PRODUCTION OF HYDROLYSED PROTEINS

摘要

A process for the production of a hydrolysed protein which comprises hydrolysing a plant or animal protein with hydrochloric acid to give a slurry and then, before or after filtering off the residual unhydrolysed material, treating with alkali to a pH of from 8 to 14 and holding for a period of time to reduce the amount of undesirable chlorinated compounds and readjusting to a pH of from 4 to 7 to give a liquid hydrolysed protein filtrate.
