Abstract

Abstract Background The use of vegetable proteins is one of the key elements of vegetarian diets. Legumes are an alternative protein source with comparable quality as animal derived proteins, and can be more economical. However, nutritional and technological improvement of legume proteins (LPs) is needed to modify their structure and function. Ultrasound is a promising non-thermal system that has attracted considerable interest worldwide in preparing highly functional LPs. Scope and approach The ultrasonication effect on the improvement of physicochemical (free sulfhydryl content, surface hydrophobicity, surface tension, particle size, turbidity, viscosity and rheology), thermal, microstructure, and techno-functional properties (solubility, water (WHC), and oil (OHC) holding capacity, emulsifying activity index (EAI), emulsion stability index (ESI), foaming capacity (FC) and stability (FS), and gel strength) of pulses and soy protein was comprehensively reviewed. The future research needs, existing challenges, and practical solutions related to the utilization of this green technology in the functionality and enhancement of LPs were also elucidated. Key findings and conclusions High-intensity ultrasonic treatment, as a result of cavitational forces, can reduce the particle size, surface tension, turbidity, and viscosity of LP-based solutions with a significant increase in free sulfhydryl and hydrophobic groups on LPs surface. The partial unfolding and structural changes along with the break-up and re-formation of inter-molecular bonds resulted in different microstructures from large, irregular aggregates to small, uniform particles. A significantly improved solubility, WHC, OHC, EAI, ESI, FC, FS and gel strength was found for most LPs treated with ultrasonication.

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.
