摘要:
The invention relates to a microbiological process for producing a soluble protein fraction (SPF) from cereal doughs. Also described are a protein fraction obtainable by the process of the invention and its uses for the preparation of a nutraceutical and pharmaceutical composition for the treatment of coeliac disease.
摘要:
The texture and flavor of bran and germ for the production of whole wheat flour and for the production of baked goods containing whole wheat flour is improved by treating bran and germ with water and an enzyme composition comprising xylanase, pentosanase, or mixtures thereof to hydrate the bran and germ and to enzymatically convert insoluble fiber of the bran and germ into soluble fiber and sugars. The enzymatic conversion is conducted so as to decrease the water holding capacity of the bran and germ and provides a bran and germ product having reduced grittiness and a reduced whole wheat flavor, while avoiding adverse effects on baking functionality. The enzymatic treatment with the xylanase and/or pentosanase may be initiated upon whole wheat berries or grains during tempering, or it may be initiated upon a separated bran and germ fraction obtained after grinding or milling of whole wheat berries or grains.
摘要:
A process for the preparation of a corn-based foodstuff, the process comprising the step of contacting a corn-based flour with a xylanase enzyme, as defined herein, such that a xylan-containing material native to the corn is degraded;, is disclosed. Flours, masas and masa foodstuffs, especially tortillas, produced by the process are also disclosed.
摘要:
A process for preparing a liquid oat base or drink of improved soluble oat protein content from an oats material, in particular an oats material that has not been heat treated in a humid state, comprises solubilizing oat protein in an aqueous solvent by means of protein-deamidase. Also disclosed is a corresponding liquid oat base and uses thereof.
摘要:
A fungal alpha-amylase is provided from Aspergillus fumigatus (AfAmyl). AfAmyl has an optimal pH of 3.5 and is operable at 30 - 75 degrees C, allowing the enzyme to be used in combination with a glucoamylase and an isoamylase in a saccharification reaction. This obviates the necessity of running a saccharification reaction as a batch process, where the pH and temperature must be readjusted for optimal use of the alpha-amylase or glucoamylase. AfAmyl also catalyzes the saccharification of starch substrates to an oligosaccharide composition significantly enriched in DP2 and (DPI + DP2) compared to the products of saccharification catalyzed by an alpha-amylase from Aspergillus kawachii. This facilitates the utilization of the oligosaccharide composition by a fermenting organism in a simultaneous saccharification and fermentation process, for example.
摘要:
The present invention relates generally to a beverage for human consumption that can be a meal replacer, such as for breakfast. It is based on cereal grains, and preferably on a combination of wholegrain cereals. Cereal grains are ground into a flour, digested with enzymes, and cooked and mixed with a milk- like liquid, to provide a drinkable breakfast replacement, or convenience refreshment. The enzymes are selected from any two or more of an: alpha- amylase, fungal alpha-amylase, gluco-amylase, protease, or cellulase. The production process preferably operates with at least one step where the combination of these enzymes together digest the grains at a p H and temperature suitable for each member of the combination.
摘要:
The present invention provides methods for treating phytoglycogen-containing materials to generate phytoglycogen compositions with enhanced emulsiiication attribute. One method comprises contacting a phytoglycogen-containing material with at least one protease. The other method comprises heat treatment of a phytoglycogen-containing material, such as corn kernels. The two methods can be applied independently, or can be applied in combination. Applications of phytoglycogen compositions are also included.
摘要:
The present invention relates to instant drink powders comprising a primary ingredient of particles or agglomerated particles having a particle size below 500 µm, a hydrolyzed whole grain composition, an alpha-amylase or fragments thereof, which alpha-amylase or fragments thereof show no hydrolytic activity towards dietary fibers when in the active state; and a moisture content of at most 5% (w/w) of the instant drink powder.
摘要:
The present invention is directed to methods for improving flour quality (e.g., a flour correction process) by treating flour with a raw starch degrading enzyme.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a nutritional product comprising a hydrolyzed whole grain composition, an alpha-amylase or fragment thereof, which alpha-amylase or fragment thereof shows no hydrolytic activity towards dietary fibers when in the active state and wherein said nutritional product is fortified with at least 2 essential minerals and at least 4 essential vitamins.
