  • Patent number: 10092625
    Abstract: Heat-treated liquid enteral nutritional composition with a low monovalent metal ion content are provided that contain micellar casein and optionally caseinate, and in which the total amount of monovalent metal ions is less than 25 mg/g of protein. Also, heat-treated liquid enteral nutritional compositions are disclosed comprising 10 to 20 g of protein per 100 ml of the composition, in which all or a major part of said protein comprises micellar casein. Also, a method is disclosed for producing the composition according to the invention, comprising a step wherein an aqueous protein solution in which all or a major part of said protein comprises micellar casein, is subjected to an evaporation step.

  • Patent number: 9492502
    Abstract: A process of producing a composition comprising at least two different proteins is disclosed, of which at least one is a coagulating protein, such as a casein and/or a caseinate, and at least one is an anti-coagulating protein, such as a leguminous protein (for example pea and/or soy) combined or not with whey protein, comprising the steps of: a) heat-sterilizing a first liquid component comprising the coagulating protein, b) heat-sterilizing a second liquid component comprising the anti-coagulating protein, and c) mixing the first component with the second component to obtain a mixture thereof. The obtained mixture is useful as a food constituent having reduced coagulation in the upper gastro-intestinal tract, more in particular in the stomach.

  • Publication number: 20150164985
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process of producing a composition comprising at least two different proteins, of which at least one is a casein and at least one is an anti-coagulating protein, comprising the steps of: a) heat-sterilising a first liquid component which comprises said casein in an amount of at least 85 wt % of the total protein content of the first component, b) heat-sterilising a second liquid component comprising said anti-coagulating protein, and c) mixing said first component with said second component to obtain a mixture thereof. The obtained mixture is useful as a food constituent having reduced coagulation in the upper gastro-intestinal tract, more in particular in the stomach.
