NDRI Develops Technology to Nearly Double Paneer Shelf Life to 20 Days
Scientists at ICAR-National Dairy Research Institute (NDRI), Karnal, have developed a patented antimicrobial coagulant formulation (AMCF) that nearly doubles paneer's shelf life from 8-10 days to around 20 days. The technology maintains paneer's taste, texture, and quality while enhancing storage stability and microbial safety. Developed by Dr. Pradip Behare and his team over nearly nine years, the innovation is ready for commercial use and aims to reduce wastage, improve market reach, and benefit dairy processors and small-scale entrepreneurs.
