Disclosed is a method of producing an egg replacement food product that includes mixing a protein microbial biomass powder with water to obtain a wet mixture, hydrating the wet mixture at room temperature, mixing the wet mixture at high speed, hydrating the mixed wet mixture at 6 C degrees, mixing the hydrated wet mixture with an oil at high speed and emulsifying the mixed wet mixture, homogenizing the emulsified mixed wet mixture, heating the homogenized wet mixture up to from 85 C up to 90 C degrees, and adding sodium chloride (NaCl) and citric acid to the heated wet mixture and mixing to obtain pH from 3.5 up to 4.0.

Disclosed is a method of producing a meat analogue food product that includes mixing a microbial biomass protein slurry with a preparation with transglutaminase enzyme to obtain a protein mixture; incubating the protein mixture for a first period time with mixing at a temperature ranging from 28? C. up to 40? C.; adding at least one of selected from an aqueous MgCl.sub.2 or an aqueous CaCl.sub.2 to the protein mixture; incubating the protein mixture for a second period of time; incubating the protein mixture for a third period of time in a water bath at a temperature ranging from 40? C. up to 60? C.; heating the protein mixture at a temperature ranging from 60? C. up to 85? C.; and setting the protein mixture in a closed mold.

Provided are methods for producing food products comprising recombinant components, and compositions used in and food products produced by such methods.

This document relates to materials and methods for the production of protein. For example, proteins having a low flavor or low color profile and food products comprising the same.

The present invention relates to a process for producing single cell protein, wherein a thermophilic fungus is grown a fermentable carbon-rich feedstock at a high temperature and at an acidic pH. This allows for a cost effective fermentation process that can to be run under non-sterile conditions and without additional cooling requirements. The process can be used to convert by-products or waste from agriculture or food production, or organic fractions of municipal solid waste into valuable single cell protein that can be applied as dietary source of protein or protein supplement in human food or animal feed.

Provided is the recombinant vector (pRBASFer-ori) for mass production of ferritin protein and a mass production method of ferritin protein using the same, more specifically, a recombinant vector (pRBASFer-ori) for mass production of ferritin protein, which is a Periserrula leucophryna-derived iron protein; a Bacillus subtilis transformant to which the recombinant vector (pRBASFer-ori) is introduced; and a mass production method using the same. The recombinant vector for mass production of ferritin protein and the mass production method of ferritin protein using the same according to the present invention, has an effect of more efficiently secretion by expressing a ferritin gene obtained from Periserrula leucophryna, and the ferritin-containing culture broth has an excellent biological activity, especially an outstanding biological activities in laying hens, broilers, and weaning pigs, respectively.

This disclosure describes methods for purifying protein, and more particularly to methods for purifying protein that minimize the development of undesirable odors and flavors in the purified protein and increase protein yield.
