Are there critical points when using PeptoPro® in a ready-to-drink formulation?
Type of sugar, heat treatment and packaging material are the most critical aspects when using PeptoPro® in ready-to-drink formulations. Interactions of PeptoPro® with reducing sugars might occur, resulting in browning of the formulation. Heat treatment at high temperature for a very short duration is preferable to extended heating at lower temperatures. Packaging material that avoids interaction of PeptoPro® with light is preferred, since this may lead to colouring of the formulation.
