Micellar casein isolate is a purified form of casein derived from milk, retaining its natural micellar structure for slow digestion, commonly used in protein powders for muscle recovery. It is classified under tariff item 3501.90.00 as an 'other' casein derivative, as it undergoes isolation processes beyond basic casein production and is not a glue or excluded product.
