Abstract
The aim of this study was to examine the effects of xylitol as a sucrose alternative in cookies on the formation of free fluorescent compounds and browning associated with the Maillard reaction and on antioxidative potential during storage. The fluorescent measurements of ethanolic extracts of cookies and spectrophotometric assessments of melanoidins extracts of cookies support the thesis that xylitol, being a polyol like sugars, participates in the Maillard reaction. Melanoidins extracted from sucrose-containing cookies were characterized by higher values of browning index (25.93–72.53 OD/100 g) than melanoidins from cookies with xylitol (20.21–44.97 OD/100 g), probably due to structural differences of sucrose and xylitol. Extracts of melanoidins, which had a higher browning index, had a higher ability to scavenge DPPH• and ABTS•+ radicals in ethanolic extracts of cookies. Cookies containing xylitol kept their antioxidant potential until 6 months of storage, while after 3 months of storage, sucrose addition significantly (p < 0.05) accelerated the storage time-related reduction of scavenging DPPH• and ABTS•+ radicals in ethanolic extracts of cookies. The use of xylitol in cookies instead of sucrose is more beneficial because it results in the formation of lower amounts of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) and in a lower decrease of browning index and losses of antioxidative potential during baking and storage for the 12-month period.

期刊介绍:
The NFS Journal publishes high-quality original research articles and methods papers presenting cutting-edge scientific advances as well as review articles on current topics in all areas of nutrition and food science. The journal particularly invites submission of articles that deal with subjects on the interface of nutrition and food research and thus connect both disciplines. The journal offers a new form of submission Registered Reports (see below). NFS Journal is a forum for research in the following areas: • Understanding the role of dietary factors (macronutrients and micronutrients, phytochemicals, bioactive lipids and peptides etc.) in disease prevention and maintenance of optimum health • Prevention of diet- and age-related pathologies by nutritional approaches • Advances in food technology and food formulation (e.g. novel strategies to reduce salt, sugar, or trans-fat contents etc.) • Nutrition and food genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics • Identification and characterization of food components • Dietary sources and intake of nutrients and bioactive compounds • Food authentication and quality • Nanotechnology in nutritional and food sciences • (Bio-) Functional properties of foods • Development and validation of novel analytical and research methods • Age- and gender-differences in biological activities and the bioavailability of vitamins, minerals, and phytochemicals and other dietary factors • Food safety and toxicology • Food and nutrition security • Sustainability of food production
