Physical and emulsifying properties of pea protein: influence of combined physical modification by flaxseed gum and ultrasonic treatment by Jia Yang, Fenghong Huang, Qingde Huang, Da Ma, Yashu Chen, Dengfeng Peng, Xiao Yu, Qianchun Deng, Fang Geng

“…The results showed FG triggered the formation of loosely attached complex with PP via physical modification under gentle magnetic stirring at pH 7.0, while ultrasound played an important role in reducing protein size, increasing surface hydrophobicity and molecular fluidity onto oil-water interface. So ultrasound further enhanced the interaction of PP with FG, and produced the PPFGU complex with smaller droplet size, higher ζ-potential and lower turbidity. …”
