Ultrasound-assisted alkaline proteinase extraction enhances the yield of pecan protein and modifies its functional properties
To enhance the extraction yield of pecan protein and modify its functional properties, this study investigated whether both ultrasound and enzyme have a synergistic impact on the extraction of pecan (Carya illinoinensis (Wangenh.) K. Koch) protein. The highest protein extraction rate (25.51%) was ob...

To enhance the extraction yield of pecan protein and modify its functional properties, this study investigated whether both ultrasound and enzyme have a synergistic impact on the extraction of pecan (Carya illinoinensis (Wangenh.)

Owing to its high shear, mechanical energy and cavitation, the ultrasound process increased the solubility of the substrate making it readily accessible to the enzyme, thereby accelerating the chemical reaction and improving the yield of the protein. The optimized ultrasound-assisted enzymatic method (400 W, 20 kHz, 5 s/3s) effectively changed the secondary and tertiary structure of the pecan protein.
