In this study, differences in the protein content and functional and physicochemical properties of four varieties of egg white (EW) were studied by adding 4&ndash:10% sucrose or NaCl and then heating them at 70 °:C for 3 min. According to a high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis, the percentages of ovalbumin, lysozyme and ovotransferrin rose with an increase in the NaCl or sucrose concentration: however, the percentages of ovomucin and ovomucoid decreased. Furthermore, the foaming properties, gel properties, particle size, &alpha:-helixes, &beta:-sheets, sulfhydryl groups and disulfide bond content also increased, whereas the content of &beta:-turns and random coils decreased. In addition, the total soluble protein content and functional and physicochemical properties of black bone (BB) chicken and Gu-shi (GS) EWs were higher than those of Hy-Line brown (HY-LINE) and Harbin White (HW) Ews (p <: 0.05). Subsequently, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) confirmed the changes in the EW protein structure in the four varieties of Ews. As the aggregations increased, the functional and physicochemical properties decreased. The protein content and functional and physicochemical properties of Ews after heating were correlated with the concentration of NaCl and sucrose and the EW varieties.
