  • Patent number: 4141996
    Abstract: A process is disclosed for producing an improved modified plant protein having thermoplastic and forming properties similar to casein and caseinate salts. The process comprises making an aqueous slurry of a carbohydrate containing plant protein material, fermenting the slurry with yeast to generate carbon dioxide, reacting the carbon dioxide with a hydroxide to form a carbonate, adjusting the pH, reacting the carbonate with the protein, admixing the slurry with a peroxide, neutralizing the slurry, and then removing steam volatile flavor components. The process produces a liquid product which is improved in odor, taste and color.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 13, 1976
    Date of Patent: February 27, 1979
    Assignee: The Quaker Oats Company
    Inventors: Keith L. Chandler, Roy G. Hyldon, Surinder Kumar, John P. O'Mahony
  • Patent number: 4105799

  • Patent number: 4038437
    Abstract: A process is disclosed for producing an improved modified plant protein having thermoplastic and forming properties similar to casein and caseinate salts. The process comprises making an aqueous slurry of a plant protein material and an alkali metal carbonate, adjusting the pH, reacting the carbonate with the protein, admixing the slurry with a peroxide, neutralizing the slurry, removing steam volatile flavor components from the slurry, and then drying the neutralized slurry. The process produces a product which is improved in odor, taste and color.
