Food chemistry

a model of ionic gelation in which divalent cations such as calcium sit in cavities between paired guluronate or galacturonate chains, cross-linking them like eggs in a box.

In food chemistry, egg-box model refers to a model of ionic gelation in which divalent cations such as calcium sit in cavities between paired guluronate or galacturonate chains, cross-linking them like eggs in a box. This meaning comes from Grant (1973) in FEBS Letters.[1]
