Comparative study of the structural and functional properties of protein isolates prepared from edible vegetable leaves

Isoelectric precipitation was used to produce protein isolates (>90% protein contents) from three edible vegetable leaves. Amaranth (ALI), eggplant (ELI) and fluted pumpkin (FLI) leaf protein were isolated to study their conformational structures. Intrinsic fluorescence indicated a loose structur...
