Description:It is an enzymatic hydrolysate of bovine collagen of Indian origin. Raw collagen gets hydrolysed and in turns loses its gelling strength and gives final product which is low in molecular weight and is sparingly soluble in water. It is a free flowing powder with characteristic proteinous odour and hygroscopic in nature.
Application:Source of digested/hydrolyzed protein used in Nutraceuticals (Food, Pharma, Diagnostics & Cosmetics)

FAQs of Collagen Peptide (Refined):
Q: How is Collagen Peptide (Refined) used in food and nutraceutical products?
A: Collagen Peptide (Refined) is typically incorporated into food supplements, beverages, protein bars, and nutraceuticals due to its high protein content, solubility, and neutral taste. Its fine powder form allows easy blending into various formulations without affecting color or flavor.
Q: What benefits does Collagen Peptide offer compared to gelatin or other proteins?
A: Collagen Peptide provides superior solubility in cold water, high protein concentration (over 92%), and maintains a clear solution, making it more versatile for beverages and supplements. Unlike gelatin, it is odorless, quickly dissolves, and offers high binding power for nutrients and water.
Q: When should Collagen Peptide be added during manufacturing processes?
A: For optimal results, Collagen Peptide should be added during the blending phase or after primary cooking/cooling, as it dissolves easily at room temperature without requiring heat. Its low viscosity and stability up to 120C allow flexible integration into recipes and industrial processes.
Q: Where should this product be stored to maintain its quality?
A: Collagen Peptide should be kept in a cool, dry place in tightly sealed containers to prevent moisture absorption. Appropriate storage conditions help maintain product purity, prevent clumping, and extend its 24-month shelf life.
Q: What is the typical process for producing Refined Collagen Peptide?
A: The peptide is produced by enzymatic hydrolysis of purified bovine or porcine collagen, followed by filtration, drying, and milling to achieve fine powder consistency. This process ensures high purity, low microbial load, and compliance with pharmaceutical and food standards.
Q: Is Collagen Peptide safe for use in pharmaceuticals and food supplements?
A: Yes, the product meets strict food and pharma-grade microbial and heavy metal standards. Each batch is tested and complies with international safety guidelines, making it suitable for human consumption in a range of applications.
Q: What are the primary health and functional benefits of using Collagen Peptide?
A: Collagen Peptide supports joint, skin, and bone health thanks to its bioavailable peptides and amino acids. In addition, it enhances product stability, retains water and nutrients, and improves the texture and nutritional value of supplements and food products.
