Hydrolyzed Soluble/Ingestible Keratin is a protein-derived nutritional ingredient produced by controlled hydrolysis of keratin-rich raw materials. Hydrolysis breaks the native keratin structure into smaller peptides and amino-acid-containing fractions, improving dispersibility and making the material more suitable for incorporation into selected nutritional and supplement formulations. Hydrolyzed keratin can be produced through enzymatic, acid, alkaline or other controlled hydrolysis processes, and its physical and molecular characteristics vary according to the source and manufacturing process.
Soluble keratin and hydrolyzed keratin are used as specialty protein ingredients in applications where a soluble or dispersible keratin-derived protein source is required. Commercial keratin hydrolysates may be supplied as powders or aqueous preparations, with molecular-weight distributions depending on the degree of hydrolysis. Published specifications for keratin-derived materials demonstrate substantial variation in molecular weight, concentration and impurity limits, making product-specific technical documentation essential for commercial procurement.
For ingestible applications, Hydrolyzed Soluble Keratin may be considered for nutraceutical and dietary-supplement formulations focused on protein nutrition and beauty-from-within concepts, including hair, skin and nail formulations. Oral keratin ingredients have been studied in supplement formulations, although the appropriate dosage, claims and intended use must be established according to the specific ingredient, clinical evidence and applicable regulations.
MEDIOCON INC provides sourcing and supply support for specialty nutraceutical ingredients, hydrolyzed proteins and functional raw materials for supplement and food manufacturers. Hydrolyzed Soluble/Ingestible Keratin can be supplied according to customer requirements, source specifications, molecular-weight profile, microbiological requirements, heavy-metal limits and applicable regulatory documentation. Buyers should request the current Certificate of Analysis and technical specification before commercial use.
CAS 69430-36-0 is commonly associated with hydrolyzed keratin/keratin hydrolysates, but the exact identity and grade should be confirmed against the supplier's current documentation because keratin products differ by source and processing.
Hydrolyzed Soluble Keratin is a processed keratin-derived protein material in which the large, structurally resistant keratin protein has been broken down into smaller peptide fractions. Compared with native insoluble keratin, hydrolyzed forms can provide substantially improved water dispersibility and processing characteristics. Research on soluble keratin and its enzymatic hydrolysates demonstrates that molecular weight and functional properties can vary considerably depending on the hydrolysis process.
The material can be supplied in different molecular-weight profiles depending on the intended application. Published technical information on keratin-derived products reports hydrolyzed keratin products with average molecular weights ranging from approximately 310 Da to 11,000 Da, while one soluble keratin powder specification reported an average molecular weight of approximately 30,000 Da. These values should not be treated as a universal specification for every Hydrolyzed Soluble Keratin product.
For nutraceutical applications, the material may be incorporated into capsules, tablets, sachets, powdered beverages and functional-food formulations. A commercially available oral keratin supplement, for example, uses soluble keratin hydrolysate as its primary active ingredient, demonstrating the existence of ingestible keratin-hydrolysate applications.
Published keratin-derived product specifications demonstrate that heavy-metal limits and molecular-weight characteristics can differ significantly between products, so the final CMS specification should be populated from your actual supplier/manufacturer COA.
Hydrolyzed keratin consists primarily of peptides and amino-acid-containing protein fractions. Keratin is naturally rich in sulfur-containing amino acids, particularly cysteine, although the precise amino-acid profile depends on the biological source and processing conditions.
Published analytical information for keratin-derived materials reports amino acids including:
The exact nutritional composition should be taken from the product-specific amino-acid profile and COA.
