Gelatin as texture modifier and porogen in egg white hydrogel

Babaei, Jamal, Mohammadian, Mehdi, Madadlou, Ashkan·2019·Food Chemistry

Abstract

In the present study, composite egg white/gelatin hydrogels were produced and their porosity was increased through the subsequent removal of gelatin by leaching into water. The composite gel with 0.5% gelatin showed a higher degree of swelling than did the control gelatin-free sample after 60 min of immersion in an aqueous medium which was ascribed to the formation of capillary channels due to gelatin leaching. The composite gel containing 0.3% gelatin showed the highest water-holding capacity and firmness indices among all samples. Gel porosity decreased with increasing gelatin content. However, after gelatin depletion, higher concentrations of gelatin yielded hydrogels with higher porosity, as confirmed by scanning electron microscopy. Based on Fourier transform infra-red spectroscopy, it was concluded that the count of hydrogen bonds decreased after gelatin depletion. X-ray diffraction analysis indicated that intermolecular interaction between gelatin and egg white proteins had taken place in the amorphous phase.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
