7. Functional Properties of Quinoa Protein Isolate

1. Solubility.

The solubility of quinoa protein is related to the hydrophilic and hydrophobic interactions of the protein and the type of solvent.

The solubility of quinoa protein, which is an acidic protein, increases significantly with increasing p H. The solubility reaches a maximum at p H 10, and similar changes are observed for proteins from soybeans and some cereals.

2. Foaming property and foam stability.

Quinoa protein has high foaming property and foam stability, and the foaming property of quinoa protein increased significantly with the increase of quinoa protein concentration (p < 0.05).

3. Emulsifying property and emulsification stability.

Emulsifiability and emulsification stability are also one of important functional properties of proteins, which have an important impact on the sensory, flavor, and texture of foods.

Quinoa protein has good emulsifying stability but poor emulsification ability.
