Molecular dynamics (MD) simulation is a useful technique to study the interaction between
molecules and how they are affected by various processes and processing conditions. This …

Zein as a kind of carrier material has attracted extensive interest, while the interaction
mechanism between zein and nutrients is still elusive. In this work, the binding mechanism …

Background Caseins and whey proteins have great potential for interacting with carotenoids
due to their binding sites with hydrophobic domains. Even if a neglected amount of …

The natural whey protein is unstable, to achieve more efficient utilization, the functional
properties of whey protein were modified by changing its structure, and enzymatic cross …

This study systematically investigated the binding mechanism between capsaicin (CAP) and
β-lactoglobulin (β-lg) through the method of multi-spectroscopic, thermodynamics, molecular …

Riboflavin (RF) is a vitamin that only exists in plants and microorganisms and must be
procured externally by humans. On the other hand, there are two major allergic factors in …

This study aims to investigate the effect of pH levels (pH 7.0 and pH 8.1) on binding ability of
β-lactoglobulin (β-LG) with lycopene (LYC) and elucidate interaction mechanisms using …

The use of highly functional carotenoids from different sources in food industry is limited
mostly because of their poor water-solubility and low thermal stability. To overcome these …

Procyanidins are bioactive polyphenols that have a strong affinity to proteins. Beta-
lactoglobulin (BLG) is widely used as an emulsifier in the food and other industries. This …

Binding of anthocyanin extract from grapes (Fetească neagră variety) by whey protein
isolate was first estimated through fluorescence spectroscopy quenching experiments. The …
