| 20110313666 | METHOD FOR MONITORING ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS OF CROP CULTIVATION - The invention relates to a method, a system, apparatus, and software to be used for the method for the determination of the environmental impact of the production of cultivation plants and for increasing or maximizing a positive environmental impact. In the method, production parameters for cultivation are selected and cultivation procedures are performed, crop yieldhus produced is harvested, and a representative sample of the crop yield is delivered to reception analysis with the appendant information for the analysis of energy and carbon dioxide factors. An environmental impact index reflecting the environmental impact of the production of said cultivation plant is determined on the basis of this data and the appendant information. The index thus provided is utilized for the production of cultivation plants in an environmentally friendlier manner. | 12-22-2011 |
| 20110301085 | PROTEIN HYDROLYSATE AND PLANT STEROL CONTAINING COMPOSITION FOR IMPROVING SERUM LIPID PROFILE AND PREVENTING ATHEROSCLEROSIS - The invention relates to a terapeutical composition comprising a protein hydrolysate and a plant sterol, wherein the weight ratio of the plant sterol to the protein hydrolysate is from 1:0.02 to 1:150. The invention also relates to a terapeutical composition comprising a protein hydrolysate and a synthetic emulsifier and/or a lipid based gain fraction having emulsifying properties. Said compositions can be used in a pharmaceutical, nutraceutical or food product for improving serum lipid profile. | 12-08-2011 |
| 20110288018 | BEVERAGE LOWERING SERUM CHOLESTEROL - A beverage including protein, plant sterol ester and/or plant stanol ester, a fruit and/or vegetable preparation, and a stabiliser. | 11-24-2011 |
| 20110217446 | BREAKFAST CEREALS WITH DECREASED SOAKING AND METHOD FOR DECREASING SOAKING OF BREAKFAST CEREALS - The present invention relates to improved breakfast cereal products. The new products have improved sensory properties and they are healthier due to added ingredients. | 09-08-2011 |
| 20110184197 | EFFECTIVE HYDROGENATION PROCESS - The invention relates to an effective process for producing plant stanol by hydrogenating plant sterol in an organic solvent at a hydrogen pressure of 1-200 bar in the presence of a hydrogenation catalyst. | 07-28-2011 |
| 20110159145 | IMPROVED EDIBLE COMPOSITIONS AND METHOD FOR PREPARING IT - The invention relates to an oat suspension, a process for preparation thereof and a powder made thereof. The suspension and the powder can be used for preparing drinks and other non-dairy products with improved sensory properties. | 06-30-2011 |
| 20110081447 | BREAD COMPOSITION WITH IMPROVED BREAD VOLUME - The present invention relates to a bread composition having improved bread volume comprising by dry weight from 78 to 98% flour and from 2.0 to 22% plant sterol ester and/or plant stanol ester composition in powder form, wherein the plant sterol ester and/or plant stanol ester composition in powder form comprises from 50 to 95% by weight plant sterol ester and/or plant stanol ester and from 5 to 50% by weight carrier. A preferred carrier is maltodextrin and a protein-containing component. The invention also relates to a dough composition and to said plant sterol ester and/or plant stanol ester composition in powder form. | 04-07-2011 |
| 20110034725 | PROCESS FOR SEPARATING STEROLS AND ACIDS FROM TALL OIL PITCH - The invention relates to a process for recovering sterols and fatty and/or resin acids from tall oil pitch, comprising the steps of:
| 02-10-2011 |
| 20100272879 | FAT COMPOSITION FOR USE IN FOOD - Fatty acid esters, such as the unsaturated fatty acid esters of sterols and/or stanols, are used as a replacement for a substantial portion or all of the undesirable saturated and trans-unsaturated fats used as structure giving hardstocks in edible foods such as margarines, mayonnaise, cooking oils, cheeses, butter and shortening. Because of the similarity in the crystallinity and physical properties of the esters to those of the undesirable hardstock fats, the substitution or replacement contributes favorably to the flavor, texture and other sensory properties of the foods. Only the fatty acid portion of the phytosterol esters defined herein as texturizing agent is digested or absorbed with the sterol part being unabsorbable, thereby resulting in a reduction in total caloric uptake. Furthermore, the phytosterol fatty acid esters reduce the absorption of both dietary and biliary cholesterol from the digestive tract, thereby lowering the blood serum cholesterol level, especially the LDL-cholesterol. | 10-28-2010 |
| 20100272858 | HEALTHY DRINK AND A METHOD FOR IMPROVING STABILITY OF A DRINK - The invention relates to a drink, especially to a drink that is healthy and tasty and has a good stability, and to a method for improving the stability of a drink. | 10-28-2010 |
| 20100209587 | BEVERAGE AND A METHOD FOR PREPARATION THEREOF - The invention relates to a stable beverage comprising at least one texture component selected from the group consisting of unhomogenised vegetable puree, fruit pulp and fruit puree, optionally unhomogenised vegetable juice and/or fruit juice, optionally homogenised vegetable material and/or fruit material, and a plant sterol ester and/or plant stanol ester in an amount of from 0.2 to 25% by weight of the beverage. Additionally the invention relates to a method for preparing the stable beverage. | 08-19-2010 |
| 20100179113 | STANOL COMPOSITION AND THE USE THEREOF - A stanol composition containing in addition to sitostanol as the main component, also a substantial amount of at least 10% campestanol has been found to effectively lower serum cholesterol levels when incorporated in edible commodities. Upon esterification the composition is especially useful in edible fats and oils and in fat-containing foods. | 07-15-2010 |
| 20100130401 | PROTEIN HYDROLYSATE AND PLANT STEROL CONTAINING COMPOSITION FOR IMPROVING SERUM LIPID PROFILE AND PREVENTING ATHEROSCLERORIS - The invention relates to a terapeutical composition comprising a protein hydrolysate and a plant sterol, wherein the weight ratio of the plant sterol to the protein hydrolysate is from 1:0.02 to 1:150. The invention also relates to a terapeutical composition comprising a protein hydrolysate and a synthetic emulsifier and/or a lipid based grain fraction having emulsifying properties. Said compositions can be used in a pharmaceutical, nutraceutical or food product for improving serum lipid profile. | 05-27-2010 |
