A study has been conducted to evaluate the effect of pomegranate peel extract (PPE) (1, 2 and 3%) on physico-chemical and functional attributes of whey powder such as total phenolic content (TPC), flavonoid, proanthocyanidin, alkaloid, antioxidant activity, colour profile, protein-polyphenol interaction, rheology, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), moisture adsorption isotherm (MAI) and microstructure. The TPC (1.02–27.80 mg/g), flavonoid (1.08–10.93 mg/g), proanthocyanidin (0.62–5.82 mg/g), alkaloid (0.63–2.28%), antioxidant activity (ABTS, 16.61–88.01%; DPPH, 17.02–49.34%), redness (2.33–8.05) and yellowness (27.77–32.24) were increased significantly (P |
