US Patent 7750119 Production of 2S canola protein involving ion exchange

Substantially pure 2S canola protein is obtained substantially free from 7S and 12S canola protein by a procedure in which 2S canola protein is captured by binding to a cation-exchange medium while permitting other proteins and impurities to be washed away. The 2S canola protein then is removed from the cation-exchange medium by exposure of the cation-exchange medium to saline at a suitably high salt concentration.
