Numerous investigations on protein-polysaccharide systems have recently been undertaken and are leading to a better understanding of the key parameters implied in protein-polysaccharide interactions. Microscopic methods are being developed to describe the structure formation in the mixed systems in combination with rheological characterisation. Progress is also being made in the description of the mechanisms underlying the phase separation processes by the use of scattering techniques.
