Application field
Whey acid, also known as vitamin B13, is a nutrient. In the field of medicine, whey acid and its derivatives have good therapeutic effects on icteric hepatitis, fatty liver, and acute and chronic hepatitis. As a nutritional cosmetic base, it can be well absorbed by the skin, promote cell metabolism and significantly inhibit skin aging. Whey acid has applications in the fields of food and life sciences.
Production method
Whey is produced as a by-product of the cheese industry and is the clear liquid or slurry separated from the curd used in the production of cheese and casein. The whey content in cow's milk reaches 80% to 90%, and it contains 50% of the nutrients of raw milk. The sweet whey, a by-product obtained from the production of hard and semi-hard, soft cheeses and chymosin casein, has a pH of 5.9 to 6.4. The pH of the acid whey obtained from the precipitation of inorganic acid to produce casein is 4.3-4.6.
Physiological functions and roles
The main function of whey acid is to metabolize folic acid together with vitamin B12. Rich whey acid can help replace vitamin B12, although it cannot completely replace it, it can reduce the damage caused by vitamin B12 deficiency. This acid is also used in beauty products, medicines, and animal feed supplements. It is also widely used in competitions around the world because it can increase the secretion of adenosine triphosphate (the main energy source of the body). Whey acid achieves this by serving as an initial form of pyrophosphate and then being used in pyrimidine synthesis. The more pyrophosphate there is in the body, the more adenosine triphosphate can be produced.
