PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To produce the subject new conjugate, comprising a glucide-protein conjugate prepared by thermally reacting a glucide containing an acidic saccharide having carboxyl group as a constituent saccharide with a protein in an aqueous system and useful as a modifier, etc., for coffee whiteners, sponge cakes, etc. SOLUTION: This new glucide-protein, comprises a mixed and heated substance of a glucide containing an acidic saccharide having carboxyl group as a constituent saccharide with a protein, has new functions different from those of the individual glucicle and protein before the reaction and is useful for various applications such as a modifier, etc., for coffee whiteners, sponge cakes, etc. The glucide-protein conjugate is obtained by carrying out the thermal reaction of the glucide containing an acidic saccharide having carboxyl group such as uronic acid or a carboxylic acid etherified saccharide as a constituent saccharide with a glucide such as pectin, alginic acid, gum arabic, gellan gum or carboxymethyl cellulose with the protein such as a soybean protein, a wheat protein, a casein, an ovalalbumin or a gelatin in an aqueous system at >=100 deg.C. |
