The tertiary structure analysis showed that sonication exposed the hydrophobic core buried inside the protein molecules and broke the intramolecular crosslinks, based on the increase in the surface hydrophobicity and intrinsic fluorescence and the decrease in the disulphide content. Therefore, this study was aimed at investigating the effects of sonication duration and acoustic amplitude on the in vitro digestibility of buckwheat protein isolates (BPIs). In addition, the effects of sonication on the tertiary structures (surface hydrophobicity, intrinsic fluorescence, sulfhydryl and disulfide bond contents), secondary structure, particle size, zeta-potential and microstructure of BPIs were studied to elucidate the structural mechanism underlying the effect of ultrasound on the digestibility of the proteins. ./cache/cord-279586-likfvwwj.txt ./txt/cord-279586-likfvwwj.txt
