“…In food products, protein isolates are used as additives to improve some properties, such as water-binding, foaming, gelation and emulsifying capacities, viscosity and texture. Protein isolates extracted from maize germ (Zayas and Lin, 1989), sesame seed (Lopez et al, 2003), peas (Dagorn et al, 1987), soybean and wheat proteins (Boneldi and Zayas, 1995), have been added as replacements for egg albumin to a variety of food products. To diversify its applicability in different food systems, protein isolates have been used in hydrolysed form.…”
