ABSTRACT The invention relates to a method for modifying the conformation of plant proteins for increasing their biological utilization, which comprises treating said plant protein with a strong inorganic acid to adjust its pH to a value between 1.6 and 2.4, as measured in a 20% by weight equeous suspension, for a period sufficient to increase the digestibility of said protein, and there- after, if desired, bringing the pH of said protein to a value between 4 and 7 with an alkalizing agent, wherein the moisture content of said protein is increased with the acid and the alkalizing agent at most to 50% by weight. The process renders possible in a simple and inexpensive way to considerably increase the enzymatic digestibility and thereby the in vivo utilization of food and feed proteins.
