Abstract
This study investigated the grafting chlorogenic acid (CA) onto myosin, utilizing various techniques including conventional method, ultrasound, microwave, and combination of ultrasound and microwave (UM). The grafting efficiency was as follows: conventional method < microwave < ultrasound < UM. The UM technique manifested the highest CA-binding capacity (80.26 μmol/g myosin) through covalent bonding, and a much shorter time was required for conjugation than conventional method. The conjugation of polyphenol significantly increased the solubility of myosin with reduced aggregation behavior, which was accompanied by structural alterations from ordered structures (α-helix and β-sheet) to disordered forms. The emulsion stabilized by UM-myosin-CA conjugate exhibited the most homogeneous microstructure with favorable creaming stability. Moreover, the resulting emulsion presented strong oxidation resistance and storage stability. These results illustrate the promising potential of employing CA-grafted myosin, especially when processed using the UM technique, in the development of highly efficient emulsifiers.
