Abstract: An aqueous solution of a pulse protein product having a protein content of at least about 60 wt % (N×6.25) d.b. which is soluble in aqueous media at a pH of less than about 4.4 and heat stable at that pH range is adjusted in pH to a pH of about 6 to about 8. The resulting product is further processed by drying the product, recovering and drying any precipitated pulse protein material, heat treating and then drying the product, or heat treating the product and recovering and drying any precipitated pulse protein material.

Abstract: Emulsified foods are provided in which whole egg or egg yolk, conventionally employed to formulate such foods, such as mayonnaises, is replaced, in whole or in part, by a canola protein isolate, which may be a PMM-derived canola protein isolate, the canola protein isolate directly obtained from the supernatant from the formation of PMM or the canola protein isolate obtained following heat treatment.

Abstract: A soy protein product having a protein content of at least about 60 wt % (N×6.25) d.b., preferably an isolate, is formed by a procedure in which soy protein is extracted from a soy source material using an aqueous calcium chloride solution at low pH, generally about 1.5 to about 5, and separating the resulting aqueous soy protein solution from residual soy protein source. The resulting clarified aqueous soy protein solution may be diluted and the pH adjusted within the range of 1.5-5.0. The solution may be concentrated by ultrafiltration, diafiltered and then dried to provide the soy protein product. The soy protein product is soluble in acidic medium and produces transparent, heat stable solutions and hence may be used for protein fortification of soft drinks and sports drinks.

Abstract: An aqueous solution of a soy protein product having a protein content of at least about 60 wt % (N×6.25) d.b. which is completely soluble in aqueous media at a pH of less than about 4.4 and heat stable at that pH range is adjusted in pH to a pH of about 6.1 to about 8. The resulting product is further processed by drying the product, recovering and drying any precipitated soy protein material, heat treating and then drying the product, or heat treating the product and recovering and drying any precipitated soy protein material.

Abstract: The supernatant from the deposition of canola protein micellar mass is processed to provide a canola protein product having a protein content of about 60 to less than about 90 wt % (N×6.25) protein on a dry weight basis and which is soluble in an aqueous acidic environment.

Abstract: A novel canola protein isolate consisting predominantly of 2S canola protein and having equal to better solubility properties and improved clarity properties in aqueous media, has an increased proportion of 2S canola protein and a decreased proportion of 7S canola protein. The novel canola protein isolate is formed by isoelectric precipitation of aqueous supernatant from canola protein micelle formation and precipitation, to effect precipitation of 7S protein which is sedimented and removed.

Abstract: Canola protein isolate is recovered from canola oil seeds by crushing the oil seeds and extracting the crushed canola oil seeds. Fat co-extracted from the crushed oil seeds is removed from the aqueous canola protein solution which then is processed by the micellar route to obtain the canola protein isolate.

Abstract: A soy protein product, which may be an isolate, produces transparent heat-stable solutions at low pH values and is useful for the fortification of soft drinks and sports drinks without precipitation of protein. The soy protein product is obtained by extracting a soy protein source material with an aqueous calcium salt solution to form an aqueous soy protein solution, separating the aqueous soy protein solution from residual soy protein source, adjusting the pH of the aqueous soy protein solution to a pH of about 1.5 to about 4.4 to produce an acidified clear soy protein solution, which may be dried, following optional concentration and diafiltration, to provide the soy protein product.

Abstract: Canola protein isolates are provided which contain both albumin and globulin protein fractions that are soluble and transparent in an acidic aqueous environment. The canola protein isolates are completely soluble in water at low pH, low in phytic acid and useful in products for human consumption, pet foods and aquaculture.

Abstract: A composition which permits protein fortification of citrus juices, particularly orange juice, or beverages containing citrus juices, to be carried out without separation of the juice or beverage and the rapid development of a clear or nearly clear liquid layer on top of the juice or beverage, comprises a soy protein product having a protein content of at least about 60 wt % (N×6.25), preferably at least about 90 wt %, and preferably at least about 100 wt %, which is completely soluble in water at an acid pH value of less than about 4.4 and which is heat stable in aqueous solution, and at least one of at least one calcium salt and at least one organic acid.

Abstract: A canola protein isolate useful in aquaculture is formed by a procedure in which canola oil seed meal is extracted to cause solubilization of protein in the canola oil seed meal to form an aqueous protein solution having a protein content of about 5 to about 40 g/L and a pH of about 5 to about 6.8. After separation of the aqueous protein solution from the residual canola oil seed meal, the protein concentration is increased to at least about 50 g/L while maintaining the ionic strength substantially constant by using a selective membrane technique. The concentrated protein solution is dried to provide a canola protein isolate having a protein content of at least about 90 wt % (N×6.25) d.b.

Abstract: A novel canola protein isolate consisting predominantly of 2S canola protein and having equal to better solubility properties and improved clarity properties, has an increased proportion of 2S canola protein and a decreased proportion of 7S canola protein. The novel canola protein isolate is formed by heat treatment or isoelectric precipitation of aqueous supernatant from canola protein micelle formation and precipitation, to effect precipitation of 7S protein which is sedimented and removed. Alternatively, the novel canola protein isolate may be derived from a selective membrane procedure in which an aqueous canola protein solution containing 12S, 7S and 2S canola proteins is subjected to a first selective membrane technique to retain 12S and 7S canola proteins in a retentate, which is dried to provide a canola protein isolate consisting predominantly of 7S canola protein, and to permit 2S canola protein to pass through the membrane.
