Methods of separating components traditionally considered as waste material from mold-fermented compositions are described. The waste components can be separated either from unfiltered compositions or from a separation stream separated from a composition. In some embodiments, filamentous fungus used in the production of the mold-fermented composition is specifically targeted for separation. Incorporation of separated waste components into various products are also described herein. In some embodiments, the separated components are used in alternative meat products and other foods designed for human consumption. Separated components can also be used in animal feed, as feed stock for other fermentation processes, or for use in treating food, creating cosmetics, or chemical processes.

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a water-soluble polysaccharide which is less expensive and enables the production of an acidic protein food or drink, said acidic protein food or drink being stable in an acidic pH range at the isoelectric point of protein or higher, even by using a starting material such as a root vegetable. A water-soluble polysaccharide, which is extracted from a starting material derived from a root vegetable in a wet state with hot water under acidic conditions of pH 2.7-3.7, can well stabilize an acidic protein food or drink in a pH range at the isoelectric point of protein or higher.

Provided are methods and systems for remediating toxins present in feedstock that are used in processes to produce ethanol and other products.

The present invention relates to a process for reducing the content of MOSH and/or MOAH from a vegetable oil selected from the group consisting of palm-based oil, cocoa butter-based oil and any mixtures thereof, and wherein the process is comprising the step of subjecting a vegetable oil to a short-path evaporation, wherein the short-path evaporation is performed at a pressure of below 1 mbar, at an evaporator temperature in a range of from 235 and 290° C., and with a feed rate per unit area of evaporator surface of the short-path evaporation equipment in a range from 35 to 102 kg/h.Math.m.sup.2, and thus obtaining a retentate vegetable oil. Present invention further relates to use of short-path evaporation for reducing content of MOSH and/or MOAH from vegetable oil.

Fumonisins are a type of mycotoxin that contaminate different products, for example, feed and food products, including corn-based products, which can lead to serious health risks to humans and livestock. Current methods for detoxifying fumonisin-contaminated products are complex and expensive. The present disclosure provides a recombinant microbial host cell expressing an heterologous polypeptide having fumonisin amine oxidase activity, the recombinant microbial host cell comprising an heterologous nucleic acid molecule encoding the heterologous polypeptide having fumonisin amine oxidase activity, a variant thereof or a fragment thereof. The heterologous polypeptide having fumonisin amine oxidase activity can be used to detoxify a fumonisin mycotoxin present in feed and food products, for example from grains and products derived from grains.

A method of reconditioning potatoes is disclosed. Over a time period of 1 week or more, potatoes are stored in a controlled environment having a temperature of >=10° C. and an atmosphere comprising ethylene at a concentration greater than 0.1 ppm. A corresponding system is also disclosed.

Aspects of the present disclosure relate to compositions including rice bran extract, method of making rice bran extract and method of using same.

The present invention provides methods of producing decolorized beet products and compositions produced therefrom. In some implementations, the decolorized beet product is decolorized beetroot juice.

The present invention provides methods of producing decolorized beet products and compositions produced therefrom. In some implementations, the decolorized beet product is decolorized beetroot juice.

The present invention relates to a food-grade composition rich in insoluble corn fiber and having a good water absorption capacity, which can be used in processed meats, plant-based meat alternative products and in hybrid restructured meat products. The present invention also relates to a process for preparing a food-grade composition rich in insoluble corn fiber and having a good water absorption capacity, which can be used in processed meats, plant-based meat alternative products and in hybrid restructured meat products.
