Biopolymer mixtures contribute to network formation in food systems. The effects of pH and urea on the structural ordering of canola protein isolate–κ-carrageenan (CPI–κ-CAR) gels were assessed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). At pH 6, loosely-crosslinked CPI networks with large empty pores were produced whereas tightly-crosslinked structures were displayed at pH 10. The structure of CPI network was greatly improved when CPI and κ-CAR were mixed, indicating a synergistic behaviour between the two macromolecules. Urea affected the structural arrangement and interactions involved in the formation CPI–κ-CAR gels. Urea-treated gels showed excessive network disruption and breakdown. The microstructural results support the involvement of disulfide bonds and noncovalent interactions in the structural arrangement of CPI–κ-CAR networks.
