Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
42 words
High protein pasta formulation consisting of a blend of from about 84% up to about 95% of semolina, with the balance of from 5% to 16% of said pasta formulation being essentially dry whey solids containing about 50% of undenatured whey protein.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
42 words
High protein pasta formulation consisting of a blend of from about 84% up to about 95% of semolina, with the balance of from 5% to 16% of said pasta formulation being essentially dry whey solids containing about 50% of undenatured whey protein.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
53 words
The high protein pasta formulation as defined in claim 1 wherein said formulation consists of a blend of from about 84% up to about 88% semolina with the balance of from 12% to 16% of said formulation being essentially a mixture of dry whey solids containing about 50% undenatured whey protein, balance lactose.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
39 words
The high protein pasta formulation as defined in claim 1 wherein said formulation consists of a blend of 88% semolina, balance of 12% being essentially a mixture of dry whey solids containing about 50% undenatured whey protein, balance lactose.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
28 words
The high protein pasta formulation as defined in claim 1 wherein said formulation contains from 3% to 8% soy protein isolate containing greater than about 70% soy protein.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
56 words
The high protein pasta formulation as defined in claim 1 wherein said formulation contains from between about 82% up to about 85% semolina, 12% of dry whey solids containing about 50% undenatured whey protein, balance of said whey solids being lactose, and said formulation further containing from between about 3% to about 6% soy protein isolate.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
23 words
The high protein pasta formulation as defined in claim 5 wherein said soy protein isolate consists of from 90% to 95% soy protein.
Claim 8
Independent Claim
89 words
The method of preparing a high protein pasta formulation which comprises blending a solids mixture of from about 84% up to about 95% of semolina, with the balance of from 5% to 16% solids being essentially dry whey solids containing about 50% of undenatured whey protein, balance of said whey solids being lactose, with the blending operation being conducted until the formulation becomes uniform, and thereafter adding water in an amount of about 25 pounds water to 100 pounds solids and thence extruding said formulation into a food product.
