Heat induced interactions in whey protein depleted milk concentrates: Comparison of ultrafiltration and microfiltration

Processing Quality of Milk-Protein Concentrates Obtained by Ultrafiltration

The article deals with the study of processing quality of milk-protein concentrates obtained by ultrafiltration. Creaming ability of milk-protein concentrates obtained by ultrafiltration is inevitably associated with the presence of rehydrated proteins in its composition. With increasing temperature, the ability of proteins to absorb on the plasma-gas interface is reduced, as evidenced by a dec...

Study of ultrafiltration of defatted whey protein concentrates (WPC) withdrawn from an industrial plant

Impact of Ovine Whey Protein Concentrates and Clarification By-Products on the Yield and Quality of Whey Cheese

The effects of the addition of whey protein concentrates and clarification by-products obtained from ovine cheese whey and deproteinized whey (Sorelho) on the yield and quality of the whey cheese (Requeijão) have been evaluated. Whey protein concentrates were obtained by ultrafiltration of skimmed whey and Sorelho. The clarification by-products were obtained after the treatment of the skimmed w...

Effect of pH on Structural Properties of Heat-Induced Whey Protein Gels

Formation and structure of whey protein heat-induced gels (100 mg mL-1) through heat treatment at 80 °C and pH modifications at three pH values of acidic (2), isoelectric (5.6) and neutral (7) were studied. The obtained results indicated that the nature of the primary gel networks was different at each pH value. The heat-induced gels produced at pH of 2 and 7, had acceptab...

Performance Evaluation of Ceramic Membrane on Ultrafiltration and Diafiltration Modes for Efficient Recovery of Whey Protein

The recovery of high-quality, valuable end products from cheese whey is a very important industrial process. The aim of this study is to improve the recovered protein content of concentrate stream in cheese whey. The experiments were conducted by using ceramic ultrafiltration (UF) membrane followed by diafiltration (DF) process with a 15kDa molecular weight cut-off (MWCO). The volume concentrat...
