Abstract

Several factors effecting the extraction of protein from pumpkin seeds are studied: the ratio of extracting medium, pH value, extracting temperature, extracting time, different extracting medium. The results showed: the pH value and the extracting medium greatly influenced the solubility; and the ratio of extracting medium, extracting temperature and extracting time also effected the solubility, but not as greatly as the former extracting factors did.Based on the primary results, extracting 1.0h at 37℃, a 100∶1 ratio of water to seeds and pH12.0 may be the best method for the extraction of protein from pumpkin seeds.
