Abstract

The physical and functional properties of pea and soy bean protein concentrates, and soy bean isolate were investigated. Pea protein concentrate had good lipophilic properties. High fat absorption capacity was confirmed by the small cooking weight losses of meat model systems containing oil and lard. Better functional properties of pea and soy bean protein concentrates in these model systems may be due to specific surface structure, which was evident on the SEM microphotographs. The physical and functional properties of pea protein concentrate were similar to the properties of soy bean concentrate.
