Abstract
The processing characteristics of yogurt are closely related to the composition and arrangement of exopolysaccharides (EPS) in lactic acid bacteria (LAB). To fully understand and develop the functional properties of EPS and to study the effect of EPS molecular weight on yogurt and its mechanism, the physicochemical properties of high molecular weight EPS-LH43, medium molecular weight EPS-LH13, and low molecular weight EPS-LH23, as well as the gel properties and protein conformation of yogurt, were determined and analyzed in this experiment. The results indicate that EPS-LH43 and EPS-LH13 are both composed of mannose, rhamnose, galacturonic acid, glucose, and galactose. EPS-LH23 is composed of mannose, galacturonic acid, glucose, and galactose. Their Number-average Molecular Weight is 5.21 × 106 Da, 2.39 × 106 Da and 3.76 × 105 Da, respectively. In addition, all three types of EPS have good thermal stability and can improve the stability of casein. In addition, the analysis of the texture, particle size, potential, water holding capacity, rheology, low field nuclear magnetic resonance, microstructure, and flavor characteristics of yogurt confirmed the relationship between the molecular weight of LAB EPS and the gel properties of yogurt. Fluorescence spectrophotometer and circular dichroism analysis indicate that the different molecular weights of LAB EPS have different effects on protein structure, which is an intrinsic factor leading to significant differences in the gel properties of the three types of fermented milk. These findings provide new references for enhancing the understanding of the structure-activity relationship of EPS and indicate that EPS-LH43 can be used to improve the gel properties of dairy products.

Abstract
The development of bio-based materials remains one of the most important alternatives to plastic materials. Although research in this field is growing, reporting various materials and methodologies, it is still necessary to increase exploration. The aim of this work was to expand and complement previous research on the preparation and characterization of high- and low-methoxyl pectin films obtained by casting, with the addition of commercial and recovered sunflower waxes. The results showed that the addition of sunflower waxes to the pectin matrix generated some discontinuity in the aggregate, increasing the thickness and roughness of the film. However, due to their hydrophobic nature, the waxes contributed to lower vapor transmission rate values of the films. On the other hand, the low-methoxyl pectin films had a more crystalline structure, which could help to diminish water vapor permeability values, mechanical resistance and rigidity, and improve their elongation. Regarding chemical characteristics, most of the raw materials' chemical groups were found in the resulting films, and the presence of C-H bending due to pectin gelation was observed. Finally, the compatibility and contribution of pectin and sunflower waxes to the production of the films were demonstrated, as well as the possibility of using materials from industrial waste in food packaging applications.

Abstract
In this study, pectin was extracted from the pistachio hull using two methods: conventional extraction and ultrasound-assisted extraction. Water and citric acid solution were tested separately as extraction solvents in both conventional and ultrasound methods. The highest yield (32.3 ± 1.44%) was obtained using a citric acid solution in the conventional extraction method. The pectin extracted with this method had 38.94 g acid per 100 g dry pectin extract. The galacturonic acid and ash contents were 65.81 ± 1.51 and 1.57 ± 0.03%, respectively. The pistachio hull pectin was under the low methoxy pectin group with a 19.29 ± 0.41% degree of esterification. The emulsifying property of the pectin extracted was investigated in an oil-in-water emulsion system at six different pectin concentrations (2, 4, 5, 6, 8, and 10% w/w) and at a fixed oil ratio (20% w/w). Emulsion performance was investigated in terms of emulsion stability, microstructural characteristics, droplet size, and rheological properties. The most stable emulsion was obtained at a 6% pectin concentration. The emulsifying activity index, emulsion stability index, droplet size, consistency index, and flow behavior index were 172.85 ± 0.59 m2/g, 158.28 ± 3.41 min, 6.08 ± 0.04 µm, 0.72 ± 0.001 Pa·sn, and 0.752 ± 0.005 at this concentration, respectively.

Abstract
The study investigated the preparation of set yoghurts by adding three common commercial polysaccharide stabilizers, namely sodium alginate (SA), gellan gum (GG), and konjac gum (KGM), in milk fermentation to evaluate their effects on the texture, rheology, and microstructure of set yoghurts. The physicochemical properties, water-holding capacity (WHC), texture, low-field nuclear magnetic resonance (LF-NMR), rheology, and microstructure of set yoghurts added with different kinds and quantities of polysaccharides were compared and analyzed. The results showed that the set yoghurts added with anionic polysaccharide GG had more obvious effects on improving WHC, firmness, and rheological properties compared with the set yoghurt added with KGM and SA. The firmness of set yoghurts with 0.02% (w/v) GG increased from 1.17 N to 1.32 N, which significantly improved the gel structure. The transverse relaxation time (T2) of set yoghurts added with GG was the closest to that of the control. Compared with the set yoghurts added with 0.02% SA and KGM, the free water area (A23) of the one added with 0.02% GG decreased most significantly. Moreover, all samples showed shear-thinning behavior, and the apparent elastic and viscous modulus (G', G″) increased with the increase of GG concentration. The G' and G″ of set yoghurts with 0.005% SA and KGM were higher than those in the control, decreased when adding 0.010%, and then increased with the increase of SA and KGM. Additionally, the microscopic observation demonstrated that the addition of GG in set yoghurts significantly promoted the formation of larger protein clusters and showed a tighter and more uniform protein network comparing with the other two polysaccharides (SA, KGM).

Abstract
In order to study the mechanism of high viscosity of Sayram ketteki yoghurt, the growth, acidification properties, in situ exopolysaccharides (EPS) production of Lactobacillus helveticus MB2-1 in milk medium were investigated. The microstructure of the yoghurt was analyzed. The characteristics of in situ EPS produced by this strain in yoghurt were studied by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) analysis. The amount of in situ EPS produced could be up to 689.47 mg/L. The micrographs of Sayram ketteki yoghurt demonstrated that the in situ EPS secreted by ropy L. helveticus MB2-1 were closely connected with proteins, effectively filling the three-dimensional network structure of casein clusters, thereby resulting in high viscosity of yoghurt. Besides, the molecular weight of in situ EPS was 9.34 × 104 Da, and the in situ EPS was determined to be a new heteropolysaccharide, containing fucose, which made it unique. Moreover, the set yoghurts added with in situ EPS were demonstrated fine effects on the texture improvement. These results illustrated that L. helveticus MB2-1 could be set as a good starter and the in situ EPS could be considered as a probiotic stabilizer substitute for fermented dairy products.

Abstract
Most current approaches applied for the essential identification of adulteration in edible vegetable oils are of limited practical benefit because they require long analysis times, professional training, and costly instrumentation. The present work addresses this issue by developing a novel simple, accurate, and rapid identification approach based on the magnetic resonance relaxation fingerprints obtained from low-field nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy measurements of edible vegetable oils. The relaxation fingerprints obtained for six types of edible vegetable oil, including flaxseed oil, olive oil, soybean oil, corn oil, peanut oil, and sunflower oil, are demonstrated to have sufficiently unique characteristics to enable the identification of the individual types of oil in a sample. By using principal component analysis, three characteristic regions in the fingerprints were screened out to create a novel three-dimensional characteristic coordination system for oil discrimination and adulteration identification. Univariate analysis and partial least squares regression were used to successfully quantify the oil adulteration in adulterated binary oil samples, indicating the great potential of the present approach on both identification and quantification of edible oil adulteration.

Effect of Structurally Different Pectin on Dough Rheology, Structure, Pasting and Water Distribution Properties of Partially Meat-Based Sugar Snap Cookies. Foods 2021; 10:foods10112692.

Abstract
Pectin has been widely used as a hydrocolloid in foods, but its effectiveness based on hydrodynamics radius (Rh), average side chain length (ACL) and degree of esterification (DE) has been less studied. This study investigated the effect of 4 types of pectin (with different molecular weight and structures) at a level of 1.5% w/w of wheat flour on functional, structural and water binding properties of sugar snap cookies partially substituted with fish meat. The results showed that pectin (CU-201 and CU-601) with higher ACL and Rh controlled excessive expansion, while the improved rheology of dough in terms of behavior as viscous matrix compared to control and other pectin. Texture was found to be highly dependent on Rh and ACL compared to DE of pectin. The pasting properties, especially peak viscosity and final viscosity, were significantly (p < 0.05) increased with increasing DE, as well as ACL, by entangling and increasing the interaction between starch and pectin. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis exhibited that control sample showed wide voids and more intercellular spaces, while samples prepared with CU-601, CU-201, and CUL displayed compact structure, which was also evidenced by controlled expansion and improved hardness of the cookies. Low field nuclear magnetic resonance (LF-NMR) analysis showed that T21 relaxation time and amplitude were found to be shorter for CU-601 and CU-201 treatments, signifying the high amount of tightly bound water compared to control. The findings endorse the feasibility of adding CU-601, and CU-201 as an efficient hydrocolloid for the improved structural and functional properties of cookies.

Abstract
Olive oils and, in particular, extra-virgin olive oils (EVOOs) are one of the most frauded food. Among the different adulterations of EVOOs, the mixture of high-quality olive oils with vegetable oils is one of the most common in the market. The need for fast and cheap techniques able to detect extra-virgin olive oil adulterations was the main motivation for the present research work based on 1H NMR relaxation and diffusion measurements. In particular, the 1H NMR relaxation times, T1 and T2, measured at 2 and 100 MHz on about 60 EVOO samples produced in Italy are compared with those measured on four different vegetable oils, produced from macadamia nuts, linseeds, sunflower seeds, and soybeans. Self-diffusion coefficients on this set of olive oils and vegetable oil samples were measured by means of the 1H NMR diffusion ordered spectroscopy (DOSY) technique, showing that, except for the macadamia oil, other vegetable oils are characterized by an average diffusion coefficient sensibly different from extra-virgin olive oils. Preliminary tests based on both NMR relaxation and diffusometry methods indicate that eventual adulterations of EVOO with linseed oil and macadamia oil are the easiest and the most difficult frauds to be detected, respectively.
