CONTRIBUTION OF 5-HYDROXYMETHYLFURFURAL TO THE BROWNING OF FOOD PROTEINS DURING HEATING
Öz
5-Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) is formed via Maillard reaction and caramelization and is associated with browning. Its contribution to color under food-related conditions is unclear. This study investigated HMF’s effect on color in protein-containing systems under baking-like (high temperature, low moisture) conditions. Low-moisture model systems with HMF and casein, whey protein, gluten, ovalbumin, soy protein hydrolysate were heated at 200°C for 5, 10, and 20 min. A bread crust model containing HMF was also tested. Color (L*, a*, b*), HMF, and protein-bound lysine, arginine, and histidine were measured. HMF presence led to darker mixtures, with decreased L* and b* and increased a* values. No significant changes were observed in protein-bound amino acids. This is likely due to disruption of molecular interactions after acid hydrolysis. HMF concentrations decreased drastically within the first minutes of heating, while browning continued, suggesting that HMF or its products are incorporated into proteins.
