On the other hand, degraded proteins caused by heat activated proteases could not form the strong gel with capacity of holding water. The expressible moisture content of all gels decreased as the levels of ZnSO4 or ZnCl2 increased up to 60 mmol/kg (Po0.05). Expressible moisture content of kama
boko gels decreased by 33.5 and 17.2%,when 60 mmol/kg ZnSO4 and ZnCl2 were added, respectively (Table 1).
