Effects of the Maillard Reaction on the Structural and Functional Properties of Camel Whey Protein.
Article in Foods (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Consumer demand for dairy products like cheese and curds has resulted in a rise in whey production, which has caused significant waste and environmental issues. For this reason, improving the functional characteristics of whey proteins and their usage value are essential. In this study, camel whey protein-galactose conjugates (CWP-Gal) and camel whey protein-glucose conjugates (CWP-Glu) were prepared through the Maillard reaction, and their structural and functional properties were characterized. Improvements in solubility of 14.90% and 8.17%, emulsification activity of 15.53% and 13.64%, and foaming capacity of 113.95% and 106.03% were demonstrated by CWP-Gal and CWP-Glu in comparison to camel whey protein (CWP). Circular dichroism analysis revealed secondary structure alterations in CWP-Gal and CWP-Glu compared to CWP. SDS-PAGE, FT-IR, and intrinsic fluorescence spectroscopy all verified that sugar molecules and proteins were covalently conjugated. SEM analysis revealed that the conjugates had a more sparsely packed microstructure. The results demonstrate that CWP-Gal exhibits enhanced structural stability and superior functional properties, providing a scientific basis for its potential utilization in the food industry.
