1. A modified oilseed material comprising:
- at least about 85 wt. % (dsb) protein;
at least about 40 wt. % of the protein has an apparent molecular weight of greater than 300 kDa; and

Abstract
A modified oilseed material formed from oilseed-based material is described. The modified oilseed material can be utilized in a variety of nutritional applications, including the preparation of protein supplemented food products such as beverages, processed meats, frozen desserts, confectionery products, dairy-type products, cooked dough products and cereal grain products. The modified oilseed material typically includes at least 85 wt. % protein (dry solids basis), at least about 40 wt. % of the protein in the modified oilseed material has an apparent molecular weight of at least 300 kDa, and/or the modified oilseed material has a MW50 of at least about 200 kDa.

2. A method for producing a modified oilseed material comprising:
-
extracting oilseed material with an aqueous solution to form a suspension of particulate matter in an oilseed extract; and
passing the extract through a filtration system including a microporous membrane to produce a permeate and a protein-enriched retentate, wherein the microporous membrane has a filtering surface with a contact angle of no more than 30 degrees to form the modified oilseed material.
