dc.description.abstract	Oilseed sunflower is one of the major vegetable oil sources. The residue after the extraction of oil (defatted meal, DM) contains a substantial amount of nutritious protein which is recoverable by extraction and precipitation methods. For effective recovery of the solid proteins from the solids-liquid suspension, it is imperative to have large particles with a narrow spread in their size distribution and high solids concentration. In this research, up to 97 % w/w and 65 % w/w of the proteins in the laboratory and industrially defatted sunflower meals, respectively, were extracted using aqueous alkaline solutions at pH 10.0. Up to 84 % of these soluble proteins were recovered as solids when the pH was lowered from 10.0 to 4.0 (isoelecmc pH) using aqueous HCI acid. The amount of proteins recovered as solids decreased with decreasing concentrations of the acid.	en_US
