Compositions and processes for destabilizing an oil-in-water emulsion resulting from the aqueous solvent extraction of plant oils are disclosed. The processes comprise the use of one or more enzyme activities including phospholipase and protease activity. The processes are useful for improving the extraction of oil from oilseeds, as well as for obtaining more desirable proteins from those oilseeds.
Substantially pure chymosin is separated from rennet extracts by contacting a liquid extract with an anionic exchange medium, preferably a diethylaminoethyl (DEAE) cellulose resin packed in a liquid chromatographic column, either as a static bed or stirred bed. The rennet extract and resin are conditioned so that the resin selectively binds pepsin and chymosin passes through the resin bed and is recovered from the liquid extract from the column. The bound pepsin is periodically removed from the resin by passing a suitable eluant through the resin bed.
