Abstract
Torreya grandis wax (TGW), a new nut wax and by-product of refined Torreya grandis oil, lacks sufficient research and application. In this study, the gelling behavior in diacylglycerol (DAG) and chemical compositions of TGW were investigated. Compared with four typical natural waxes, TGW exhibited the lowest critical gelling concentration (Cg, 1 %wt) in DAG. The results performed that TGW-DAG oleogels at Cg possessed the highest G'LVR and G″, highest critical stress, good thermal stability, moderate viscosity recovery, and osc. yields stress, indicating strong gel. The microstructure and correlation analysis revealed that excellent gelling behaviors of TGW-DAG oleogels were due to the solid three-dimensional network formed by rod-like TGW crystal, and the higher hydrocarbon compound (HC) content and HC/wax ester in TGW. Formulation optimization suggested that oleogel containing 3.2 % TGW and 1.0 % diosgenin (DSG) better mimicked the characteristics of shortening in terms of hardness, adhesiveness, spreadability. The bread prepared with TGW/DSG-DAG oleogel owned uniform and dense pores, the best moisture retention capability, and soft and firm taste, demonstrating that TGW/DSG-DAG oleogel was a good shortening substitute. Therefore, this study provides the systematically fundamental knowledge of TGW and develops DSG-TGW-DAG oleogels as promising shortening substitutions.

Potential application of bee products in food industry: An exploratory review. Heliyon 2024; 10:e24056. [PMID: 38268589 PMCID: PMC10806293 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e24056] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/03/2023] [Revised: 12/08/2023] [Accepted: 01/03/2024] [Indexed: 01/26/2024] Open
Abstract
Over the past eight years, bee products such as wax, honey, propolis, and pollen have generated intense curiosity about their potential food uses; to explore these possibilities, this review examines the nutritional benefits and notable characteristics of each product related to the food industry. While all offer distinct advantages, there are challenges to overcome, including the risk of honey contamination. Indeed, honey has excellent potential as a healthier alternative to sugar, while propolis's remarkable antibacterial and antioxidant properties can be enhanced through microencapsulation. Pollen is a versatile food with multiple applications in various products. In addition, the addition of beeswax to oleogels and its use as a coating demonstrate significant improvements in the quality and preservation of environmentally sustainable foods over time. This study demonstrates that bee products and apitherapy are essential for sustainable future food and innovative medical treatments.
