Abstract

ABSTRACTOil-in-water emulsions (60% oil (w/w)) were prepared using whey protein aggregates as the sole emulsifying agent. The effects of whey protein aggregate size (the diameter between 0.92 and 10.9 µm), the pH of emulsions (4–8.6) and storage time on physical properties, droplet size, and stability of emulsions were investigated. The results indicate that increment of whey protein aggregate size caused an increase in the firmness, droplet size, and viscosity of emulsions, and also a decrease in the emulsion creaming. The emulsion viscosity, firmness, and droplet size were reduced by increasing the emulsion pH; however, the creaming process was accelerated. Viscosity, creaming, and droplet size of emulsions were increased slightly during 21 days storage at 40°C.
