A biomass study of water hyacinth for producion of protein concentrate

In the producion of protein concentrate was utilized for protein extration solution of hidroxi of sodio (50mM), in proporcion the (3 v. NaOH (50mM) : 1 v. desintegrated plant). In protein precipitation was realized with solution of cloridric acid (100mM) in temperature of 80oC, in pH was until corrigid atinged the isoeletric point of protein, was occured in pH = 3,5. The ratio encontred of protein with C. P. A. was of better quality to the vegetables another and products with vegetable origin with alfalfa and soybean flour for example. The presence of all essencial aminoacids in C. P. A., show your utilization is possible in production of animal ration and how food suplementation in human diet.
