This study investigates the effects of varying heat stress temperatures (56 °C to 76 °C) on the gel characteristics of egg white protein. The results indicate that when the heat stress temperature exceeds 60 °C, the textural properties, water-holding capacity, and freeze-thaw stability of egg white gel (EWG) decrease to varying extents compared to untreated EWG. At 76 °C, the proportion of free water in EWG increases from 0.

This study involves the preparation of glycosylation products of egg white protein (EWP) through saccharification at high temperatures in the presence of fructooligosaccharides (FO). The resulting glycation products of EWP were employed to create colloidal particles, forming HIPEs, which were further utilized to induce the formation of HIPEs gels (HIPEs-Gs).

The quality changes of WEP were evaluated in PA, C-PA and PE-PP-Al packaging for 35 days at 60 °C in accelerated storage. The results indicate that among the three packaging materials, PE-PP-Al exhibits the highest barrier properties, effectively inhibiting moisture loss, caking, reduced solubility, oxidative deterioration, and decreased thermal stability in WEP.

Monitoring and controlling the freezing process and thermal properties of foods is an important means to understand and maintain product quality. Saccharides were used in this study to regulate the gelation of liquid egg yolks induced by freeze‒thawing; the selected saccharides included sucrose, L-arabinose, xylitol, trehalose, D-cellobiose, and xylooligosaccharides. The regulatory effects of saccharides on frozen egg yolks were investigated by characterizing their thermal and rheological properties and structural changes.
