DuPont Danisco Chymostar cheese coagulant

DuPont Nutrition & Biosciences has launched the DuPont Danisco Chymostar, a milk coagulating preparation for the dairy industry.

The fermentation-derived cheese coagulant enables fast milk coagulation and is designed to ensure balanced flavour and texture development for a range of dairy applications. It can be used for producing any type of cheese: hard, semi-hard, soft, mould-ripened, low-fat and ingredient cheeses.

The product features good curd formation and firming speed and enables fast flavour development due to its balanced proteolytic profile, thus helping mitigate the time and cost of maturation.

Developed for a wide array of consumers, it is preservative-free, kosher, halal-certified and suitable for use in vegetarian products.

It also meets purity and thermolability requirements for whey quality. Inactivated in whey by standard pasteurisation techniques, it is a purified product — clear of lipase and amylase side activities.
