초록

This study investigated the effect of ultrasound (20–60 min, 40 kHz, 280 W) on the structural, physicochemical, and emulsifying properties of aquafaba extracted from various legumes (chickpea [CH], yellow soybean [YSB], black soybean [BSB], small black bean [SBB]). The hydrophobic amino acids and protein secondary structures (α-helix, random coil) significantly increased with sonication time (p < 0.05). The particle size of aquafaba was reduced by ultrasound (p < 0.05). A total of 27 volatile compounds were identified. Most volatiles increased with sonication time, and beany flavor was lowest in CH and SBB. The EAI, ESI, adsorbed proteins, and zeta-potential increased, while emulsion droplet size decreased in all legumes by ultrasound. The overall emulsifying properties were the highest in SBB sonicated for 40 min. This study discusses the applicability of ultrasound to aquafaba and provides insights into the functional properties and potential of aquafaba as a plant-based natural emulsifier © 2023
