Abstract:
Egg white (EW) is required to be reduced in viscosity and particle size prior to chromatographic fractionation of single EW proteins. This study reports on an assessment of various shear devices for this purpose. Evaluation criteria for the head-to-head comparison of high-pressure homogenization, colloid mill, and toothed disc dispersing machine treatment were the achieved viscosity reduction as well as the network diminution, determined by particle size measurements. It was shown that each of t...     »
