Description

A product of milk used in the manufacture of prepared foods, paints, glues and plastics.

Commercial casein of good quality is a dry, friable, white or slightly brown powder. Casein of inferior quality has an unpleasant smell and is usually moist and dark-coloured, which may lead a surveyor to believe that it has been damaged in transit. Quality depends on the nitrogen and albumen content. The commodity is prone to absorb moisture, resulting in loss of nitrogen. Care must therefore be taken in stowage, i.e. sufficient dunnage, away from ship sides and steel bulkheads, etc.
