LOS ANGELES, July 19, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Axiom Foods, Inc. has been awarded its fourth patent, and first in China (Patent No. ZL 201480013156.1) covering its Oryzatein® organic brown rice protein. Axiom Foods is one of America’s largest plant protein science innovators, whose rice and pea ingredients are used in 1000’s of products. Issued on April 10, 2018, Patent No. ZL 201480013156.1 covers methods of increasing the rate of absorption of leucine - an essential branched chain amino acid. The patent is currently active in China and Axiom expects additional patents soon in its growing worldwide portfolio, which includes issued patents and pending applications in the U.S. Axiom Foods will offer licensing opportunities for manufacturers to practice the patented claims and to formulate products containing Oryzatein® brown rice protein; information about licensing opportunities can be requested by emailing info@axiomfoods.com and patent information can be found at axiomfoods.com/patents.
Until Axiom Foods’ work, scientists, food formulators and consumers believed that rice protein was inferior to animal-based whey or soy protein. Both the published 2014 amino acid absorption study and the most current published clinical trial on Axiom Foods’ Oryzatein® rice protein -muscle-building effects (done with professional athletes, mixed martial artists of the UFC in 2018) shows otherwise.
“It appears that the faster absorbing leucine in rice protein may help explain why it has the same muscle development benefits of animal-based whey protein - despite having a different amino acid profile,” said the inventor of Oryzatein® rice protein and CEO of Axiom Foods, David Janow.
Any rice protein manufacturers and finished product manufacturers using rice proteins falling within Axiom Foods’ patent claims, will be liable for infringement and Axiom will enforce the patent to the maximum extent of the law.
