Title: Future Development of Whey Protein Production
Abstract: Whey protein and lactose are being used to modify whey protein/casein ratio and protein/lactose ratio of cow milk to mimic human milk. Whey protein also has a positive view in sport nutrition due to its effects on muscle strength, resistance, and repair. Both ultrafiltration and microfilteration are widely used in whey protein manufacture. Ultrafiltration is also used for milk protein concentrate and isolate production, because both casein and whey are retained by the ultrafiltration membrane. Manufacturing casein products also generate a lot of low quality acid whey (especially for acid casein and caseinate). If micellar casein can be used in some of the current casein applications, it will be a huge payback by replacing the low-quality acid whey with premium quality serum protein. Casein and whey protein are both excellent protein with high nutrition value, but the functionalities are distinct, and even opposite to each other.
