The effect of heat treatment at 95-100 °C for 5 min and homogenization on the physicochemical properties of soymilk was studied, determining the particle size distribution and the amount and type of protein present after step-wise centrifugation. Differential scanning calorimetry of soy protein showed three thermal transitions for unheated soymilk at 54, 70 and 94 °C, which were attributed to 2S, 7S and 11S, respectively. These thermal transitions were absent from heated (and homogenized) soymilk. Unheated soymilk showed a large average particle size, a broad size distribution, and significant protein precipitation with centrifugation. Heating of soymilk decreased the particle size distribution and improved its stability. Homogenization also resulted in a decrease in particle size, with a narrower size distribution compared to heated soymilk. During step-wise centrifugation changes in the ratios of 11S (glycinin) and 7S (β-conglycinin) in the supernatants were noted, and they depended on the treatments applied to soymilk. Transmission electron microscopy observations showed the distribution of the colloidal particles in soymilk and helped further identify the differences after heating and heating with homogenization.
