ADM receives Prestigious 2012 InterBev award for CLARISOYTM transparent soy
protein
Vancouver, British Columbia, October 22, 2012- Burcon NutraScience
Corporation (TSX - BU; NASDAQ - BUR) ('Burcon') is proud to announce that
its licensing partner Archer Daniels Midland Company (NYSE: ADM) earned the
Best Beverage Ingredient Concept prize for its revolutionary isolated soy
protein line CLARISOY at the 2012 InterBev Awards ceremony in Las Vegas.
CLARISOY is the world's first vegetable-based protein that offers clarity
and complete protein nutrition for beverage applications.
A finalist in the Beverage Innovation of the Year category at the Food
Ingredient Excellence Awards in 2011, CLARISOY 100 is ADM's premier
transparent, isolated soy protein and enables 100 percent-soluble protein
fortification in beverage applications with a pH below 4.0.
CLARISOY 150, the first extension to the CLARISOY product line, is a
clean-tasting isolated soy protein specially processed for use in beverage
systems with a pH of less than 4.0 with cloud systems or beverages
neutralized to a pH of 7.0 or higher. CLARISOY 150 allows for greater use
of soy protein in mildly flavored neutral beverages such as meal
replacement and weight management products.
ADM's family of isolated soy proteins is designed to help manufacturers
meet the growth in demand for nutritionally-enhanced, refreshing beverages
targeted at health-conscious consumers. Potential applications for
CLARISOY include sports nutrition and recovery beverages, citrus-based
drinks, fruit flavored beverages, fruit juice blends, lemonades, powdered
beverage mixes and fortified waters.
The InterBev Awards, organized by FoodBev Media Ltd, are presented
biennially at the InterBev Tradeshow. The program includes more than 30
categories and represents the most prestigious award scheme for the global
beverage industry.
