Abstract:
This invention relates to a method of reducing biogenic amine content in a beverage by contacting the beverage and/or beverage intermediate with an enzyme having transglutaminase activity.
Abstract:
The invention provides an improved process for recovery of lipids containing polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) from a culture broth of algae with intracellular PUFA lipids. The process of the invention allows production of a PUFA lipid product with high oxidation stability at a low production cost. Accordingly, the invention provides a process for producing a lipid, comprising: a) cultivating microbial cells so as to produce intracellular lipid comprising a polyunsaturated fatty acyl group, b) lysing the microbial cells in the culture broth so as to release the lipid, c) separating the lysate by gravitational force to collect a fraction which is a lipid containing emulsion, d) adding a metal chelating agent during or after the lysis or the separation.
Abstract:
The invention relates to the utilisation of fatty materials with substantial free fatty acid content in the production of biodiesel by the use of microbial enzymes that are effective in a solvent-free process for the production of esters of fatty acids and C 1 -C 3 alkyl alcohols.

Abstract:
The inventor has found that enzymatic treatment of crustaceans with lipolytic enzymes promotes the extraction of coloured pigment. Accordingly, the invention relates to a method for recovering coloured pigment, e.g. astaxanthin, and/or chitin or chitosan and/or lysolecithins from crustaceans. Lipolytic enzyme(s) may e.g. be lipase or phospholipase. The lipolytic enzyme treated crustacean material may be subjected to additional process steps, including treatment with non-lipolytic enzymes such as e.g. protease. The process of the invention provides several suitable products and several uses of such products. Furthermore, the invention also relates to the cosmetic and consumable products (feed and food (including beverages) products and additives produced therefrom.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method of obtaining protein hydrolysates useful as flavoring agents. More specifically, the invention provides a method of obtaining from a proteinaceous substrate a hydrolysate enriched in free glutamic acid and/or peptide bound glutamic acid residues, which method comprises the steps of subjecting the substrate to a deamidation process, and subjecting the substrate to the action of a specific acting proteolytic enzyme.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for improving the solubility of vegetable proteins. More specifically, the invention relates to methods for the solubilization of proteins in vegetable protein sources, which methods comprise treating the vegetable protein source with an efficient amount of one or more phytase enzymes, and treating the vegetable protein source with an efficient amount of one or more proteolytic enzymes. In another aspect, the invention provides animal feed additives comprising a phytase and one or more proteolytic enzymes.
Abstract:
A method for hydrolysing a vegetable or animal protein by incubating with a proteolytic enzyme preparation derived from Aspergillus oryzae and comprising at least five proteolytic components each having an approximate molecular weight, respectively, selected from 23 kD, 27kD, 31 kD, 32 kD, 35 kD, 38 kD, 42 kD, 47 kD, 53 kD, and 100 kD, for example Flavourzyme , provides a protein hydrolysate useful in or as a food product such as mother milk substitute, cheese, HVP, meat extract, flavouring agent, and process aid for fermentation of food products, or a non-food product such as pet food, cosmetics. By the method is obtained a high degree of hydrolysis (DH), flavour development, and a high protein solubility (PSI).
