Edible films of gum tragacanth (GT) with whey protein were fabricated to see how the incorporation of GT influenced whey protein based film properties. Whey protein isolate (WPI) was replaced with GT at different ratios as 0.5, 1, 1.5 and 2% of WPI. Optical, mechanical, permeability and microstructural properties, as well as moisture sorption and solubility behavior of films were measured. The findings indicated that combination of WPI and GT in film formulation led to less strength, more flexible, less soluble films with lower permeability to water and with higher opacity. The results suggested that the addition of GT to WPI could lead to obtain modified WPI based edible films with desirable properties.

Physico-Chemical Changes of Composite Whey Protein Hydrogels in Simulated Gastric Fluid Conditions
Özel, Barış; GRUNIN, Leonid; Öztop, Halil Mecit (2018-09-12)
Polysaccharide blended whey protein isolate (WPI) hydrogels were developed for the delivery of black carrot (Daucus carota) concentrate as bioactive agent in simulated gastric fluid (SGF). Pectin (PC), gum tragacanth (GT), and xanthan gum (XG) were blended as additional polymers to modulate the release characteristics of the WPI hydrogels. Experiments showed that sole whey protein (C), XG, and GT blended hydrogels possessed restricted release profiles 67%, 61%, and 67%, respectively, whereas PC samples atta...
Removal of a model protein foulant from metal surfaces
Xin, H; CHEN, XİAO DONG; Özkan, Necati (2004-08-01)
Using precoated whey protein concentrate gel films as a model milk protein fouling material, the removal kinetics from the inner surface of a stainless steel tube were determined continuously and noninvasively by a rapid UV spectrophotometric method. The influences of temperature, flow velocity, and the amount of fouling on the cleaning behavior were evaluated. For the first time, a cleaning model combining polymer dissolution and boundary layer mass transfer has been used to describe the cleaning process. ...
Encapsulation of Caffeic Acid in Carob Bean Flour and Whey Protein-Based Nanofibers via Electrospinning
Zeren, Sema; Şahin, Serpil; Şümnü, Servet Gülüm (2022-07-01)
The purpose of this study was to introduce caffeic acid (CA) into electrospun nanofibers made of carob flour, whey protein concentrate (WPC), and polyethylene oxide (PEO). The effects of WPC concentration (1% and 3%) and CA additions (1% and 10%) on the characteristics of solutions and nanofibers were investigated. The viscosity and electrical conductivity of the solutions were examined to determine characteristics of solutions. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric ...

Encapsulation of grape seed extract in rye flour and whey protein-based electrospun nanofibers
Aslaner, Gizem; Şümnü, Servet Gülüm; Şahin, Serpil; Department of Food Engineering (2021-6)
The main objective of this research was to encapsulate grape seed extract (GSE) into electrospun nanofibers produced from different blends of rye flour, whey protein concentrate (WPC) and polyethylene oxide (PEO). The effects of rye flour concentration (4 and 6% (w/v)) and heating methods (conventional and microwave) on the properties of solutions and nanofibers were studied. Rheology results showed that microwave heated solutions containing 6% (w/v) rye flour had higher viscosity. According to the scanning...
