Abstract
This relates to an aqueous dispersion comprising mustard bran and water in which a high pressure homogenisation treatment has been applied to alter the sugar moiety ratio of the mustard bran particles. Thus mustard bran is in the form of particles. This aqueous dispersion can be used to structure an emulsion.
Claims18
An oil-in-water emulsion comprising an oil phase and a water-phase,
- wherein the water phase comprises 0.5 to 15 wt.% of mustard bran,
- wherein the mustard bran comprises released mucilage and mustard bran particles,
- wherein the mustard bran is derived from Sinapis alba;
- and
- wherein the mustard bran particles have a combined molar amount of galactose + mannose, which 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.

An aqueous dispersion comprising:
- mustard bran particles derived from Sinapis alba;
- and
- water,
- wherein shear has been applied to the dispersion 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.
