In this study, it was aimed to investigate α -S1-casein and β -lactoglobulin levels some biochemical mineral values in raw milk samples obtained from cows, buffaloes, sheep, goats raised Samsun. The study material consisted of 40 taken goats, sheep buffaloes after milking a farm Samsun province Bafra district. α-S1-casein β-lactoglobulin serum were determined using ELISA test kits. Calcium (Ca)...

Lactoferrin (LF) and β-lactoglobulin (BLG) are among the protein pairs that exhibit heteroprotein coacervation, a unique and relatively unexamined type of liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS). In prior work we found that LF and BLG undergo coacervation at highly constrained conditions of pH, ionic strength and protein stoichiometry. The molar stoichiometry in coacervate and supernatant is LF :...

b-lactoglobulin (coded by the b-lg gene) is the major milk whey protein in ruminants. studies have shown that this protein is polymorphic in many breeds of sheep as a result of a single base pair substitution in the b-lg gene that also gives rise to rsai restriction fragment length polymorphism (rflp). blood samples were collected from 391 animals belonging to 5 iranian and 6 russian sheep bree...

We have studied the formation and the stability of grafted block complex coacervate core micelles (C3Ms) in solution and the influence of grafted block C3M coatings on the adsorption of the proteins beta-lactoglobulin, bovine serum albumin, and lysozyme. The C3Ms consist of a grafted block copolymer PAA(21)-b-PAPEO(14) (poly(acrylic acid)-b-poly(acrylate methoxy poly(ethylene oxide)), with a ne...

Objective: To investigate the humoral and cellular immune response against cow’s milk proteins in Behçet’s disease and to distinguish any behaviour during active or inactive disease. Methods: Peripheral blood mononuclear cells from 16 patients and from eight normal controls were cultured in the presence of phytohaemagglutinin (PHA), β-casein, β-lactoglobulin, or chicken egg albumin. Interferon ...

Protein glycation (non-enzymatic glycosylation) and the development of advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) is strongly associated with the pathogenesis of diabetic secondary complications [I ] . Hydroxyl radicals generated from superoxide via the Fenton reaction have been implicated for in virro AGE formation [2]. The term glycoxidation has been coined to emphasise the involvement of metal c...

Temperature jump studies of aqueous @-lactoglobulin have been conducted between pH 3.7 and 2.0, where a reversible dissociation of the protein into two identical subunits has been reported to occur, using methyl orange as an indicator. Two relaxation processes have been observed, both of which can be attributed to intramolecular interactions between the indicator dye and protein rather than to ...
