1. 16. Enzyme-aided production of lipid emulsifiers from side-streams of the food industry: rapeseed press cake and oat oil

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (master)

   Author : Renske Bouma; [2017]
   Keywords : Lipid emulsifiers; enzymes; side-streams food industry; rapeseed press cake; oat oil; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The goal of this thesis project was to utilize side-streams of the food industry, namely rapeseed cake and oat oil, by enzyme-aided production of lipid emulsifiers. The first objective was to extract lipids from the rapeseed press cake and increase protein yield, by adding an enzymatic step to the already existing protein extraction procedure developed by the food department of Lund University.
