Description
The Fractal dimension (Df) is a key structural parameter of the networks formed by several food systems. In the present work, dairy gels from skim milk at different concentrations are formed via two different mechanisms: acidification, and enzymic (rennet)-induction. Oscillatory rheology, and ultra-small-angle neutron scattering (USANS) studies are performed to characterize their structural evolution. The perspectives on Df thus obtained will be discussed to understand the inherent physics.
