Abstract The effects of NaCl addition on the gelling and water holding properties of egg white/yolk gels were studied via solubility, surface hydrophobicity, reduced sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), Fourier transform infrared spectra (FTIR), textural analysis, low-field nuclear magnetic resonance (LF-NMR) and centrifugation. Results showed that more solubility and surface hydrophobicity increase of egg yolk dispersions were observed than that of egg white dispersions. SDS-PAGE results indicated that the different change trend of surface hydrophobicity between two egg proteins was closely related with the dissociation of egg yolk granule proteins. NaCl-induced protein heat denaturation will result in the decrease of ordered secondary structure (α-helix and β-sheet) by breaking hydrogen bond for both egg protein gels. A rapid decrease (p
