✦ Synopsis
Recent advances on protein–polysaccharide electrostatic complex and coacervates' formation, structure and properties are presented. The first section emphasises on the thermodynamics of complexes formation, the contribution of enthalpic and entropic effects is specifically discussed. Then, their structure is described at different length scales and recent findings on the phase-ordering dynamics of complex and coacervates formation are covered. Finally, the most relevant functional properties of protein–polysaccharide complexes and coacervates for food applications are described.

A study has been made of surface pressure (pi) and maximum shear stress (Ps) (at a constant shear rate) of decane-water interface on which bovine serum albumin (BSA) and its complexes with dextran sulfate (DS) were adsorbed. The pi values have been monitored by the Wilhelmy plate technique. The Ps v
