Protein Hydrolysates
What are they?
The term "hydrolysis" can be defined as partial digestion. The intact full chain of amino acids found in the protein is broken down into small amino acid blocks using an enzyme. Our Protein Hydrolysates are made from either milk proteins or whey proteins. The protein is first isolated using our state of the art membrane technology then undergoes the enzyme hydrolysis. The enzymes are carefully chosen for the particular amino acid bonds that we want to cleave. This determines the functionality of the end product.
What are their primary function?
The primary function of protein hydrolysates are to add nutrition to a formulation. We are actively developing new and novel hydrolysate products using other protein sources.
What are the specific applications?
Protein hydrolysates are used in the following applications:
Tablets
Nutritional Bars
Nutritional Beverages
Infant formula
Special Dietary Needs formulas
Reduced Allergenicity formulas
