Method for Isolating ferritin from vegetables or vegetables Processing Chain ferritin; method to isolate Plant and animal material; method for determining amount of Iron from ferritin; method for treating Iron deficiency in the body to increase iron content; method Ro; ferritin isolated; and its use.
This invention provides methods of isolating ferritin from plant and animal material. The isolated ferritin can be administered to humans or animals in need of iron, and can be used to treat or supplement iron deficiency. The isolated ferritin can be used in industrial applications, such as increasing the iron content in heat-processed food or beverages. The methods of the invention also include quantitation of iron derived from plant or animal ferritin.<;p>;mé;todo para el aislar ferritina a partir de una legumbre o una cadena de procesamiento de leguminosa , o materia vegetal que comprende los siguientes pasos: (a) separar la legumbre o la cadena de procesamiento de legumbres en fracciones de legumbres solubles e insolubles; (b) añ;adir un tampó;n salino neutro a la fracció;n de legumbre insoluble para obtener una solució;n de legumbre insoluble; (c) aclarar la solució;n de legumbre insoluble del paso (b) en fracciones de legumbre solubles e insolubles; (d) tratar enzimá;ticamente con una o má;s enzimas glucosidasa la solució;n de legumbre soluble aclarada del paso (c); (e) fraccionar la solució;n de legumbre soluble aclarada y tratada enzimá;ticamente, del paso (d) para eliminar los componentes de tipo no de ferritina; y (f) concentrar la ferritina aislada a partir de la solució;n de legumbres soluble fraccionada del (e).<;/p>;
