“…The pH 8.0 ovotransferrin shows a denaturation temperature of 62°C and an enthalpy of 9.1 J/g (Table 1), which agrees with previous results of denaturation temperatures ranging from 60 to 64°C (Ibrahim, 2000;Mizutani, Chen, Yamashita, Hirose, & Aibara, 2006;Van Der Plancken et al, 2007a). The denaturation temperature of ovotransferrin shifted from 62.0°C (control) to 66.5°C (500 MPa), while the enthalphy decreased from 9.14 J/g (control) to 3.61 J/g (500 MPa), indicating a loss of protein structural integrity.…”
