PROCESS OF PREPARING YEAST PROTEIN ISOLATE HAVING A REDUCED NUCLEIC ACID CONTENT BY A THERMAL PROCESS

摘要

This application involves a process of reducing nucleic acid (RNA) in yeast products by heating the protein containing portion of the yeast to over 100 DEG C. for 10 seconds to 60 minutes at a pH of about 6 to about 8. A novel yeast cell wall low RNA protein product is disclosed as is a low RNA protein isolate.
