Microencapsulating Properties of Whey Proteins. 2. Combination of Whey Proteins with Carbohydrates

Health Enhancing Properties of Whey Proteins and Whey Fractions

Whey is a reliable source for a number of high quality and biologically-active proteins, carbohydrates and minerals. Whey products can be classified into several categories (see Whey product descriptions and composition in Reference Manual for U.S. Whey Products). This review highlights some of the nutritional and health-enhancing properties of the major and minor whey proteins and whey compone...

whey proteins of rabbit milk

Caseins were separated from whey proteins by acid precipitation of skimmed rabbit milk. Whole casein was resolved by sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis into three major bands with apparent relative molecular masses (Mr of 31 000, 29 000 and 25 000. On agarose/urea-gel electrophoresis whole casein gave three bands with electrophoretic mobilities a, , and y. The three comp...

Sarcopenia and Whey Proteins

A prevalent illness among older adults, sarcopenia entails the loss of muscle mass, strength and function. Research indicates its onset around 40 with profound repercussions after approximately 75 years of age. The world now witnesses an unprecedented trend in population aging, bearing significant implications for the healthcare industry and the labor force. SARCOPENIA AND WHEY PROTEINS Implica...

Complexation of whey proteins with carrageenan.

The formation of electrostatic complexes of whey protein (WP) and a nongelling carrageenan (CG) was investigated as a function of pH, ionic strength, temperature, and protein-to-polysaccharide (Pr:Ps) ratio. On lowering the pH, the formation of soluble WP/CG complexes was initiated at pH(c) and insoluble complexes at pH(phi), below which precipitation occurred. The values of the transition pH v...
