Effects of plasma-activated water rinsing on gastric emptying and the digestion kinetics of surimi myofibrillar proteins under dynamic in vitro digestion

Key Points

• Gastric emptying appears enhanced with the use of plasma-activated water, suggesting improved digestion.
• Key metric indicates faster digestion kinetics of surimi myofibrillar proteins in dynamic in vitro conditions.
• Assessment using an in vitro digestion model reveals the significant impact of plasma-activated water on protein breakdown.
• Findings highlight potential applications in food processing and enhanced nutrient bioavailability.
