| Research Abstract |
In this study, we tried to detect biomarkers from egg white using proteomic analysis for improvement in food quality and function of the products. Molecular changes in egg white proteins i) among different egg varieties, ii) during storage and iii) production processes have been investigated using 2-Dimensional Difference Gel Electrophoresis (2D-DIGE). We revealed the specific biomarkers from egg white proteinscompared with control. These results support the use of biomarkers as a valuable tool towards understanding the food science of egg white.
