Notes:
Maleylation, succinylation, dimethylglutarylation, and sodium sulfite treatment of cottonseed flour increased protein extraction from the flour in suspension, and precipitated more protein in the extract at pH 4.0, compared to unmodified flour processed through conventional methods. However, acetylation decreased protein extraction and precipitation at this pH. Protein isolates from succinylated, maleylated and dimethylglutarylated flours were highly water-soluble, and did not coagulate by heating. Acetylation decreased heat coagulability of the resulting protein isolate, but did not affect water solubility of the isolate. Treatment of the flour with sodium sulfite markedly increased heat coagulability of the isolate, and decreased its solubility. Oil absorption capacity of the isolate was increased slightly by dimethylglutarylation, but other treatments did not affect the capacity significantly. Sensitivity of proteins in isolates to calcium ions was not affected by acylation or sodium sulfite treatment of the flour.
