Testing Scope

About This Test

Acid Whey Powder is obtained by spray-drying acid whey, the liquid by-product resulting from the coagulation of milk using food-grade acids (e.g., lactic or citric acid) during the production of cheese like cottage cheese or paneer. Compared to sweet whey, acid whey powder contains lower protein and higher levels of lactic acid and minerals, especially calcium and phosphorus. It has a tangy flavor and is primarily used in animal feed, fermentation media, bakery products, and some specialized food formulations due to its functional and nutritional properties.

Why It Matters

Purpose of Testing

To ensure compositional compliance Moisture ≤ 5%

Total ash (mineral content) within permissible range

Protein and lactose content as per standard specifications

To differentiate from sweet whey powder Check pH levels, titratable acidity, and lactic acid content

Confirm absence of rennet or enzyme-based coagulation markers

To detect adulteration Presence of added sugars, non-dairy fillers, starch, detergent, or urea

To ensure microbiological safety Absence of pathogens like Salmonella, Listeria monocytogenes, and E. coli

Control of total plate count, coliforms, yeast, and mold
