FRACTIONATION OF ALLYL ISOTHIOCYANATE, P-HYDROXYBENZYL-ISOTHIOCYANATE, PROTEIN AND FIBER FROM MUSTARD

摘要

Yellow or oriental mustard seed can be fractionated to produce allyl isothiocyanate and p-hydroxybenzyl isothiocyanate, along with prepared mustard products, mustar d protein and dietary fiber. Processes for the production of these various fractions from mustard seed stock are disclosed. The seed stock is comminuted with water to yield a n activated slurry in which the enzyme myrosinase hyrdolises and deteriorates glycosinolates in the seed stock to isothiocynates. Remaining slurry can then be sterilized and further conventionally processed to yield improved finished mustard products.
