Thermal Behavior of Bio-related Material Gel in Low Water Content

Abstract: We have already reported that the transition behavior of NIPA (700mM) gel is complicated in low water contents (w c ) ranging from 0.01 to 1.7. The thermogram shows a glass transition, an endothermic peak around 34 o C and peaks related to the melting and recrystallization of water. In the present study, the sol-gel transition behavior of egg-white in low water contents (w c = 0.1-1.8) was studied by differential scanning calorimetry. Moreover, the thermal behavior of the gels were intensively studied. In a so… Show more

“…This gap is ascribable to the vitrification bound water and network of albumin. We have already reported the heat of fusion of water in egg-white gels as shown in figure 6(b) [13]. In this case, the free water disappears at w c = 0.4, above w c = 0.4, the amount of free water increases linearly up to w c = 0.9 and then above w c = 0.9, the heat of fusion increases parallel to solid line.…”

“…This seems to be due to a changing denaturing mechanism of the albumin greatly with very high concentration below w c = 0.64. In the egg-white sol, three endothermic peaks were observed in the sol-gel transition process [13]. Here, the peak e of the albumin roughly corresponds to the endothermic peak of the high temperature side of the egg-white.…”
