Abstract The influence of chemically modified 7S fraction of soybean protein (7MSPF), and its partial replacement by mono- and di-glycerides in various ratios, on the rate of drop coalescence in concentrated corn oil-in-water emulsions has been investigated. A total emulsifier concentration of 2.0 % (wt/wt) was used. The minimum drop coalescence rate was achieved when using 1.0% (wt/wt) 7MSPF in conjunction with 0.5% (wt/wt) monoglyceride and 0.5 % (wt/wt) di-glyceride at pH 5.5. At other mono-/di-glycerides and protein/glycerides ratios, and at other pHs, the rate of drop coalescence was higher than when 2.0% (wt/wt) 7MSPF was used. The reduction in drop coalescence rate under these conditions is attributed to association of 7MSPF with the glycerides at the oil-water interface. The influence of protein/glycerides ratio on the viscoelastic properties of mixed interfacial films supports this view.
