Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of food processing technology, specifically relating to a modified potato resistant starch and its application in set-type yogurt. Background Technology
[0002] Potato starch is rich in starch and has advantages such as large particle size, high viscosity, low gelatinization temperature, strong water absorption, and high paste transparency, giving it high economic value and development potential. Resistant starch (RS) refers to starch and its breakdown products that are not absorbed by the healthy human small intestine. It has physiological functions similar to dietary fiber. Studies have shown that adding resistant starch to the diet can inhibit postprandial blood glucose rise, lower serum cholesterol levels, and promote the proliferation of beneficial bacteria such as lactobacilli and bifidobacteria, thus improving the intestinal microecological environment.
[0003] Resistant starch can be classified into five types: RS1, RS2, RS3, RS4, and RS5. RS3 resistant starch (also known as retrograde resistant starch) is formed by rearranging starch molecules through relevant treatments, exhibiting good thermal stability and processing adaptability. In recent years, RS3 starch has been used as a prebiotic and thickening stabilizer in fermented dairy products. However, in existing studies, it is mostly used as a stabilizer in small quantities, thus failing to provide sufficient dietary fiber. Furthermore, RS3 starch has lower transparency and water-holding capacity compared to native potato starch, limiting its application in high-dose fermented dairy products. Current technologies for improving the properties of RS3 starch often employ physical modifications such as ultrasound and radio frequency or chemical methods such as octenyl succinic anhydride esterification. However, improving these properties often requires inhibiting retrogradation or disrupting crystallization, leading to a decrease in resistance content. Therefore, it is urgent to develop methods suitable for maintaining the original health functions and processing characteristics of PRS3, to solve the problems of low transparency and reduced water retention, and to prepare modified potato RS3 starch that is more suitable for set-type yogurt, so as to better improve the quality and efficacy of potato resistant starch set-type yogurt. Summary of the Invention
[0004] Technical Problem to be Solved: To address the aforementioned technical problems, the present invention aims to disclose a method for preparing modified potato resistant starch set-type yogurt. This method includes adding chitosan oligosaccharide and zinc salt to potato PRS3 starch milk for mixing and treatment, followed by reaction with leucine-glycine dipeptide to obtain composite modified potato PRS3 starch. The composite modified potato PRS3 starch is pre-gelatinized and mixed with milk, then subjected to mixing, homogenization sterilization, inoculation fermentation, and post-maturation to produce set-type yogurt. This invention utilizes chitosan oligosaccharide-Zn²⁺ and leucine-glycine dipeptide composite modified potato PRS3 starch to form a reversible three-dimensional coordination network and hydrophobic interactions, significantly improving transparency, freeze-thaw stability, and resistance retention rate, and enhancing the adsorption and binding capacity for milk proteins and milk fats. The set-type yogurt of this invention has good gel strength, textural properties, and sensory quality, effectively promoting probiotic proliferation, improving curdling efficiency, preventing whey separation, promoting the synthesis of short-chain fatty acids in the intestine, and improving intestinal health.

[0013] 1. This invention uses amino oligosaccharide-Zn 2+ And a dipeptide-modified potato PRS3 starch synthesized from leucine and glycine, Zn 2+The modified structure forms a reversible and loose three-dimensional coordination network with the protonated amino groups on the oligosaccharide and the abundant hydroxyl groups on the potato PRS3 starch molecular chain, avoiding excessive aggregation between starch molecules or the formation of dense gel clumps, thereby reducing light scattering and improving the transparency of potato PRS3 starch. During the freeze-thaw cycle, the reversible coordination bonds generated by the modification can moderately shrink the network during freezing without destroying the coordination sites, and the network quickly returns to its original state during thawing, thereby effectively inhibiting the mechanical damage of ice crystals to the structure of potato PRS3 starch, preventing dehydration shrinkage and water separation, and significantly reducing freeze-thaw water separation to improve freeze-thaw stability. When a dipeptide synthesized from leucine and glycine is mixed with potato PRS3 starch treated with amino oligosaccharide-Zn²⁺, its leucine side chain can insert into the hydrophobic cavity of the double helix structure of potato PRS3 starch and the hydrophobic region of the starch molecule chain. This hydrophobic interaction disturbs the ordered structure of the tightly crystalline region of potato PRS3 starch, reducing excessive crystallinity and thus inhibiting long-term retrogradation during storage. Simultaneously, the amino and carboxyl groups of glycine can form a broad hydrogen bond network with the hydroxyl groups on the starch chain, the amino groups on the oligosaccharide, and water molecules, enhancing the hydration capacity of potato PRS3 starch and improving its water-holding capacity. Furthermore, its hydrophobic end is anchored to the starch chain, while its hydrophilic end coordinates with the amino groups or Zn²⁺ in the amino oligosaccharide-Zn²⁺ coordination network. 2+ The interaction between the coordinated water layer and the starch enhances the organic connection between potato PRS3 starch and the amino oligosaccharide coordination bridging network. The small molecule flexible structure of the dipeptide allows it to diffuse freely into the inter-chain gaps of starch, thereby preventing the formation of excessive coarse crystals in the amorphous region of starch during the rearrangement of starch molecules. This promotes the rearrangement to form a more regular crystal form with stronger resistance to enzymatic hydrolysis, and further synergistically improves the freeze-thaw stability, transparency and resistance retention rate of potato PRS3 starch.
[0014] 2. This invention uses composite modified potato PRS3 starch to prepare set-type yogurt. The three-dimensional coordination network in the composite modified potato PRS3 starch forms a stable cationic microenvironment around the starch molecules. This microenvironment can electrostatically attract casein in milk, causing casein to be adsorbed onto the surface and internal pores of the starch network. This prevents free casein from agglomerating and precipitating due to charge repulsion, thus avoiding its impact on the yogurt's texture. Furthermore, the high porosity of the coordination network allows whey protein, casein, and small-molecule lactose to freely permeate and be physically retained, maintaining efficient and stable milk absorption capacity. Simultaneously, Zn... 2+ It can cross-link with the phosphate groups on the milk fat globule membrane, making the fat globules uniformly dispersed. The hydrophobic end of leucine-glycine is inserted into the hydrophobic region of the starch double helix to improve the affinity of potato PRS3 starch surface for milk fat, significantly enhancing the adsorption capacity and binding strength of potato PRS3 starch for milk protein, thereby achieving the purpose of efficient absorption and stable binding of milk protein and milk fat.
[0015] 3. This invention uses modified potato PRS3 starch and milk as raw materials to prepare set-type yogurt through probiotic fermentation. The modified potato PRS3 starch and amino oligosaccharides can promote the proliferation of probiotics and encourage probiotics and casein to actively accumulate around the starch network, improving the coagulation ability of probiotics and shortening the coagulation time. Moreover, the coordination network locks in a large amount of free water through hydrogen bonds and capillary action, which can prevent moisture loss during fermentation, acidification, and refrigeration, and better prevent whey separation, thus giving the yogurt good sensory quality. The modified potato PRS3 starch can combine with milk protein through multiple interactions to form a uniform and dense three-dimensional composite gel network, giving the yogurt good gel strength and textural properties, ensuring that the yogurt maintains good quality during storage. In vitro fecal fermentation model tests show that the potato resistant starch set-type yogurt prepared by the method of this invention can promote the synthesis of short-chain fatty acids in the human intestine and enhance the intestinal health function of the yogurt.

[0038] Table 1. Physicochemical properties of Examples 1-5, Comparative Examples 1-3, and native potato starch.
[0039] As shown in Table 1, the freeze-thaw water separation rate of Examples 1-5 was significantly lower than that of Comparative Examples 1-3, and the solubility, transparency, and milk absorption were all higher than those of Comparative Examples 1-3. The water-holding capacity was significantly higher than that of unmodified potato PRS3 starch. This indicates that the Zn content in the composite modified potato PRS3 starch described in this invention is significantly higher than that in Comparative Examples 1-3. 2+ It forms a reversible three-dimensional coordination network with chitosan oligosaccharide and starch molecular chains, effectively inhibiting starch aggregation and improving transparency. At the same time, it enhances freeze-thaw stability through the reversible contraction-recovery properties of coordination bonds. Meanwhile, the hydrophobic end of the leucine-glycine dipeptide inserts into the starch double helix structure, disturbing the crystallization region and reducing the tendency for retrogradation. The hydrophilic end interacts with the coordination network, enhancing hydration capacity and promoting the formation of regular crystal forms. Example 6

[0049] (1) Sensory evaluation The sensory evaluation method for PRS3 set-type yogurt was based on GB19302-2010 "National Food Safety Standard for Fermented Milk". It was completed by a sensory evaluation team of 10 food professionals (5 men and 5 women). The members of the sensory evaluation team scored all yogurt samples according to the sensory scoring table 2. The scoring content included texture (weight 0.33), mouthfeel (weight 0.25), flavor (weight 0.21), and color (weight 0.21).
[0050] Table 2 Sensory evaluation criteria for modified potato resistant starch set-type yogurt
[0051] Table 3 Sensory evaluation scores of Examples 6-10 and Comparative Examples 4-7
[0052] As shown in Table 3, the sensory scores of the modified potato resistant starch set-type yogurt prepared in Examples 6-10 were better than those of Comparative Examples 4-7. This indicates that the composite modified potato PRS3 starch has excellent milk absorption characteristics. Its three-dimensional coordination network enables casein to be efficiently adsorbed onto the starch surface, forming a uniform and dense gel network with no whey separation and a milky white and bright color. At the same time, the leucine-glycine dipeptide can further improve the absorption and stability of milk proteins in milk, thus giving the modified potato resistant starch set-type yogurt good sensory quality.
[0053] (2) Yogurt storage quality evaluation test During storage, the samples were kept in a refrigerator at 4°C. Samples were taken out on days 1, 3, 6, 9, 15, 21, and 27 for the determination of the following indicators. The specific determination methods are as follows: ① Acidity: Weigh 10g of yogurt sample into an Erlenmeyer flask, add 20mL of boiled and cooled distilled water to room temperature, and 2 drops of 0.5% phenolphthalein indicator. Mix well and titrate with 0.1mol / L NaOH standard solution until a faint pink color appears and does not fade within 30s. Record the volume of NaOH standard solution consumed. The acidity value of yogurt is expressed in °T, and its calculation formula is as follows:
[0054] In the formula, X represents the acidity of the yogurt, C represents the concentration of the NaOH standard solution, V represents the volume of NaOH standard solution consumed during titration, and m represents the mass of the yogurt.
[0055] ②Gel strength: A P / 0.5 probe was selected, and compression mode was used. The speed was set to 1.5 mm / s before the test, 1 mm / s during the test, and 10 mm / s after the test, with a compression distance of 20 mm. The gel strength of the yogurt was then measured. ③Textural properties: The hardness, elasticity, cohesiveness and adhesiveness of yogurt were analyzed using an A / BE-35 probe. The measurement conditions were: measurement speed of 1 mm / s, pre-measurement speed of 2 mm / s, post-measurement speed of 2 mm / s, forward distance of 20 mm, and sensing force of 5 g.
[0056] ④ Total number of viable lactic acid bacteria and number of bifidobacteria: The number of viable lactic acid bacteria shall be determined according to GB4789.35-2016 National Food Safety Standard, Microbiological Examination of Food, Lactic Acid The bacteria were tested according to the "Bacterial Test".
[0057] ⑤ Water-holding capacity: Accurately weigh 10g (accurate to 0.01g) of sample into a 50mL centrifuge tube, centrifuge at 3000r / min for 20min, discard the supernatant, and accurately weigh the remaining precipitate. The formula for calculating the water-holding capacity is as follows:
[0058] In the formula: m0 represents the mass of the centrifuge tube, m1 represents the mass of the yogurt sample, and m2 represents the mass of the remaining precipitate and the centrifuge tube.
[0059] Depend on Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 It can be seen that the modified potato resistant starch set-type yogurt prepared in Example 7 has better acidity, water-holding capacity, lactic acid bacteria survival, and textural properties than Comparative Examples 4-7 and commercially available yogurts during storage. This is due to the presence of chitosan oligosaccharide-Zn. 2+ The leucine-glycine dipeptide composite modified starch can efficiently adsorb milk proteins through its porous structure and abundant surface active sites, promoting the formation of a dense casein-whey protein cross-linked gel network in yogurt. This effectively delays the rise in acidity during storage, maintains good water-holding capacity, and prevents whey separation and textural deterioration. Simultaneously, the composite carrier provides excellent protection for probiotics, ensuring that lactic acid bacteria and bifidobacteria maintain high activity during storage, significantly superior to ordinary commercially available yogurt. Furthermore, the modified potato resistant starch-based settling yogurt in Example 7 exhibits stronger cohesiveness and viscosity, with the strongest internal gel network binding force, effectively resisting physical stress during storage. In contrast, commercially available yogurt, lacking the support of the composite modified starch, shows a significant decrease in hardness, consistency, and gel strength, and is prone to whey separation.
[0060] (3) Short-chain fatty acid content ① In vitro fermentation model i. Preparation of in vitro simulated digestive fluid: Sample digestive fluid was prepared by simulating human oral, gastric and intestinal digestion in vitro. Using the set-type yogurt prepared in Example 7 and Comparative Examples 4-7, as well as ordinary yogurt, as the test objects, 60g / L LRS3 set-type yogurt solutions (referred to as Example 7, Comparative Example 4, Comparative Example 5, and Comparative Example 6, respectively) and 60g / L ordinary yogurt solutions were prepared. 10mL of each solution was added to 1mL of 1200U / mL α-amylase. After incubation in a water bath at 37℃, 120r / min, and in the dark for 15min, the pH of the system was adjusted to 3 with HCl solution. 1.6mL of 24000U / mL pepsin was added, and the solution was incubated in a water bath at 37℃, 120r / min, and in the dark for 3h. Then, the pH was adjusted to 7 with NaOH, and 2mL of 1000U / mL trypsin and 1mL of 4% porcine bile salts were added. The solution was incubated in a water bath at 37℃, 120r / min, and in the dark for 3h to obtain the in vitro digestion simulation solution. ii. Preparation of fecal microbial suspension Fresh feces were collected from 6 healthy volunteers (3 males and 3 females) with no history of gastrointestinal disease and no use of antibiotics within the past six months. The feces were mixed with phosphate buffer (pH 7.2) at a ratio of 1:10 (W / V) under anaerobic conditions. Then, the impurities in the feces were removed with sterile gauze and placed in a beaker. The supernatant was collected to obtain a fecal bacterial suspension. iii Simulated fermentation Add 27 mL of anaerobic culture medium (2 g each of peptone, yeast extract and sodium bicarbonate, 0.04 g each of potassium dihydrogen phosphate and dipotassium hydrogen phosphate, 0.2 g of sodium chloride, 0.01 g each of CaCl2•6H2O and Mg2SO4•7H2O, 2 mL of Tween 80, 50 mg of heme chloride, 10 μg of vitamin K1, 0.5 g of L-cysteine, and 1 L of water) to the Erlenmeyer flasks, 3 mL of fecal suspension, and 1 mL of samples after different in vitro simulated digestion. The blank group (BCG group) used an equal volume of distilled water instead of samples. After thorough mixing, anaerobic culture was carried out at 37 °C for 24 h. ② Determination of short-chain fatty acid content i Sample pretreatment After 24 hours of fermentation, the sample was transferred to a centrifuge tube and centrifuged at 12000 rpm and 4℃ for 5 min. 5 mL of the supernatant was taken into the centrifuge tube, and 0.5 mL of 50% sulfuric acid solution and 5 mL of diethyl ether were added. The mixture was vortexed for 1 min and then centrifuged at 10000 rpm for 5 min at 4℃. The upper diethyl ether layer was taken, filtered through a 0.22 μm organic phase filter membrane, and stored in a gas chromatography vial for analysis.

[0062] Table 4 Short-chain fatty acids of Example 7, Comparative Examples 4-7 and regular yogurt
[0063] As shown in Table 4, the modified potato resistant starch set-type yogurt prepared in Example 7 can significantly promote the secretion of acetic acid, propionic acid and isovaleric acid. This indicates that the composite modified potato PRS3 starch can be utilized by the intestinal microorganisms, promoting the formation of short-chain fatty acids by the intestinal microorganisms. At the same time, chitosan oligosaccharide and leucine-glycine dipeptide can also act as prebiotics to promote the probiotic effect of intestinal probiotics, enabling the intestinal flora to produce beneficial short-chain fatty acids, thereby effectively regulating the intestinal health of the body.
