“…PEF processing of whole egg white or isolated egg white proteins (e.g., lysozyme and ovalbumin; Perez & Pilosof, 2004;Zhao & Yang, 2008) has resulted in the exposure of buried SH and hydrophobic groups/regions and even induced the cleavage of S-S bonds (e.g., in lysozyme), consequently leading to protein aggregation (Liu et al, 2018;Wu, Zhao, Yang, et al, 2014;Zhao & Yang, 2012). Recently, PEF has been reported to increase the digestibility of food proteins such as beef, venison, milk, and egg proteins Bhat, Morton, Mason, Jayawardena, et al, 2019;Bhat, Morton, Mason, Jayawardena, et al, 2020;Liu et al, 2018Liu et al, , 2017. Although the structural changes induced by PEF processing have been widely studied in egg proteins, only a few studies have reported the impact of PEF on the digestibility of egg proteins and needs scientific attention.…”
