The invention relates to separated, decompacted, cellulose-based fibres acquired from a vegetable raw material, wherein the separated, decompacted, cellulose-based fibres have an aspect ratio after soaking in water of longitudinal diameter to transverse diameter of 1:1 to 1000:1 and a water-binding capacity of >200 wt. % and a water retention capacity of >50%, and a method for acquiring and producing these separated, decompacted cellulose-based fibres. The purification method involves incubation of the vegetable material with an aqueous decomposition solution containing at least one dissolved amino acid and/or peptide with 2-50 amino acids to decompose the compacted cellulose-based fibres.

The invention provides nanoemulsion for preparing plant-based meat, the nanoemulsion has a particle size ranging from 300 nm to 320 nm. The plant-based meat prepared by using the nanoemulsion of the present invention can retain flavors after various cooking methods. The plant-based meat of the present invention can withstand different pH values and temperatures, and remains stable at different concentrations of salt, sugar, lipids, protein, carbohydrates and a variety of organic compounds, and will not lower consumer’s flavor expectations and perceptions. The plant-based meat of the present invention retains more flavors, so less flavoring is needed, and the cost will be reduced.

The present invention provides peptoid polymers and salts thereof that comprise hydrophobic and polar peptoid monomers and are capable of reducing or inhibiting the formation of ice crystals at sub 0° C. temperatures. Also provided are peptoid-peptide hybrids and salts thereof comprising the peptoid polymers provided herein. The peptoid polymers, peptoid-peptide hybrids, and salts thereof provided herein are useful for making cryoprotectant solutions. The peptoid polymers, peptoid-peptide hybrids, salts thereof, and cryoprotectant solutions provided herein are useful for making antifreeze solutions, frozen food products, and cosmetic care products. Also provided herein are methods for preserving a tissue, an organ, a cell, or a biological macromolecule using the compositions described herein.

This document relates to ground meat replicas, and more particularly to plant-based products that mimic ground meat, including the fibrousness, heterogeneity in texture, beefy flavor, and red-to-brown color transition during cooking of ground meat.

The present invention includes a method and meat product made by contacting an emulsion with a meat product for a time sufficient to, wherein the emulsion comprises by weight: 10% to 50% water, 0.1 to 4.0% Quillaja, 0.1% to 8% meat flavoring, 60% to 85% high oleic sunflower oil, meat seasoning, 0-2.0% salt, and optionally one or more stabilizers.

This disclosure relates to comestible products, digestive supplements, and meat meal products comprising comminuted Miscanthus plant fiber.

This invention relates to an alginate composition for coating food products, in particular cooked meat products such as sausages and a method for producing the alginate composition. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method for producing coated food products with the use of the alginate composition of the invention.

An oil- or fat-processed starch, exhibiting a solubility of equal to or higher than 9.5% by mass and equal to or lower than 45% by mass, and an emulsifying capacity of equal to or higher than 50% and equal to or lower than 100%.

The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition for treating and preventing degenerative neurological disorders, containing, as an active ingredient, a mixture extract of two or more types selected from the group consisting of Moutan Root Bark, Angelica Dahurica Root, and Bupleurum Root, or a fraction thereof. Specifically, the extract of the mixture of the present invention exhibits a recovery effect on mitochondrial function damage, a relieving effect on endoplasmic reticulum stress and also exhibits simultaneously an inhibitory effect on inflammatory response, which are remarkably improved compared with those exhibited in an in vitro single extract, and the extract of the mixture significantly exhibits an improvement effect on motor coordination and a protective effect on dopaminergic neurons in a Parkinson's disease animal model, and thus the extract of the mixture of the present invention or a fraction thereof can be useful as an active ingredient of a pharmaceutical composition for treating and preventing degenerative neurological disorders.

Provided is a liquid for meat processing, including (A) an oil- or fat-processed starch and (B) one or more alkali agents selected from the group consisting of sodium hydrogen carbonate, sodium carbonate, potassium hydrogen carbonate, and potassium carbonate, in which a pH of a 10% by mass aqueous dispersion of the component (A) at 25° C. is equal to or more than 4.0 and equal to or less than 12.0.
