Based on the source of the enzyme the rennet casein market is segmented into four types: Animal (calf), fermentation, plant and microbial. Casein is divided into two categories: Rennet casein (obtained by enzymatic precipitation) and Acid casein (obtained by acidifying skimmed milk).
The enzyme obtained from the animal (calf) is mostly used due to its traditional use and historical acceptance. Fermentation produced enzyme is now a day getting more popularity due to its vegetarian origin and consistency in manufacture. Casein is the major protein in the cow’s milk which comprises of about 80% of total protein content.
Renneting takes place with the help of enzyme chymosin. In a case of Acid casein, the milk is acidified to the pH 4.6; this is the stage where the negatively charged casein micelles are neutralized, resulting in coagulation of casein complex. Such acidification can be carried out using hydrochloric acid or sulphuric acid.
