An immobilized glucose isomerase having increased productivity and stability is prepared by mixing a smectite filler and 50-100 mesh granular activated carbon with flocculated cells of an organism of the genus Actinoplanes and forming the resulting mixture into discrete particles.

Beer brewed from malted barley and having a rice adjunct can be produced at higher gravity cold wort concentrations without excessive viscosity build-up by using low gel point rice.

High gravity brewing using low gel point rice adjuncts

A non-crystallizing starch conversion syrup which is rich in fructose and a method of treating a syrup derived from corn or other starch to increase the fructose content of the syrup. The method involves the molecular separation of fructose from dextrose by treating a fructose-dextrose feed syrup. The first component stripped out by the separation process is a dextrose rich component containing most of the higher molecular weight sugars, and thereafter an enriched fraction is recovered which consists mostly of fructose, a lesser amount of dextrose, and only a trace of other sugars.

High fructose syrup and process for making same

This application concerns a method for treating a flocculated homogenate of whole cell glucose isomerase derived from the microorganism Actinoplanes so that the preparation can be dried, preferably after being extruded into cylindrically-shaped particles. The critical step in this method is the addition of a water absorbing smectite filler to the flocculated homogenate prior to drying. The floc also may be frozen and thawed prior to addition of the filler.

Method of treatment of flocculated homogenate of microbial cells

Process for treating corn protein with an alkylene oxide to produce a corn protein derivative that is soluble in a moderately alkaline aqueous medium. The process can also be used to produce a corn protein derivative that is more soluble in 50% aqueous ethanol than in 70% aqueous ethanol. Corn protein suitable for treatment by this process is obtained directly from corn gluten or from zein.
