In this study, dietary fiber fractions of red and green lentils were
isolated, and their potential uses in food products as functional ingredients were
determined. During the isolation of dietary fiber fractions, three different
methods were used, and three different dietary fiber fractions (hull fiber,
insoluble cotyledon fiber and soluble cotyledon fiber) were obtained. Besides
the composition and yield of the isolated fibers, their functional properties
such as water holding capacity, oil holding capacity, emulsion formation
ability and swelling power were also determined. On the other hand, thermal
properties of the isolated fibers were determined by the DSC method. From green
lentil flour, 6.83% hull fiber, 1.78% insoluble cotyledon fiber and 8.00%
soluble cotyledon fiber were obtained while 5.16%, hull fiber, 0.62% insoluble cotyledon
fiber and 7.08% soluble cotyledon fiber were isolated from red lentil flour. Yield
for cotyledon insoluble fiber from red lentils were lower than the yield of
cotyledon insoluble fiber from green lentils. Total dietary fiber contents for
the hull fiber, soluble cotyledon fiber and insoluble cotyledon fiber
ingredients isolated from green lentils were 23.76, 2.51 and 72.81% whereas for
red lentils these values were 20.30, 11.06 and 43.68%, respectively. For the functional
properties of dietary fibers, insoluble cotyledon dietary fibers showed higher
water holding, fat retention and swelling capacities than other dietary fiber
fractions. Emulsion forming capacity was generally weak for lentil fibers. But,
the emulsion forming capacity of soluble cotyledon fibers were greater than
insoluble cotyledon fiber and hull fiber ingredients.
