| Abstract: | A remarkable improvement in the emulsifying properties of proteins was observed in mixtures of serum albumin-dextran sulfate, lysozyme-dextran sulfate, serum albumin-chondroitin sulfate, α-lactalbumin-chondroitin sulfate and lysozyme-chondroitin sulfate. The emulsifying properties of these protein-polysaccharide complexes were affected by the molecular size of the polysaccharide and by such conditions as the presence of salt, acidic or alkaline pH, and heating. On the other hand, the emulsifying properties of ovalbumin-dextran hybrids prepared by covalent attachment were more enhanced in alkaline pH or by heating. The molecular size of the ovalbumin-dextran hybrids greatly affected the emulsifying properties. |
