Mechanical Properties, Microstructure, and In Vitro Digestion of Transglutaminase-Crosslinked Whey Protein and Potato Protein Hydrolysate Composite Gels.

ABSTRACT: The production of animal protein usually leads to higher carbon emissions than that of plant protein. To reduce carbon emissions, the partial replacement of animal protein with plant protein has attracted extensive attention; however, little is known about using plant protein hydrolysates as a substitute. The potential application of 2 h-alcalase hydrolyzed potato protein hydrolysate (PPH) to displace whey protein isolate (WPI) during gel formation was demonstrated in this study. The effect of the ratios (8/5, 9/4, 10/3, 11/2, 12/1, and 13/0) of WPI to PPH on the mechanical properties, microstructure, and digestibility of composite WPI/PPH gels was investigated. Increasing the WPI ratio could improve the storage modulus (G') and loss modulus (G″) of composite gels. The springiness of gels
