Preparation of polypeptides from soy protein through hydrolysis with a microbial, alkaline, proteinase using enzyme concentrations of 4-25 Anson units per kg of soy protein, a substrate concentrtion of 5-20% w/w soy protein and pH 7-10, hydrolyzing to a (DH) degree of hydrolysis 8-15% then inactivating the enzyme by addition of a food grade acid, and thereafter recovering the supernatant polypeptide solution. Preferred are the proteinase from B. licheniformis, pH 7.5-8.5, 8-15% substrate, and hydrolysis to a DH 9.5-10.5 %. The product is free from bitterness. |

DETAILED DESCRIPTION What is claimed is: 1.
Process for the preparation of polypeptides from soy protein soluble in aqueous media at pH's in the range of from 2 to 7 which are suitable for use as an additive for low protein acid food products, which process comprises hydrolyzing soy protein with a microbial, alkaline proteinase in concentration ranging from 4 to 25 Anson units per kg of soy protein at a substrate concentration of between 5 and 20% w/w soy protein, at a pH in the range of from 7.
5 to 8.
5, until a degree of hydrolysis in the range of from about 8 to 15%, is attained, whereafter the enzyme is inactivated by reduction of pH with a food grade acid, then recovering the supernatant from the precipitate.
2.
The process according to claim 1, which further comprises the use of alkaline proteinase from Bacillus licheniformis.
3.
The process according to claim 1, which further comprises hydrolysing at constant pH.
4.
The process according to claim 1, which further comprises hydrolysing to a DH between 9 and 12%.
5.
The process according to claim 4, which further comprises hydrolysing to a DH between 9.
5 and 10.
5%.
6.
The process according to claim 1, wherein the enzyme is inactivated by acid addition to a pH below about 4.
2.
7.
The process according to claim 1, which further comprises using of citric acid as the food grade acid for inactivation of the proteinase.
Description:
THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of polypeptides which are soluble in aqueous media with pH's in the range of from 2 to 7 and which are derived from soy protein and are suitable for use as an additive for low protein acid food products, and to the polypeptides so prepared.
Examples of low protein acid food products are beverages, including soft drinks, for example carbonated soft drinks, marmelade and jams.
In the low protein acid food products arts, there is a need for cheap (or relatively cheap) polypeptides which are soluble at the pH of the food product and which are derived from soy protein, in order to enhance the nutritional value of the low protein acid food product
