Modifying Structure–Functionality of Common Bean ( Phaseolus vulgaris L.) Protein via Cold Atmospheric Plasma Processing and Maillard Reaction
Structural and functional modifications of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) protein were investigated using cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) and Maillard reaction (MR) with pectin. CAP treatment (20 kV, 1–5 min) significantly enhanced protein solubility and emulsifying activity. Conversely, MR (90 °C, 0.5–3 h) reduce...
