    Proteini mišića Humboldtove lignje (Dosidicus gigas) imaju ograničenu primjenu u želatiniranim proizvodima zbog slabe funkcionalnosti. Svrha je ovoga rada bila ispitati utjecaj dodatka prirodnog, komercijalno dostupnog vlakna, i to amidiranog pektina s malim udjelom metoksila (0,5; 1,0; 1,5; 2,0 i 3,0 %), na fizikalno-kemijska i funkcionalna svojstva gelova dobivenih od plašta Humboldtove lignje (Dosidicus gigas). Dodatkom 0,5 % vlakana opažen je trenutni učinak na teksturu gela, i to na poboljšanje tvdoće (p<0,05) od (3,4±0,7) N u kontrolnom uzorku (bez dodatka vlakana) do (5,2±0,9) N, te elastičnosti (p≥0,05). Posmična sila bila je značajna samo pri dodatku 3,0 % vlakana. Dodatak vlakana također je poboljšao sposobnost vezivanja vode (p<0,05), i to sa 75 % u kontrolnom uzorku na 90-95 % na kraju pokusa. Dodatak od 3,0 % vlakana utjecao je na bjelinu. Diferencijalnom su motridbenom kalorimetrijom pronađena dva endotermna prijelaza u gelovima. Dodatak vlakana povećao je drugi pik (aktin) (p<0,05) za 1-2 ºC. Stoga je zaključeno da ispitivanje potvrđuje da je amidirani pektin s malim udjelom metoksila odličan dodatak za poboljšanje funkcionalnosti proteina mišića Humboldtove lignje, jer pozitivno utječe na teksturu dobivenih gelova i njihovu sposobnost zadržavanja vode.Jumbo squid (Dosidicus gigas) muscle proteins show low functionality with limited use in gel products. This work aims to assess the influence of adding the natural and commercially available fibre, amidated low-methoxyl pectin (at 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 and 3.0 %), on the physicochemical and functional characteristics of jumbo squid (Dosidicus gigas) mantle muscle gels. The addition of 0.5 % fibre showed an immediate effect on the gel texture profile analysis, improving hardness (p<0.05) from (3.4±0.7) N of the control (no added fibre) to (5.2±0.9) N, and increasing elasticity (p≥0.05). Shear force was significant only at 3.0 % fibre addition. Water holding capacity also improved (p<0.05) with fibre addition (from 75 % in the control to 90–95 % aft er the treatments). Whiteness was affected (p<0.05) when 3.0 % fibre was added. Differential scanning calorimetry showed two endothermic transition peaks in the gels. The second peak (actin) increased (p<0.05) by 1–2 °C with fibre addition. Therefore, the present study demonstrates that amidated low-methoxyl pectin (0.5–3.0 %) is an excellent ingredient to improve jumbo squid mantle muscle protein functionality, increasing the gel texture and water retention characteristics
