Impact of spring rape varieties on protein extraction from press cake, emulsifying properties and antinutrient content

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Rapeseed is the second most cultivated oilseed globally after soybean and a protein‐rich press cake is generated after liberation of the oil. However, its use in food applications is limited by high levels of anti‐nutrients such as glucosinolates and phytic acid. Although differences between botanical varieties are known, controlled
