Myofibrillar protein prepared from chicken breast muscle was incubated with several concentrations of glucose or maltose for 6 h at 60 °C and 35% relative humidity in order to obtain glycosylated chicken protein. When the ratio of the weights of the myofibrillar protein and glucose or maltose had respectively reached 1:6 or 1:3-5, the solubility of each type of glycosylated chicken protein in a 0.1 M NaCl solution was exceeded by about 60%, although the myofibrillar protein was insoluble in a low ionic strength solution. Moreover, when the myofibril and maltose reaction (myofibril:maltose = 1:4) was extended to 36 h, the glycosylated protein did not undergo denaturation when held at 50 °C for 2 h, while it also exhibited an antioxidative function against superoxide anion radicals.

The application of cellulose nanofibers (CNF) as cryoprotectants in frozen foods has rarely been explored. In this study, the cryoprotective effect of CNF (2, 4 and 6 % w/w) on mechanically separated chicken meat (MSCM) surimi-like material was investigated, during frozen storage (5 and 60 days) under temperature fluctuation. Surimi-like without cryopreservation agents was more susceptible to protein oxidation due to ice recrystallization.

The present study was performed to investigate the digestive profiles of snakeheads' belly muscles (BM), tail muscles (TM) dorsal muscles (DM), and eye muscles (EM), with further explorations of relevant factors. Kinetic models were adopted to describe the digestion process with crucial parameters. BM showed the highest digestibility and digestive rate, followed by DM, TM, and EM.

Excessive oxidation of protein and lipids in pork leads to quality degradation and loss of nutrients. Kappa-selenocarrageenan (Se-K) can not only be used as a selenium enhancer but also as an antioxidant. To explore potential antioxidants that could be applied to pork, the effect of Se-K on myofibrillar protein (MP) and lipid oxidation was investigated.
