Thermal processing methods differentially modulate shrimp myofibrillar protein allergenicity through alterations in protein structure and digestive stability.
BACKGROUND Shrimp allergy is a global health concern, yet how common domestic thermal processing methods affect the allergenicity of shrimp myofibrillar protein (MP) remains poorly understood. RESULTS Boiling (100 °C, 10 min) retained the emission maximum of MP despite α-helix loss, whereas steaming (100 °C, 15 min)...
