Notes:
Protein and carbohydrate fractions in oat flour were separated on the basis of density using nonaqueous solvent systems. Optimum solvent densities and solvent:flour ratios for maximum yield of protein fraction were determined. Fractions with over 70% protein content can be separated; however, they represent only about 40% of the protein available in the flour. The carbohydrate fraction contains about 10% protein, with approximately half the protein available in the flour remaining in this fraction. Functional properties of the protein fractions such as hydration capacity, emulsifying activity, emulsion stability and nitrogen solubilities were determined.
