Abstract: Internal factors and external factors affecting the gel property of egg white protein were studied. The results indicated that the gel property of egg white protein was closely related to electrostatic interaction, hydrogen bond, disulfide bond, protein concentration, pH, heating temperature, heating time. These factors should be considered when the gel property of egg white protein is required.

Key words: egg white protein, gel property, affecting factors
