Background: Soy protein isolate (SPI) is widely used in the food industry because of its nutritional and functional properties. During food processing and storage, the interaction with co-existing sugars can cause changes in the structural and functional properties of SPI. In this study, SPI-l-arabinose conjugate (SPI:Ara) and SPI-d-galactose conjugate (SPI:Gal) were prepared using Maillard reaction (MR), and the effects of five-carbon/six-carbon sugars on the structural information and function of SPI were compared.

The impact of phenolic acid on the antioxidant activity of SSPS was evaluated. Then, films were prepared by using phenolic acid-grafted SSPS.

Then the CA-g-CS conjugated films (CA-g-CS I, CA-g-CS II, and CA-g-CS III) and the CA-CS incorporated films (CA-CS I, CA-CS II, and CA-CS III) with equivalent chlorogenic acid content were prepared, respectively. The physical, mechanical, and biological properties of CA-g-CS conjugated and CA-CS incorporated films were evaluated.
