INFLUENCE OF pH, SOME CHLORIDE AND PHOSPHATES ON EMULSIFYING AND SOLUBILITY PROPERTIES OF CASHEW KERNEL (Anacardium occidentale) PROTEIN ISOLATE
Abstract
Effect of pH, NaCl, KCI, KH2PO4 or NaH2PO4 on solubility and emulsifying properties of cashew (Anacardium occidentale L.) protein isolate (CPI) were determined. The emulsifying properties of CPI were assessed turbidimetrically. Maximum soluble protein observed at pH 2 and pH 12 media were 62 and 95%, respectively. CPI solubility in NaCl, KCI, KH2PO4 or NaH2PO4 solutions were better than in H2O. This solubility is salt concentration dependent. pH 5 gave a better emulsion activity {EA} than other pH values. Its emulsion appeared stable at pH 2, 11 or 12. CPI stabilized oil-in-water emulsion has longer shelf life at low chloride and phosphate concentrations (0.1 - 0.4mol/dm3). EA of CPI in NaCl, KCl, NaH2PO4 or KH2PO4 showed positive correlation with solubility.
