A sodium alginate-dual-protein double-network gel based on whey protein isolate and Tiger nut protein: Preparation, characterization and its sustained release properties of curcumin.
This study developed a sodium alginate-tiger nut protein/whey protein isolate double-network gel, and its sustained-release properties for curcumin were investigated. A series of sodium alginate (SA) concentrations (0-0.3%) were screened, and 0.25% SA was determined as the optimal level, which yielded superior gel hard...
