The present invention provides a method for processing defatted oil seeds, comprising the steps of: (a) solubilizing at least a portion of the protein contained in the oil seeds to produce suspended residual solids and a first solution comprising protein, phenolic-protein complexes, and free phenolic compounds; (b) treating at least a portion of the phenolic-protein complexes in the first solution to liberate at least some phenolic compounds from the phenolic-protein complexes thereby producing a second solution; (c) separating at least a portion of the free phenolic compounds from the second solution and recovering a free phenolic reduced solution; and (d) treating the free phenolic reduced solution to precipitate at least a portion of the protein as a precipitated protein isolate and recovering a treated solution containing a soluble protein isolate. Novel protein products are also disclosed. Food and drink products containing the novel protein products are also disclosed.

Production of high-quality protein isolates from defatted meals of Brassica seeds

A process for removing chlorophyll color impurities from vegetable oils, the process comprises:

Process for removing chlorophyll color impurities from vegetable oils

A process of treating meal containing vegetable proteins is disclosed. This process includes the step of extracting the metal with a suitable aqueous solvent in which the vegetable proteins are soluble to obtain an extraction solution. The solubility of the dissolved protein in the extraction solution is then adjusted to precipitate at least some of the protein and therefore obtain a precipitated protein fraction and an unprecipitated protein fraction in solution. The precipitated protein fraction is then separated from the protein fraction in solution, and the unprecipitated protein fraction is separated from the undesirable components in the solution by membrane processing. Each of the protein fractions is then suitably dried to recover the proteins.

Production of rapeseed protein materials

A method of extracting components from particulate materials is disclosed. The method includes the steps of mixing the particles with a first extraction solvent to provide a slurry. The slurry is then passed through an extraction zone. A second extraction solvent is passed countercurrently to the slurry through the extraction zone. The second solvent has a different density from the first solvent and is substantially immiscible with the first solvent. This process is particularly beneficial for use in the extraction of ground oil-seed particles.

Extraction of particulate materials

Compositions for curing meats comprising dinitrosyl ferrohemochrome and at least one antioxidant, at least one sequestering agent and at least one antimicrobial agent. Such compositions bestow similar color, flavor, and microbiological stability as that associated with nitrite-treated meats.

Meat curing compositions and method of use

This invention relates to a process for the extraction of oilseeds and oilseed materials with two mutually immiscible solvents, the first solvent comprising a lower alkanol containing dissolved ammonia, and the second solvent comprising a lower alkane or halogenated lower alkane. The process yields two improved products, a proteinaceous meal of reduced glucosinolate content and a high quality triglyceride oil, both acceptable as food ingredients.
