Plant proteins self-assembly into amyloid fibrils is a promising modification to be introduced in emerging food and materials applications. Although the valorization of protein-rich side …
Amyloid functional materials from amyloid fibril building blocks, produced in vitro from amyloidogenic natural proteins or synthetic peptides, show diverse functionalities ranging …
The development towards a sustainable society requires a radical change of many of the materials we currently use. Besides the replacement of plastics, derived from petrochemical …
Amyloid fibrils from plant-based food protein sources bear a large unexploited potential for applications in food and other biomaterials due to their techno-functional features. However …
