With our comprehensive testing services, you can ensure that your whey powder meets FSSAI safety and quality standards. We analyze key parameters, including fat content, SNF, microbial load, adulterants, and contaminants, to ensure compliance and consumer safety.
Whey Powder is a dairy product obtained by spray-drying the liquid whey remaining after the coagulation of milk during cheese or casein production. It contains milk solids excluding fat, primarily lactose (up to 70%), along with whey proteins, minerals, and trace amounts of fat. Whey powder is used extensively in bakery, confectionery, processed foods, sports nutrition, and animal feed due to its functional properties and nutritional value. It may be classified as sweet whey or acid whey, depending on the production process.
To ensure compositional compliance
Moisture ≤ 5%
Protein content and lactose levels as per specification
Ash and fat content within standard limits
To detect adulteration
Check for the presence of added sugars, starch, urea, detergent, or non-dairy fillers
To ensure microbiological safety
Absence of Salmonella, E. coli, Listeria monocytogenes
Total plate count, coliforms, yeast, and mold within permissible levels
To analyze chemical contaminants
Presence of pesticide residues, antibiotics, heavy metals (lead, arsenic), and aflatoxins
To evaluate functional properties
Solubility, water activity, reconstitution, and flowability
Assessment of browning tendency and heat stability (especially for lactose-rich powders)
To verify nutritional and labeling claims
Accurate declaration of protein, lactose, energy, and mineral content
To conduct shelf-life and stability testing
Resistance to caking, moisture absorption, and spoilage during storage
To assess sensory attributes
Color (typically off-white to light cream), aroma, and absence of off-flavors or burnt particles
