👉 Tricurvate is a type of protein found in animal and plant sources, which are often referred to as "wet" or "water-based" proteins. These types of proteins are known for their ability to absorb water and swell under pressure, making them ideal for use in various applications such as cooking, baking, and food preservation. Tricurvate is characterized by its high molecular weight (approximately 100 kDa), which allows it to retain a significant amount of water.
