Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of plant protein extraction, and particularly relates to a method for preparing peanut protein powder. Background Art
[0002] Peanuts are an important oil and protein resource. Peanut protein is highly nutritious, containing not only high-quality protein and healthy oils but also a well-balanced ratio of amino acids and fatty acids, providing essential nutrients for the human body. In addition to essential nutrients, peanuts are also rich in lecithin, purines, multiple vitamins, tocopherols, and minerals such as calcium and potassium. Peanuts also possess excellent functional properties, such as emulsification, gelation, and foaming properties, making them widely used in food, health supplements, and other fields. Currently, the mainstream method for extracting peanut protein is alkali dissolution and acid precipitation. However, this method has the following significant disadvantages: 1. Low extraction rate: It is difficult to fully dissolve different types of proteins (especially gluten) in peanuts through one-time alkaline extraction, resulting in some proteins remaining in the residue, and the overall extraction rate is usually less than 80%; 2. Protein variability: Strong alkali (high pH) and subsequent acid precipitation process (low pH) can easily lead to the destruction of protein structure and a significant decrease in functional properties (such as solubility and emulsification); 3. Limited protein purity: Non-protein impurities dissolved in the alkaline extract (such as polysaccharides, pigments, phytic acid, etc.) are difficult to effectively separate during acid precipitation, resulting in the purity (protein content) of the final protein product usually being below 90%; 4. Residual anti-nutritional factors: The removal effect of naturally occurring anti-nutritional factors in peanuts, such as phytic acid, is limited; 5. The process is single and extensive: There is a lack of targeted treatment of the solubility characteristics of different protein components.
[0003] While there are improvements in the prior art, such as enzyme-assisted and ultrasound-assisted methods, these methods often focus on optimizing a single process, such as improving alkali extraction efficiency or precipitation efficiency, and fail to systematically address the comprehensive issues of extraction rate, protein denaturation, purity, and removal of anti-nutritional factors. Furthermore, process complexity and costs may increase. Furthermore, the traditional extraction process is not protected by antioxidants, leading to oxidative denaturation of the protein. Without decolorization, the color and activity of the protein are poor. The present invention aims to provide a fundamentally innovative process route. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide a peanut protein extraction process. The process significantly improves the extraction rate and purity of peanut protein through multi-stage targeted extraction, mild dynamic protection, composite precipitation separation, etc., has good antioxidant effect, and maintains the natural structure and functional properties of peanut protein to the greatest extent.
[0005] In order to achieve the above technical objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is: A method for preparing peanut protein powder comprises the following steps: (1) Using a vibration sorter to remove the red skin, the peanut kernels are subjected to physical oil extraction to obtain peanut oil and peanut defatted meal. The peanut defatted meal is mechanically crushed to obtain peanut defatted meal powder with a particle size of no more than 3 mm. The pH is adjusted to 5.0, and phytase is added to treat the peanut defatted meal powder for 60-90 minutes, and the supernatant is removed by centrifugation. (2) Disperse defatted peanut meal in water, adjust the pH to 7.0-7.5 with 0.3 mol / L sodium hydroxide solution, add composite protease, protective agent and antioxidant, and stir and extract at 40°C for 60 min. After the extraction, centrifuge at 10,000 rpm and 4°C for 10-15 min to obtain supernatant I and residue I containing albumin and globulin; (3) Resuspend the residue I in water, adjust the pH to 9.0 with 0.5 mol / L sodium hydroxide solution, extract with stirring at 45°C for 20-30 min, then heat to 50°C and extract with stirring for 40-60 min. After the extraction, centrifuge at 9000 rpm and 4°C for 10-15 min to obtain supernatant II and residue II rich in glutenin; (4) The supernatant I was subjected to low-temperature isoelectric precipitation: the pH was adjusted to 4.5 under stirring and ice-water bath cooling, and the solution was allowed to stand at room temperature for 60 min. The precipitate I was collected by centrifugation at 9000 rpm and 4°C. (5) The supernatant II was subjected to calcium ion-assisted isoelectric precipitation: the pH was adjusted to 5.0, 1 mM calcium chloride was added, and the pH was adjusted to 4.8-5.2. The supernatant II was allowed to stand at room temperature for 60 min, and then centrifuged at 9000 rpm at 4°C to collect the precipitate II. (6) Combine precipitate I and precipitate II and wash them 2-3 times with 4°C deionized water. Spray dry the washed protein precipitate and grind it through a 60-mesh sieve to obtain peanut protein powder.
[0006] Furthermore, in step (1), the mass ratio of defatted peanut meal to phytase is 100:0.01.
[0007] Furthermore, in step (2), the solid-liquid ratio of the defatted peanut meal to water is 1:10; and the mass ratio of the defatted peanut meal, compound protease, protective agent, and antioxidant is 100:0.5:1:0.05.
[0008] Furthermore, the protective agent is trehalose; the composite protease is neutral protease and flavor protease, and the mass ratio of the two is 1:1.
[0009] Furthermore, the antioxidant includes vitamin E and emblica officinalis extract, and the mass ratio of the two is 1:1.
[0010] Furthermore, in step (3), the solid-liquid ratio of the residue I to water is 1:8.
[0011] Furthermore, in step (4), the amount of calcium chloride added to the supernatant II is 5 mg / L.
[0012] Furthermore, the spray drying in step (6) adopts an inlet air temperature of 80-90°C and an atomization pressure of 0.3-0.5 MPa.
[0013] The peanut extraction process of the present invention incorporates antioxidants, including vitamin E and amla extract. Amla extract is rich in vitamin C, polyphenols, and other substances. The polyphenols in amla interact with proteins, significantly improving the emulsification and foaming properties of peanut protein. Plant polyphenols, as natural antioxidants, effectively scavenge free radicals, inhibit oxidative stress, and protect peanut protein from oxidative damage. Furthermore, polyphenols interact with proteins to alter their spatial conformation, enhancing thermal stability and mechanical properties. Plant polyphenols also possess antimicrobial activity, effectively delaying microbial contamination of peanut protein powder and extending the shelf life of the food. Vitamin E is considered a natural antioxidant, further meeting current consumer demand for "clean label" products. The amla extract (vitamin C and polyphenols) works synergistically with vitamin E to provide enhanced antioxidant protection.
[0014] The present invention adopts calcium salt as an auxiliary in the second stage of protein extraction, which significantly improves the precipitation efficiency and total yield of the protein, effectively improves the physical properties of the precipitate, reduces the water content, and facilitates subsequent operations.
[0015] When phytic acid combines with protein, it reduces the solubility, emulsification ability, foaming ability and other functional properties of the protein, seriously affecting the taste and texture of peanut protein. Phytase is added to the peanut protein extraction process of the present invention, and phytase can effectively decompose phytic acid.
[0016] The present invention maintains mild extraction temperatures at each stage, dynamically changing the temperature to enhance the efficient dissolution of gluten, reducing denaturation caused by sudden temperature changes, and calcium ion-assisted precipitation addresses the difficulty of separating high-density gluten. Furthermore, enzymatic hydrolysis and the addition of phytase enhance efficiency and improve nutritional quality.
[0017] Beneficial effects The present invention adds antioxidants during the peanut protein extraction process to effectively provide protection and prevent oxidative deterioration that begins during the processing. A step-by-step temperature increase strategy and the addition of protective agents and antioxidants are adopted to balance dissolution efficiency and protein protection.
[0018] The present invention splits the traditional alkaline extraction process into two targeted stages, optimizes the respective optimal extraction conditions according to the solubility characteristics of different proteins, significantly improves the dissolution rate of total protein, and especially solves the key problem of low gluten extraction rate.
[0019] The extraction steps of the present invention are not simply superimposed, but work synergistically with each other. The entire process design is closely linked to each other to achieve high extraction rate, high purity and high functionality of peanut protein powder. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
