BOISE, IDAHO — NNB and Axiom Foods have developed PeptiClear, a plant protein platform intended to serve as an alternative to dairy proteins.
PeptiClear are hydrolyzed plant proteins that may provide a neutral flavor profile, improved functionality and solubility in formulations. The proteins also are highly concentrated, clear protein ingredients.
The dairy alternative ingredient may be used in such applications as functional beverages, ready-to-drink products, ice cream and frozen desserts, condiments and dressings, sauces, confectionery, baked foods, high-protein snacks and functional foods.
To further advance PeptiClear's performance, NNB said it has launched DL-185.
DL-185 is a legal, dietary di-leucine peptide intended to enhance the anabolic potential of protein formulations, the company said. DL-185 is composed of two leucine molecules that are linked together in peptide form and can be added into dietary supplements and food products similarly to leucine.
