Dairy Ingredients for Food Processing

supplements. A new trend involves develop-

ment of functional ingredients from whey,

colostrum, and bioactive peptides from milk

proteins, which possess distinct health -

promoting attributes (Chandan 2007a and b ).

Other ingredients are specifi c metabolites

concentrated in fermented milk or whey by

the activity of specifi c dairy cultures. The

dried fermented ingredients derived from fer-

mented bases contain active metabolites that

are used as natural preservatives to extend

shelf life and safety of foods. The enzyme -

In the arena of industrial ingredients, dairy
plants fabricate convenient, custom - made
mixes for food plants for processing of foods.
Such practice is currently undertaken for the
production of yogurt, ice cream, and confec-
tionery products (Chandan and O ’ Rell,
2006a ; Kilara and Chandan, 2008 ). Novel
ingredients have been developed by applying
membrane technology to fractionate milk and
whey to enhance their performance in food
products. Such ingredients furnish milk
protein, milk fat, or milk minerals in food
