    Immature rice grain is one of the by-products of paddy milling process. Due to being whole grain, immature rice grains comprise the fat-rich bran layer which bring along high nutritional value as well as susceptibility to rancidity. Therefore, they are generally used as feed rather than food. In this study, the potential of utilizing immature rice grain as a food ingredient was investigated. For this purpose, raw (unprocessed) and infrared (IR) stabilized immature rice grain flours (IRGF) were extruded at different exit-die temperatures (130 degrees C and 150 degrees C) and feed moisture contents (16%, 18%, 20%) and the effects of these parameters on chemical composition (moisture, crude fat, protein, ash, soluble and insoluble dietary fiber and phytic acid contents), physicochemical properties (solubility, water binding capacity, expansion index and bulk density), thiamine, riboflavin and tocopherol contents, textural and sensorial properties of the extrudates were investigated. Either thiamine or tocopherol contents of the extrudates made of unprocessed IRGF were higher than that of the extrudates made of IR stabilized IRGF (p < 0.05). Additionally, higher extrusion temperature and lower feed moisture content resulted in further loss in both vitamins. On the other side, riboflavins showed a relatively heat-stable behavior. Rancid flavor and bitter taste scores of the extrudates which were made of unprocessed IRGF were significantly higher than their counterparts made of IR stabilized IRGF (p < 0.05). Toothpack was the most dominant sensory attribute in all extrudates.

    Sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia L.) protein isolate as a new source of alternative plant-based protein: cytotoxicity, immunoreactivity, nutritional and functional properties
    (Springer, 2025) Korkmaz, Fatma; Gungor, Sevde Nur; Gulec, Sukru; Sakarya, Fatma Betul; Andac, Ali Emre; Yilmaz Tuncel, Nese; Ozkan, Gulay
    The objective of this research was to develop an alternative plant-based protein isolate using sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia L.) seeds. The extraction process was optimized using response surface methodology (RSM) based on the Box-Behnken Design, which examined the effects of key parameters: solvent/solid ratio (10-50 mL/g), pH (8-11), temperature (20-50 degrees C), and extraction time (30-120 min), aiming to maximize protein yield. The optimal extraction conditions identified were a solvent/solid ratio of 49.96 mL/g, pH of 10.99, temperature of 20 degrees C, and a duration of 38.55 min, achieving a protein yield of 56.36%. Additionally, the amino acid composition, cytotoxicity, immunoreactivity, and functional properties of the sainfoin seed protein isolate (SPI) were evaluated. SPI exhibited a high crude protein content of 91.44%, with arginine being the most abundant amino acid at 158.20 mg/g. The protein isolate comprised a remarkable value of 50.26% essential amino acids. Additionally, SPI demonstrated desirable functional properties, including solubility of 53.95% at neutral pH, water holding capacity of 2.36 g/g, and oil binding capacity of 4.68 g/g. Its emulsifying performance was notable, with emulsion activity and stability values of 66.67% and 77.50%, respectively. Moreover, in vitro cell culture studies demonstrated that sainfoin seed protein exhibited no adverse effects on cellular toxicity or immunoreactivity. This study highlights the potential of SPI as a novel, high-quality plant protein source with promising nutritional and functional properties and demonstrates its potential as a functional ingredient in the formulation of plant-based foods, meat analogs, and dietary supplements.
