This study evaluated the impact of Artemisia sphaerocephala Krasch glucomannan with different degrees of acetyl group substitution (DS) on the prebiotic properties of grape seed proanthocyanidins (GSP). UV spectra, CIELab, and dynamic light scattering analyses indicated DS-influenced variable interactions between GSP and glucomannan. In vitro fermentation demonstrated that glucomannan enhanced the solubility of some phenolic compounds, and decreased the pH value of fermentation liquids. The production of acetate acid and total short chain fatty acids in the GSP fermentation liquid increased with the degree of DS of glucomannan. Notably, acetylated glucomannan exerted dramatic effects on GSP-induced gut microbiota modulation. The relative abundances of Bacteroides ovatus and Bacteroides decreased as DS increased. Meanwhile, Bacteroides acidifaciens and Akkermansia muciniphila have a positive correlation, even though the GSP-promoted enrichment of A. muciniphila was inhibited by the added glucomannan. Moreover, glucomannan enhanced the metabolism of nucleotides, secondary bile acid, and glycan inhibited by GSP. These findings suggest that acetylated glucomannan affect the prebiotic properties of GSP with its DS serving as a key factor.

Polysaccharides are widely used to improve the quality of plant-based meat analogue (PMA). In this study, four kinds of konjac glucomannan (KG) with different deacetylation degrees (DD) were prepared, namely KG 1 (native KG, DD = 0.00 %), KG 2 (DD = 41.40 %), KG 3 (DD = 80.01 %) and KG 4 (DD = 89.07 %), and their effects on the quality of PMA were studied. Results manifested that KG 3 improved the hardness (from 3017.16 g to 3307.16 g) and protein digestibility (from 49.65 % to 53.01 %) of PMA without reducing the P 21 , KG 2 and KG 4 were less effective than KG 3 , while KG 1 led to a significant decline in the hardness and protein digestibility of PMA. The rheological properties and intermolecular force analysis showed that the partially deacetylated KG was more conducive to improving the G' of the protein system during heating and the proportion of covalent bonds in PMA. These findings suggested that partially deacetylated KG was more promising than native or highly deacetylated KG in PMA. Furthermore, scanning electron microscopy revealed that the morphology of KG gradually changed from fine filaments, to coarse filaments, short filaments and granules as DD increased. This study provides a theoretical basis for the application of partially deacetylated KG in PMA.
