Abstract: The invention relates to a method for recovering a stress protein from a plant, comprising: obtaining a liquid comprising the stress protein from the plant; precipitating one or more components other than the stress protein from the liquid; adding a fibrous filter aid and a mineral powder to the liquid; then subjecting the liquid comprising the stress protein, precipitated component(s), the fibrous filter aid and the mineral powder to a first filtration step over a filter, thereby separating the precipitate, fibrous filter aid and mineral powder from the filtrate comprising the stress protein; thereafter subjecting the filtrate to a further filtration step; and thereafter purifying the stress protein.

Abstract: The invention relates to a skin-care product comprising at least one component selected from the group of heat shock protein from alfalfa and heat shock protein hydrolysate from alfalfa. The invention further relates to the use of shock protein from alfalfa or hydrolysate thereof for slowing down the aging of the skin and/or for rejuvenating the skin.

Abstract: The invention relates to a heat shock protein from alfalfa and/or a hydrolysate of a heat shock protein from alfalfa in the manufacture of a food product for the prophylactic or therapeutic treatment of a chronic inflammatory disorder. Further, the invention relates to a clinical food product comprising heat shock protein from alfalfa and/or a hydrolysate of a heat shock protein from alfalfa.
