Abstract

Almost all rapeseed grown in the UK is the winter rape variety, which is low in erucic acid but high in glucosinolates. The residue remaining after oil extraction is called rapeseed meal and contains about 40% protein (dwb). Extraction and ultrafiltration were investigated with the aim of producing protein concentrates with desirable functional properties and a low glucosinolate content, the target level for glucosinolate being below 0.4g/kg.(Finnigan, 1986)
