Problems solved by technology

Such changes may deleteriously affect the nature and quality of products containing or made from such dispersions
In particular, in food products containing such dispersions, the morphology of the fibers due to their function may be less than ideal not only before consumption but also after consumption

preparation example Construction

[0058] ● Preparation of aqueous dispersion: by dissolving 1.00 g NaCl and 0.15 g CaCl with Type 1 RO water (18.2 MΩ / cm resistivity) 2 .2H 2 O (to make up to 1 L) to prepare standardized tap water. The conductivity was 2.21 (±0.07) mS / cm at 25°C.

[0059] Moisture content (MC) and dry matter (DS): The moisture content of fibers with a moisture content of less than 20% is determined by an automatically timed infrared moisture balance at 105°C, typically by placing 3 to 5 grams of fiber in an aluminum pan to cover its entire bottom. The moisture content of the fibers is expressed in weight percent (wt %). For fibers with higher moisture content or co-processed with food ingredients, the infrared method may be the optimized oven method, as recommended in "Develop a drying method. Reference paper. Method collection. Mettler-Toledo AG December 2014". DS is calculated according to the following formula:

[0060] DS(%)=100%-MC(%)

Embodiment 1 and 2

[0085] Citrus fibers were produced according to the examples of WO2012 / 016190 using orange pulp and lemon peels as input materials.

[0086] The characteristics of the orange pulp fiber and lemon peel fiber are shown in Table 1 below.

[0087] Table 1

[0088]

[0089] The normalized c* and stiffness in tap water for orange pulp fibers and lemon husk fibers are shown in Table 2 below. The fibers were dispersed in standardized water using a low shear mixer (4 blade propeller mounted on a RWD20 digital IKA mixer set at 900 rpm).

[0091] feature

Embodiment 3

[0093] The effects of the pH value and ionic strength of the dispersion medium on the c* and stiffness of the lemon peel fibers of Example 2 were studied. An aqueous dispersion with lemon husk fibers was prepared by dispersing the fibers in standardized water with a low shear mixer (4 blade propeller mounted on a RWD20 digital IKA mixer set at 900 rpm).

[0094] figure 2 Results are shown for stiffness versus c* as a function of both pH (pH was set to 4.6, 6.0 and 9.0) and ionic strength (I was set to 0.02-0.04-0.20). The obtained c* is between 2.72 wt% and 3.64 wt%, while the obtained stiffness is between 1109 Pa / (wt%) and 2502 Pa / (wt%). The inventors have observed that, by being able to adjust the stiffness, food designers may be able to control the textural properties of the dispersion and adjust the functional properties of the dispersion, such as dispersion stability, pumpability, etc. It may also be possible to reduce the sensitivity of the dispersion's texture to v...

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims the benefit of European Application No. 16178533.2 filed 08.07.2016, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. field of invention [0003] The present invention relates to aqueous dispersions containing fibers of plant origin. The invention also relates to methods for producing said dispersions and various uses thereof. Background of the invention [0004] Many of today's products, such as food, feed, personal care, and pharmaceutical products, contain ingredients organized in complex hierarchical structures with different coexisting phases over a wide range of spatial length scales from molecular to microscopic. In particular the morphology of these products (e.g. macro and microstructure) is a dynamic concept which changes continuously over time and the rate of change depends on many factors including product composition, environmental conditions (temperature, pH , mechanica...
