Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a mineral supply agent useful as a natural food additive, containing no organic substance prepared by burning a whey concentrate. CONSTITUTION:A whey mineral concentrate is burnt at 500-1,200 deg.C for 1-5 hours to give a mineral supply agent containing no organic substance. A whey mineral concentrate concentrated to >=70% ash content in the dried material is used as the whey mineral concentrate. Well-known ion exchange method, electrophoresis method, get filtration method, ultrafiltration method, precipitation recovery method, etc., may be cited as the concentrating means. Since the whey mineral concentrate necessarily contains an organic substance, the concentrate has a color, a fragrance and a flavor derived from the raw material and damages flavor, transparency, color tone, etc., of target foods to which the concentrate is added and causes problems of safety resulting from admixture of agricultural chemical, change with time during preservation and browning during processing under heating. The mineral supply agent is excellent as a natural additive of Ca or K and readily usable because of neutrality of aqueous solution.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an organic substance-free mineral supplement obtained by baking acid casein whey or cheese whey concentrate.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In the dairy industry, cheese whey and acid casein whey are by-produced in large amounts during cheese production and acid casein production, respectively. The composition of these whey is as follows, for example.

Acid Casein Whey Cheese Whey Moisture 94.10% 94.30% Protein 0.74 0.75 Fat 0.03 0.03 Lactose 3.90 4.20 Lactic acid 0.45 0.16 Ash 0.78 0 .56 Ca 102 mg 56 mg Mg 9 6 Na 47 48 K 142 144 P 64 47

Known means for separating or concentrating minerals from whey include an ion exchange method, an electrodialysis method, a gel filtration method, an ultrafiltration method and a precipitation recovery method. The method of (3) is a method of adsorbing and recovering minerals from whey (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2-107152), and the method of (3) is a method of capturing and recovering minerals in a permeate by means of membrane permeation (Japanese Patent Publication No. 3-24191 / 63). -87945,
JP-A-2-107156, U.S. Pat.
No.) is a method for capturing and recovering a protein in a gel by capturing and recovering a mineral in an effluent.

[0005]

The whey mineral concentrate recovered by the above method always contains organic matter. Therefore, it has a color, scent, and taste derived from the raw materials, and it interferes with the flavor, transparency, color tone, etc. of the target foods that have been added and used; there is a problem with safety due to the inclusion of pesticides, etc. Some natural food additives are unfavorable, for example, they react with each other to cause changes such as generation of offensive odors and browning; and the foods to which they are added have poor stability such as browning during heat processing.

[0006]

According to the present invention, a whey mineral concentrate obtained by a conventional method is added to 500-1.
By firing at 200 ° C. for 1 to 5 hours, a mineral replenisher containing no organic substance was obtained. As the whey mineral concentrate, one obtained by concentrating the ash content in the dry matter to 70% or more is used in consideration of the efficiency of firing. Such concentration means can be appropriately selected from known means. The mineral content of the burned mineral of the present invention varies depending on the raw material whey and concentration means, but generally, the one obtained from acid casein whey has a high calcium content, and the one obtained from cheese whey has a high potassium content. Used respectively as a calcium supplement and a potassium supplement. The method for producing the mineral supplement of the present invention will be described in detail below.

(1) Calcium fortifying agent The permeate obtained by ultrafiltration of acid casein whey is maintained in the neutral pH range, the formed precipitate is recovered, and the concentrate is spray-dried. This powder is fired at 500 to 1,200 ° C. until a constant weight is obtained, and the fired product is crushed to obtain a powder. This powder has an ash content of 100%, a Ca content of 35 to 40%, and exists as tricalcium phosphate. Therefore, it can be used for all the purposes of [Tricalcium Phosphate] of Food Additives Standards Edition 5. it can.

(2) Potassium enhancer Cheese whey is passed through a cation exchange resin and then adsorbed, desorbed with hydrochloric acid, or passed through an electrodialyzer to concentrate minerals in the permeated liquid, and the concentrated liquid Freeze-dry. This powder is fired at 500 to 1,200 ° C. until a constant weight is obtained,
The fired product is crushed to obtain a powder. This powder has 100% ash
Since it has a K content of 30 to 35% and exists as potassium chloride, it can be used for all purposes of [Kalium chloride] in the 5th edition of the Food Additives Standards Manual.
