Technical Abstract: Extrusion processing is used to modify the physical texture (texturization) of whey proteins, expanding their potential use in snack foods. Texturization changes the globular folding of proteins improving their interaction with other ingredients, and is the basis for creating new whey enriched snacks. The physical modification of whey proteins opens opportunity for wider use of dairy ingredients in different products, bringing along with it improved functionality and health benefits. Functionality benefits derived from modified whey proteins are mostly from the amino acids, their constitution, composition, and conformation.
