Performance of egg white and hydroxypropylmethylcellulose mixtures on gelation and foaming

The aims of this research were: i) to investigate phase separation behavior of egg white (EW) and hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC) mixtures at pH 7 (EW natural pH) or 3 (below EW proteins isoelectric point); ii) to study the impact of this segregation on gelation and foaming properties of the mix...
