Revisiting Protein Quality Assessment to Include Alternative Proteins. [PDF]
Foods, 2022 The high demand for novel and existing sustainable protein sources (e.g., legumes, insects, algae, and cultured meat) to replace the animal-based sources is becoming crucial. This change in protein consumption calls for the re-evaluation of the current methods to assess their quality and bioavailability.

Hybrid Meat Products: Incorporation of White Bean Flour in Lean Pork Burgers
Applied Sciences, 2022 The effect of partial lean pork-meat replacement by white Phaseolus vulgaris L. flour in hybrid burgers was studied. A multivariate regression model was used to test different bean flour levels (BF: 8–15 g/100 g) and water/bean flour ratios (W/BF: 1.2, 1.
