Overview

This review demonstrates extraction methods influence molecular structure and functionality in pea protein isolates, suggesting new applications in functional food and nutraceuticals.

Key Points

  • Pea protein isolates show improved functionality through specified extraction and structural modifications, enhancing usability in food products.
  • Enzymatic hydrolysis and transglutaminase cross-linking are key processes linked to hydrocolloid properties and emulsification capacities.
  • The review assesses isolation procedures, including alkaline extraction and fermentation methods, highlighting their impact on bioactive peptides and sustainable applications.
  • Integrating extraction with structure-guided engineering strategies may close gaps in functionality compared to animal proteins.
