Resource saving engineering systems
Study of quasi-essential nutritional factors, which include the secondary metabolites of plants, is one of the most important areas of research in food biotechnology.
Currently allocated 11 categories of non-alimentary substances for which was proven their specific pharmacological effect (dietary fiber, oligosaccharides, polyfunctional alcohols, phenolic compounds, fatty acids, glycolipids, isoprenoids, vitamins, phospholipids and other polar lipids, etc.).
For the development of the domestic economy there is an urgent problem of complex processing of agricultural raw materials. In particular, these are byproducts of oilseeds such as hydrofuses and products of vegetable oils deodorization. These products are the source of substances such as polar lipids (phospholipids, glycolipids, etc. ), and terpenes (di -and tri - terpenes, which include sterols , vitamin E, K , etc.).
Nowadays these products are sold to Europe, China and Japan, where they are deep processed. Domestic plants do not have the technology and equipment for deep cleaning of these valuable substances. These biologically active substances are widely used as a technological and functional additives in baking, confectionery, flour and animal feed industry, in medicine in the production of blood substitutes, etc.
