  "abstract": "Sodium alginate (ALG)/Gellan Gum (GG), myofibrillar protein (MF), and ovalbumin (OVA) were used to fabricate an interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) soft gel. The Ca 2+ -induced ALG network formed the primary matrix, followed by a heat-induced MF-OVA protein network. Optimal ALG concentration (MA-1) maximized network interpenetration and suppressed protein self-aggregation, yielding high moisture content (97%) and water-holding capacity (∼95%). The polysaccharide network facilitated ordered protein distribution and enhanced acyl bond interactions, enabling stable gelation under minimum gelation concentration. The resulting IPN gel balanced high cohesion with soft texture, attributed to dual-network interpenetration and physical entanglement. This study offers a novel structural design strategy for developing soft, morphologically stable protein gels for individuals with swallowing disorders.",
