This project used a model system to describe the effects of extraction and heat on the binding of hexanal (Hex), hexyl acetate (HxAc) and 2-octanone (2-Oct) to pea protein isolate and to evaluate any resulting change in protein functionality.engpea protein isolatevolatile compoundhexanal2-octanonehexyl acetatedifferential scanning calorimetrygelationheadspace gas chromatographyPea protein - volatile compound interactions: effects of binding, heat and extraction on protein functionalitymaster thesis
