Background. Pasta is considered as an effective carrier of prohealth ingredients in food fortification. The aim of this study was to examine the changes of antioxidant potential of wheat pasta affected by fortification with powdered parsley leaves. A special attention was paid to effectiveness of fortification in the light of protein- phenolic interactions. Material and methods. To improve antioxidant activity of pasta, part of wheat flour was replaced with powdered parsley leaves from 1% to 4% (w/w). The total phenolics content was determined with Folin- -Ciocalteau reagent. Antioxidant capacity was evaluated using in vitro assays - abilities to scavenge free radicals (ABTS) and to reduce iron (III) (FRAP). Predicted phenolic contents and antioxidant activity were calculated. To determine the protein-phenolics interactions SE-HPLC and SDS-PAGE techniques were used. Results. Fortification of pasta had a positive effect on its phenolic contents and antioxidant properties. The highest phenolics level and antioxidant activity of pasta were obtained by supplementation with 4% of parsley leaves. However, in most cases experimental values were significantly lower than those predicted. The protein profiles obtained after SDS-PAGE differed significantly among control and enriched pasta. Furthermore, the addition of parsley leaves to pasta resulted in increase of peaks areas obtained by SE-HPLC. Results indicate the occurrence of the protein-phenolics interactions in fortified pasta. Conclusion. Overall, the effectiveness of fortification and consequently biological effect is limited by many factors including interactions between phenolics and pasta proteins. In the light of this results the study of potential interaction of bioactive supplements with food matrix should be taken into account during designing new functional food products.
Probiotics and prebiotics play an important role in human and animal nutrition. Those research studies were performed to evaluate the potential of using legume sprouts as carriers for probiotic strain of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG. They determined the effect of legume species, temperature of sprouting, and inoculation methods of seeds or growing sprouts on the survival and/or growth of probiotics. It was found that the count of bacteria in sprouts depended on the germination temperature, inoculation methods as well as on the species of legume used as a carrier. The beans examined (Adzuki and Mung) germinated effectively at a temperature between 25 ÷ 35 ºC. And the lentil sprouted most effectively at 25 ºC. In the case of soy-bean and lentil, the temperature of 35 ºC caused the germination efficiency to decrease. The growth of Lb. rhamnosus GG was reported only in the case of the lentil and soy-bean sprouts obtained from the seeds imbibed in an inoculum and germinated at 25 ºC. The count of probiotic bacteria was 3.1×10⁶ and 7.18×10⁶ CFU per grams of fresh mass, respectively. The sprouts obtained from the bean seeds analyzed did not provide any conditions for probiotic bacteria to survive and grow. The best carrier for the probiotic bacteria studied were the soy-bean sprouts; in their case, after inoculation of seeds and using a suspension of probiotic bacteria, the sprouts obtained at 25 ºC had the best quality parameters.
