Аннотация (русский):
The present work includes results on enrichment of pasta, a mass-consumption product, with protein. Meat products, legume (Leguminosae L.) flour and plant protein isolates were used as protein-containing additives. The content of protein and essential amino acids in the additives makes them promising for improving the biological value of pasta. We studied effects of the additives on raw gluten and wheat flour starch properties, pasta dough rheo- logical characteristics, and finished product quality. As a result, the following optimal amounts of the additives were established: 15% by weight of flour for meat, 10% by weight of the mixture for pea and lentil flour as well as plant isolates, and 7.5% by weight of the mixture for soy flour. The enriching components added in pasta dough were found to have a positive effect on pasta quality. These increased protein content by 1.59–8.19%, biological value by 6–16%, utility coefficient of amino acid composition by 0.2–0.26, protein digestibility by pepsin by 11–24%, and daily pro- tein intake level by 31.4–12.5%.

Pasta is a mass-consumption product in Russia: more than 94% of the population uses it in their diets.

According to the current State Standard for pasta, high-grade and first-grade wheat flour can be used as basic raw material in the bread making industry. Protein content in pasta made from such flour is insignificant [1] and able to meet, on average, only 10.2–16.9% of daily protein requirement for adults [2]. However, the required protein level in a human body is a necessary condition for other nutrients to exert their biological functions. Moreover, it is not protein itself that is of significance but amino acids released in the gastrointestinal tract as a result of hydrolysis; it is amino acids that characterise the biological value of proteins.

In this research, we studied basic nutrients contents in pasta produced from bread flour that was obtained by milling common wheat grains grown in the central re- gion of Russia. Thus, a maximum amount of protein did

 

not exceed 11.1%, and scores of five out of eight essential

amino acids were less than 90% [3].

Alternative raw materials as well as additives with higher content of protein and amino acids than that in wheat flour can be an effective way to increase the bio- logical value of pasta. Those can be buckwheat proces- sing products [4], egg products, including dry egg white [5, 6, 7], rye protein concentrate [8], mushroom powder [9], faba beans (Vicia faba L.) [10], soy protein concen- trate [11], corn gluten [12], and even beef emulsion [13]. In some cases wheat flour is replaced with lupin (Lupi- nus L.) [12], defatted soy [9], kidney beans (Phasedus vulgaris L.) [12], whole grain amaranth, banana, and rice flours [12, 14, 15], etc.

As known, the human body assimilates proteins and carbohydrates effectively if their ratio is 1.4:1.45. In the case of pasta, the ratio of proteins to carbohydrates is 1:7. We took this fact into consideration when developing a new type of pasta with increased biological value and

when determining optimal amounts of protein-contai- ning additives.

Since effectiveness of the latter directly depends on specific concentration of proteins, it is this parameter that was a key factor that we considered in choosing the additives. The additives would tend to reduce the content of gluten proteins which take part in product structure formation. Therefore, the more protein the additives con- tain, the lower amount of those is needed to provide pas- ta with this critical nutrient and ensure a high quality of the finished product.

The aim of this project was scientific and practical justification for the using of protein-containing additives of plant and animal origin to increase the biological va- lue of pasta while maintaining/improving quality cha- racteristics of the additives.

In this research we set the following tasks: to study effects of protein-containing additives on properties of raw gluten and wheat flour starch as texturizing agents, as well as their effects on rheological properties of pasta dough and quality characteristics of pasta, primarily on their organoleptic and cooking properties; to study effects of the enriching components added into pasta dough on protein content in pasta, biological value and amino acid balance of protein, utility coefficient of amino acid com- position, protein digestibility by the proteolytic enzyme pepsin, and on daily protein intake level.

 

STUDY OBJECTS AND METHODS

Subjects of the research were wheat flour for bread making State Standard 52189-2003* (Table 1) as well as samples of pasta dough and finished pasta. We used the following enriching ingredients: meat products, name- ly chicken breasts and cooled B-grade veal meat (in amounts of 10% and 15% by weight of flour); legume flours, namely deodorized, low-fat soy flour (5%, 7.5% and 10% by weight of the mixture), pea and lentil flours (5% and 10% by weight of the mixture) in accordance with regulatory documents; and isolates of soy, pea, and corn proteins (in amounts of 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% by weight of the mixture). The isolates were produced by

 

of TU 9189-008-27291178-2005**. All the components contained protein with balanced amino acid composition (Table 2).

A traditional technology was used to produce high-protein pasta. The technology included the following steps: raw materials preparation, basic raw and enriching additives weighing-out, pasta dough kneading and pres- sing, pasta formation, cutting, pre-drying, putting on dry- ing surfaces, final drying, stabilizing, and cooling. The additives were mixed with legume flours and plant pro- tein isolates. In the case of meat additives, minced meat of at most 325 µm in size with formulation water quan- tity was introduced into pasta dough. To determine opti- mal amounts of the additives, we studied their effects on wheat gluten and starch characteristics, pasta dough rheo- logical properties, and finished product quality.

To analyse the properties of raw wheat gluten, starch, and pasta dough, we applied ordinary techniques. The following devices were also used: a drying cabinet (Mogilev-Podolskiy Priborostroitel, Ukraine), a lux- meter ‘Kvarts-21M’ (Russia), a ST-1 texture analyser (mode 2 and 3) (OOO NPP Radius, Russia), and Ami- lotest’ (mode 2) (OOO NPP Radius, Russia).

The rheological properties of pasta dough were de- termined by means of a device similar to a capillary viscometer, with a capillary length of 30 mm and a dia- meter of 3 mm.

Protein mass fraction in the additives and the fini- shed pasta were determined by Nessler method [16] and Lowry method [17] (calibration curves were  constru- cted using serum albumin). The amino acid composition of protein we determined by a liquid chromatography method with some modifications (Spackman method) using an amino acid analyser Chromaspek (USA). Es- sential amino acid scores (AAS), %, and coefficients of distinction amino acid scores (CDAAS), i.e. average va- lues of essential amino acid scores redundancy in com- parison to the lowest score value of an essential amino acid, were calculated as follows:

AAS =                   content of amino acid in 1 g of test protein                           · 100, (1)

content of the same amino acid in 1 g of reference protein

 

CDAAS =   i=1                                                           ,              (2)

where N is essential amino acids content, and AAS is amino acid score of the i-th amino acid, %.

To calculate biological value (BV), %, which is an indicator of protein quality, the following equation was used:

BV = 100CDAAS.                              (3)

We used the amino acid scoring system recomme- nded by FAO/WHO Committee to compare content of each individual amino acid with that of the same ami- no acid in the ideal protein (Table 3). Unsettleable pro- teolytic products were an indicator of digestibility of the pasta proteins, with use of trichloroacetic acid (TCA) and Folin’s reagent. The statistical analysis of the results

 

was carried out by means of MS Excel and Statistica 6.0 programmes.

 

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

We studied effects of the protein-containing additives on the quality characteristics of the pasta  developed, such as sensory and cooking properties, properties of raw gluten and starch as basic texturizing agents, as well as rheological characteristics of the pasta dough (Tables 4 and 5, Fig. 1) [3]. Three control samples of wheat flour (Table 1) were used for the experiments.

According to the results obtained, the following op- timal amounts of the additives were established: 15% by weight of flour for the meat additives, 7.5% by weight of the mixture for soy flour, 10% by weight of the mix- ture for pea and lentil flours, as well as for the protein isolates of corn, pea, and soy. It was found that these amounts of the enriching components:

  • improved consumption characteristics;

el

 
improved wheat gluten elasticity (N GDI) by 35; 2–10; and 12.5–22.5 units for meat additives, legume flours, and plant protein isolates respectively;

  • decreased dry matters passed into water, a key factor of cooking properties of pasta, by 1.93–2.29% for meat additives and by 1.6–2.22% for legume flours (in the samples with plant protein isolates the value did not ex- ceed 0.4%).

It should be noted that one of causes of improved raw gluten elasticity and pasta dough rheological properties is interaction between protein substances of the additives and gluten proteins.

studied their influence on the solubility of gluten in a po- lar solvent. In other words, we determined an amount of gluten protein which passed into the solvent from gluten, as the less proteins interact with each other, the more pro- teins pass into the solvent. 6M urea solution was used as a solvent since, as Medvedev found in 2004, in this case the type and amount of a protein-containing additive, rather than properties of gluten itself, had an effect on its solubility. An amount of protein passed into the polar solvent was determined by Lowry method. A graduation curve was constructed on serum albumin.

Optimal amounts of protein-containing additives in the pasta dough were found to reduce the passage of pro- teins from gluten into 6M urea solution. This fact proved the presence of strong bonds between molecules or ag- gregates of gluten proteins and the change in their struc- tures. Moreover, the moving of dough inside an extruder barrel causes plastic deformation of particles and their sticking. As a result, interaction forces between proteins of gluten and those of the additives undergo increase (Fig. 2), which reduces the protein solubility.

As one can see from Table 5, the addition of plant isolates into dough impair the cooking properties of pas- ta, namely contribute to passage of dry substances into cooking water. Therefore, we studied qualitative charac- teristics of initial raw materials, above all mass fraction of raw wheat gluten, and their effects on the passage of dry substances into water during cooking. For that, three samples of wheat flour with different raw gluten content were used. According to the results of the experiment, the lower the raw gluten content is in flour, the greater amounts of dry matters pass into the cooking water.

The statistical analysis of the results showed a de- pendence of raw wheat gluten content and plant isolates amounts on the content of dry substances passing into water during the cooking process:

Pd.m. = y = 8,3(0.83 + 0.0133х1 )(1.53 − 0.02х2), (5)

where y is an amount of dry substances passed into the

 

samples (except for corn protein isolate).

The utility coefficient of amino acid composition (whose theoretical value was 1) was 0.2–0.26 units higher in the experimental samples than that in the con- trol samples.

100 g of the enriched pasta was able to meet 31.4–12.5% of daily protein requirement. That value for the control samples was 18–11%.

The protein digestibility of the enriched cooked pasta by pepsin was, on average, 11–24% higher than that of the control samples. One of the causes is balanced amino acid composition: proteins with a high biological value are digested and assimilated well. Another cause is an increased mass fractions of water-soluble and salt-so- luble proteins in the pasta with protein-containing addi- tives: albumins and globulins of both animal and plant origin are readily broken down by pepsin.

Since combined protein mixtures are considered to be quite effective in the development of a biologically valua- ble product, we calculated (by means of Microsoft Excel) a formulation of the pasta with mixtures of plant protein isolates in the amount of 10%. Thus, the following ra- tios of wheat flour to soy, pea, and corn isolates ensuring a high biological value of the finished pasta were estab- lished: 90:0:5:5 (BV = 73%), 90:3:3:4 (BV = 72%), 90:4:2:4

(BV = 72%), and 90:7:0:3 (BV = 72.5%). Furthermore, pro- tein content in the pasta was 19.1–19.4%, essential amino acids content was, on average, 33.5% by total amino acids, and the utility coefficient was 0.69–0.70 units.

The experiments established that the combined pro- tein mixtures enhanced the mechanical strength of dry pasta by 35.7–57.1% and the weight ratio of dry pasta to cooked pasta by 1.7–3.1%. Moreover, the value of dry matters passed into cooking water was virtually equal to that of the control sample. Thus, the combined protein mixtures allowed us to make qualitative pasta with hi- gher biological value.

It should be noted that the duration of the drying pro- cess reduced for all samples with the protein-containing

Table 6 gives the main quality characteristics of the

protein in the enriched pasta. Analysis of the obtained data revealed:

The protein-containing additives, namely chicken and veal meats, pea, soy, and lentil flours, as well as corn, pea, and soy protein isolates, significantly increased pro- tein content in the pasta – by 2.81, 3.08, 2.48, 1.59, 1.93,

7.49, 7.10, and 8.19% respectively.

Essential amino acids content in total amino acids was 29% for the samples with chicken and veal; 30, 29.2, and 31.3% for the samples with legume flours; and 35%, on average, for pasta with plant proteins isolates. It is a known fact that the amount of essential amino acids, including cysteine and tyrosine, should be 36% of total amino acid content for adults. The content of essential amino acids in the experimental samples was 4.1, 5.1, 4.3, 6.4, and 10.1% higher than in the control samples. Moreover, the content and scores of each essential amino acids, with some exceptions, had higher values than the control samples.

The biological value of protein in the samples with the additives was 6–16% higher than that in the control

 

They bind water mainly osmotically, and the binding is rather weak, so removing absorbent-bound water great- ly reduces. The drying time of the pasta with soy flour, however, increased by 10 min compared to the control sample. This is due to the fact that soy contains lipids and a greater amount of dietary fibre (2.9 g per 100 g) forming strong bonds with water, the removal of which took longer than in the control sample [3].

As an example, Fig. 3 gives drying curves for semi-finished pasta (the control sample and the sample with pea protein isolate).

Statistical analysis of the experimental data resulted in a third-order equation describing the dependence of the drying time of the semi-finished pasta with the pro- tein-containing additives on the protein content in it:

for the first stage of drying (at 55°C, until the moisture

of 20%)

y = 0.012x3 0.5587x2 + 8.4295x38,452, and

for the second stage (at 45°C, to the final moisture)

y = 0.0041x3 0.1961x2 + 3.0197x10.797,

where y is drying duration, min; and x is protein content in pasta, %.

reflecting the quality and nutritional value of the pasta with the protein additives, was 70% higher than that of the control sample (1.7 vs. 1.0).

 

CONCLUSION

In summary, the protein-containing components ad- ded into the pasta dough contribute to high quality for- mation of the finished product as well as the quality and quantity of protein substances in pasta made from bread flour. It should be noted that meat additives, pea and lentil flours, as well as soy isolate were the most effective to im- prove the biological value of the pasta. This characteristic in the developed pasta increased by 6–16% compared to the control samples. Additionally, the amino acid balance also improved. Consequently, the use of protein-rich pasta in the human diet will improve its nutritional value.

All new types of pasta enriched with protein-con- taining additives are supported by technical specifi- cations and technological instructions. Pasta dough formulations are protected by the Patent of the Russian Federation.
