05 Feb 2020 --- Motif FoodWorks, an animal-free ingredient innovation company, has partnered with the University of Massachusetts Amherst (UMass), US, to optimize the process of characterizing functional properties of food proteins, including their solubility, stability, color and other properties critical to the production of successful plant-based products. This research will drive key efficiencies in Motif’s protein formulation process. Michael Leonard, Motif’s Chief Technology Officer, tells FoodIngredientsFirst, “We are laser-focused on uncovering the attributes of great tasting food, at the molecular level, and recreating those properties without using animal products.”
