Functional characterisation of buffalo milk protein co‐precipitate

Buffalo milk protein co‐precipitates (BMPC) were prepared using disodium hydrogen phosphate (DSP) and trisodium citrate (TSC) and were evaluated for their techno‐functional properties. Buffalo milk protein co‐precipitates have superior wettability and wider particle size distribution leading to better flowability against conventional high protein powders. Emulsifying properties of BMPC were better than milk protein concentrates (MPC), whereas foaming properties were similar to buffalo MPC60. Buffalo milk protein co‐precipitates prepared with TSC had significantly higher bulk density, dispersibility, solubility, and lower heat stability than BMPC prepared with DSP.
