Enzymatic hydrolysis, a process of digestion, is an old and known food biotechnology. Through experience, research, and innovation Asta evolved this old process into breakthrough technology, and thereby elevating this biotechnology to an entirely new level; overcoming the commercialization barrier of what to do with animal protein liquid hydrolysate that contains 65% to 75% water.
Instead of your traditional batch process, Asta employs an automated Continuous Enzymatic Hydrolysis™ that is rapid, controlled, and pathogen free. From perishable raw material input, to shelf-stable pasteurized protein powder output, process time is less than 60 minutes. And equally important to rapid process time, are low process temperatures; meaning gentle on temperature sensitive nutrients.
