Become a Protein Pro: The Fundamentals of Developing Protein Drinks (Webinar)

The protein beverage market is booming and isn’t expected to slow down any time soon. Developing these types of beverages can be quite challenging, though, and requires a deep understanding about the molecular makeup of different proteins on the market and how they will react when exposed to elements like heat or acid. During this hour-long webinar, you will improve your technical knowledge about the makeup of protein structures and formulation and processing considerations. You will also have the opportunity to look at real world case studies for different protein product types. This webinar is ideal for R&D team members or other industry professionals who want a crash course on protein beverages and want to apply it to bench top development.
