Plant Zeins TRIZ Cases
- Corn Protein Fractionation for Food-Grade Zein-Depleted Fractions
Destarched corn gluten meal fractionation with aqueous alcohol yields a food-usable zein-depleted protein fraction with much higher protein content.
- Zein Protein Hydrolysate Solubility via Enzymatic Hydrolysis
Enzymatic hydrolysis overcomes poor corn protein solubility by breaking peptide bonds to create stable, soluble hydrolysates for food applications.
- Alpha-Prolamin Extraction via Enzymatic Hydrolysis
Enzymatic hydrolysis isolates alpha-prolamin from corn gluten meal, eliminating solvent loss and energy-intensive evaporation steps.
