Micellar Casein Concentrate (MC85) is a dairy-derived protein ingredient obtained by processing milk, typically skim milk, using membrane filtration. This process concentrates milk proteins while retaining the natural casein micelle structure to a significant extent. MC85 is used in food, dairy, and sports nutrition formulations where protein content and functional performance are important.
The term “MC85” generally identifies a micellar casein concentrate grade with a high protein concentration. However, the exact protein percentage, moisture, fat, lactose, ash, and other parameters vary by manufacturer and specification. Buyers should verify the current technical data sheet (TDS) and certificate of analysis (CoA) for the supplied grade.
Micellar casein concentrate is commonly produced through microfiltration of skim milk, followed by concentration and, where applicable, diafiltration and drying. Microfiltration helps separate components of milk based on their physical characteristics and can reduce the proportion of whey proteins in the retained protein ingredient.
The resulting concentrate may be supplied in powder form for use in commercial food manufacturing. Processing conditions influence the ingredient's composition, dispersibility, solubility, and other functional properties.
Micellar Casein Concentrate MC85 is valued for its high casein content and its functionality in formulated foods. Depending on the grade and processing conditions, it can contribute to protein enrichment, viscosity, texture, water binding, emulsification, and product structure.
Its performance depends on the formulation, pH, processing temperature, mixing conditions, and other ingredients. Manufacturers should conduct application-specific trials before adopting the ingredient in a new product.
MC85 may be used in protein powders, nutrition blends, protein bars, and other sports nutrition products. Formulators should verify protein content, dispersibility, flavour, and nutritional labelling requirements before use.
The ingredient can be incorporated into selected dairy formulations, cheese products, and processed cheese applications to adjust protein content and texture. Suitability depends on the target product and manufacturing process.
Micellar casein concentrate may be used in selected nutritional drinks, beverage powders, and smoothie formulations. Stability, viscosity, heat treatment, and dispersion should be assessed under actual production conditions.
MC85 can be evaluated in protein-enriched bakery products, nutrition bars, and formulated food products where additional milk protein is required. The inclusion level should be determined through formulation testing.
Before purchasing Micellar Casein Concentrate MC85, buyers should request a current product specification, CoA, ingredient declaration, allergen statement, microbiological results, nutritional information, country-of-origin documentation, and applicable food-safety certifications.
Important parameters include protein content and its reporting basis, moisture, fat, lactose, ash, pH, solubility, appearance, and microbiological limits. These values should be taken from the exact product documentation rather than assumed from the MC85 designation alone.
Store the ingredient in its original, properly sealed packaging under the conditions specified by the manufacturer. Protect the powder from moisture, contamination, and unsuitable temperature conditions. Follow the supplier's handling, shelf-life, and transport recommendations.
A reliable ingredient supplier should provide traceable product documentation, clear grade identification, consistent specifications, packaging information, and technical support for commercial applications. Buyers should confirm availability, order quantities, delivery timelines, and regulatory suitability before placing an order.
