摘要:
Hydrothermal processes are provided for preparing hybrid proteins containingaltered SS/SH bonds, thereby yielding hybrid proteins having enhanced functionaland/or nutritional properties. The processes involve initial homogenizationof a protein-containing slurry containing at least two proteins, followed byhigh pressure steam treatment in a jet cooker (16) or similar device in order toheat shock and thereby alter the conformation of some of the proteins, followedby a holding period to allow the proteins to reform, whereupon the proteins arecooled. Plant and animal proteins may be processed, and the starting slurry canbe pH- modified and/or supplemented with one or more additional ingredients(e.g., salts, phosphates, fatty acids, polysaccharides, alcohols, aromaticcompounds). The hybrid proteins are useful as food ingredients (e.g., solubility,wetability, dispersibility, foaming, emulsification, viscosity, gelationor thickening agents).
