Preparation and characterization of soybean protein isolate-dextran conjugate-based nanogels.

Soybean protein isolate (SPI)-dextran conjugate-based nanogels were prepared via the Maillard reaction combined with protein self-assembly in this study. The dextran molecular weight (40 kDa), SPI/dextran mass ratio (1:1.75), and incubation time (3.
