Abstract:
A process to produce IPP from a protein source whereby the protein source comprises a protein having the -I-P-P- sequence and having in the protein amino acid sequence at least 6 times more -I-P-P- present than -V-P-P- (molar basis) which comprises hydrolysing the protein source to liberate at least 40% of the I-P-P- sequence 10 into the peptide IPP and whereby a proteolytic enzyme is used which cleaves at the carboxy-terminus of proline residues present in the protein source, the enzyme is preferably a proline specific endoprotease or proline specific oligopeptidase, more preferably a proline specific endoprotease, and optionally an amino peptidase.
Abstract:
A process to produce IPP and VPP from a protein source that comprises the -I- P-P- and -V-P-P- sequence in its protein sequence and whereby at least 40% of -I-P-P- sequence present in the protein source is converted into the peptide IPP and at least 40% of the -V-P-P- sequence present in the protein source is converted into the peptide VPP, which comprises the use of a proline specific endoprotease and an amino- peptidase preferably in a single enzymatic step.

Abstract:
The present invention describes the use of a proline-specific endoprotease to improve the flavour of baked cereal products. The invention also relates to novel compositions comprising a proline-specific endoprotease and an exopeptidase and dough comprising such composition suitable for improving flavour in baked cereal products, a method for improving flavour in baked products, and to baked products having an improved flavour.
Abstract:
Process for the production of a food or feed product, comprising adding an enzyme to the surface of an intermediate form of the food or feed product, and subsequently applying at least one heating step, whereby the enzyme is capable of modifying amino acids present in the intermediate form of the food or feed product. The invention also relates to food or feed products obtained by the process of the invention.
Abstract:
This invention relates to a process for obtaining enzymatically hydrolysed proteinaceous material for human consumption. The process involves the use of essentially only one exopeptidase, in combination with one or more suitable endopeptidases, to obtain improved taste characteristics and process economics under conditions which minimise microbial contamination.
Abstract:
The present invention describes stable water-in-oil emulsions comprising the following components: water, oil, a labile compound of interest, a stabilizing agent and an emulsifier. The labile compound present in the water phase is stabilized by addition of a stabilizing agent which preferably is a polyol. Specific emulsifiers are described which give rise to stable emulsions in the presence of high amounts of a polyol.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a composition of at least one protease and a mode of application for treating patients suffering from pancreatic enzyme insufficiency, pancreatitis or cystic fibrosis. The composition of enzymes comprises at least one protease which has a pH optimum below 5.0 and wherein said protease is further active in the presence of pepsin. In a preferred embodiment, said protease is of microbial origin.
