Abstract
Dairy whey, a waste product of cheese production, is fermented with an organism to produce a whey product containing an emulsifier. Fermentation is carried out by forming a fermentation broth of whey or whey and oil, and optionally yeast extract and then fermenting the broth with Candida lipolytica. The resultant fermented whey product is used as an emulsifying agent in the food industry.
