Soy Protein Vs Meat Protein

 


You need protein to build, maintain and repair every cell in your body — from bones and muscles to skin and hair. All foods contain some protein. Protein from soy and animal-based protein each have different merits and advantages for your health. If you consider not only the nutritional benefits, but how each type can influence your risk for certain chronic disease, you can make an informed decision on your choice of protein.

What Is Soy?

Soy comes from soybean plants, which belong to the legume family. The beans can vary in color from green, black, white or yellow. Soybeans are a high-protein versatile food available in many forms (whole soybeans, edamame, tofu, tempeh, soy milk and soy chips) and eaten in many ways, including raw, boiled, sprouted, fried and roasted. Soybean extracts, such as soy-protein isolate, soy-protein concentrate or soy-protein flours are used to make dairy alternatives and infant formulas.

 

What Is Protein?

The food you eat contains a variety of nitrogen-containing organic compounds, called amino acids. Your body combines 20 of these amino acids in specific amounts and bonds them together to create long chains called proteins. These proteins form the structural and functional components of all your cells.

 

Your body has the ability to make 11 amino acids. These are known as nonessential. The remaining nine are known as essential amino acids because your body needs to acquire them from the food you eat. Each essential amino acid plays a different role in helping your body function and is required in different amounts. Many foods contain one or more of each type of amino acid.

 

The essential amino acids are: methionine, phenylalanine, histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, threonine, tryptophan and valine.

Use of soy silk drawing protein

图片
The soy silk drawing protein is a fibrous plant protein with a texture similar to muscle fiber formed by the production and processing of soy protein through a special process. The classification of soy silk drawing protein is divided according to its structure. There are thick silk type, thin silk type, soft silk type, hard silk type, smooth silk, astringent silk, etc. According to the different silk structure and the tensile strength of the silk, how much A combination of plant silk protein can be used to produce ham sausage, minced meat, beef jerky and canned food. The taste of the food is basically the same as ordinary meat food, but the price of plant silk protein is only 1/of the lean pork. 5. The protein content is equivalent to 2-3 times that of fish, meat, and eggs.

How to use enzyme technology to modify soy protein?

 According to market needs, through the selection of different proteases, the adjustment of process conditions and the degree of hydrolysis, a variety of products with different functional characteristics can be developed and produced. (1)Injectable protein isolate :  The product is used in the salted solution for injection of whole meat products, which can reduce the cooking loss of meat products and improve the quality of individual rows and cut surfaces of meat products. Since the product is usually added in a relatively small amount, below 3%, it is not necessary to strictly control the bitterness. Such products are required to have a lower viscosity, and at the same time, the increase in foaming properties and the decrease in gel properties must be controlled within a certain range. The viscosity is mainly determined by the molecular mass of the protein. The greater the molecular mass, the greater the viscosity. 80% of soybean protein has a molecular mass of more than 100,000 and
