Thermal properties of isoelectric pH precipitated isolate (ISO), and membrane isolated proteins from alkaline (MEM_NaOH) and salt (MEM_NaCl) solution extracts obtained using differential scanning calorimetry *.
| Sample | Onset To (°C) | Maximum Tp (°C) | Area ∆H (J/g of Sample) |
|---|---|---|---|
| ISO | 86.43 ± 0.49 a | 90.66 ± 0.10 | 0.16 ± 0.09 b |
| MEM_NaOH | 86.19 ± 0.13 b | 90.72 ± 0.12 | 0.19 ± 0.04 b |
| MEM_NaCl | 85.86 ± 0.34 c | 90.90 ± 0.06 a | 0.34 ± 0.00 a |
* To, onset of denaturation temperature; Tp, peak temperature of denaturation. For each column, mean values with different letters are significantly different (p < 0.05).
