Casein-based powders are gaining industrial interest due to their nutritional and functional properties, but they are also known to have poor rehydration abilities. The fundamental physical and chemical mechanisms involved in the rehydration of these powders are essential for determining the critical steps in the manufacturing processes and for developing casein powders with improved rehydration properties. A number of analytical methods have been developed to measure the rehydration ability of powders, but criteria for the selection of methods for casein-based powders have not been provided. This review article provides an overview of the characteristics and methods for the production of casein-based powders, methodologies to measure their rehydration properties, and it summarizes the current state of understanding regarding rehydration. Advancements have been made in the field; however, a fundamental understanding enabling improvement of the rehydration properties of these powders is still lacking.

Yogurt, produced by the lactic fermentation of milk base, is an important dairy product worldwide. One of the essential sensory properties of yogurt is the texture, and some textural defects such as weak gel firmness and syneresis likely occur in various types of yogurts, affecting consumer acceptance. In this regard, various strategies such as enrichment of milk-based with different additives and ingredients such as protein-based components (skimmed milk powder (SMP), whey protein-based powders (WP), casein-based powders (CP), and suitable stabilizers, as well as modification of processing conditions (homogenization, fermentation, and cooling), can be applied in order to reduce syneresis.

Compared to conventional formulations of ENR, casein (Cas)-based drug delivery system has been reported to have significant advantages in the improvement of solubility and bioavailability of drugs. In this paper, we report the preparation process of ENR-loaded Cas nanoparticles (ENR-Cas) using magnetic agitation without any organic agent and the optimization of the formulation.

Objectives: Curcumin belongs to the family of curcuminoids, natural polyphenolic compounds that possesses neuroprotective properties, anti inflammatory and anticancer. Its entrapment in the developed casein-based micellar powder (CMP) and poloxamer-based micellar powder (PMP) was to enhance the solubility and improve the bioavailability. Henceforth, the present study aimed to acquire an efficient analytical method for the curcumin analysis in polymeric micellar formulations.

Dairy-based powder had considerable development in the recent decade. Meanwhile, the increased variety of dairy-based powder led to the complex difficulties of rehydrating dairy-based powder, which could be the poor wetting or dissolution of powder. To solve these various difficulties, previous studies investigated the rehydration of powder by mechanical and chemical methods on facilitating rehydration, while strategies were designed to improve the rate-limiting rehydration steps of different powder.
