Burcon NutraScience Corporation is a Canada-based global technology company focused on the development of plant-based proteins for foods and beverages. The Company has an extensive patent portfolio covering its novel plant-based proteins derived from pea, canola, soy, hemp and sunflower seeds, among other plant sources. The Company is engaged in the production of hemp protein isolate and provision of contract research services. Its products include hempseed protein, canola protein, pea proteins and protein blends. Its hempseed protein isolate extraction and purification/production process can produce a high-quality protein ingredient that contains 95% pure protein. It extracts and purifies a canola protein isolate from canola meal. It has branded this protein isolate under the trade name Puratein C. Peazazz is a soluble, clean and neutral-tasting pea protein. It provides consulting and contract services, product and process development, and process scale-up and validation.

Recent applications work has demonstrated that Merit Functional Foods’ Peazazz #peaprotein isolate – in combination with an enzyme called transglutaminase - can replace #methylcellulose, a binding and gelling ingredient widely used in meat alternatives that many firms are desperate to replace in order to ‘clean up’ product labels.

While combining transglutaminase with plant proteins has been tried before, acknowledges research and applications director Jeff Casper, “When we tested transglutaminase with our Peazazz and Peazazz C pea proteins and compared the results against across a range of proteins from various botanical sources and also against other commercial pea proteins, we knew we had something special.

"Our protein is produced using membrane filtration, which changes the protein composition and removes impurities that can impact taste and functionality, including how it behaves in gel networks catalyzed using transglutaminase.”
