Characterization of coacervation behavior between whey protein isolate and propylene glycol alginate: A morphology, spectroscopy, and thermodynamics study

The interactions between whey protein isolate (WPI) and propylene glycol alginate (PGA) were investigated as a function of pH and the mass ratio. The results showed that WPI and PGA formed a soluble and uniform complex at a mass ratio of 2:1 and pH 4.0 through forces such as electrostatic attraction...
