Masters of protein extraction

Did you know that the quinoa protein contains all of the 10 essential amino acids? Therefore, the valuable protein stream from Speximo’s EQMULSE^TM production can be used to increase nutritional value of food grade products.

In a student project performed at Lund University in collaboration with Wageningen University & Research, quinoa protein was successfully extracted while simultaneously ensuring the EQMULSE^TM stream remained intact. Further, the protein was used to greatly enhance the nutritional value of a vegan food product. No waste and improved nutritional profile!
