Primary Production and Harvesting
Varietal selection as it relates to ingredient processing, process development for the manufacturing of protein ingredients.
Protein Food Processing
We conduct application research to optimize the processes used to incorporate concentrated protein ingredients in finished food products, and understand protein interactions with both other ingredients and process parameters.
Consumer Acceptability
Consumer (hedonic) testing of plant proteins in target applications to understand botanical source and use level impact on consumer liking.
Assessment of the Safety and Nutritional Value of Protein Foods
Assess the AA profile and AAS of our products alone and in combination with other proteins, pre and post processing
