  • Publication number: 20220264907
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for obtaining a protein from a plant material, wherein the method comprises the steps of i) mechanically disrupting the plant cells to obtain a plant juice in the presence of a reducing agent, ii) treating the plant juice to cause aggregation of chloroplast membranes, iii) removing the aggregated chloroplast membranes by precipitation and/or microfiltration, iv) subjecting the plant juice to ultrafiltration, and v) subjecting the soluble plant protein concentrate to hydrophobic column adsorption to remove residual chlorophyll, phenolic compounds and off-odors in a single column passage. The present invention also pertains to an apparatus and system for plant protein isolation based on this method. The isolated proteins can be economically obtained in batch scale and in large scale. Further, the invention is directed to a protein obtained by the method of the invention, a food product comprising thereof, and a use thereof.

  • Patent number: 7491410
    Abstract: Transglutaminase inhibitor containing composition obtainable from milk, in particular from a whey fraction obtainable from skimmed milk by forming a curd from the milk, separating the curd from the whey in a centrifugation step followed by subjecting the whey to an ultrafiltration step or, alternatively, by subjecting the skimmed milk to a diafiltration step, a method for the production of a transglutaminase inhibitor and the use of the transglutaminase inhibitor in the production of food or pharmaceutical compositions and to the use in the preparation of a medicament for the treatment of pathologies.
