  • Publication number: 20080241878
    Abstract: The present invention provides methods for enzymatic cross-linking of a protein comprising performing a reaction for enzymatic cross-linking of said protein in the presence of a phenolic saccharide, wherein said reaction comprises the step of forming protein-protein cross-links. The present invention further provides a cross-linked protein obtainable by a method according to the invention as well as a protein that is cross-linked by a phenolic saccharide and the use of such proteins in a foodstuff. The invention also provides a foodstuff comprising a cross-linked protein of the invention as well as the use of a phenolic saccharide as a cross-linking agent for proteins.

  • Publication number: 20050026999
    Abstract: The invention relates to compositions comprising lactic acid esters of mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids i.e. LACTEM compositions. The invention relates especially to novel LACTEM, which include 5 to 95% by weight unsaturated fatty acid(s), as well as to emulsifiers containing LACTEM with unsaturated fatty acids. The use of unsaturated fatty acids in LACTEM improves firmness, volume and/or texture of food and non-food products produced with said LACTEM.
