Caseins

 

The milk protein is composed of casein (80%) and whey protein (20%).

Casein is produced by acidification of skim milk by either a culture of lactic bacteria or food grade acids such as hydrochloric acid. The casein will precipitate and is separated from the remaining liquid.

Depending on the precipitant, the product is Rennet Casein or Acid Casein.

 

Edible Grade Rennet Casein :

 Edible Grade Rennet Casein is manufactured from fresh milk by the coagulating action of the enzyme rennin. Edible Grade Rennet casein has high calcium content suitable for cheese analogs and nutritional fortification.
Rennet Casein has excellent binding capacity.
