What is the protein content and nutritional composition of Skimmed Milk Powder?
Skimmed Milk Powder (SMP) contains approximately 34–36% protein (predominantly casein ~80% and whey ~20%), ~50% lactose, ~0.5–1.5% fat, ~8% minerals (mainly calcium and phosphorus), and 3–4% moisture. It provides a complete amino acid profile with all essential amino acids.
What is the difference between Skimmed Milk Powder, Whey Protein, and Casein?
SMP contains both whey (~20%) and casein (~80%) proteins plus lactose and minerals. Whey Protein (WPC/WPI) is the fast-digesting fraction separated during cheese making. Casein is the slow-digesting fraction. For sports nutrition, WPI/WPC are preferred for post-workout speed. SMP is preferred for general nutrition, infant formula, and food applications where a complete dairy nutrition profile is needed.
Can SMP be used in infant formula manufacturing?
Yes. SMP is a key ingredient in follow-up infant formula (Stage 2+) and growing-up milks. It is used alongside demineralised whey powder and vegetable oils to achieve a protein and mineral composition closer to human milk than whole cow's milk. Infant formula-grade SMP must meet strict FSSAI and Codex Alimentarius microbiological and quality standards.
What is spray-dried SMP versus roller-dried SMP?
Spray-dried SMP is produced by atomising concentrated liquid skim milk in a hot air chamber — it has better solubility, lighter colour, and higher nutritional retention than roller-dried SMP. Roller-dried SMP is produced by drying liquid milk over hot rollers and has lower solubility and slightly cooked flavour. Spray-dried is the standard for food and nutraceutical applications.
