摘要:
The present invention pertains to a novel starch-based opacifying agent, to methods of manufacture and to food and non-food formulations containing the opacifying agent. The starch-based opacifying agent comprises an opacifier (e.g., titanium dioxide) and starch in the form of a complex in which the opacifier has been stabilized or entrapped therein. The opacifying agent can be used in low fat and fat-free foods and beverages, including coffee creamer, cottage cheese dressing, nutritional beverages, mayonnaise, sour cream, ice cream, yogurt, salad dressing and other foods and beverages that need to be opacified. The opacifying agent can also be incorporated into non-food formulation, such as cosmetics, creams and lotions.

Texturized oils and oil-continuous emulsions are prepared by combining liquid oils with edible polymers. The resulting texturized oils and emulsions are gelled substances having a fat-like consistency which approximates the viscoelastic properties of solid fats, such as butter, margarine or hydrogenated vegetable oils, but contain no saturated fats. These texturized oils and emulsions can be used as a substitute for solid fats in food products and to make high-quality spreads containing reduced amounts of saturated fat.
摘要:
A process for the production of high purity monoglycerides by lipase-catalyzed transesterification, and the products of the reaction, are described. In the method of the present invention, oils or pure triglycerides are combined with alcohol, a small amount of water and a lipase. The reaction proceeds under mild conditions, and produces high yields of .beta.-monoglyceride product.
摘要:
Water-dispersible microparticles of hydrophobic, water-insoluble, non-denatured protein, and method for preparing a suspension of these microparticles by the controlled precipitation of the protein, is described. The suspension can be used as a substitute for most dietary fats, or to encapsulate selected molecules. The water-insoluble proteins used in the process can be chemically or enzymatically modified to enhance the properties of the microparticles.
摘要:
Synthesis of phenylserine ester (a) via benzaldehyde and glycine ester using serine hydroxymethyltransferase; and (b) via methyl benzoylacetate. Synthesis of hydroxy-aspartame or derivative by enzymatic coupling of phenylserine or derivative with aspartic acid or derivative. Hydrogenation of the coupled product to give as final product aspartame or analog with related processes and products.
摘要:
An enzymatic process for preparing an oil based product significantly enriched in omega-3 fatty acids is disclosed. The process is a two-step procedure involving lipase-catalyzed transesterification of triglycerides followed by low-temperature crystallization. The process yields a mixture of highly pure monoglycerides, at least sixty-percent of which contain omega-3 fatty acids. The process can also be used to produce omega-3 enriched triglyceride products.
