The impact of three arabinoxylan (AX) cultivars (262, 44, 229) on the physicochemical, rheological, and microstructural characteristics of AX hydrogels was explored. The gelation of AX262 was faster and the viscoelastic modulus was higher. During the gelation process, the consumption of ferulic acids was 96%, 87%, and 69% for AX262, AX44, and AX229, respectively, indicating a higher oxidative cross-linking degree of AX262. The decline of adsorption intensity for AX262 hydrogel at 1,644 and 3,423 cm−1 was more pronounced, which might be related to a denser gel network as a result of higher oxidation degree of FA. Meanwhile, AX262 hydrogel was more capable of binding water molecules and exhibited better thermal stability. The difference in the gelation properties of varied AX cultivars lied in the molecular structure. AX262 had a higher ferulic acid content (0.23 μg/mg) and larger molecular weight with 1.17 × 106 Da, contributing to an enhanced oxidative cross-linking capacity.
Novelty impact statement
Wheat bran arabinoxylans extracted from strong gluten wheat cultivars with higher contents of FA were suitable to fabricate hydrogel system, due to their better oxidative cross-linking capacity. The prepared AX hydrogel had uniform honeycomb structure with enhanced thermal stability and mechanical properties, which could be potentially used as delivery system for bioactive compounds.
