The present disclosure relates to unique soluble pea protein product can be used alone to make aerated bakery products, confections, desserts, sauces, and beverages. The soluble pea protein product can be combined with insoluble pea protein product to make a range of food products with higher protein content than when insoluble, globular pea protein product is used alone, due to the viscosity reducing nature of the soluble pea protein product when it is combined with insoluble globular pea protein product. The soluble pea protein products when combined with insoluble pea protein products, make a resulting pea protein product that has a PDCAAS of about 0.75-1.00. The process to make this unique soluble pea protein includes means of selectively separating the soluble pea protein product from the insoluble fractions of ground peas, as well as selectively separating the soluble pea protein from soluble carbohydrates and ash. This Abstract is not intended to identify key features or essential features of subject matter, nor does this Abstract intend to be used to limit the scope of claimed subject matter.

Methods of manufacturing products from material comprising oilcake, compositions produced from materials comprising processed oilcake, and systems for processing oilcake are provided herein. The method comprises de-solubilizing protein in a material comprising oilcake to produce a processed material comprising an insoluble protein fraction. The processed material is hydrolyzed to produce a mixture comprising the insoluble protein fraction and a hydrolyzed fraction. The insoluble protein fraction is separated from the hydrolyzed fraction. The insoluble protein fraction is processed into a product.

The process may comprise the following steps: a) providing an oilseed meal; b) mixing the oilseed meal with a first aqueous solvent to form a slurry at a pH ranging from 6 to 7.8, said slurry having a solid phase; c) separating said solid phase from said slurry, d) mixing said separated solid phase with a second aqueous solvent at a pH ranging from 1 to 3.5, preferably from 2 to 3, to form a mixture said mixture having a liquid phase; e) separating said liquid phase from said mixture formed in step d); f) f1) mixing the separated liquid phase to a phytase at a temperature and a pH suitable for phytase activity to obtain a mixture having a liquid phase and a solid phase; and/or f2) mixing the separated liquid to a salt, to obtain a resulting liquid composition having a molar concentration of said salt ranging from 0.05 M to 0.5 M, at a temperature ranging from 40 C. to 70 C., to obtain a mixture having a liquid phase and a solid phase; g) precipitating a solid phase from the liquid of step f) for example by a cooling down step of the mixture to a temperature of 30 C. or less; h) separating said solid precipitate from the liquid of step g) said liquid comprising a water-rich liquid phase and an oil-rich liquid phase; i) separating said water-rich liquid phase from said oil-rich liquid phase, j) subjecting said water-rich liquid phase obtained in step i) to one or several membrane filtration(s) to obtain a protein isolate; and k) optionally, drying said protein isolate to obtain a dry protein isolate.

The present invention describes a bio-based process to produce high quality protein concentrate (HQPC) by converting plant derived celluloses into bioavailable protein via aerobic incubation, including the use of such HQPC so produced as a nutrient, including use as a fish meal replacement in aquaculture diets.

Hemp seed protein fractions are provided with particular applicability for forming stable emulsions for microencapsulating lipid based components. The hemp seed protein fraction is extracted from a hemp seed protein source by aqueous alkaline extraction, followed by separation to provide a aqueous hemp protein solution and residual hemp protein source solids. The hemp seed protein fraction is isolated from the aqueous hemp protein solution by either i) precipitating hemp proteins from the separated aqueous hemp protein solution at or above the isoelectric pH and at a temperature no greater than 70 C., and separating the precipitated proteins to produce a hemp seed protein fraction; or ii) ultrafiltering the separated aqueous hemp protein solution to produce a hemp seed protein fraction having a molecular weight of 5,000 Da and higher. The isolated hemp seed protein fractions form stable emulsions with lipid based components and form microencapsulated powders.

A method for extraction and multi-scenario utilization of flaxseed protein-polysaccharide natural mixture is disclosed, comprising:(1) raw material pretreatment; (2) extraction of mixture I; (3) multi-scenario utilization of mixture I; (4) extraction of mixture II; and (5) multi-scenario utilization of mixture II. Compared with the traditional extraction mode (such as alkali-solution and acid-isolation method) of flaxseed protein, the method of the invention can enrich the flaxseed protein more efficiently, greenly and moderately, and can co-extract polysaccharide from flaxseed meal to form the flaxseed protein-polysaccharide natural mixture. Physical field/bio-enzyme coupling ultrasonic technique solves the bottleneck problem of low extraction rate of the flaxseed protein-polysaccharide natural mixture by water extraction method. By controlling the types of physical field/enzyme, action parameters and treatment time, flaxseed protein-polysaccharide natural mixtures with different proportions can be customized and endowed with multiple functional properties, so as to satisfy the multi-scenario utilization of mixtures I and II.

The present invention relates to beverage products, in particular a liquid natural coconut based creamer composition comprising: coconut; coconut oil; high acyl gellan gum present in an amount ranging from 0.08 to 0.15 wt/wt %; guar gum present in an amount ranging from 0 to 0.5 wt/wt %; pea protein present in an amount ranging from 0.2 to 2 wt/wt %; and buffer.

The present invention provides a walnut oligopeptide powder, a preparation method and application thereof. The oligopeptide powder has a peptide content of 80 wt % or higher, in which 95% or more of the peptides have a molecular weight of less than 1,500 Da. The method includes extracting walnut proteins using a highly efficient countercurrent extraction process, and subjecting the extract to filtration, enzymolysis, purification with a microfiltration membrane and an ultrafiltration membrane, concentrating, and spray drying to obtain the oligopeptide powder. The oligopeptide powder has an anti-oxidant activity and provides a protective effect for a neuron, and thus can ameliorate or treat memory deterioration and relieve fatigue.
