Resumo

This study investigated the oxidative susceptibility of whey protein isolate (WPI) dispersions treated by microwave or thermal convection before freeze-drying. WPI (20 mg protein/mL) in distilled water (DW) was heated at 63 & PLUSMN; 2 degrees C for 30 min by microwave (WPI-MW) or convection heating (WPI-CH) and freeze-dried. Untreated WPI (WPI-C), WPI solubilized in DW and freeze-dried (WPI-FD), and WPI solubilized in DW, heated at 98 & PLUSMN; 2 degrees C for 2 min and freeze-dried (WPI-B) were also evaluated. Structural changes (turbidity, & zeta; potential, SDS-PAGE, and near -infrared spectroscopy (NIR)) and protein oxidation (dityrosine, protein carbonylation, and SH groups) were investigated. WPI-FD showed alterations compared to WPI-C, mainly concerning carbonyl groups. Microwave heating increased carbonyl groups and dityrosine formation compared to conventional heating. NIR spectrum indicated changes related to the formation of carbonyl groups and PCA analysis allowed us to distinguish the samples according to carbonyl group content. The results suggest that NIR may contribute to monitoring oxidative changes in proteins resulting from processing. (AU)
