“…Wagner, Sorgentini, and Añón (2000) and Añón, Sorgentini, and Wagner (2001) found marked differences in solubility and structural properties between soy protein isolates obtained in the laboratory and commercial isolates, which were attributed to the effects of the industrial process, such as drying at high protein concentrations or in the presence of salts. While some published studies have focused on the operating variables during the preparation of sunflower protein products at pilot plant scale (Castor-Normandin, Ducastaing, Prevot, & Raymond, 1984;Lawhon, Glass, Manak, & Lusas, 1982;Weisz, Schneider, Schweiggert, Kammerer, & Carle, 2010), the impact of different processes on the structural and functional properties of the products was not analyzed in spite of importance of such knowledge for redesigning some of these processes. In addition, proteins may also suffer changes in their properties according to the storage conditions and duration.…”
