  • Title: Effects of riboflavin photosensitization on the changes of isoflavones in soymilk.
    Author: Lee SW, Chang PS, Lee JH.
    Journal: J Food Sci; 2008 Sep; 73(7):C551-5. PubMed ID: 18803701.
    Abstract:
    Effects of riboflavin photosensitization on the distribution of isoflavones in commercially available soymilk were analyzed using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Total isoflavones (TI) in soymilk with riboflavin (1000 ppm, w/v) under light were significantly different from those stored in the dark for 24 h (P < 0.05), while TI in samples with 0 and 1000 ppm added riboflavin were not significant from each other in dark conditions (P > 0.05). To test the effects of the concentration of riboflavin on TI, soymilk was mixed with riboflavin to make 0, 100, 250, and 500 ppm (w/v) and stored under light at 25 degrees C for 24 h. TI in soymilk with 100 ppm riboflavin under light significantly decreased by 13.5% for 24 h (P < 0.05) compared to control samples and were not significantly different from those with 250 or 500 ppm samples (P > 0.05). Daidzin and genistin were predominant isoflavones in soymilk, and the rate of photo degradation of genistin was higher than that of daidzin for 24 h in soymilk under riboflavin photosensitization.
