Abstract
The invention relates to a process for the manufacture of an aqueous dispersion comprising mustard bran comprising the following steps: providing an aqueous dispersion comprising mustard bran particles and applying a high pressure homogenisation treatment to alter the sugar moiety ratio of the mustard bran particles. The invention further relates to an oil-in-water emulsion comprising an aqueous dispersion that can be prepared by the aforementioned process.
Claims13
A process for the manufacture of an aqueous dispersion comprising mustard bran comprising the following steps:
- a) providing an aqueous dispersion comprising mustard bran, wherein the mustard bran comprises mustard bran particles, wherein the mustard bran particles have a sugar moiety profile in which the combined molar amount of galactose+mannose, is at least 0.85 times the molar amount of arabinose;
- b) applying shear to the dispersion provided at step a) using a high pressure homogenizer operating at a pressure drop of at least 600 bars to provide mustard bran particles having a sugar moiety profile in which the combined molar amount of galactose+mannose, is at most 0.75 times the molar amount of arabinose;
- wherein the sugar moiety profile of the mustard bran particles is determined by isolating the mustard bran particles by means of centrifugation, hydrolysing the polysaccharides contained in the particles and analysing the sugar composition of the hydrolysed mustard bran polysaccharides by means of 1H-NMR, using the procedure specified in the description.
