Inhaltsangabe

Plant Proteins: Nutritional Aspects and Processing Applications covers various methods used to extract and purify plant proteins for nutrition, health, and new product development. The book identifies techniques and modifications such as fermentation, radiation, and ball-milling to characterize plant protein structure and functionality. Readers will learn how each method serves a different purpose in enhancing flavor, texture, and/or shelf-life. A special focus on plant-based meat is discussed, along with insights on how plant-based proteins effect digestive wellness and the microbiome. Additional sections address the nano-reduction of plant-based proteins and their role in the delivery of different bioactive compounds and health benefits.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

The increasing demand for plant-based products in the food industry that demonstrate
sustainability, palatability, and cost-effectiveness has fuelled research on novel plant
proteins. Plant Proteins: Nutritional Aspects and Processing Applications takes a deep
dive into the various methods used to extract and purify plant proteins, highlighting their
benefits for nutrition, health, and new product development.

This book identifies techniques and modifications, such as fermentation, radiation, and ball
milling, used to characterize plant protein structure and functionality. Readers will learn
how each method serves a different purpose in enhancing flavor, functionality, texture,
and/or shelf life. This book provides a special focus on plant-based meat, along with
insights into the effects of plant-based proteins on digestive wellness and the microbiome.
In addition, the authors address nanoreduction of plant-based proteins and their role in
delivering various bioactive compounds and promoting health benefits.
