FUNCTIONAL ANIMAL PROTEINS

What are functional animal proteins?

We offer strong solutions especially for the meat processing industry by producing high functional animal proteins. Protein ingredients play a vital role as a functional and essential component in meat products.
Proteins are important because they impart unique properties to a variety of meat products. Traditionally, protein ingredients from animal sources include collagen proteins, blood proteins (plasma), egg proteins, milk proteins, and fish proteins.

WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES OF USING FUNCTIONAL ANIMAL PROTEINS

The benefits of functional animal proteins include improved water binding, improved texture, reduced syneresis, improved emulsifying capacity and enhanced organoleptic characteristics. Animal protein ingredients contribute to the nutritional value. That’s because this energy source is needed for growth and maintenance. Due to their excellent amino acid profile, animal proteins can be easily digested.

HOW ARE FUNCTIONAL ANIMAL PROTEINS PRODUCED?

An array of protein ingredients is available on the market. But the type of protein, its structure and its environment determines the unique properties of protein ingredients. Traditionally, protein ingredients from animal sources include collagen proteins, blood proteins (plasma), egg proteins, milk proteins, and fish proteins.
