IMMOBILIZED ENZYME COMPOSITIONS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF HEXOSES
20240200109 · 2024-06-20 ·

The invention relates to immobilized enzyme compositions for the preparation of a hexose. Hexoses include, for example, tagatose, psicose, fructose, allose, mannose, galactose, altrose, talose, sorbose, gulose, idose, and inositol. The invention also relates to an enzymatic process for preparing a hexose from a saccharide by contacting a starch derivative with an immobilized enzyme composition of the invention.

FOODSTUFFS HAVING IMPROVED DIGESTION PROPERTIES

The invention relates to methods for determining if a pea variety or a product derived from that pea variety has improved digestion properties. The invention also relates to methods of improving the digestion property of a pea, as well as method of making such plants.

Wheat with increased resistant starch levels

A series of independent human-induced non-transgenic mutations found at one or more of the SBEII genes of wheat; wheat plants having these mutations in one or more of their SBEII genes; and a method of creating and finding similar and/or additional mutations of SBEII by screening pooled and/or individual wheat plants. The seeds and flour from the wheat plants of the present invention exhibit an increase in amylose and resistant starch without having the inclusion of foreign nucleic acids in their genomes. Additionally, the wheat plants of the present invention exhibit altered SBEII activity without having the inclusion of foreign nucleic acids in their genomes.

Food ingredients produced from high amylose wheat

Provided are food and drink ingredients produced from wheat grain which has a low level (2-30%) of total starch branching enzyme II activity and an amylose content in the starch of at least 50% (w/w), and processes for producing and using the ingredients. Also provided are foods produced from the ingredients which may be used in humans to improve one or more parameters of metabolic health, bowel health or cardiovascular health.
