Abstract
- We herein evaluated the impact of adding wheat bran dietary fiber (WBDF) on the aggregation behavior of gluten in dough at various stages of the noodle-making process. Scanning electron microscopy and confocal laser scanning microscopy images confirmed the effective insertion of WBDF particles into the gluten matrix. Importantly, the gap between WBDF and gluten widened during the rolling process. The addition of WBDF led to a reduction in glutenin macropolymer (GMP) content and an elevation in sulfhydryl content, induced the depolymerization behaviors at the molecular level. Additionally, it facilitated the conversion of α-helices and β-turns into β-sheets and random coils within the dough. Moreover, the processing and addition of WBDF contributed to a decrease in weight loss, whereas the degradation temperature remained constant. Resting decreased the sulfhydryl content, whereas sheeting and cutting increased it, further fostering protein depolymerization in the presence of WBDF. These actions significantly increased the β-sheets and random coils content at the expense of β-turns and α-helices content. Significantly, controlled processing emerged as a crucial factor in enhancing gluten depolymerization induced by WBDF in the dough. This comprehensive study provides a nuanced perspective on controlling dough processing to strike a balance between dietary fiber-rich and high-quality foods. • GMP revealed that WBDF addition level had more influence than noodle-making process. • WBDF, and sheeting and cutting induced the transformation of α-helix and β-turn into β-sheet and random coil structure. • Resting resulted in a more uniform gluten network. • WBDF and processing had a synergistic effect on the gluten aggregation behavior of the dough.
