Abstract

The microwave field influence on the physicochemical properties of collagen and gelatin was studied. It is shown that when microwave field acts on the studied protein samples, a change in the molecules structure formation occurs. It was experimentally established that microwave exposure leads to the structural modification of collagen and gelatin molecules. This modification is accompanied by a change in the physicochemical properties of the studied biopolymers. It is shown that microwave field exposure leads to a decrease in the viscosity of collagen and gelatin solutions. A decrease in viscosity indicates that there’s a structural or transient processes occurring in protein molecules.The kinetics of swelling with time for collagen and gelatin samples was studied. It is shown that the use of a microwave field leads to a decrease in the rate constant of swelling. The swelling degree of the studied samples decreases on average by 60%. It is shown that isoelectric points of the proteins are shifted (pI from 5 to 6 for collagen and up to 5.5 for gelatin).

Highlights

  • The microwave field influence on the physicochemical properties of collagen and gelatin was studied

  • Уменьшение молекулярной массы после микроволнового воздействия до 1506 г/моль для коллагена и 708 г/моль для желатина, подтверждает предположение об изменении структурообразования молекул белка при воздействии микроволнового поля – возможно за счет удаления избыточной части гидратационной воды биополимеров

  • Что микроволновое воздействие приводит к структурной модификации молекул коллагена и желатина, которая сопровождается изменением физикохимических свойств биополимеров: значительному уменьшению величины вязкости растворов биополимеров; уменьшению степени набухания белков в среднем на 60 %; смещению изоэлектрических точек в более щелочную область

Summary

Introduction

The microwave field influence on the physicochemical properties of collagen and gelatin was studied. Целью работы является изучение влияния микроволнового поля на физико-химические свойства коллагена и желатина. Для исследования реологических свойств образцов коллагена и желатина готовили рабочие растворы в интервале концентраций (0,25-2%) по методике [8]. Для сравнения были приготовлены растворы из промышленных образцов коллагена и желатина аналогичных концентраций.
