The consumption of proteins of vegetal origin has been increasing due to the demand for foods with low caloric content and also by the increase in the number of vegetarian / vegan consumers. For this reason, the number of researches related to vegetable proteins has increased. Due to its amino acid composition and structure, pulse proteins have low solubility and digestibility, with limit…
The growth in the consumption of proteins of plant origin led to a search for new sources that could replace and supply a demand for proteins of animal origin, moreover, attributed to this, there is an attempt to use by-products or residues of the industry for technological applications, adding its value. Considering this, a small band of beans fits into this question. Because it is chara…
Abstract - The search for a life more healthful and the increase of the adepts the vegetarian and vegan practices did made whit that the food industry renews. Within that renovation, it is from new macronutrient sources, for example, the proteins. Thus, the vegetable proteins have become popular and hard candidates for meeting the needs this population. The lentil is a legume protein that…
The growing tendency towards a diet free or reduced of animal products has aroused interest for vegetable protein sources. Thus, pulse proteins such as lentils, chickpeas and beans, due to their high protein content, have become viable options. However, proteins obtained by the traditional alkaline extraction method may show impaired functionality when considering their commercial applica…
