title: Hydrodynamic dispersion in β-lactoglobulin gels measured by PGSE NMR.
abstract: The displacement scale dependent molecular dynamics of solvent water molecules flowing through [Formula: see text] -lactoglobulin gels are measured by pulse gradient spin echo (PGSE) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). Gels formed under different p H conditions generate structures which are characterized by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and PGSE NMR measured dynamics as homogeneous and heterogeneous. The data presented clearly demonstrate the applicability of the theoretical framework for modeling hydrodynamic dispersion to the analysis of protein gels.
