Casein Testing Solutions

Casein refers to a family of proteins commonly found in milk, with approximately 80% of bovine milk proteins being caseins. Composed of α-, β-, and κ-caseins, this protein fraction is the primary component in cheese and is frequently used as a food additive. As heat-stable allergens, caseins pose a significant risk for some individuals. Bovine milk is a particularly common allergenic food ingredient, especially for children. As a result, many countries around the world mandate the labeling of casein or milk in their products. While there are no legal threshold limits for casein, food manufacturers are strongly encouraged to test for even the lowest concentrations of casein to protect allergic individuals and avoid allergen-related recalls.
