Abstract The comparative study regarding complexes coacervated between Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) and different polysaccharides, Pectin (PEC) and Gum Acacia (GA), was carried out by evaluating the influence of different ratios (protein:polysaccharide) and sodium chloride (NaCl) concentrations on turbidity and zeta potential. The BSA:PEC complexes were formed in a 10:1 ratio whereas BSA:GA at 3:1. The complexation pH showed different behavior, BSA: PEC complexes exhibited maximum turbidity in a wide pH range (4.9 to 1.5), while BSA: GA had maximum turbidity at pH 3.5. The increase in the concentration of NaCl negatively influenced the complexation. The NaCl concentration of 0.40 mol L-1 suppressed the interaction in BSA:PEC (10:1) and reduced the range formation of BSA:GA (3:1). The Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) demonstrated the participation not only of electrostatic interactions, but also of hydrogen bonds in the complexation. This initial study elucidated fundamental aspects about the formation of coacervate complexes between BSA:GA/PEC that assist in directing its application in food products especially, in acidic matrices (pH~4.0) as well as with low concentration of salts, in view of the effect of pH on maximum formation and sensitivity to NaCl. These complexes can be added directly to products in order to add nutritional value or even be used as a new matrix for the encapsulation of bioactive compounds. |
