Title:
PROTEIN HYDROLYSATES AND METHOD OF MAKING THE SAME
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2012254094
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
To provide protein hydrolysates and methods of making the same.
The methods of making protein hydrolysates are described. The methods may include the steps of providing a solution comprising protein, and adjusting a pH of the solution to about 10.4 or more to form a basic protein solution. Additional steps may include adding a protease enzyme to the basic protein solution that converts at least a portion of the protein to protein hydrolysates. Protein hydrolysate compositions and water-soluble food additives are also described. The additives may include a mixture of protein hydrolysates formed by protein hydrolysis of a protein substrate. The protein hydrolysates may have an average molecular weight of about 2,000 to about 10,000 Daltons.
