Solubility, surface properties, overrun, foam stability, apparent viscosity, and emulsification properties were evaluated for 3% protein dispersions of deamidated wheat protein (DWP), sodium caseinate (SC), soy protein isolate (SPI), and whey protein isolate (WPI). DWP dispersion had the highest apparent viscosity, 25% higher emulsion activity index (EAI), and 82% higher emulsion stability index (ESI) when compared to SPI dispersions. Dispersions of DWP had similar foaming properties and surface properties when compared to SC, but had 50% higher EAI and 1000% greater ESI when compared to the 2 dairy proteins. The utilization of DWP could be expanded into liquid food systems currently using dairy proteins.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
