The effects of transglutaminase (TGase) addition (0.4–1.2 g/100g), ultrasound (120–720 W, 20 min), and their combination on the gel properties and in vitro digestion characteristics of bay scallop adductor muscle were studied. The gel strength of the gel sample with TGase content of 0.8 g/100g (TG-0.8) was 58.2% higher than that of the control sample (CON). The gel sample treated with ultrasound at 480 W (UT-480) had the highest gel strength. The strength of the gel prepared by combination of 0.8 g/100g TGase and 360 W ultrasound (UT-TG) was 82.3% higher than that of CON. The whiteness and water holding capacity of the gel increased regardless of the addition of TGase or ultrasound treatment. SDS-PAGE patterns showed that the myosin heavy chain of the treated samples became thinner, and the changes of actin and tropomyosin were not significant. The scanning electron microscopy results of gel samples prepared by ultrasound combined with TGase showed a denser structure, which was related to the lowest total sulfhydryl content and TCA-soluble peptide content. The results of dynamic rheology show that the UT-TG sample had the highest G′ value, followed by TG-0.8. The in vitro digestion characteristics of the selected gel samples were also discussed. The degree of protein hydrolysis and the content of free amino acids in TG-0.8 samples were the lowest, which improved after ultrasound treatment. Overall, the combination of appropriate ultrasound treatment and TGase addition provides an effective means for improving gel properties and digestibility of scallop surimi product.
