The highest solubility, emulsifying and foaming properties were determined at pH 12. MDCM-P solutions showed non-polyelectrolyte behavior and gelation onset temperature was determined at 36°C. Film-forming properties of MDCM-P showed that the tensile strength decreased, and elongation at break increased as glycerol concentration increased. Films became more transparent with increasing glycerol and decreasing protein concentration, while water vapor permeability increased with increasing glycerol and protein concentration. Water sorption data of films were fitted to the Guggenheim, Anderson, and De Boer model. In general, equilibrium moisture content of films increased as glycerol level increased. Overall, the results showed that MDCM-P could be useful as a new protein source for both food and packaging industries. © 2017 Walter de Gruyter GmbH, Berlin/Boston 2017.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessedible filmfunctional propertiesmechanically deboned chicken meatproteinsorption isothermsAnimalsEmulsificationGelationGlycerolPolyelectrolytesProteinsTensile strengthChicken meatEdible filmsEquilibrium moisture contentsFilm-forming propertiesFunctional propertiesGlycerol concentrationSorption isothermsWater vapor permeabilityMeatsedible filmfunctional propertiesmechanically deboned chicken meatproteinsorption isothermsAnimalsEmulsificationGelationGlycerolPolyelectrolytesProteinsTensile strengthChicken meatEdible filmsEquilibrium moisture contentsFilm-forming propertiesFunctional propertiesGlycerol concentrationSorption isothermsWater vapor permeabilityMeatsArticle131110.1515/ijfe-2017-00592-s2.0-85035094356N/AWOS:000415789500006Q3
