Lupin Platform Inc.

$145,000.00

Optimization of Lupin Protein Processing to increase profitability

FY 2024-25 · 2024-04-15

Summary
This project will focus on optimizing protein extraction parameters to eliminate the off-flavours and bitterness in lupin flour and protein utilization for CPG product development. The resulting flour and protein concentrates will be tested for their nutritional and functional properties. Application of the flour and protein concentrates will be carried to assess the impact of the optimized extraction parameters.

Description (French)
Ce projet se concentrera sur l’optimisation des paramètres d’extraction des protéines afin d’éliminer les mauvais goûts et l’amertume de la farine de lupin et sur l’utilisation des protéines pour le développement de produits de consommation courante. Les concentrés de farine et de protéines obtenus seront testés pour leurs propriétés nutritionnelles et fonctionnelles. L’application de la farine et des concentrés de protéines sera effectuée pour évaluer l’impact des paramètres d’extraction optimisés.
