Insights into microalgae residue-derived protein-polysaccharide complex as a plant-based egg white foam alternative: chemical characteristics and interfacial behaviors.

Spirulina residues contain various active substances, but is often discarded. In this study, Spirulina residues extract (SWE) demonstrated excellent foaming properties, with a foam overrun of 6.91 L/L, surpassing egg white and other plant proteins. SWE is a polysaccharide-protein complex rich in nonpolar amino acids an...
