Abstract

The demand for processed foods with high content of protein is increasing globally. Food processing affects physical, chemical as well as functional properties of nutrients. In the present review article, certain changes like proteolysis, protein cross-linking, amino acid racemization and Maillard reaction that occur during food processing and storage affecting the textural and nutritional qualities of protein-rich foods have been outlined.

Keywords: Protein; Proteolysis; Racemization; Functional Properties
