Abstract: The inventors have developed a method using protein engineering to produce lipolytic enzymes having a relatively high activity for one ester bond in an amphiphilic substrate with two lipophilic groups) and a relatively low activity for the ester bond in an amphiphilic substrate with one lipophilic group, e.g. a relatively high phospholipase activity and a relatively low lysophospholipase activity.

Abstract: This invention relates to wort making for brewing and non alcoholic beverages. More particularly it relates to methods for preparing a wort comprising a high level of free amino acids employing use of various enzymes including different exogenous proteases, for example an endoprotease and an exopeptidase.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for production of cooked vegetable food materials having reduced levels of acrylamide.

Abstract: The formation of acrylamide during heat treatment in the production of a food product is reduced by treating the raw material with an enzyme before the heat treatment. The enzyme is capable of reacting on asparagine or glutamine (optionally substituted) as a substrate or is a laccase or a peroxidase.

Abstract: The present invention describes a method of improving the mashing process in the production of clarified juice from a plant material comprising: providing a plant material; crushing and/or chopping and/or slicing the plant material into smaller pieces; contacting the smaller pieces with a pectinase activity and a rhamnogalacturonan acetyl esterase (RGAE) activity and clarifying the juice. Further contacting the said plant material with arabinanase activity is provided. In another aspect, use of combination of pectinase activity, RGAE activity and arabinanase activity in the production of juice from a plant material is described.
