Description

Low-ester pectin with high gelation degree and preparation and application thereof in gel
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of pectin preparation, and particularly relates to a high-gelation low-ester pectin, a preparation method thereof and application thereof in sugarless gel and sugar alcohol gel.
Background
Pectin is a structurally complex anionic polysaccharide that is widely found in the intercellular layer and primary walls of higher plant cell walls. Pectin consists essentially of three domains, including HG, RG-I, RG-II. Pectin is classified into high-ester pectin (DE. Gtoreq.50%) and low-ester pectin (DE < 50%) based on the number of ester groups on HG main chain.
Pectin is widely used as a food additive in the food fields of jam, jelly, candy and the like. In addition, pectin can be used as bioactive substances in the field of pharmacy by reducing blood cholesterol, inhibiting atherosclerosis, etc.
The gel ability of pectin is of great significance to the structure adjustment and sensory perception of pectin-added foods such as jams, jellies and candies. Gel strength is therefore a great important criterion for measuring pectin quality. Different types of pectins tend to have different gel behaviour and mechanisms. High ester pectin is required to form a gel under a relatively severe environment (high acid and high sugar) by virtue of hydrophobic forces and hydrogen bonds between methoxy groups in the pectin chain. The low-ester pectin provides more binding sites for calcium ions due to the increase of carboxyl content in the pectin chain, and is more beneficial to forming a stable eggshell structure. Even at a broad acidity range, even under at least sugar or sugarless conditions, low ester pectin forms a gel with calcium alone. And the lower the esterification degree of the low-ester pectin is, the more favorable the formation of a gel permeation network structure is. Therefore, compared with high-ester pectin, the low-ester pectin has greater advantages in the application aspect of gel performance, and accords with the concept of healthy diet of consumers.
Pectin obtained by primary extraction of citrus peel residues is mostly high-ester pectin through detection. To expand its application, high ester pectins are usually subjected to transesterification by chemical and biological methods. The chemical method comprises acid treatment and alkali treatment, wherein the alkali treatment has the most remarkable effect of reducing the ester, but the molecular weight of pectin is greatly reduced due to the beta-elimination reaction in the process of reducing the ester, and the pectin structure is destroyed so as not to form gel or the formed gel degree is lower. Biological methods usually use biocatalysts to assist in reducing the ester by using the methylester, however, in the mass industrialized production, the enzyme consumption greatly increases the production cost, so that the application of the enzyme method in the industry is limited. However, these methods of reducing esters focus on the reduction of the degree of esterification alone, and have low interest in the application value of pectin after its ester reduction.
The application value of low-ester pectin is closely related to the gel property. The low-ester pectins on the market are generally defined only in terms of the degree of esterification, and their most important application property, gel properties, is often ignored. The gel properties of low-ester pectins are important in different fields of application. The low-ester pectin with good application value has the gelatinization degree of over 110 on the basis of meeting the esterification degree of less than 50 percent. In other words, the gel of the low-ester pectin does not reach a certain gelatinization degree or does not have the gelatinization property, and the application value of the gel is greatly reduced. For example, the dairy industry mainly utilizes the gel properties of low-ester pectins to apply low-ester pectins in stirred yogurt, and is consumed in large quantities. Therefore, the research of low-ester pectin cannot only pay attention to the esterification degree range, and the gel performance is an important standard for measuring the industrial application of the low-ester pectin.
The invention is based on the low-ester pectin with the same esterification degree category, ensures that the pectin has good gel performance, and reaches the product application standard.

Hardness testing:
measured using a cylindrical probe having a diameter of 0.5 inches. The gel was compressed at a constant speed of 1.0mm/s until 50% of the initial height was reached.
Water retention test:
the gel was allowed to stand at 4℃for 24 hours and then centrifuged at 8000rpm for 10 minutes using a centrifuge. The water thrown out was sucked up with filter paper, and the mass of the gel before centrifugation was recorded as M 1 After centrifugation the mass of the gel was recorded as M 2 . The water holding capacity of the gel is calculated according to the following formula: water holding ratio=m 2 /M 1 ×100%。
The hardness and water holding ratios of examples 4 to 7 and comparative examples 4 to 6 are shown in Table 2.
TABLE 2 hardness and Water holdup of examples 4-7 and comparative examples 4-6
As can be seen from Table 2, examples 5-7 have higher hardness and higher water retention than example 4, indicating that the addition of a certain amount of erythritol favors gel formation. The hardness and water holding ratio of example 6 were higher than those of examples 5 and 7, indicating that the optimum range of the erythritol addition amount was found, and when the addition amount exceeded the optimum amount, the gel began to weaken and the network structure was unstable. Examples 5-7 the low ester pectin extracted according to the present invention resulted in a higher hardness and a higher water retention of the sugar alcohol gel formed from the low ester pectin compared to comparative examples 4-6 at the same erythritol addition level.
The above examples are preferred embodiments of the present invention, but the embodiments of the present invention are not limited to the above examples, and any other changes, modifications, substitutions, combinations, and simplifications made without departing from the spirit of the present invention are to be considered as equivalent substitutions, and are included in the scope of the present invention.
