The rheological analysis suggested that RS3s enhanced the elastic and viscous modulus of yogurt, and that microwave-heated RS was the most effective for improving viscoelasticity. Fitting the creep data using the Burger model showed that yogurt with microwave-heated RS increased the structural strength of yogurt, which displayed the highest instantaneous and viscoelastic deformations. The confocal laser scanning microscopy and scanning electron microscopy micrographs demonstrated that autoclaved and debranched RS3s formed large fragments and dis-rupted the continuity of the milk protein structure; however, microwave-heated RS evenly filled the gel network and formed an interpenetrating network with proteins. The bacterial count and acidity of yogurt indicated that microwave-heated and debranched RS3s promoted the growth of lactic acid bacteria and accelerated the fermentation process of yogurt. The results of this study demonstrated that microwave-heated RS is a favorable supplement to the microstructure and rheological properties of yogurt compared with autoclaved and debranched RS3s. 收起
