DESCRIPTION

Alpha-Lactalbumin occurs as a homogenous, free-flowing, semi-hygroscopic, light cream-colored powder. It is a lyophilized or spray-dried powder of compact globular metalloprotein that may contain a single bound calcium ion and is capable of binding zinc and other metals. Alpha-Lactalbumin is isolated either from bovine milk or from whey, both of which should be from edible sources suitable for human use. It may contain suitable stabilizers.
