Heat processing of soybeans alters its structural behavior, solubility, and in turn the functional properties. Heat-processed soy flour was prepared by autoclaving the defatted soy flour at 121 °C at 15 psi. The effect of enzymatic modification on the structural changes and functional properties of heat-processed soy flour was investigated. The combination of heat processing and enzymatic modification was carried out in two ways: (1) enzymatic modification followed by autoclaving and (2) autoclaving followed by enzymatic modification. Defatted soy flour (control), autoclaved soy flour, enzyme-modified flour, enzyme-modified and then autoclaved flour, autoclaved and then enzyme-modified flour were analyzed for physico-chemical and functional properties. Molecular weight profile of the protein was altered depending on the nature of treatments. Structural studies showed that enzymatic modification gave a porous type morphology to the particles. Enzymatic modification of autoclaved soy flour increased its surface hydrophobicity to 3136±400 units from 600±100 units of autoclaved soy flour. The results indicated that enzymatic modification of autoclaved soy flour increased its acid solubility (pH 4—4.5) from 17% to 56% over a control value of 24%. The foaming capacity of the enzyme-modified and then autoclaved soy flour was 80% while that of the autoclaved and then enzyme-modified flour was 42%. The soy flour that was autoclaved and then enzyme modified showed better emulsifying properties (174 mL oil/g flour) than the flour that was enzyme-modified and then autoclaved. The modified soy flour based on its functional and physico-chemical properties should find application in many food systems.

Commercial defatted soy flour (DSF) was dispersed in distilled water at pH 7 to prepare 5% aqueous dispersion. Soy protein hydrolysates (SPH) were obtained by enzymatic hydrolysis of the DSF using three different proteases (Flavourzyme 1000 L, No-vozym FM 2.0 L and Alcalase 2.4 L FG). The highest degree of hydrolysis (DH 39.5) was observed in the presence of protease Flavourzyme. SPH were used for measuring functional properties (foaming stability, gelation). Treatment with Flavourzyme improved foaming of proteins of DSF. Foaming stability was low in the presence of Novozym. Proteases treated DSF showed good gelation properties, mainly in the case of treatment with Flavourzyme. SDS-PAGE analysis showed that after enzyme ad-dition to the 5% aqueous dispersion of DSF each enzyme degraded both b-conglycinin and glycinin. In general, the basic polypeptide from glycinin showed the highest resistance to proteolytic activity. The most abundant free amino acids in the hydrolysates were histidine (30%), leucine (24%) and tyrosine (19%) in the case of the treatment with proteases Alcalase and Novozym, and arginine (22.1%), leucine (10.6%) and phenylalanine (12.9%) in the case of the treatment with Flavourzyme.

This study explored the possibilities of some selected flour blends vis-a-vis the physicochemical and functional properties of wheat flour. Ten flour blends from potato starch, cassava, maize and soybean flours and wheat flour were made and evaluated for physicochemical, functional and anti-nutritional properties. The range of proximate values were for moisture (3.76%–6.67%), protein (4.33–8.96%), ash (1.35–1.96%), fat (3.37–4.88%), fibre (1.22–1.89%) and carbohydrate (78.35–84.94%), whereas wheat flour had moisture (9.45%), protein (11.31%), ash (2.54%), fat (3.78%), fibre (1.31%) and carbohydrate (73.90%). Cyanogenic glucoside, saponion and tannin contents increased with increase substitution of cassava and soybean flours. Pasting temperatures of flour blends ranged from 69.03°C to 78.83°C, while wheat flour had 78.05°C. Peak, hot paste, breakdown, setback and cold paste viscosities were 1514–2822, 1036–1597, 487–1225, 580–884 and 1616–2461 cp in flour blends compared to 2361, 1360, 1001, 1079 and 2439 cp of wheat flour. Substitutions with soy flour decreased the peak, hot paste, breakdown and cold paste viscosities but increased the pasting temperatures. L*, a* and b* values ranged from 78.56 to 87.65, −0.34 to 0.71 and 10. 95 to 13.50 in flour blends while the wheat flour varied significantly at 2361.00, 1360.00 and 1001.00. The nutritional and pasting properties of some of flour blends were closely related to wheat flour and may be used for bakery requirements.
