  • Natural extract containing xanthohumol, method for the production thereof and products produced therefrom
    Patent number: 8303999
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing an extract containing xanthohumol (XN), which is obtained from toasted cereal products, cereal malt, coffee or cocoa.

  • Protein-containing preparation which can be biotechnologically produced, method for the production thereof, and use of the same as a food ingredient
    Publication number: 20060127560
    Abstract: The invention relates to a protein-containing preparation of plant origin, having significantly improved sensoric properties and optionally also nutritional and physiological properties and undiminished good technofunctional properties. Said preparation can be obtained by fermentation with a lactic acid bacterium and is suitable as a versatile food ingredient. It contains at least 60% of protein of plant origin, in relation to the dry weight, a lacteous aroma corresponding to a quantity of at least 1 ppm diacetyl, and lactic acid. The invention also relates to a method for producing one such protein preparation, whereby a plant starting material containing at least 60 wt. % of plant protein, in relation to the dry weight of the material, is fermented in a manner known per se with a micro-organism producing a lactic acid in the presence of at least one nutrient source, nitrogen source and/or mineral source required for the micro-organism.
