This study aimed to investigate the effect of Abelmoschus manihot gum (AMG) on the water retention capacity of low-salt myofibrillar protein (MP) gel by analysing its aggregation behaviour and conformational changes during heating (30-80 °C). The results revealed that AMG significantly increased the water holding capacity and facilitated the formation of a more uniform gel network structure in low-salt MP gel (P < 0.05).

The results revealed that SDF addition can significantly improve the cooking yield and texture characteristics of phosphate-free frankfurters (P < 0.05), and 1.

The results showed that the incorporation of SDF obviously promote the textural parameters of phosphate-free frankfurters, which was effectively verified by scanning electron microscopy. Meanwhile, SDF effectively retarded lipid oxidation of phosphate-free frankfurters during storage (P < 0.

In general, protein aggregation gradually increased with increasing ethanol level in a dose-dependent manner, which was implied by notably increased turbidity and gradually decreased solubility. The formation of aggregates, which were confirmed by the results of circular dichroism spectrum and total sulfhydryl content, were promoted mainly through disulfide bonds and intra-molecular hydrogen bonds.

The results showed that MCPHSC could be used as an ideal phosphates replacer for obviously decreasing the cooking loss and promoting textural and gel properties of reduced-phosphates frankfurters (P < 0.05), which was verified by scanning electron microscopy.

The results proved that changes in levels of adsorbed proteins induced by different ionic strengths could obviously affect the occurrence of protein-lipid co-oxidation. The level of oxidative stress was higher in adsorbed proteins extracted from control sample than in those extracted from emulsions with 300 or 400 mM ionic strengths.

The results revealed that CaCl significantly enhanced the particle size, interfacial layer thickness, apparent viscosity, and viscoelastic behavior of filled hydrogels and decreased their light and whiteness values ( < 0.05).

Our results indicated that moderate MCPSSC addition (4%) resulted in the strongest inhibition of textural quality deficits in reduced-phosphates frankfurters, which was confirmed via scanning electron microscopy. Moreover, although some differences were perceived in the sensorial parameters and flavour profile of reduced-phosphate frankfurters prepared with MCPSSC, all of them were deemed acceptable.

The emulsion-based products were made by mixing 2% (w/v) prepared lipid droplets that were stabilized by either native or heated whey proteins, 0.01% (w/v) flaxseed gum and 0-6.
