This work investigated the effects of low-frequency ultrasound (US) induced conformational variation of duck liver globular proteins (DLGPs) on the binding behavior of n-alkenals based on multi-spectroscopic analysis combined with headspace solid phase microextraction technique. Results suggested that US-treatments, with the frequency of 40 kHz and the power density of 26.7 W/L, induced obvious tertiary and quaternary structure changes of DLGPs, as revealed by fluorescence and ultraviolet-visible absorption spectroscopy, whereas the secondary and primary structures of DLGPs remained almost unaffected, suggesting the presence of moltenglobule (MG) intermediates due to US-treatment. Meanwhile, the particles size and absolute values of zeta-potential exhibited significant increases as the functions of ultrasonic durations. According to multivariate results, the conformational variations, involving natural, MG and post-MG states, could be differentiated successfully. The US-induced conformational changes of DGLPs allowed it easier to interact with volatile n-alkenals, attributed to the enhanced hydrophobic interaction and covalent binding. Correspondingly, the headspace fractions of nalkenals were greatly reduced after ultrasound pretreatments, with different degrees ranging from 5.61 to 59.39%, depending on chemical structures and processing conditions. This work suggests the great potential of specific conformational variations of DLGPs induced by ultrasonic pretreatments to modulate flavor features of protein-based products.
