While dairy is the basis of protein nutrition, the use of plant-based and precision fermented protein is bound to increase in products such as infant formula, healthy ageing, and sports nutrition, says dairy multinational firm Friesland Campina.
The Dutch multinational dairy cooperative FrieslandCampina has built a new facility to increase its lactoferrin capacity by 60 metric tonnes per year, to help meet rising global demand.
FrieslandCampina Ingredients – part of Dutch dairy giant FrieslandCampina – has struck a strategic partnership with California-based startup Triplebar Bio to develop and scale up the production of bioactive proteins using precision fermentation.
