Description Protein isolate was prepared from solvent extracted cottonseed flour by alkali peptization. The extractability of the protein was 73% by the 2-stage extraction procedure. The protein isolate had low free gossypol content ( less than 0.06%) with a protein efficiency ratio of 2.1 and available lysine content of 3.3-3.5 g/16 g N. Colour improved on washing the flour prior to extraction but extractability of protein was reduced to 52%. Further improvement of colour (light yellowish) was achieved by H2O2 treatment. Supplementation with lysine and methionine was required to improve the nutritive value of the peroxide treated protein.
