Water distribution in maize starch-pea protein gels as determined by a novel confocal laser scanning microscopy image analysis method and its effect on structural and mechanical properties of composite gels
The objective of this study was to determine the water distribution in maize starch (MS) and pea protein isolate (PPI) composite gels and understand how the separate contributions of MS and PPI affect the mechanical properties of composite gels with varying MS/PPI ratios. A series of MS gels with in...
