric and ceramic membrane

and polymeric membrane of 3 kDa while Figure 1 shows thefinal percent yield (119884) of each WPC Difference between theyields in the UF is due to cut-off of membranes Thereforeit is possible that the proteins of great molecular weight asalbumin Immunoglobulins and lactoferrin are found intactin the WPC from ceramic membrane but fewer amountsof 120573-lactoglobulin and 120572-lactalbumin are present in theretentates from 15 kDa membrane since another amount ofthese proteins is found in their permeate streams

Under yield result inUF process in this stagewere chosenthe products WPC-1 and WPC-2 (retentates from polymericmembrane) to continue with their hydrolysis

32 Hydrolyzed Products from Whey Protein ConcentratesDegree of hydrolysis (DH) achieved during 24 h was 45ndash60 from WPC-1 and WPC-2 respectively Data of hydrol-ysis process are showed in Figure 2 This test indicated thatduring 12 h the changes were observed asmore representativein the two types of whey due to enzymatic action from Bsubtilis After this period the DH increased very slowly

Differences of enzymatic action from B subtilis have beenreported in other researches however other substrates andenzymatic extracts or purified enzymes from B subtilis havebeen used in these experiments For example maximumvalues around 70 of hydrolysis were found on rapeseedmeal with enzymatic extract [28] and similar percentagewith commercial proteases such as Alcalase on soybeanand Subtilisin on whey proteins can be seen in [29 30]Particularly in [30] it was found that 26 DH of wheyproteins is obtained after two hours of direct contact withSubtilisin to achieve 70 in 10 h which could be comparedwith DH obtained in this work

Tables 2 to 6 show a summary of the main results onfeatures of some glycosylated product from sweet and acidwhey with ribose and glucose In particular products withhigher antioxidant activity are shown in Figure 3

Principally data of Table 2 correspond to glycosylatedproducts from sweet and acid whey by heating of samplesAAEAAvalues indicated that a significant enhancement (055to 075) was observed in the products by only acid and sweetwhey heating for 15ndash20 h at pH 7 However no enhancementwas observed in samples at pH 9

In relation toWPC products a higher AAEAA value wasobtained in WPC-R conjugates (056 to 102) at pH 7 withheating time while the increment of AAEAA in WPC-Gconjugates was less (056 to 078) at pH 7 and pH 9 Data canbe observed in Tables 3 and 4

products with 45 DH at pH 9 achieved only 11 of AAEAAwhereas conjugate products by glycation of hydrolyzed withglucose showed always a lower increase in AAEAA

In terms of reactants nature it is understandable thatWCPH products were more reactive than WPC this is dueto presence of free amino acids However it was found thatmajor contributors to the radical scavenging capacity wereprimarily composed of WCPH although other authors notedthat either the intermediates or the final brown polymer canfunction as hydrogen donors and that sugar caramelizationcan also contribute to the antiradical activity [31]

The most reactive peptides are the ndashNH2groups of lysine

as well as the group ndashNH2located at the amino terminus

Therefore a higher content of residues lysine could lead toa higher degree of protein glycation The imidazole group ofhistidine the indole group of tryptophan and the guanidinogroup of arginine residues are also likely to react withreducing sugars but this possibility is lesser than aminogroups [32]

On the other hand different coloration in conjugatesproducts was also observed during the heating periodfor each carbohydrate However comparative experimentsshowed that glycosylated products with glucose developedan intense yellow color and characteristic odor after 15 h ofheating decreasing at pH 9 whereas glycosylated productswith ribose acquired a faint brownish yellow in similarperiod

Thus it is possible that ribose present as more reactivethan the glucose during the different stages of MR joining

Recent researches have shown that the antioxidant prop-erties of the proteins are enhanced by their conjugation par-ticularly with glucose Conjugate products from ovalbumin-saccharides [33] whey protein isolate (WPI) [34] and specificconjugates 120572-lactalbumin-glucose [35] showed an incre-ment in their antioxidant activity when the proteins werepolymerized with glucose more greatly These results werehighly consistent with the browning intensity of productsAuthors found that particularlyWPI-conjugates with glucoseafter 7 days of dry heating at 60∘C showed an increase in

antioxidant activity and an increase in the color It was seeninUV-vis absorption and fluorescence intensity Additionallycomparative data onWPI alone indicated that the conjugatesexhibited a better thermal stability

Similar results were found in the present research how-ever here it is shown that conjugates-ribose enhances antiox-idant action than glucose Difference of antioxidant actioncan also be associated with the presence of complex mix ofcompounds developed during glycation of whey productsGlucose could play an important role in the reductionof antioxidant activity Particularly hydroxyl groups couldinhibit this power [36 37]

Carbohydrate type and pH could explain these resultsHowever reactivity of carbohydrate in glycation process hasnot been described still in clear form According to [37] ithas been shown that reactivity decreases with the molecularweight of carbohydrate which would explain that cross-linking and aggregation protein with ribose is incrementedin comparison with the glucose and this behavior couldbe associated with the increment of antioxidant activity

of conjugate whey products-ribose Reactivity of differentsugars is also given by the availability of its carbonyl groupfor example glucose presents at least two closed forms (cyclicanomers) in which the carbonyl group has disappearedThusa correlation between the reaction rate of glycation and theproportion of the open form of each sugar is also found inthese data

Influence of pH in MR reaction during glycation processmay furthermore be observed on antioxidant action of wheyproducts at basic pH generally the polymerization rateincreases However the results cannot be described thusradically

In an early stage MR generates Amadori products(glycosylamines N-substituted by sugar-amine condensa-tion) which are present due to reactions between aminegroups of proteins and carbonyl groups within the reducingsugar while intermediate stage and advanced stage arecharacterized by formation of reactive intermediates such assugar-derived dicarbonyl compounds as 1-amino-2-deoxy-2-ketoses (eg methylglyoxal 3-deoxyosones or glyoxal)

Concerning functional properties of whey glycosylatedproducts in this work it is shown that conjugates fromWPCand WPCH had an excellent solubility however this valuereduced notably in long heating products Figure 4 showsfunctional properties of glycosylated products from wheymilk in individual experiments with ribose and glucose at50∘C and variations of pH 7 and pH 9

Emulsion property did not change with respect to valuein whey while foam property was incremented in some casesIn general a high volume of foam was obtained in WCP andhydrolyzed with heating in 10 h at pH 7

Under these data the best products found in these testswere those fromWPC-R andWPCH-R at pH 7 with heatingfor 10ndash15 hTherefore conjugates obtained could be excellentantioxidants andor functional additives in formulated foods[39]

Current studies have shown that conjugates from sodiumcaseinate [40] and 120573-lactoglobulin [41] with galactose havethe capacity to form and stabilize food emulsions The bestresults were obtained in these experiments with glycatedproteins at 50∘C and pH 5 during 48 h (corresponding to thelatest steps of MR) This behavior can be attributed to the

4 Conclusions

The antioxidant activity and functional properties of sweetand acid whey products were incremented by polymerizationof their proteins by glycation with heating and addition ofglucose and ribose

Glycation of whey protein concentrates (WPC) and thehydrolyzates (WPCH) with ribose and glucose showed dif-ferent oxidation values

The higher activity was found in WPC glycosylatesproducts with ribose at pH 7 and heating at 50∘C during10ndash15 h In the same way antioxidant activity in WPCH wasincremented by prior hydrolysis to glycation in productswith 25ndash45 hydrolysis degree at pH 9 In these processeswas found an important dependence on pH conditions andcarbohydrate reactivity therefore antioxidant activity wasassociated with carbohydrate type used in glycation of wheyproteins

Functional properties of these products (solubility emul-sion and foam) were also maintained or improved by theglycation with ribose

The color in glycosylates products with glucose was moreintense than in products with ribose however antioxidantactivity was not associated with this change Formation ofhydroxyl groups could probably inhibit this action

Other researchers are required to identify the structureof the compounds in the conjugates that could inhibit thecapacities of conjugates with glucose In addition practicalapplications of these products are necessary to test theirantioxidant capacity as additive in foods

conditions nature and concentration of proteins and sugarscontribute to this drastic and contrary effect

Sugar fragmentation and degradation of amino acids(Strecker degradation) occurring in advanced stages of thereaction may aggravate antioxidant action In addition poly-merized compounds which in turn produce irreversible orintermediates reactions and the interaction between themmay also affect the antioxidant activity of the productsof glycation Besides training of melanoidins characterizedmany of them with typical aroma and flavor [22] are found asproduct of MR in advanced stages Therefore the manipula-tion of whey proteins properties is an important topic in foodindustries and more studies are necessary to determine thepotential glycation and their influence on their functionalityas food additive Due to the complexity of MR it is necessaryto deepen the study of parameters to these reactions and typeof carbohydrate utilized in the glycation

The aim of this work was to evaluate the antioxidantactivity and functional properties of products obtained bycombination of enzymatic hydrolysis and glycation process ofproteins concentrates from milk bovine whey Hydrolyzateswere obtained by contact with Bacillus subtilis Nature of thesugar on functionality of products was analyzed by individualexperiments with ribose and glucose under controlled condi-tions of carbohydrate concentration temperature and pH

2 Materials and Methods

21 Materials Samples of 2 L of acid and sweet bovinewhey milk were provided by a cheese industry localized inMexico The 221015840azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonicacid) (ABTS) and reducing sugars glucose ribose and ara-binose were purchased from Sigma Aldrich Other chemicalsagents used were of analytical grade

22 Preparation of Whey Protein Concentrates Samples ofwhey of 1 L were filtered to remove fat and casein particlesby vacuum filtration usingWhatman filter paper number 40

Then whey was concentrated by ultrafiltration process(UF) to obtain whey proteins concentrates (WPC) In thiscase was used cross-flow zirconium-titanium ceramic mem-brane of 15 kDa cut-off and polymeric membrane (hollowfiber) of 6 kDa cut-off (Pall) Tubular housing of tangen-tial flow of membrane was adapted to a peristaltic pumpThe transmembrane pressures were adjusted and controlledto 30 and 03 bar in ceramic and polymeric membranerespectively Whey feeding was performed at 25∘C to bothconcentration processes In eachUF experiment two streamswere obtained the retentate (WPC) and permeate (lactoseand minerals mainly)

Diafiltration was performed by addition of five volumesof deionized water to the retentate to maintain a constantvolume during UF process [23]

UF was stopped after approximately 18 h of filtrationProteins in whey and WPC were determined by Biuretmethod The percent yield (119884) of WPC was calculated using

119884 = 1198812119862211988111198621(100) (1)

where 1198622is protein concentration in the retentate after UF

1198621is protein concentration in the whey sample 119881

1is initial

volume ofwhey sample and1198812is final volume in the retentate

after UFTo perform the next experiments WPC products were

chosen according to the highest proteins concentration

23 Preparation of Hydrolyzed Products from Whey ProteinConcentrates Hydrolyzed productsWPCHwere obtained bydirect contact of substrates WPC with suspended biomass ofBacillus subtilis in relation 1 1 WPC samples were previouslyadjusted to pH 7 B subtilis was previously maintained in thelaboratory on nutrient broth agar slants (5 gL beef extract10 gL peptone 5 gL sodium chloride 18 gL agar and pH 7ndash74) and stored at 4∘C [23]

The hydrolysis was performed in a shaking bath (Shel-Lab) at 100 rpm and 50∘C In this experiment WPCwas usedas control group the sample was treated under the sameexperimental conditions

Upon completion of the hydrolysis experiment (24 h)the B subtilis was inactivated at a temperature of 70∘C in awater bath for 3min then the tubes were centrifuged for 15minutes at 5000 rpm and the supernatant was diluted withdilution factor of 100 to determine the protein concentrationby Biuret method [23] Degree of hydrolysis (DH) of WPCwas determined by measuring the proteins concentrationevery 2 hours during 12 h of uninterrupted hydrolysis andwascalculated by [23]

DH =119862119900minus 119862119891

119862119891

(100) (2)

where 119862119900is the initial protein concentration in WPC and

119862119891is the protein concentration in supernatant hydrolyzed

product for hydrolysis time

24 Preparation of Polymerized Products from Whey byGlycation Process Polymerized products from whey by gly-cation process were obtained by the coupling of the samplesWPC and WPCH with a carbohydrate (ribose and glucose)according to a method previously developed [24]

Carbohydrate solution was previously prepared by bufferdissolution pH 7 of sodium citrate and buffer dissolution pH9 of sodium carbonate each one with 02 g of carbohydrate

Samples of WPC and WPCH were placed in directcontact with carbohydrate (1 4 vv) at pH 7 and pH 9 inindividual experiments The mixtures were stirred at roomtemperature for 1 h to form uniform dispersion Afterwardsthe mixtures were then incubated at 50∘C during 20 h

For the period of glycation process each mixture wassampled in intervals of time of 5 h to 20 h Productswere char-acterized by color change antioxidant activity and functionalproperties

Sweet and acid whey were used as control group thesamples were only heated under the same experimentalconditions

Glycated productswere identified asWWPC-RWPC-Gand WPCH-R WPCH-G for whey whey concentrates and

25 Determination of the Properties of Whey Products

251 Antioxidant Activity The antioxidant activity of wheyproducts was assessed by scavenging of theABTS radical [25]

ABTS∙+ radical was previously prepared as follows00336 g of ammonium persulfate and 00194 g of ABTSwere diluted in 30mL of distilled water This solution wasincubated during 16 h at 25∘C in the dark After this time40mL of ABTS∙+ solution was dissolved in 960mL ofabsolute ethanol reaching an absorbance of 07 plusmn 02 to754 nm

A calibration curve using ascorbic acid 0002019M wasbuilt as standard substance Solutions from 0 to 08mMascorbic acid were prepared in this stage

Aliquots of 20 120583L of these solutions were added to 980 120583Lof ABTS solution (absorbance of 07 plusmn 02 to 754 nm)Each mixture was incubated in the dark for 7min and theabsorbance at 754 nm was measured for all samples

The ABTS radical scavenging activity (AA) was calcu-lated as inhibition percentage according to

AA =119860119888minus 119860119904

119860119888

(100) (3)

where 119860119888is the absorbance of the control (ABTS solution

without samples) and 119860119904is the absorbance of the samples of

ascorbic acidAntioxidant activity of whey products was analyzed in a

similarmanner Briefly 20120583L of each productwasmixedwith980 120583L of the diluted ABTS the mixture was incubated inthe dark for 7min and the absorbance at 734 nm was alsomeasured

The change in absorbance with the percent inhibition ofthe radical ABTS∙+ was calculated for each sample The datawere reported as antioxidant activity equivalent to ascorbicacid (AAEAA) and AA [23]

252 Functional Properties The functional properties ofwhey products were analyzed by measuring their solubilityat pH 45 and 68 emulsions and foaming capacities

Solubility was calculated as the total protein concentra-tion in the supernatant of products after centrifugation at pH46 as a percentage of the initial concentration at pH 68 [26]

Whey products (25 plusmn 5mg) were dispersed in 10mL ofdeionized water and the pH was adjusted with HCl (1 N)or NaOH (1N) when necessary The dispersion was mixedfor 30min and centrifuged continuously (119909g times 2056) for10min (Hettich Zentrifugen 32 R) The amount of protein inthe supernatant was determined by the Biuret method thesolubility was expressed as the percentage of protein in thesupernatant the total in the initial products

Emulsification capacity of whey products and their sta-bility were analyzed using the method developed by Pearceand Kinsella [27] In this case 15mL of corn oil was added to225mg whey products previously dissolved in 45mL 001Mphosphate buffer pH 7 The mixture was homogenized at20000 rpm at room temperature during 1min

The stability of products was determined in qualitativeform when a breakdown of the emulsion was observed thevolume of added oil was registered and used to calculate thepercent CEM by

CEM = 1198811198811

(100) (4)

where 119881 is mL of oil and 1198811is mL of whey products

Regarding foaming capacity (FC) of products it wasdetermined at pH 7 adjusting the samples with NaOH (01 N)at 20∘C

For the test 1mL of sample was mixed with 72mL ofdistilled water with stirring for 3min using a high-speedstirrer of 2000 rpm FC was determined by volume of sampleachieved after this time using

CE =119881119891minus 119881119894

119881119894

(100) (5)

where 119881119891and 119881

119894are the final and the initial volumes of

sample respectivelyThe color change of whey products obtained by MR

during glycation was also determined Spectra of 200 to700 nm using a Perkin Elmer spectrophotometer Lambda 35were obtained for each sample The results were shown asidentification of redness and yellowness color in the productsSample whey was used as standard to obtain the spectra

26 Statistical Analysis Statistica 70 software (Statsoft IncTulsa OK USA) was utilized to analyze the data obtainedfrom whey characteristics antioxidant activity and func-tional properties on glycation products in experiments withthree replicates Results were compared using ANOVA andTukey post hoc test (119875 lt 005)

3 Results and Discussion

31 Products fromWhey Proteins Concentrates Thesweet andacid whey samples showed pH of 65 and 45 respectivelyvalues representing the difference between both whey typeswhich depends on the technological process used to manu-facture the cheese

The average content (789 plusmn 01 and 873 plusmn 01 gL)indicated that both whey types did not have significantdifference in protein content and the values obtained werewithin those reported by Tovar Jimenez et al [23] (6ndash13 gL)Difference inwhey featuresmay be attributed to themilk usedand the cheese elaboration

Concerning UF processes of whey it was found thatperforming the UF with polymeric membrane was possibleto achieve an excellent yield in the protein concentrationamong 96ndash98 for sweet and acid whey The products fromUF were identified asWPC-1 (from sweet whey and retentatefrom polymeric membrane) WPC-2 (from acid whey andretentate from polymeric membrane) WPC-3 (from sweetwhey and retentate from ceramic membrane) WPC-4 (fromacid whey and retentate from ceramic membrane)

Table 1 shows protein composition of WPC productsobtained by UF processes with ceramic membrane of 15 kDa

Figure 1 Percentage of yield in WPC by UF processes of sweet andacid whey with polymeric and ceramic membrane

and polymeric membrane of 3 kDa while Figure 1 shows thefinal percent yield (119884) of each WPC Difference between theyields in the UF is due to cut-off of membranes Thereforeit is possible that the proteins of great molecular weight asalbumin Immunoglobulins and lactoferrin are found intactin the WPC from ceramic membrane but fewer amountsof 120573-lactoglobulin and 120572-lactalbumin are present in theretentates from 15 kDa membrane since another amount ofthese proteins is found in their permeate streams

Under yield result inUF process in this stagewere chosenthe products WPC-1 and WPC-2 (retentates from polymericmembrane) to continue with their hydrolysis

32 Hydrolyzed Products from Whey Protein ConcentratesDegree of hydrolysis (DH) achieved during 24 h was 45ndash60 from WPC-1 and WPC-2 respectively Data of hydrol-ysis process are showed in Figure 2 This test indicated thatduring 12 h the changes were observed asmore representativein the two types of whey due to enzymatic action from Bsubtilis After this period the DH increased very slowly

Differences of enzymatic action from B subtilis have beenreported in other researches however other substrates andenzymatic extracts or purified enzymes from B subtilis havebeen used in these experiments For example maximumvalues around 70 of hydrolysis were found on rapeseedmeal with enzymatic extract [28] and similar percentagewith commercial proteases such as Alcalase on soybeanand Subtilisin on whey proteins can be seen in [29 30]Particularly in [30] it was found that 26 DH of wheyproteins is obtained after two hours of direct contact withSubtilisin to achieve 70 in 10 h which could be comparedwith DH obtained in this work

33 Polymerized Products from Whey Proteins by GlycationProcess Hundred eighty coded polymerized products wereobtained during 20 h Data are reported by conforming sweetor acid whey produced by only heating (W-1 and W-2)glycation of WPC from each whey type and ribose andgalactose (WPC-1 WPC-2 WPC-1-R WPC-1-G WPC-2-R and WPC-2-G) and glycation of hydrolyzed productsobtained with 25 35 and 45 DH of WPC of sweet wheyhydrolysis and 25 45 and 60 DH of WPC of acid wheyduring 4 8 and 12 h respectively (WPCH-1-25-R WPCH-1-35-R WPCH-1-45-R WPCH-2-25-R WPCH-2-45-R andWPCH-2-60-R) for pH 7 and pH 9 and of the same form toglucose

Tables 2 to 6 show a summary of the main results onfeatures of some glycosylated product from sweet and acidwhey with ribose and glucose In particular products withhigher antioxidant activity are shown in Figure 3

Principally data of Table 2 correspond to glycosylatedproducts from sweet and acid whey by heating of samplesAAEAAvalues indicated that a significant enhancement (055to 075) was observed in the products by only acid and sweetwhey heating for 15ndash20 h at pH 7 However no enhancementwas observed in samples at pH 9

In relation toWPC products a higher AAEAA value wasobtained in WPC-R conjugates (056 to 102) at pH 7 withheating time while the increment of AAEAA in WPC-Gconjugates was less (056 to 078) at pH 7 and pH 9 Data canbe observed in Tables 3 and 4

Information from WPCH conjugate products corre-sponding to glycosylated WPC with ribose previouslyhydrolyzed with biomass from B subtilis is shown in Tables5 and 6 AAEAA values of these products indicate thathydrolyzed WPCH can increment their AAEAA value bypolymerization with carbohydrates In general WPCH con-jugates exhibited adequate potency to react with free radicalsDH was sufficient to liberate reactive peptides and producepolymerized products with high AAEAAA values in allexperiments Particularly productswith 25DH fromWPC-acid whey-ribose at pH 7 achieved 155ndash185 of AAEAA and

products with 45 DH at pH 9 achieved only 11 of AAEAAwhereas conjugate products by glycation of hydrolyzed withglucose showed always a lower increase in AAEAA

In terms of reactants nature it is understandable thatWCPH products were more reactive than WPC this is dueto presence of free amino acids However it was found thatmajor contributors to the radical scavenging capacity wereprimarily composed of WCPH although other authors notedthat either the intermediates or the final brown polymer canfunction as hydrogen donors and that sugar caramelizationcan also contribute to the antiradical activity [31]

The most reactive peptides are the ndashNH2groups of lysine

as well as the group ndashNH2located at the amino terminus

Therefore a higher content of residues lysine could lead toa higher degree of protein glycation The imidazole group ofhistidine the indole group of tryptophan and the guanidinogroup of arginine residues are also likely to react withreducing sugars but this possibility is lesser than aminogroups [32]

On the other hand different coloration in conjugatesproducts was also observed during the heating periodfor each carbohydrate However comparative experimentsshowed that glycosylated products with glucose developedan intense yellow color and characteristic odor after 15 h ofheating decreasing at pH 9 whereas glycosylated productswith ribose acquired a faint brownish yellow in similarperiod

Thus it is possible that ribose present as more reactivethan the glucose during the different stages of MR joining

Recent researches have shown that the antioxidant prop-erties of the proteins are enhanced by their conjugation par-ticularly with glucose Conjugate products from ovalbumin-saccharides [33] whey protein isolate (WPI) [34] and specificconjugates 120572-lactalbumin-glucose [35] showed an incre-ment in their antioxidant activity when the proteins werepolymerized with glucose more greatly These results werehighly consistent with the browning intensity of productsAuthors found that particularlyWPI-conjugates with glucoseafter 7 days of dry heating at 60∘C showed an increase in

antioxidant activity and an increase in the color It was seeninUV-vis absorption and fluorescence intensity Additionallycomparative data onWPI alone indicated that the conjugatesexhibited a better thermal stability

Similar results were found in the present research how-ever here it is shown that conjugates-ribose enhances antiox-idant action than glucose Difference of antioxidant actioncan also be associated with the presence of complex mix ofcompounds developed during glycation of whey productsGlucose could play an important role in the reductionof antioxidant activity Particularly hydroxyl groups couldinhibit this power [36 37]

Carbohydrate type and pH could explain these resultsHowever reactivity of carbohydrate in glycation process hasnot been described still in clear form According to [37] ithas been shown that reactivity decreases with the molecularweight of carbohydrate which would explain that cross-linking and aggregation protein with ribose is incrementedin comparison with the glucose and this behavior couldbe associated with the increment of antioxidant activity

of conjugate whey products-ribose Reactivity of differentsugars is also given by the availability of its carbonyl groupfor example glucose presents at least two closed forms (cyclicanomers) in which the carbonyl group has disappearedThusa correlation between the reaction rate of glycation and theproportion of the open form of each sugar is also found inthese data

Influence of pH in MR reaction during glycation processmay furthermore be observed on antioxidant action of wheyproducts at basic pH generally the polymerization rateincreases However the results cannot be described thusradically

In an early stage MR generates Amadori products(glycosylamines N-substituted by sugar-amine condensa-tion) which are present due to reactions between aminegroups of proteins and carbonyl groups within the reducingsugar while intermediate stage and advanced stage arecharacterized by formation of reactive intermediates such assugar-derived dicarbonyl compounds as 1-amino-2-deoxy-2-ketoses (eg methylglyoxal 3-deoxyosones or glyoxal)

Concerning functional properties of whey glycosylatedproducts in this work it is shown that conjugates fromWPCand WPCH had an excellent solubility however this valuereduced notably in long heating products Figure 4 showsfunctional properties of glycosylated products from wheymilk in individual experiments with ribose and glucose at50∘C and variations of pH 7 and pH 9

Emulsion property did not change with respect to valuein whey while foam property was incremented in some casesIn general a high volume of foam was obtained in WCP andhydrolyzed with heating in 10 h at pH 7

Under these data the best products found in these testswere those fromWPC-R andWPCH-R at pH 7 with heatingfor 10ndash15 hTherefore conjugates obtained could be excellentantioxidants andor functional additives in formulated foods[39]

Current studies have shown that conjugates from sodiumcaseinate [40] and 120573-lactoglobulin [41] with galactose havethe capacity to form and stabilize food emulsions The bestresults were obtained in these experiments with glycatedproteins at 50∘C and pH 5 during 48 h (corresponding to thelatest steps of MR) This behavior can be attributed to the

4 Conclusions

The antioxidant activity and functional properties of sweetand acid whey products were incremented by polymerizationof their proteins by glycation with heating and addition ofglucose and ribose

Glycation of whey protein concentrates (WPC) and thehydrolyzates (WPCH) with ribose and glucose showed dif-ferent oxidation values

The higher activity was found in WPC glycosylatesproducts with ribose at pH 7 and heating at 50∘C during10ndash15 h In the same way antioxidant activity in WPCH wasincremented by prior hydrolysis to glycation in productswith 25ndash45 hydrolysis degree at pH 9 In these processeswas found an important dependence on pH conditions andcarbohydrate reactivity therefore antioxidant activity wasassociated with carbohydrate type used in glycation of wheyproteins

Functional properties of these products (solubility emul-sion and foam) were also maintained or improved by theglycation with ribose

The color in glycosylates products with glucose was moreintense than in products with ribose however antioxidantactivity was not associated with this change Formation ofhydroxyl groups could probably inhibit this action

Other researchers are required to identify the structureof the compounds in the conjugates that could inhibit thecapacities of conjugates with glucose In addition practicalapplications of these products are necessary to test theirantioxidant capacity as additive in foods

25 Determination of the Properties of Whey Products

251 Antioxidant Activity The antioxidant activity of wheyproducts was assessed by scavenging of theABTS radical [25]

ABTS∙+ radical was previously prepared as follows00336 g of ammonium persulfate and 00194 g of ABTSwere diluted in 30mL of distilled water This solution wasincubated during 16 h at 25∘C in the dark After this time40mL of ABTS∙+ solution was dissolved in 960mL ofabsolute ethanol reaching an absorbance of 07 plusmn 02 to754 nm

A calibration curve using ascorbic acid 0002019M wasbuilt as standard substance Solutions from 0 to 08mMascorbic acid were prepared in this stage

Aliquots of 20 120583L of these solutions were added to 980 120583Lof ABTS solution (absorbance of 07 plusmn 02 to 754 nm)Each mixture was incubated in the dark for 7min and theabsorbance at 754 nm was measured for all samples

The ABTS radical scavenging activity (AA) was calcu-lated as inhibition percentage according to

AA =119860119888minus 119860119904

119860119888

(100) (3)

where 119860119888is the absorbance of the control (ABTS solution

without samples) and 119860119904is the absorbance of the samples of

ascorbic acidAntioxidant activity of whey products was analyzed in a

similarmanner Briefly 20120583L of each productwasmixedwith980 120583L of the diluted ABTS the mixture was incubated inthe dark for 7min and the absorbance at 734 nm was alsomeasured

The change in absorbance with the percent inhibition ofthe radical ABTS∙+ was calculated for each sample The datawere reported as antioxidant activity equivalent to ascorbicacid (AAEAA) and AA [23]

252 Functional Properties The functional properties ofwhey products were analyzed by measuring their solubilityat pH 45 and 68 emulsions and foaming capacities

Solubility was calculated as the total protein concentra-tion in the supernatant of products after centrifugation at pH46 as a percentage of the initial concentration at pH 68 [26]

Whey products (25 plusmn 5mg) were dispersed in 10mL ofdeionized water and the pH was adjusted with HCl (1 N)or NaOH (1N) when necessary The dispersion was mixedfor 30min and centrifuged continuously (119909g times 2056) for10min (Hettich Zentrifugen 32 R) The amount of protein inthe supernatant was determined by the Biuret method thesolubility was expressed as the percentage of protein in thesupernatant the total in the initial products

Emulsification capacity of whey products and their sta-bility were analyzed using the method developed by Pearceand Kinsella [27] In this case 15mL of corn oil was added to225mg whey products previously dissolved in 45mL 001Mphosphate buffer pH 7 The mixture was homogenized at20000 rpm at room temperature during 1min

The stability of products was determined in qualitativeform when a breakdown of the emulsion was observed thevolume of added oil was registered and used to calculate thepercent CEM by

CEM = 1198811198811

(100) (4)

where 119881 is mL of oil and 1198811is mL of whey products

Regarding foaming capacity (FC) of products it wasdetermined at pH 7 adjusting the samples with NaOH (01 N)at 20∘C

For the test 1mL of sample was mixed with 72mL ofdistilled water with stirring for 3min using a high-speedstirrer of 2000 rpm FC was determined by volume of sampleachieved after this time using

CE =119881119891minus 119881119894

119881119894

(100) (5)

where 119881119891and 119881

119894are the final and the initial volumes of

sample respectivelyThe color change of whey products obtained by MR

during glycation was also determined Spectra of 200 to700 nm using a Perkin Elmer spectrophotometer Lambda 35were obtained for each sample The results were shown asidentification of redness and yellowness color in the productsSample whey was used as standard to obtain the spectra

26 Statistical Analysis Statistica 70 software (Statsoft IncTulsa OK USA) was utilized to analyze the data obtainedfrom whey characteristics antioxidant activity and func-tional properties on glycation products in experiments withthree replicates Results were compared using ANOVA andTukey post hoc test (119875 lt 005)

3 Results and Discussion

31 Products fromWhey Proteins Concentrates Thesweet andacid whey samples showed pH of 65 and 45 respectivelyvalues representing the difference between both whey typeswhich depends on the technological process used to manu-facture the cheese

The average content (789 plusmn 01 and 873 plusmn 01 gL)indicated that both whey types did not have significantdifference in protein content and the values obtained werewithin those reported by Tovar Jimenez et al [23] (6ndash13 gL)Difference inwhey featuresmay be attributed to themilk usedand the cheese elaboration

Concerning UF processes of whey it was found thatperforming the UF with polymeric membrane was possibleto achieve an excellent yield in the protein concentrationamong 96ndash98 for sweet and acid whey The products fromUF were identified asWPC-1 (from sweet whey and retentatefrom polymeric membrane) WPC-2 (from acid whey andretentate from polymeric membrane) WPC-3 (from sweetwhey and retentate from ceramic membrane) WPC-4 (fromacid whey and retentate from ceramic membrane)

Table 1 shows protein composition of WPC productsobtained by UF processes with ceramic membrane of 15 kDa

Figure 1 Percentage of yield in WPC by UF processes of sweet andacid whey with polymeric and ceramic membrane

and polymeric membrane of 3 kDa while Figure 1 shows thefinal percent yield (119884) of each WPC Difference between theyields in the UF is due to cut-off of membranes Thereforeit is possible that the proteins of great molecular weight asalbumin Immunoglobulins and lactoferrin are found intactin the WPC from ceramic membrane but fewer amountsof 120573-lactoglobulin and 120572-lactalbumin are present in theretentates from 15 kDa membrane since another amount ofthese proteins is found in their permeate streams

Under yield result inUF process in this stagewere chosenthe products WPC-1 and WPC-2 (retentates from polymericmembrane) to continue with their hydrolysis

32 Hydrolyzed Products from Whey Protein ConcentratesDegree of hydrolysis (DH) achieved during 24 h was 45ndash60 from WPC-1 and WPC-2 respectively Data of hydrol-ysis process are showed in Figure 2 This test indicated thatduring 12 h the changes were observed asmore representativein the two types of whey due to enzymatic action from Bsubtilis After this period the DH increased very slowly

Differences of enzymatic action from B subtilis have beenreported in other researches however other substrates andenzymatic extracts or purified enzymes from B subtilis havebeen used in these experiments For example maximumvalues around 70 of hydrolysis were found on rapeseedmeal with enzymatic extract [28] and similar percentagewith commercial proteases such as Alcalase on soybeanand Subtilisin on whey proteins can be seen in [29 30]Particularly in [30] it was found that 26 DH of wheyproteins is obtained after two hours of direct contact withSubtilisin to achieve 70 in 10 h which could be comparedwith DH obtained in this work

33 Polymerized Products from Whey Proteins by GlycationProcess Hundred eighty coded polymerized products wereobtained during 20 h Data are reported by conforming sweetor acid whey produced by only heating (W-1 and W-2)glycation of WPC from each whey type and ribose andgalactose (WPC-1 WPC-2 WPC-1-R WPC-1-G WPC-2-R and WPC-2-G) and glycation of hydrolyzed productsobtained with 25 35 and 45 DH of WPC of sweet wheyhydrolysis and 25 45 and 60 DH of WPC of acid wheyduring 4 8 and 12 h respectively (WPCH-1-25-R WPCH-1-35-R WPCH-1-45-R WPCH-2-25-R WPCH-2-45-R andWPCH-2-60-R) for pH 7 and pH 9 and of the same form toglucose

Tables 2 to 6 show a summary of the main results onfeatures of some glycosylated product from sweet and acidwhey with ribose and glucose In particular products withhigher antioxidant activity are shown in Figure 3

Principally data of Table 2 correspond to glycosylatedproducts from sweet and acid whey by heating of samplesAAEAAvalues indicated that a significant enhancement (055to 075) was observed in the products by only acid and sweetwhey heating for 15ndash20 h at pH 7 However no enhancementwas observed in samples at pH 9

In relation toWPC products a higher AAEAA value wasobtained in WPC-R conjugates (056 to 102) at pH 7 withheating time while the increment of AAEAA in WPC-Gconjugates was less (056 to 078) at pH 7 and pH 9 Data canbe observed in Tables 3 and 4

Information from WPCH conjugate products corre-sponding to glycosylated WPC with ribose previouslyhydrolyzed with biomass from B subtilis is shown in Tables5 and 6 AAEAA values of these products indicate thathydrolyzed WPCH can increment their AAEAA value bypolymerization with carbohydrates In general WPCH con-jugates exhibited adequate potency to react with free radicalsDH was sufficient to liberate reactive peptides and producepolymerized products with high AAEAAA values in allexperiments Particularly productswith 25DH fromWPC-acid whey-ribose at pH 7 achieved 155ndash185 of AAEAA and

products with 45 DH at pH 9 achieved only 11 of AAEAAwhereas conjugate products by glycation of hydrolyzed withglucose showed always a lower increase in AAEAA

In terms of reactants nature it is understandable thatWCPH products were more reactive than WPC this is dueto presence of free amino acids However it was found thatmajor contributors to the radical scavenging capacity wereprimarily composed of WCPH although other authors notedthat either the intermediates or the final brown polymer canfunction as hydrogen donors and that sugar caramelizationcan also contribute to the antiradical activity [31]

The most reactive peptides are the ndashNH2groups of lysine

as well as the group ndashNH2located at the amino terminus

Therefore a higher content of residues lysine could lead toa higher degree of protein glycation The imidazole group ofhistidine the indole group of tryptophan and the guanidinogroup of arginine residues are also likely to react withreducing sugars but this possibility is lesser than aminogroups [32]

On the other hand different coloration in conjugatesproducts was also observed during the heating periodfor each carbohydrate However comparative experimentsshowed that glycosylated products with glucose developedan intense yellow color and characteristic odor after 15 h ofheating decreasing at pH 9 whereas glycosylated productswith ribose acquired a faint brownish yellow in similarperiod

Thus it is possible that ribose present as more reactivethan the glucose during the different stages of MR joining

Recent researches have shown that the antioxidant prop-erties of the proteins are enhanced by their conjugation par-ticularly with glucose Conjugate products from ovalbumin-saccharides [33] whey protein isolate (WPI) [34] and specificconjugates 120572-lactalbumin-glucose [35] showed an incre-ment in their antioxidant activity when the proteins werepolymerized with glucose more greatly These results werehighly consistent with the browning intensity of productsAuthors found that particularlyWPI-conjugates with glucoseafter 7 days of dry heating at 60∘C showed an increase in

antioxidant activity and an increase in the color It was seeninUV-vis absorption and fluorescence intensity Additionallycomparative data onWPI alone indicated that the conjugatesexhibited a better thermal stability

Similar results were found in the present research how-ever here it is shown that conjugates-ribose enhances antiox-idant action than glucose Difference of antioxidant actioncan also be associated with the presence of complex mix ofcompounds developed during glycation of whey productsGlucose could play an important role in the reductionof antioxidant activity Particularly hydroxyl groups couldinhibit this power [36 37]

Carbohydrate type and pH could explain these resultsHowever reactivity of carbohydrate in glycation process hasnot been described still in clear form According to [37] ithas been shown that reactivity decreases with the molecularweight of carbohydrate which would explain that cross-linking and aggregation protein with ribose is incrementedin comparison with the glucose and this behavior couldbe associated with the increment of antioxidant activity

of conjugate whey products-ribose Reactivity of differentsugars is also given by the availability of its carbonyl groupfor example glucose presents at least two closed forms (cyclicanomers) in which the carbonyl group has disappearedThusa correlation between the reaction rate of glycation and theproportion of the open form of each sugar is also found inthese data

Influence of pH in MR reaction during glycation processmay furthermore be observed on antioxidant action of wheyproducts at basic pH generally the polymerization rateincreases However the results cannot be described thusradically

In an early stage MR generates Amadori products(glycosylamines N-substituted by sugar-amine condensa-tion) which are present due to reactions between aminegroups of proteins and carbonyl groups within the reducingsugar while intermediate stage and advanced stage arecharacterized by formation of reactive intermediates such assugar-derived dicarbonyl compounds as 1-amino-2-deoxy-2-ketoses (eg methylglyoxal 3-deoxyosones or glyoxal)

Concerning functional properties of whey glycosylatedproducts in this work it is shown that conjugates fromWPCand WPCH had an excellent solubility however this valuereduced notably in long heating products Figure 4 showsfunctional properties of glycosylated products from wheymilk in individual experiments with ribose and glucose at50∘C and variations of pH 7 and pH 9

Emulsion property did not change with respect to valuein whey while foam property was incremented in some casesIn general a high volume of foam was obtained in WCP andhydrolyzed with heating in 10 h at pH 7

Under these data the best products found in these testswere those fromWPC-R andWPCH-R at pH 7 with heatingfor 10ndash15 hTherefore conjugates obtained could be excellentantioxidants andor functional additives in formulated foods[39]

Current studies have shown that conjugates from sodiumcaseinate [40] and 120573-lactoglobulin [41] with galactose havethe capacity to form and stabilize food emulsions The bestresults were obtained in these experiments with glycatedproteins at 50∘C and pH 5 during 48 h (corresponding to thelatest steps of MR) This behavior can be attributed to the

4 Conclusions

The antioxidant activity and functional properties of sweetand acid whey products were incremented by polymerizationof their proteins by glycation with heating and addition ofglucose and ribose

Glycation of whey protein concentrates (WPC) and thehydrolyzates (WPCH) with ribose and glucose showed dif-ferent oxidation values

The higher activity was found in WPC glycosylatesproducts with ribose at pH 7 and heating at 50∘C during10ndash15 h In the same way antioxidant activity in WPCH wasincremented by prior hydrolysis to glycation in productswith 25ndash45 hydrolysis degree at pH 9 In these processeswas found an important dependence on pH conditions andcarbohydrate reactivity therefore antioxidant activity wasassociated with carbohydrate type used in glycation of wheyproteins

Functional properties of these products (solubility emul-sion and foam) were also maintained or improved by theglycation with ribose

The color in glycosylates products with glucose was moreintense than in products with ribose however antioxidantactivity was not associated with this change Formation ofhydroxyl groups could probably inhibit this action

Other researchers are required to identify the structureof the compounds in the conjugates that could inhibit thecapacities of conjugates with glucose In addition practicalapplications of these products are necessary to test theirantioxidant capacity as additive in foods

Figure 1 Percentage of yield in WPC by UF processes of sweet andacid whey with polymeric and ceramic membrane

and polymeric membrane of 3 kDa while Figure 1 shows thefinal percent yield (119884) of each WPC Difference between theyields in the UF is due to cut-off of membranes Thereforeit is possible that the proteins of great molecular weight asalbumin Immunoglobulins and lactoferrin are found intactin the WPC from ceramic membrane but fewer amountsof 120573-lactoglobulin and 120572-lactalbumin are present in theretentates from 15 kDa membrane since another amount ofthese proteins is found in their permeate streams

Under yield result inUF process in this stagewere chosenthe products WPC-1 and WPC-2 (retentates from polymericmembrane) to continue with their hydrolysis

32 Hydrolyzed Products from Whey Protein ConcentratesDegree of hydrolysis (DH) achieved during 24 h was 45ndash60 from WPC-1 and WPC-2 respectively Data of hydrol-ysis process are showed in Figure 2 This test indicated thatduring 12 h the changes were observed asmore representativein the two types of whey due to enzymatic action from Bsubtilis After this period the DH increased very slowly

Differences of enzymatic action from B subtilis have beenreported in other researches however other substrates andenzymatic extracts or purified enzymes from B subtilis havebeen used in these experiments For example maximumvalues around 70 of hydrolysis were found on rapeseedmeal with enzymatic extract [28] and similar percentagewith commercial proteases such as Alcalase on soybeanand Subtilisin on whey proteins can be seen in [29 30]Particularly in [30] it was found that 26 DH of wheyproteins is obtained after two hours of direct contact withSubtilisin to achieve 70 in 10 h which could be comparedwith DH obtained in this work

33 Polymerized Products from Whey Proteins by GlycationProcess Hundred eighty coded polymerized products wereobtained during 20 h Data are reported by conforming sweetor acid whey produced by only heating (W-1 and W-2)glycation of WPC from each whey type and ribose andgalactose (WPC-1 WPC-2 WPC-1-R WPC-1-G WPC-2-R and WPC-2-G) and glycation of hydrolyzed productsobtained with 25 35 and 45 DH of WPC of sweet wheyhydrolysis and 25 45 and 60 DH of WPC of acid wheyduring 4 8 and 12 h respectively (WPCH-1-25-R WPCH-1-35-R WPCH-1-45-R WPCH-2-25-R WPCH-2-45-R andWPCH-2-60-R) for pH 7 and pH 9 and of the same form toglucose

Tables 2 to 6 show a summary of the main results onfeatures of some glycosylated product from sweet and acidwhey with ribose and glucose In particular products withhigher antioxidant activity are shown in Figure 3

Principally data of Table 2 correspond to glycosylatedproducts from sweet and acid whey by heating of samplesAAEAAvalues indicated that a significant enhancement (055to 075) was observed in the products by only acid and sweetwhey heating for 15ndash20 h at pH 7 However no enhancementwas observed in samples at pH 9

In relation toWPC products a higher AAEAA value wasobtained in WPC-R conjugates (056 to 102) at pH 7 withheating time while the increment of AAEAA in WPC-Gconjugates was less (056 to 078) at pH 7 and pH 9 Data canbe observed in Tables 3 and 4

Information from WPCH conjugate products corre-sponding to glycosylated WPC with ribose previouslyhydrolyzed with biomass from B subtilis is shown in Tables5 and 6 AAEAA values of these products indicate thathydrolyzed WPCH can increment their AAEAA value bypolymerization with carbohydrates In general WPCH con-jugates exhibited adequate potency to react with free radicalsDH was sufficient to liberate reactive peptides and producepolymerized products with high AAEAAA values in allexperiments Particularly productswith 25DH fromWPC-acid whey-ribose at pH 7 achieved 155ndash185 of AAEAA and

products with 45 DH at pH 9 achieved only 11 of AAEAAwhereas conjugate products by glycation of hydrolyzed withglucose showed always a lower increase in AAEAA

In terms of reactants nature it is understandable thatWCPH products were more reactive than WPC this is dueto presence of free amino acids However it was found thatmajor contributors to the radical scavenging capacity wereprimarily composed of WCPH although other authors notedthat either the intermediates or the final brown polymer canfunction as hydrogen donors and that sugar caramelizationcan also contribute to the antiradical activity [31]

The most reactive peptides are the ndashNH2groups of lysine

as well as the group ndashNH2located at the amino terminus

Therefore a higher content of residues lysine could lead toa higher degree of protein glycation The imidazole group ofhistidine the indole group of tryptophan and the guanidinogroup of arginine residues are also likely to react withreducing sugars but this possibility is lesser than aminogroups [32]

On the other hand different coloration in conjugatesproducts was also observed during the heating periodfor each carbohydrate However comparative experimentsshowed that glycosylated products with glucose developedan intense yellow color and characteristic odor after 15 h ofheating decreasing at pH 9 whereas glycosylated productswith ribose acquired a faint brownish yellow in similarperiod

Thus it is possible that ribose present as more reactivethan the glucose during the different stages of MR joining

Recent researches have shown that the antioxidant prop-erties of the proteins are enhanced by their conjugation par-ticularly with glucose Conjugate products from ovalbumin-saccharides [33] whey protein isolate (WPI) [34] and specificconjugates 120572-lactalbumin-glucose [35] showed an incre-ment in their antioxidant activity when the proteins werepolymerized with glucose more greatly These results werehighly consistent with the browning intensity of productsAuthors found that particularlyWPI-conjugates with glucoseafter 7 days of dry heating at 60∘C showed an increase in

antioxidant activity and an increase in the color It was seeninUV-vis absorption and fluorescence intensity Additionallycomparative data onWPI alone indicated that the conjugatesexhibited a better thermal stability

Similar results were found in the present research how-ever here it is shown that conjugates-ribose enhances antiox-idant action than glucose Difference of antioxidant actioncan also be associated with the presence of complex mix ofcompounds developed during glycation of whey productsGlucose could play an important role in the reductionof antioxidant activity Particularly hydroxyl groups couldinhibit this power [36 37]

Carbohydrate type and pH could explain these resultsHowever reactivity of carbohydrate in glycation process hasnot been described still in clear form According to [37] ithas been shown that reactivity decreases with the molecularweight of carbohydrate which would explain that cross-linking and aggregation protein with ribose is incrementedin comparison with the glucose and this behavior couldbe associated with the increment of antioxidant activity

of conjugate whey products-ribose Reactivity of differentsugars is also given by the availability of its carbonyl groupfor example glucose presents at least two closed forms (cyclicanomers) in which the carbonyl group has disappearedThusa correlation between the reaction rate of glycation and theproportion of the open form of each sugar is also found inthese data

Influence of pH in MR reaction during glycation processmay furthermore be observed on antioxidant action of wheyproducts at basic pH generally the polymerization rateincreases However the results cannot be described thusradically

In an early stage MR generates Amadori products(glycosylamines N-substituted by sugar-amine condensa-tion) which are present due to reactions between aminegroups of proteins and carbonyl groups within the reducingsugar while intermediate stage and advanced stage arecharacterized by formation of reactive intermediates such assugar-derived dicarbonyl compounds as 1-amino-2-deoxy-2-ketoses (eg methylglyoxal 3-deoxyosones or glyoxal)

which are produced with time resulting in the formation ofpolymerized compounds that may be interfering substancesaffecting the antioxidant activity In addition alkaline andorheat treatment of proteins may be associated with the pro-duction of several types of cross-linked amino acids such asdehydroalanine lysinoalanine and histidinoalanine whichmay affect also antioxidant activity and the nutritional valueof the treated whey proteins [37] Dehydration of sugarsoccurs by two routes Under acidic conditions are formedfurfurals and at alkaline conditions are formed the reductoneThe enolization of the C

Concerning functional properties of whey glycosylatedproducts in this work it is shown that conjugates fromWPCand WPCH had an excellent solubility however this valuereduced notably in long heating products Figure 4 showsfunctional properties of glycosylated products from wheymilk in individual experiments with ribose and glucose at50∘C and variations of pH 7 and pH 9

Emulsion property did not change with respect to valuein whey while foam property was incremented in some casesIn general a high volume of foam was obtained in WCP andhydrolyzed with heating in 10 h at pH 7

Under these data the best products found in these testswere those fromWPC-R andWPCH-R at pH 7 with heatingfor 10ndash15 hTherefore conjugates obtained could be excellentantioxidants andor functional additives in formulated foods[39]

Current studies have shown that conjugates from sodiumcaseinate [40] and 120573-lactoglobulin [41] with galactose havethe capacity to form and stabilize food emulsions The bestresults were obtained in these experiments with glycatedproteins at 50∘C and pH 5 during 48 h (corresponding to thelatest steps of MR) This behavior can be attributed to the

4 Conclusions

The antioxidant activity and functional properties of sweetand acid whey products were incremented by polymerizationof their proteins by glycation with heating and addition ofglucose and ribose

Glycation of whey protein concentrates (WPC) and thehydrolyzates (WPCH) with ribose and glucose showed dif-ferent oxidation values

The higher activity was found in WPC glycosylatesproducts with ribose at pH 7 and heating at 50∘C during10ndash15 h In the same way antioxidant activity in WPCH wasincremented by prior hydrolysis to glycation in productswith 25ndash45 hydrolysis degree at pH 9 In these processeswas found an important dependence on pH conditions andcarbohydrate reactivity therefore antioxidant activity wasassociated with carbohydrate type used in glycation of wheyproteins

Functional properties of these products (solubility emul-sion and foam) were also maintained or improved by theglycation with ribose

The color in glycosylates products with glucose was moreintense than in products with ribose however antioxidantactivity was not associated with this change Formation ofhydroxyl groups could probably inhibit this action

Other researchers are required to identify the structureof the compounds in the conjugates that could inhibit thecapacities of conjugates with glucose In addition practicalapplications of these products are necessary to test theirantioxidant capacity as additive in foods

products with 45 DH at pH 9 achieved only 11 of AAEAAwhereas conjugate products by glycation of hydrolyzed withglucose showed always a lower increase in AAEAA

In terms of reactants nature it is understandable thatWCPH products were more reactive than WPC this is dueto presence of free amino acids However it was found thatmajor contributors to the radical scavenging capacity wereprimarily composed of WCPH although other authors notedthat either the intermediates or the final brown polymer canfunction as hydrogen donors and that sugar caramelizationcan also contribute to the antiradical activity [31]

The most reactive peptides are the ndashNH2groups of lysine

as well as the group ndashNH2located at the amino terminus

Therefore a higher content of residues lysine could lead toa higher degree of protein glycation The imidazole group ofhistidine the indole group of tryptophan and the guanidinogroup of arginine residues are also likely to react withreducing sugars but this possibility is lesser than aminogroups [32]

On the other hand different coloration in conjugatesproducts was also observed during the heating periodfor each carbohydrate However comparative experimentsshowed that glycosylated products with glucose developedan intense yellow color and characteristic odor after 15 h ofheating decreasing at pH 9 whereas glycosylated productswith ribose acquired a faint brownish yellow in similarperiod

Thus it is possible that ribose present as more reactivethan the glucose during the different stages of MR joining

antioxidant activity and an increase in the color It was seeninUV-vis absorption and fluorescence intensity Additionallycomparative data onWPI alone indicated that the conjugatesexhibited a better thermal stability

Similar results were found in the present research how-ever here it is shown that conjugates-ribose enhances antiox-idant action than glucose Difference of antioxidant actioncan also be associated with the presence of complex mix ofcompounds developed during glycation of whey productsGlucose could play an important role in the reductionof antioxidant activity Particularly hydroxyl groups couldinhibit this power [36 37]

Carbohydrate type and pH could explain these resultsHowever reactivity of carbohydrate in glycation process hasnot been described still in clear form According to [37] ithas been shown that reactivity decreases with the molecularweight of carbohydrate which would explain that cross-linking and aggregation protein with ribose is incrementedin comparison with the glucose and this behavior couldbe associated with the increment of antioxidant activity

of conjugate whey products-ribose Reactivity of differentsugars is also given by the availability of its carbonyl groupfor example glucose presents at least two closed forms (cyclicanomers) in which the carbonyl group has disappearedThusa correlation between the reaction rate of glycation and theproportion of the open form of each sugar is also found inthese data

Influence of pH in MR reaction during glycation processmay furthermore be observed on antioxidant action of wheyproducts at basic pH generally the polymerization rateincreases However the results cannot be described thusradically

In an early stage MR generates Amadori products(glycosylamines N-substituted by sugar-amine condensa-tion) which are present due to reactions between aminegroups of proteins and carbonyl groups within the reducingsugar while intermediate stage and advanced stage arecharacterized by formation of reactive intermediates such assugar-derived dicarbonyl compounds as 1-amino-2-deoxy-2-ketoses (eg methylglyoxal 3-deoxyosones or glyoxal)

Concerning functional properties of whey glycosylatedproducts in this work it is shown that conjugates fromWPCand WPCH had an excellent solubility however this valuereduced notably in long heating products Figure 4 showsfunctional properties of glycosylated products from wheymilk in individual experiments with ribose and glucose at50∘C and variations of pH 7 and pH 9

Emulsion property did not change with respect to valuein whey while foam property was incremented in some casesIn general a high volume of foam was obtained in WCP andhydrolyzed with heating in 10 h at pH 7

Under these data the best products found in these testswere those fromWPC-R andWPCH-R at pH 7 with heatingfor 10ndash15 hTherefore conjugates obtained could be excellentantioxidants andor functional additives in formulated foods[39]

Current studies have shown that conjugates from sodiumcaseinate [40] and 120573-lactoglobulin [41] with galactose havethe capacity to form and stabilize food emulsions The bestresults were obtained in these experiments with glycatedproteins at 50∘C and pH 5 during 48 h (corresponding to thelatest steps of MR) This behavior can be attributed to the

4 Conclusions

The antioxidant activity and functional properties of sweetand acid whey products were incremented by polymerizationof their proteins by glycation with heating and addition ofglucose and ribose

Glycation of whey protein concentrates (WPC) and thehydrolyzates (WPCH) with ribose and glucose showed dif-ferent oxidation values

The higher activity was found in WPC glycosylatesproducts with ribose at pH 7 and heating at 50∘C during10ndash15 h In the same way antioxidant activity in WPCH wasincremented by prior hydrolysis to glycation in productswith 25ndash45 hydrolysis degree at pH 9 In these processeswas found an important dependence on pH conditions andcarbohydrate reactivity therefore antioxidant activity wasassociated with carbohydrate type used in glycation of wheyproteins

Functional properties of these products (solubility emul-sion and foam) were also maintained or improved by theglycation with ribose

The color in glycosylates products with glucose was moreintense than in products with ribose however antioxidantactivity was not associated with this change Formation ofhydroxyl groups could probably inhibit this action

Other researchers are required to identify the structureof the compounds in the conjugates that could inhibit thecapacities of conjugates with glucose In addition practicalapplications of these products are necessary to test theirantioxidant capacity as additive in foods

products with 45 DH at pH 9 achieved only 11 of AAEAAwhereas conjugate products by glycation of hydrolyzed withglucose showed always a lower increase in AAEAA

In terms of reactants nature it is understandable thatWCPH products were more reactive than WPC this is dueto presence of free amino acids However it was found thatmajor contributors to the radical scavenging capacity wereprimarily composed of WCPH although other authors notedthat either the intermediates or the final brown polymer canfunction as hydrogen donors and that sugar caramelizationcan also contribute to the antiradical activity [31]

The most reactive peptides are the ndashNH2groups of lysine

as well as the group ndashNH2located at the amino terminus

Therefore a higher content of residues lysine could lead toa higher degree of protein glycation The imidazole group ofhistidine the indole group of tryptophan and the guanidinogroup of arginine residues are also likely to react withreducing sugars but this possibility is lesser than aminogroups [32]

On the other hand different coloration in conjugatesproducts was also observed during the heating periodfor each carbohydrate However comparative experimentsshowed that glycosylated products with glucose developedan intense yellow color and characteristic odor after 15 h ofheating decreasing at pH 9 whereas glycosylated productswith ribose acquired a faint brownish yellow in similarperiod

Thus it is possible that ribose present as more reactivethan the glucose during the different stages of MR joining

Recent researches have shown that the antioxidant prop-erties of the proteins are enhanced by their conjugation par-ticularly with glucose Conjugate products from ovalbumin-saccharides [33] whey protein isolate (WPI) [34] and specificconjugates 120572-lactalbumin-glucose [35] showed an incre-ment in their antioxidant activity when the proteins werepolymerized with glucose more greatly These results werehighly consistent with the browning intensity of productsAuthors found that particularlyWPI-conjugates with glucoseafter 7 days of dry heating at 60∘C showed an increase in

antioxidant activity and an increase in the color It was seeninUV-vis absorption and fluorescence intensity Additionallycomparative data onWPI alone indicated that the conjugatesexhibited a better thermal stability

Similar results were found in the present research how-ever here it is shown that conjugates-ribose enhances antiox-idant action than glucose Difference of antioxidant actioncan also be associated with the presence of complex mix ofcompounds developed during glycation of whey productsGlucose could play an important role in the reductionof antioxidant activity Particularly hydroxyl groups couldinhibit this power [36 37]

Carbohydrate type and pH could explain these resultsHowever reactivity of carbohydrate in glycation process hasnot been described still in clear form According to [37] ithas been shown that reactivity decreases with the molecularweight of carbohydrate which would explain that cross-linking and aggregation protein with ribose is incrementedin comparison with the glucose and this behavior couldbe associated with the increment of antioxidant activity

of conjugate whey products-ribose Reactivity of differentsugars is also given by the availability of its carbonyl groupfor example glucose presents at least two closed forms (cyclicanomers) in which the carbonyl group has disappearedThusa correlation between the reaction rate of glycation and theproportion of the open form of each sugar is also found inthese data

Influence of pH in MR reaction during glycation processmay furthermore be observed on antioxidant action of wheyproducts at basic pH generally the polymerization rateincreases However the results cannot be described thusradically

In an early stage MR generates Amadori products(glycosylamines N-substituted by sugar-amine condensa-tion) which are present due to reactions between aminegroups of proteins and carbonyl groups within the reducingsugar while intermediate stage and advanced stage arecharacterized by formation of reactive intermediates such assugar-derived dicarbonyl compounds as 1-amino-2-deoxy-2-ketoses (eg methylglyoxal 3-deoxyosones or glyoxal)

which are produced with time resulting in the formation ofpolymerized compounds that may be interfering substancesaffecting the antioxidant activity In addition alkaline andorheat treatment of proteins may be associated with the pro-duction of several types of cross-linked amino acids such asdehydroalanine lysinoalanine and histidinoalanine whichmay affect also antioxidant activity and the nutritional valueof the treated whey proteins [37] Dehydration of sugarsoccurs by two routes Under acidic conditions are formedfurfurals and at alkaline conditions are formed the reductoneThe enolization of the C

Concerning functional properties of whey glycosylatedproducts in this work it is shown that conjugates fromWPCand WPCH had an excellent solubility however this valuereduced notably in long heating products Figure 4 showsfunctional properties of glycosylated products from wheymilk in individual experiments with ribose and glucose at50∘C and variations of pH 7 and pH 9

Emulsion property did not change with respect to valuein whey while foam property was incremented in some casesIn general a high volume of foam was obtained in WCP andhydrolyzed with heating in 10 h at pH 7

Under these data the best products found in these testswere those fromWPC-R andWPCH-R at pH 7 with heatingfor 10ndash15 hTherefore conjugates obtained could be excellentantioxidants andor functional additives in formulated foods[39]

Current studies have shown that conjugates from sodiumcaseinate [40] and 120573-lactoglobulin [41] with galactose havethe capacity to form and stabilize food emulsions The bestresults were obtained in these experiments with glycatedproteins at 50∘C and pH 5 during 48 h (corresponding to thelatest steps of MR) This behavior can be attributed to the

4 Conclusions

The antioxidant activity and functional properties of sweetand acid whey products were incremented by polymerizationof their proteins by glycation with heating and addition ofglucose and ribose

Glycation of whey protein concentrates (WPC) and thehydrolyzates (WPCH) with ribose and glucose showed dif-ferent oxidation values

The higher activity was found in WPC glycosylatesproducts with ribose at pH 7 and heating at 50∘C during10ndash15 h In the same way antioxidant activity in WPCH wasincremented by prior hydrolysis to glycation in productswith 25ndash45 hydrolysis degree at pH 9 In these processeswas found an important dependence on pH conditions andcarbohydrate reactivity therefore antioxidant activity wasassociated with carbohydrate type used in glycation of wheyproteins

Functional properties of these products (solubility emul-sion and foam) were also maintained or improved by theglycation with ribose

The color in glycosylates products with glucose was moreintense than in products with ribose however antioxidantactivity was not associated with this change Formation ofhydroxyl groups could probably inhibit this action

Other researchers are required to identify the structureof the compounds in the conjugates that could inhibit thecapacities of conjugates with glucose In addition practicalapplications of these products are necessary to test theirantioxidant capacity as additive in foods

antioxidant activity and an increase in the color It was seeninUV-vis absorption and fluorescence intensity Additionallycomparative data onWPI alone indicated that the conjugatesexhibited a better thermal stability

Similar results were found in the present research how-ever here it is shown that conjugates-ribose enhances antiox-idant action than glucose Difference of antioxidant actioncan also be associated with the presence of complex mix ofcompounds developed during glycation of whey productsGlucose could play an important role in the reductionof antioxidant activity Particularly hydroxyl groups couldinhibit this power [36 37]

Carbohydrate type and pH could explain these resultsHowever reactivity of carbohydrate in glycation process hasnot been described still in clear form According to [37] ithas been shown that reactivity decreases with the molecularweight of carbohydrate which would explain that cross-linking and aggregation protein with ribose is incrementedin comparison with the glucose and this behavior couldbe associated with the increment of antioxidant activity

of conjugate whey products-ribose Reactivity of differentsugars is also given by the availability of its carbonyl groupfor example glucose presents at least two closed forms (cyclicanomers) in which the carbonyl group has disappearedThusa correlation between the reaction rate of glycation and theproportion of the open form of each sugar is also found inthese data

Influence of pH in MR reaction during glycation processmay furthermore be observed on antioxidant action of wheyproducts at basic pH generally the polymerization rateincreases However the results cannot be described thusradically

In an early stage MR generates Amadori products(glycosylamines N-substituted by sugar-amine condensa-tion) which are present due to reactions between aminegroups of proteins and carbonyl groups within the reducingsugar while intermediate stage and advanced stage arecharacterized by formation of reactive intermediates such assugar-derived dicarbonyl compounds as 1-amino-2-deoxy-2-ketoses (eg methylglyoxal 3-deoxyosones or glyoxal)

Concerning functional properties of whey glycosylatedproducts in this work it is shown that conjugates fromWPCand WPCH had an excellent solubility however this valuereduced notably in long heating products Figure 4 showsfunctional properties of glycosylated products from wheymilk in individual experiments with ribose and glucose at50∘C and variations of pH 7 and pH 9

Emulsion property did not change with respect to valuein whey while foam property was incremented in some casesIn general a high volume of foam was obtained in WCP andhydrolyzed with heating in 10 h at pH 7

Under these data the best products found in these testswere those fromWPC-R andWPCH-R at pH 7 with heatingfor 10ndash15 hTherefore conjugates obtained could be excellentantioxidants andor functional additives in formulated foods[39]

Current studies have shown that conjugates from sodiumcaseinate [40] and 120573-lactoglobulin [41] with galactose havethe capacity to form and stabilize food emulsions The bestresults were obtained in these experiments with glycatedproteins at 50∘C and pH 5 during 48 h (corresponding to thelatest steps of MR) This behavior can be attributed to the

4 Conclusions

The antioxidant activity and functional properties of sweetand acid whey products were incremented by polymerizationof their proteins by glycation with heating and addition ofglucose and ribose

Glycation of whey protein concentrates (WPC) and thehydrolyzates (WPCH) with ribose and glucose showed dif-ferent oxidation values

The higher activity was found in WPC glycosylatesproducts with ribose at pH 7 and heating at 50∘C during10ndash15 h In the same way antioxidant activity in WPCH wasincremented by prior hydrolysis to glycation in productswith 25ndash45 hydrolysis degree at pH 9 In these processeswas found an important dependence on pH conditions andcarbohydrate reactivity therefore antioxidant activity wasassociated with carbohydrate type used in glycation of wheyproteins

Functional properties of these products (solubility emul-sion and foam) were also maintained or improved by theglycation with ribose

The color in glycosylates products with glucose was moreintense than in products with ribose however antioxidantactivity was not associated with this change Formation ofhydroxyl groups could probably inhibit this action

Other researchers are required to identify the structureof the compounds in the conjugates that could inhibit thecapacities of conjugates with glucose In addition practicalapplications of these products are necessary to test theirantioxidant capacity as additive in foods

which are produced with time resulting in the formation ofpolymerized compounds that may be interfering substancesaffecting the antioxidant activity In addition alkaline andorheat treatment of proteins may be associated with the pro-duction of several types of cross-linked amino acids such asdehydroalanine lysinoalanine and histidinoalanine whichmay affect also antioxidant activity and the nutritional valueof the treated whey proteins [37] Dehydration of sugarsoccurs by two routes Under acidic conditions are formedfurfurals and at alkaline conditions are formed the reductoneThe enolization of the C

Concerning functional properties of whey glycosylatedproducts in this work it is shown that conjugates fromWPCand WPCH had an excellent solubility however this valuereduced notably in long heating products Figure 4 showsfunctional properties of glycosylated products from wheymilk in individual experiments with ribose and glucose at50∘C and variations of pH 7 and pH 9

Emulsion property did not change with respect to valuein whey while foam property was incremented in some casesIn general a high volume of foam was obtained in WCP andhydrolyzed with heating in 10 h at pH 7

Under these data the best products found in these testswere those fromWPC-R andWPCH-R at pH 7 with heatingfor 10ndash15 hTherefore conjugates obtained could be excellentantioxidants andor functional additives in formulated foods[39]

Current studies have shown that conjugates from sodiumcaseinate [40] and 120573-lactoglobulin [41] with galactose havethe capacity to form and stabilize food emulsions The bestresults were obtained in these experiments with glycatedproteins at 50∘C and pH 5 during 48 h (corresponding to thelatest steps of MR) This behavior can be attributed to the

4 Conclusions

The antioxidant activity and functional properties of sweetand acid whey products were incremented by polymerizationof their proteins by glycation with heating and addition ofglucose and ribose

Glycation of whey protein concentrates (WPC) and thehydrolyzates (WPCH) with ribose and glucose showed dif-ferent oxidation values

The higher activity was found in WPC glycosylatesproducts with ribose at pH 7 and heating at 50∘C during10ndash15 h In the same way antioxidant activity in WPCH wasincremented by prior hydrolysis to glycation in productswith 25ndash45 hydrolysis degree at pH 9 In these processeswas found an important dependence on pH conditions andcarbohydrate reactivity therefore antioxidant activity wasassociated with carbohydrate type used in glycation of wheyproteins

Functional properties of these products (solubility emul-sion and foam) were also maintained or improved by theglycation with ribose

The color in glycosylates products with glucose was moreintense than in products with ribose however antioxidantactivity was not associated with this change Formation ofhydroxyl groups could probably inhibit this action

Other researchers are required to identify the structureof the compounds in the conjugates that could inhibit thecapacities of conjugates with glucose In addition practicalapplications of these products are necessary to test theirantioxidant capacity as additive in foods
