Patent number: 10292410Abstract: Moisture is retained in cooked or thawed food by adding to the food an aqueous suspension of animal muscle protein obtained from animal muscle tissue. The aqueous suspension is obtained by mixing comminuted animal muscle tissue with a food grade base to form an aqueous basic solution of animal muscle protein. The basic solution is mixed with a food grade acid to precipitate the protein in an aqueous composition. The precipitated protein then is comminuted to form an aqueous suspension of comminuted animal muscle protein.Type: GrantFiled: January 22, 2018Date of Patent: May 21, 2019Assignee: Proteus Industries IncInventors: Stephen D. Kelleher, William R. Fielding, Wayne S. Saunders, Peter G. Williamson

Patent number: 10285423Abstract: Moisture is retained in cooked or thawed food by adding to the food an aqueous suspension of animal muscle protein obtained from animal muscle tissue. The aqueous suspension is obtained by mixing comminuted animal muscle tissue with a food grade acid to form an aqueous acidic solution of animal muscle protein. The acidic solution is mixed with a food grade base to precipitate the protein in an aqueous composition. The precipitated protein then is comminuted to form an aqueous suspension of comminuted animal muscle protein.Type: GrantFiled: May 31, 2018Date of Patent: May 14, 2019Assignee: Proteus Industries, Inc.Inventors: Stephen D. Kelleher, William R. Fielding, Wayne S. Saunders, Peter G. Williamson

Patent number: 10182585Abstract: A product for cooking a food in oil and/or fat is provided. An adjusted pH protein suspension is produced in an aqueous or dry form and includes myofibrillar proteins and sarcoplasmic proteins substantially free of myofibrils and sarcomeres. The amount of oil and/or fat absorbed by the food during cooking is substantially reduced while the food retains its color and taste.Type: GrantFiled: May 2, 2016Date of Patent: January 22, 2019Assignee: Proteus Industries, Inc.Inventors: Stephen D Kelleher, William R Fielding, Wayne S Saunders, Peter G Williamson

Publication number: 20180271127Abstract: Moisture is retained in cooked or thawed food by adding to the food an aqueous suspension of animal muscle protein obtained from animal muscle tissue. The aqueous suspension is obtained by mixing comminuted animal muscle tissue with a food grade acid to form an aqueous acidic solution of animal muscle protein. The acidic solution is mixed with a food grade base to precipitate the protein in an aqueous composition. The precipitated protein then is comminuted to form an aqueous suspension of comminuted animal muscle protein.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 31, 2018Publication date: September 27, 2018Applicant: Proteus Industries, Inc.Inventors: Stephen D.
