In situ digestion of canola protein gel observed by synchrotron X-Ray Scattering
We address the issue of structure changes of a canola protein gel (as a solid food model) during gastrointestinal digestion. We present a method for synchrotron Small-Angle X-ray Scattering analysis of the digestion of a gel in a capillary. Scanning the capillary allows tracking the digestion under diffusion of enzymatic juices. The fitting parameters characterizing the sizes, scattering intensities and structures allow to distinguish the compact, unfolded or aggregated states of proteins. The evolutions of these parameters enable to detail the complex changes of proteins during gel digestion, involving back-and-forth evolutions with proteins unfolding (1 st and 3 rd steps), re-compaction (2 nd step) due to gastrointestinal pH and enzyme actions, before final protein scissions (4 th step) resulting in small peptides. This complexity is related to the wide ranges of successive pH and enzyme activity acting on large and charged protein assemblies. Digestion is therefore impacted by the conditions of food preparation.
