Abstract
This invention provides a high quality soluble protein composition and the processes of making the same. According to the described methods, a non-pumpable broth may be converted into a pumpable broth by using a filtration means. The resulting compositions are shelf-stable, easy to use and have excellent nutritional values as compared to other protein products.
Claims19
A method of making a pumpable composition, comprising:
- (a) applying a starting composition to a filtration means, said filtration means having a pore size of 500 nanometers (nm) or smaller, said starting composition being prepared from an animal source,
- (b) allowing the starting composition to pass through the filtration means, and
- (c) collecting permeate that passes through said filtration means to obtain said pumpable composition,
- wherein said composition obtained in step (c) is pumpable at refrigeration temperature, and wherein hydroxyproline constitutes less than 3% (w/w) of total amino acids in said pumpable composition obtained in step (c).
