Sensient Flavors & Extracts has introduced Amberferm Grow 288 and 289, two yeast-based fermentation technologies developed specifically for dairy culture production. Designed to increase fermentation yield and support product innovation, the new solutions enable manufacturers to increase production output to meet dairy market demand without the need for capital investment.
Amberferm Grow 288 and 289 are designed for use across a range of dairy culture strains and have demonstrated improved fermentation yield and culture activity. Because different bacterial strains have distinct nutritional requirements, the performance of Amberferm Grow 288 and 289 provide dairy culture manufacturers with options to address the specific needs of the cultures they produce. In some cases, Sensient has seen the technology double the yield achieved with an industry-standard fermentation nutrient.
“We want to help our customers do more with less,” says Bhakti Pande, general manager of Sensient BioNutrients. “The new Amberferm Grow products provide a powerful solution for dairy culture manufacturers, especially in context of the current consumer demand for dairy products."
Amberferm Grow 288 and 289 consistently deliver significant improvements in packed cell volume yield, enabling manufacturers to produce more culture from existing fermentation capacity
Amberferm Grow 288 & 289 deliver benefits across three key areas:
Fermentation Yield
When used as fermentation nutrients in dairy culture production, Amberferm Grow 288 and 289 consistently deliver significant improvements in packed cell volume yield, enabling manufacturers to produce more culture from existing fermentation capacity. In some cases, Sensient has seen the technology double the yield achieved in an industry-standard fermentation nutrient.
Product Activity
The technology has also demonstrated improved acidification activity in dairy cultures, enabling manufacturers to enhance the performance and competitiveness of their products.
Downstream Application
The Amberferm Grow nutrients can support product optimisation and new product development. Manufacturers can use Amberferm Grow 288 and 289 to optimise fermentation yields while maintaining culture performance or to develop new products for differentiated applications.
Amberferm Grow 288 and 289 are available in North America and Europe.
