## Abstract Glucosinolates and their very highly reactive breakdown products (mainly isothiocyanates = ITC) belong to one of the most important natural toxicants. This paper deals with the interactions of allyl‐, butyl‐, phenyl‐ and benzyl ITC with egg white proteins resulting in the formation of I

Benzyl-ITC (benzyl isothiocyanate) reacts preferentially with amino groups and sulfhydryl side chains of bovine sarcoplasmic proteins to form thiourea and dithiocarbamate derivatives, generally resulting in a decrease in solubility of the derivatives along a wide pH range. Under these conditions, it
## Abstract Egg‐white proteins are extensively utilised as food ingredients due to their unique functional properties. Several attempts have been made in order to improve the functional properties of egg‐white proteins and to identify the optimal formulations for unique food products. Experimental
The interaction of benzyl isothiocyanate (in concentrations of 2.5-250 mg benzyl-ITC g-' protein) with myoglobin leads to the formation of deriv- atives which have been characterised in terms of their solubility, free epsilon amino groups, content of tryptophan and its quenching, as well as their mo
## Abstract The Raman spectra of ovalbumin, ovomucoid, and conalbumin are reported. Spectral shifts in the conformationally sensitive amide I and amide III lines as a result of thermal denaturation indicate the formation of intermolecular β‐ sheets. A medium intensity line at 1260 cm^−1^ in the spe
