2004 journal article

Cross-linking and rheological changes of whey proteins treated with microbial transglutaminase

JOURNAL OF AGRICULTURAL AND FOOD CHEMISTRY, 52(5), 1170–1176.

By: V. Truong n, D. Clare, G. Catignani n & H. Swaisgood n

author keywords: whey protein; immobilized transglutaminase; transglutaminase; protein cross-linking; electrophoresis; Western blots; rheology
MeSH headings : Adsorption; Bacteria / enzymology; Cross-Linking Reagents; Enzymes, Immobilized; Milk Proteins / chemistry; Milk Proteins / metabolism; Rheology; Transglutaminases / metabolism; Whey Proteins
TL;DR: Interestingly, the gelling point of WPI solutions increased from 68 to 94 degrees C after a 4-h reaction, and the gel strength was drastically decreased, suggesting that a process could be developed to produce heat-stable whey proteins for various food applications. (via Semantic Scholar)
