Abstract
The present invention relates to a process for reducing an amount of phospholipids in an oil composition using an enzyme having phospholipase A2 activity.
Claims11
A process for reducing an amount of phospholipids in an oil composition, the process comprising:
- a) providing an oil composition containing an original amount of phospholipids,
- b) contacting the oil composition with a polypeptide having phospholipase A2 activity and water,
- c) incubating the oil composition for 5 to 180 minutes at a temperature of 75° C. to 90° C. to obtain an oil composition having a reduced amount of phospholipids compared to the original amount of phospholipids present in the oil composition
- wherein:
- the polypeptide having phospholipase A2 activity comprises an amino acid sequence comprising at least 80% identity to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:2;
- and the process is free of emulsification.
