Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method of preparing a liquid oat base for use in the manufacture of food for human consumption, to products prepared by the method and their use.
  • Oat bran is the cell wall layer enclosing the oat endosperm and germ from which it can be separated by milling techniques.
  • oat bran is rich in cell wall polysaccharides of two kinds, ⁇ -glucan and arabinoxylan.
  • ⁇ -Glucan is a high molecular weight linear polysaccharide comprising about 70% 1-4-O- and 30% 1-3-O-linked ⁇ -D-glucopyranosyl units.
  • Native ⁇ -glucan has a molecular weight in the order of 1-2 ⁇ 10 6 Dalton. Most of native oat glucan can be solubilized by treatment at 60° C. with water. In aqueous solution ⁇ -glucan can be degraded by treatment with ⁇ -D-glucanase, which hydrolyzes 1-3-O glucosidic linkages.
  • An important feature of aqueous solutions of ⁇ -glucan is their viscosity.
  • the pentosan arabinoxylan is a constituent of oat bran. It is a structurally complex hemicellulose comprising (1-4)- ⁇ -D-xylopyranosyl chains (xylose chains) to which ⁇ -L-arabinofuranosyl (arabinose) and other residues are attached. Water-soluble arabinoxylan also imparts viscosity to the aqueous phase. However, only a small portion of native oat bran arabinoxylan is water soluble. For this and other reasons arabinoxylan is resistant to enzymatic hydrolysis. Internal (endo- ⁇ -1,4-xylopyranosyl) linkages in xylan can be hydrolyzed by xylanases (endo- ⁇ -1,4-xylanases).
  • Oat bran whole groat meal (whole meal), rolled oats, groats or oat endosperm flour is used as a raw material for health foods such as oat fiber drinks.
  • Their positive health effect linked to its ⁇ -glucan content is believed to be due to an increase of intestine fluid viscosity, delay of gastric emptying, slowing of intestinal transit and of glucose and sterol absorption (Johansson et al., Structural characterization of water soluble ⁇ - glucan of oat bran. Carbohydr Polym 42 (2002) 143-148).
  • Oat fiber drinks contain particulate matter.
  • Size and other properties of oat bran flour particles in the drink are important for at least two reasons: palatability and physical suspension stability.
  • Physical stability of a suspension can be defined as the delay of sedimentation caused by suspension stabilizing agents such as soluble ⁇ -glucan. Physical stability is visualized as phase separation. It can be monitored by recording the position of the phase separation boundary.
  • Palatability or feeling of smoothness on ingestion improves with diminishing particle size but is also influenced by the viscosity of the suspension medium, the hardness and form of the particles, and their concentration. Palatability and/or feeling of smoothness improves with increasing viscosity and deteriorates with increasing hardness/angularity and concentration of the particles.
  • An average critical size for particles in suspension is about 25 ⁇ m (Tyle P. Effect of size, shape and hardness of particles in suspension on oral texture and palatability. Acta Physiologica 84 (1993) 111-118). Food comprising particles of this size and larger, in particular hard and/or angular particles, will not be felt smooth by the average consumer.
  • An object of the invention is to provide a method of preparing from an oat raw material comprising arabinoxylan, such as from oat bran, whole groat meal, rolled oats groats or oat endosperm flour, a liquid oat base of improved smoothness.
  • Another object of the invention is that the improvement in respect of smoothness is not obtained by taking recourse to an oat raw material comprising arabinoxylan, in particular oat bran or a material rich in oat bran, milled to a particle size at which properties other than size do no longer influence palatability.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide a corresponding liquid oat base.
  • a still further object of the invention is to provide the liquid oat base of the invention with a desired viscosity, such as one identical with or similar to that of a corresponding not improved liquid oat base.
  • liquid refers to an aqueous liquid which may contain particles suspended therein.
  • a method of preparing a liquid oat base for use in the manufacture of food for human consumption comprising:
  • step (c) comprises contacting the aqueous suspension of step (b) first with ⁇ -amylase, ⁇ -amylase, ⁇ -glucanase to partially hydrolyze starch and ⁇ -glucan, then with xylanase to raise the concentration of soluble arabinoxylan in the suspension by a factor of 5 or more to provide a liquid oat base.

It can be added as such to other food products or in form of a dried powder thereof, in particular in form of a spray dried powder, that is, a powderous oat base.
  • the method of the invention does not affect, i.e. preserves, the content of soluble ⁇ -glucan.
  • the preservation of soluble ⁇ -glucan is independent of xylanase concentration. Neither does the method of the invention affect the composition of soluble protein, as evidenced by SDS-PAGE gel electrophoresis.

  • a preferred xylanase concentration is 1250 FXU per 100 g flour but other concentrations, such as from 100 FXU per 100 g floor to 5000 FXU or more per 100 g flour can be employed.
