Resumen
Maillard-type functional complexes were produced by reacting buckwheat protein (BWP) with five different saccharides (xylose, fructose, glucose, dextran, and maltodextrin) in aqueous solutions at 60 °C, pH 6.5. Xylose was the most reactive sugar with BWP as evidenced by losses of free amines (22.4% in 12 h) and strong difference UV absorption at 310 nm. The covalent attachments of different sugars/polysaccharides to BWP were confirmed by SDS-PAGE with both protein and carbohydrate staining. Conjugation did not significantly alter the solubility of BWP, but the BWP-dextran complex had superior emulsifying activity over control BWP (P < 0.05). Emulsions prepared with the complexes were substantially more stable (P < 0.05) than emulsion prepared with control BWP in the order of: dextran > maltodextrin > xylose > glucose > fructose > control. The conjugation also improved thermal stability of BWP.
