During neonatal life, challenges from breast milk and microbial flora promote immune system maturation. Immunonutrition in these stages may become an important way to increase natural defence systems. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of a daily bovine milk whey protein concentrate (WPC) supplement on the intestinal and systemic immune systems in suckling rats. The composition o...

The aim of this research is to quantify the competitive adsorption of a whey protein concentrate (WPC) and hydroxypropyl-methyl-cellulose (HPMC so called E4M, E50LV and F4M) at the air-water interface by means of dynamic surface tensiometry and Brewster angle microscopy (BAM). These biopolymers are often used together in many food applications. The concentration of both protein and HPMC, and th...

Previously undescribed oligosaccharides in bovine cheese whey permeate were characterized by a combination of nanoelectrospray Fourier Transform Ion Cyclotron Resonance (nESI-FTICR) mass spectrometry and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance (MALDI-FTICR) mass spectrometry. Oligosaccharide composition was elucidated by collision-induced dissociati...

BACKGROUND Phosphatidic acid (PA) is a diacyl-glycerophospholipid that acts as a signaling molecule in numerous cellular processes. Recently, PA has been proposed to stimulate skeletal muscle protein accretion, but mechanistic studies are lacking. Furthermore, it is unknown whether co-ingesting PA with other leucine-containing ingredients can enhance intramuscular anabolic signaling mechanisms....

Minyak cengkeh mempunyai fungsi sebagai antioksidan, anti penuaan, dan antimikroba. Penyimpanan pemanfaatan minyak dalam bentuk cair beberapa kelemahan seperti kelarutan air stabilitas pada suhu ruang yang rendah, serta potensi penurunan kualitas selama proses penyimpanan. Oleh karena itu diperlukan modifikasi guna mengatasi kelemahan-kelemahan tersebut, diantaranya adalah melalui enkapsulasi. ...

guar gum and whey proteins concentrate (wpc-35) were used as functional additives to improve the functional characteristics (hardness and meltability) of the na-caseinate-based imitation cheese. also, the alterations in the composition, sensory acceptance, color, and texture caused by these ingredients were evaluated. imitation cheeses were formulated with three levels each of wpc (0, 1.5, and ...

The suitability of polysulfone ultrafiltration membranes (UFM) designed for commercial water treatment has been investigated for separation of protein (PR) from sweet whey. Ultrafiltration (UF) of whey originated from dairy has been realized by a self-made pilot plant, which has been in service for about one year. The influence of two whey temperatures (9 and 30 °C) on the efficiency of protein...

The current study was conducted to investigate the effects of ultrasound times and amplitudes on particle sizes emulsifying properties samples whey protein concentrate (WPC). (US) application performed using VC-7500 ultrasonic power equipment at a 20 kHz frequency, various (10, 20, 30 min 50% amplitude) (60%, 80%, 100% for 5 min). results showed that US procedure had significant effect (p&l...

cow’s milk whey consists of many protein components and some of them are antigens to human and known to modulate immune responses. enzymatic hydrolysis is a useful method to modify proteins with allergenicity. the objective of this study was to identify whether the in vitro enzymatic hydrolysis could reduce the allergenicity of whey protein concentrates (wpc). in  this study, wpc were hydrolyze...

Classical methods of the extraction of active ingredients from the plant material are expensive, complicated and often environmentally unfriendly. The micelle-mediated extraction method (MME) seems to be a good alternative. In this work, extractions of elderberry blossoms (Flos Sambuci) were performed using MME methods. Several popular surfactants and whey protein concentrate (WPC) was applied ...
