Molecular forces driving protein complexation of lentil and whey proteins: Structure-function relationships of trehalose-conjugated protein complexes on protein digestibility and s... by Mohammad, Alrosan

“…Moreover, the surface properties (surface hydrophobicity and charges) of T-LWPs were significantly modified (P < 0.05), from 457 to 324 a.u and from 36 to −40 mV, respectively. Due to these modifications on the protein structures, the protein digestibility (80–86%) and water solubility (90–94.5%) of T-LWPs increased significantly (P < 0.05) with the increase in the trehalose concentration, from 0 (control) to 5% (w/w), respectively. …”
