According to the present invention, provided is a method for improving solubility of a protein in water by irradiating the protein with an electron beam. According to the method, the solubility of the protein in water is improved without alteration and decomposition of the protein and an associated body which is not generated in an ordinary state is formed, so that protein which is stable even in an aqueous solution can be obtained. |

Process for the formation of a plasticized proteinaceous material in which a plasticizer component is selectively matched with a protein component to form a blend. The blend is heated under controlled shear conditions to produce the plasticized proteinaceous material having the plasticizer component uniformly distributed within the protein component. The plasticized proteinaceous material is used for a variety of purposes including the production of gums and confectionery compositions. |

Food products, typically having a moisture content above 50% by weight, are prepared which contain polysaccharide hydrocolloid and insoluble fiber at a weight ratio of 1:0.2-3.5:1.1-4.5. These materials are preferably added to the food product as an aqueous dispersion. The aqueous dispersion preferably also contains a protein material. This invention is particularly useful in the preparation of fat-free food products. |

An edible plastic composition contains at least 5 wt. % of heat-denatured protein, the heat-denatured protein mainly being a dispersion in the form of non-aggregated protein-based macrocolloidal particles having a size in the range of from 0.1 to 10 microns. It is suitable as a low calorie fat replacer in food products and for topical applications and is prepared by successive heating and concentrating steps in which an aqueous composition comprising less than 15% by weight of the water, of heat-denaturable protein is at least partly denatured and the protein concentration of the aqueous composition is at least doubled and at least part of any soluble protein is removed.The present process for instance offers the advantage of not requiring complicated apparatus, and moreover is easy to control. |

A method for the production of formed food products of a microfibrillar milk protein, which comprises mixing an aqueous gel of a milk protein comprising mainly calcium caseinate with a specific amount of dehydrating agent (e.g. sodium chloride) and a specific amount of a dispersant (e.g. dextrin, sodium caseinate) and optionally fats and oils at a specified temperature and forming the mixture at the same temperature range into the desired shapes. The formed food products are obtained in various states of from comparatively soft products (e.g. imitation cheese) to comparative hard products (e.g. imitation jerky) by controlling the temperature in the mixing and forming steps and/or the amounts of the dehydrating agent and dispersant. |

It has been discovered that the combination of certain polyvalent metal ions with certain proteinaceous foaming agents will significantly enhance the efficacy of proteinaceous foaming compositions. The present invention affords the means for achieving significantly improved protein foam from vegetable protein hydrolyzates which normally fail to possess the foaming efficacy of conventional proteinaceous foam agents such as egg albumen and caseinates. The improved foamed products may be obtained by employing a combination of polyvalent ions such as calcium and zinc with enzymatically hydrolyzed soy protein whipping agents which are characterized as being soluble throughout the pH 4 to 7 range. The proteinaceous foaming composition may be utilized for a variety of industrial and food applications. The present foaming compositions are particularly useful in providing coated paper products. |

A high polymer material, e.g. polyvinylpyrrolidone, is mixed with an aqueous protein slurry composed of helical protein molecules. The pH of the slurry is then raised to about 8 to 12 to allow ingress of the high polymer material internally in the protein molecules. Thereafter, the slurry pH is reduced to about 5 to less than 8 to entrap a portion of the high polymer material within the protein molecules. |

A modified protein composition which is produced by contacting a water-soluble protein, such as plant seed proteins, cow milk protein, animal meat proteins, fish meat proteins, egg proteins and microorganisms proteins, with a cysteine-enriched plastein in an amount of at least 1% by weight on the basis of the water-soluble protein in an aqueous medium, and if desired, heating the resultant under a mild condition (e.g. at a temperature of 40.degree. to 90.degree. C.), said cysteine-enriched plastein being produced by hydrolyzing a protein with an enzyme having an endopeptidase activity and subjecting the hydrolyzate to dehydration-condensation with a protease having an esterase activity in the presence of an activated cysteine (e.g. lower alkyl cysteinate, N-acetyl-L-cysteine or L-cysteinyl-L-cysteine). |

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, drying the neutralized slurry, and then blending the dried modified proteinaceous slurry with an unmodified proteinaceous material. The process produces a product which is improved in odor, taste and color. |

Debranched amylopectin and debranched low-DE maltodextrin have been found to cause protein to aggregate in solution. Such aggregation, which can lead to precipitation or flocculation of the protein, is useful for instance in aerated aqueous fat emulsions, e.g. ice cream and whipped cream, where the stability of the product can be altered as desired. |
