Recent advances in modified food proteins by high intensity ultrasound for enhancing functionality: Potential mechanisms, combination with other methods, equipment innovations and future directions.

ABSTRACT: High intensity ultrasound (HIU) is an efficient and green technology that has recently received enormous research attention for modification of food proteins. However, there are still several knowledge gaps in the possible mechanisms, synergistic effects of HIU with other strategies and improvement of HIU equipment that contribute to its application in the food industry. This review focuses on the recent research progress on the effects and potential mechanisms of HIU on the structure (including secondary and tertiary structure) and functionality (including solubility, emulsibility, foamability, and gelability) of proteins. Furthermore, the combination methods and innovations of HIU equipment for proteins modification in recent years are also detailed. Meanwhile, the possible future trends
