Functional Properties of Heat‐Treated Egg Yolk Low Density Lipoprotein

ABSTRACT Egg yolk low density lipoprotein (LDL) was heated at various temperatures from 55°C to 100°C for 5 min and transmission, extractability of lipid, emulsifying property and foaming property of each solution were examined. Transmission of LDL solution decreased for treatments above 60°C and was almost 0 at 75°C. Above 70°C, lipid extractability gradually decreased with increase of treatment temperature. Emulsifying property and apparent viscosity were significantly correlated with the extractability of lipid.
