Ion-exchange separates and concentrates protein based on their electrical charge using chemicals.
Chemicals (such as hydrochloric acid).
High level of allergenic component of whey, -lactoglobulin.
Valuable bioactive components get destroyed.
Poor amino acid profile.
Ion Exchange
CFM separates out and concentrates protein using filters, carefully preserving the biological activity.
No chemicals.
Low level of -lactoglobulin.
Valuable bioactive components remain intact.
Superior quality with better amino acid profile.
