Description

Casein Phosphopeptide is a bioactive peptide derived from the enzymatic hydrolysis of casein, primarily known for its ability to bind and solubilize minerals like calcium and phosphate. This unique property makes it a highly valuable functional ingredient for enhancing mineral bioavailability and stability in complex formulations. It is essential for manufacturers in the nutraceutical, functional food, and dental care industries seeking to develop advanced products focused on bone health and remineralization.

Application

• Functional Food & Beverages: As a mineral carrier to fortify products like dairy drinks, infant formula, and health bars with bioavailable calcium.
• Dietary Supplements: Key ingredient in bone health and mineral supplementation capsules/tablets to improve absorption.
• Oral Care Products: Incorporated into toothpastes, mouthwashes, and chewing gums for its enamel remineralization and anti-cariogenic properties.
• Pharmaceuticals: Used in formulations aimed at treating or preventing osteoporosis and other mineral deficiency conditions.
• Cosmeceuticals: Applied in skincare products for its potential bioactive properties and as a stabilizing agent.
• Research & Development: Serves as a critical reagent in nutritional science and dental material studies.
