in this study, antimicrobial activity of chitosan and whey protein isolate edible films incorporated with different concentrations of zataria multiflora boiss essential oil ;zeo (1%, 2%, 3% and 4% v/v) and zataria multiflora boiss essential oil nanoliposome (0, 1, 2, 3 and 4%) against  listeria monocytogenes (atcc 19118), bacillus cereus (atcc 11778), staphylococcus aureus (atcc 65138), escheri...

Surface and interfacial activity of whey protein isolate-gellan gum conjugate as a function polymerization degree

Rambutan is a popular fruit widely cultivated in South East Asia. Rambutan seed is a by-product in canned fruit industry. The seed is rich in oil content. Rambutan seed oil contained high level of unsaturated fatty acids which are highly susceptible to microbiological, chemical and biochemical deteriorations. Oil microencapsulation is a popular method to prevent the change of oil quality during...

The effect of using preheated whey protein isolate (WPI) to replace part of the poultry meat proteins in batters formulated with different salt levels was studied. Substitution with 2% preheated whey proteins followed by cold set gelation (16 h at 1 C) significantly (P < 0.05) improved binding and water holding capacity of the raw batters. In the cooked state, WPI substitution reduced cook loss...

The effects of whey protein hydrolysis on film oxygen permeability (OP) and mechanical properties at several glycerol-plasticizer levels were studied. Both 5.5% and 10% degree of hydrolysis (DH) whey protein isolate (WPI) had significant effect (p </= 0.05) on film tensile properties compared to unhydrolyzed WPI. Hydrolyzed WPI required less glycerol to achieve the same mechanical properties co...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Glutathione (GSH) depletion contributes to liver injury and development of steatohepatitis. Undenatured cysteine-rich whey protein isolate has been clinically proven to raise GSH in several patient groups. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of oral supplementation with whey protein on patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). METHODS In an open-label...

Whey proteins are mainly a group of small globular proteins. Their structures can be modified by physical, chemical and other means to improve their functionality. The objectives of this study were to investigate the effect of radiation on proteinprotein interaction, microstructure, and microbiological properties of whey protein-water solutions. Whey protein isolate (WPI) solutions (27-36% prot...

Pure whey protein isolate (WPI)-based cast films are very brittle due to its strong formation of protein cross-linking of disulphide bonding, hydrogen bonding as well as hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions. However, this strong cross-linking is the reason for its final barrier performance. To overcome film brittleness of whey protein layers, plasticisers like glycerol are used. It reduce...
