Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I buy Whey Protein Concentrate WPC 80 in Hyderabad for sports nutrition?
Surravi Phharma supplies Whey Protein Concentrate (WPC 80, NLT 80% protein) in Hyderabad. Ready stock. Most widely used protein raw material for supplement manufacturing. Call +91 8008002576 for bulk pricing.
What is the difference between WPC 80, WPC 65, and WPC 34?
WPC is classified by protein content: WPC 34 (34% protein, used in food manufacturing), WPC 65 (65% protein, intermediate grade), and WPC 80 (80% protein, standard sports nutrition grade). WPC 80 is the most commonly used grade in supplement manufacturing, balancing high protein content with cost-effectiveness.
Does WPC 80 contain lactose?
Yes. WPC 80 typically contains 4–8% lactose and 4–8% fat. While most people tolerate this lactose amount without issues (especially in typical serving sizes of 25–30g), lactose-intolerant individuals may prefer Whey Protein Isolate (WPI 90), which contains NMT 1% lactose. Many commercial WPC 80 products are tolerated by mildly lactose-sensitive consumers.
Why is WPC 80 preferred over WPI for some sports nutrition products?
WPC 80 retains naturally occurring growth factors (IGF-1, TGF-β), immunoglobulins, and lactoferrin that are partially removed during the additional filtration steps used to make WPI. Some research suggests these bioactive components contribute additional anabolic and immune benefits. WPC 80 is also significantly more cost-effective than WPI, making it the preferred choice for mass-market protein products.
What are the key quality parameters to check when sourcing WPC 80?
Key quality parameters: protein content (NLT 80% on dry basis), moisture (NMT 5%), fat content (NMT 8%), lactose content, ash content, and microbiological parameters (total plate count, E. coli, Salmonella, S. aureus). Always request a full COA and, for infant formula applications, insist on Cronobacter/Enterobacteriaceae testing.
