Patent No. EP4208039 (titled "Drinkable Egg White") was filed by Interlaap on Aug 5, 2021. The application was issued on Aug 21, 2024.
A liquid egg white with improved organoleptic properties, characterized by a neutral taste and white color, suitable for direct consumption and with enhanced storage stability. The egg white is prepared through enzymatic hydrolysis or acidification processes that modify its protein structure, resulting in a product with a gel strength of ≤35 g and a viscous modulus/elastic modulus ratio of 0.35-1.20. This liquid egg white can be used as a direct substitute for milk in beverages and food products, offering a high protein content without fat or cholesterol.
