Instant noodles enriched with ultrasound-modified whey protein (WP) were characterized for physical, technological, rheological, cooking, thermal, in vitro protein digestibility (), morphological, and sensory attributes to access the compatibility of ultrasound for actual food matrix. Semolina with sonicated WP (SWP) showed significantly ( < .05) higher water absorption capacity (1.

The recovery of bioactive compounds is a big challenge and its use in food industry to develop functional foods is a promising area of research. Various techniques are available for the extraction of these bioactives but due to their thermolabile nature, there is demand for nonthermal or green technologies which can lower the cost of operation and decrease operational time and energy consumption as compared to conventional methods.

In the present study, the impact of ultrasound on whey protein (WP) was assessed with functional, rheological, heat coagulation and transition temperature, SDS-PAGE, FTIR spectra, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The results of this study showed that the raw WP had broad bimodal particle size distribution while after ultrasonication, modified WP exhibited narrower distribution along with smaller particle size (0.
