Description
Summary:Sensory and physicochemical characteristics of soy meal obtained after secondary extraction of soy flakes using hexane containing 3 or 5% acetic acid were compared with those of hexane-extracted meal. Sensory evaluation study using the threshold dilution technique showed a 55-63% reduction of beany flavor in treated meals. Hexane containing 5% acetic acid treatment showed total inactivation of lipoxygenase (L-1 and L-2 + L-3), but no effect on trypsin inhibitor activity. Compared to hexane-extracted meal, the nitrogen solubility index of hexane containing 3 and 5% acetic acid extracted meal showed reductions of 19 and 39%, respectively. In vitro digestibility increased in treated sample (81.7%) as compared to that of hexane-extracted meal (76.7%). Gel filtration, polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and fluorescence emission spectrum indicated the dissociation of proteins into lower molecular weight protein fractions in treated meals; the higher the concentration of acetic acid in hexane, the greater was the extent of dissociation
