Nisin, an amphiphilic, antimicrobial peptide, has been shown to integrate into the hydrophobic inner region of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) brush layers; however, the presence of integrated nisin may compromise the protein repulsive character of the PEO layer. In particular, the introduction of fibrinogen to nisin-loaded brush layers has been observed...
The influence of protein adjuncts and variations in pH on the
cook-cool loss, moisture content, and texture of squid gels was
investigated. Break force (P [greater than or equal to] .025), deformation to break (P [greater than or equal to] .01)
and cook-cool loss (P [greater than or equal to]...
