High-pressure homogenization improves mycoprotein digestibility under an elderly static in vitro digestion model by disrupting cell-wall-related structural barriers.
Mycoprotein, with a balanced amino acid profile and potential benefits for muscle maintenance, is a promising protein source for elderly-friendly high-protein foods. Yet, rigid fungal cell walls and entangled hyphal networks enclosing intracellular proteins may restrict enzymatic accessibility under elderly digestive c...
