Determination of functional property (Foaming property) of protein
Requirements (Instruments, Chemicals & Other) :
- Protein isolates powder
- Beaker
- Analytical Balance
- Whipping machine
- Measuring cylinder
- Distilled water
Procedure :
- Weigh 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2 and 2.5 gm protein isolate powder in five different beakers and marked as S1, S2, S3, S4 and S5, respectively.
- Pour 50 ml water in each beaker.
- Whip the solutions for 2 minutes.
- Transfer the dispersion of each beaker into the five different measuring cylinders and measure foam volume.
- Measure foam volume of each sample after 60 min.
- Record in observation table and calculate using following formulae:
