ABSTRACT
This study investigated the effect of inulin with different polymerization degrees (DP), including L-inulin (DP 2-6), M-inulin (DP 10-23) and H-inulin (DP 23-46), on the structural and gelation properties of potato protein isolate (PPI). Results revealed that textural properties (hardness, cohesiveness, springiness and chewiness) and water-holding capacity (WHC) of PPI-inulin composite gels were positively correlated with the inulin DP and addition content at 0-1.5% (w/v), but deteriorated at 2% due to phase separation. The addition of 1.5% H-inulin showed the most significant increment effects on the WHC (18.65%) and hardness (2.84 N) of PPI gel. Furthermore, M-/H-inulin were more effective in increasing the whiteness and surface hydrophobicity, as well as in strengthening hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions than L-inulin. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis and microstructural observation indicated that inulin with higher DP promoted more generation of ß-sheet structures, and leading to the formation of stronger and finer network structures.
