  • Beta-casein assemblies for enrichment of food and beverages and methods of preparation thereof
    Patent number: 8865222
    Abstract: The invention relates to a composition for the enrichment of food and/or beverage and to a method of preparing such composition. The composition comprises additive loaded beta-casein micelles which are of a diameter of about 100 nm or less. These nano-sized beta-casein assemblies are formed at pH values which are preferably one or more pH units above or below the pI of the protein (pI=5.3). More preferably the beta-casein nano-assemblies are formed at a pH range between about 6.0 and about 8, or between about 2.0 and about 4.2. The invention provides vehicles for delivery of additives via transparent beverages and other foods and drinks and/or acidic foods and drinks and/or non fat foods and drinks.
