Popis: This study investigated the interfacial adsorption and emulsifying performance of glycated β-conglycinin (7S) with D-galactose (Gal) at various times. Results indicated that glycation increased the particle sizes and zeta potentials of glycated 7S by inducing subunit dissociation. Glycation destroyed the tertiary structures and transformed secondary structures from an ordered one to a disordered one, leading to the more flexible structures of glycated 7S compared with untreated 7S. All these results affected the structural unfolding and rearrangement of glycated 7S at the oil/water interface. Therefore, glycated 7S improved interfacial adsorption and formed an interfacial viscoelasticity layer, increasing emulsifying performance to stabilize high internal phase emulsions (HIPE) with self-supportive structures. Furthermore, the solid gel-like network of HIPE stabilized by glycated 7S led to emulsification stability. This result provided new ideas to improve the functional properties of plant proteins by changing the interfacial structure.
