Artificial Intelligence–Assisted Design of Plant‐Protein Meat Analogues: Integrating Nutrition, Functionality, and Fibrillation‐Based Texturization

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Plant proteins provide nutritional value and techno‐functional performance, yet their predominantly globular structures often form isotropic gels that lack the fibrous, anisotropic, and water‐retaining network of animal muscle. This review examines plant‐protein meat analogue design as a multi‐objective challenge requiring the simultaneous ...
