“Ultrasound treatment accelerates mass transfer during hydration with minimal impact on bioactive components.”
ultrasound processing → accelerates → mass transfer during hydration
“High-intensity ultrasound processing is an energy-efficient technology that can be used to modify food products physically and chemically. It can be used to enhance the extraction, functionality, and sensory attributes of plant proteins, as well as to improve their digestibility.”
high-intensity ultrasound processing → enhances → digestibility of plant proteins
“Modification of pseudocereal proteins by heat treatment, enzymatic hydrolysis, high pressure or ultrasound processing can further enhance these techno-functional properties as well as their emulsion properties and stability.”
pseudocereal proteins → can be modified by → heat treatment, enzymatic hydrolysis, high pressure or ultrasound processing
“High ultrasound power and strong intensity can effectively change the onset temperature and enthalpy of rice starch”
ultrasound processing → changes onset temperature → onset temperature
“High ultrasound power and strong intensity can effectively change the onset temperature and enthalpy of rice starch”
