Food chemistry
This study aimed to evaluate the effect of sodium caseinate (SC) on the thermal stability of Monascus pigments (MPs) under acidic conditions (pH 3.0) during heating at 100 °C at different time (0, 30, 60, 90 and 120 min). The MPs solution was precipitated after heating in an acidic condition, while it was stable in the presence of SC. Particle size...
