Product Applications
  • TKPP is not currently regulated under 21 CFR 182 or 184 for food substances. It is, however, considered by FDA to be Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) – based on a previous SCOGS (Select Committee on GRAS Substances) review – for its intended use as a multiple purpose food ingredient, when used in accordance with good manufacturing practice, as stated in a letter from FDA on 10/10/2003. (Copy of letter is available upon request.)
  • Processed Cheese Products: TKPP helps to buffer the pH of the cheese and interacts with the milk protein to promote emulsification.
  • Flavored Milk Powders: Liquid TKPP can be added to the wet ingredient mix prior to spray drying. The TKPP will stabilize and disperse the proteins during drying. In addition the use of TKPP will improve the overall viscosity, smoothness, and flavor of the final beverage.
  • Pet Food: TKPP is used to modify proteins enabling them to solubilize and retain moisture during storage. TKPP also increases shelf life of products by sequestering multivalent cations responsible for lipid oxidation and rancidity development.
