This study was conducted to evaluate changes in composition of whey proteins of Czech White Short-haired goat and East Friesian ewe milk and their comparison throughout lactation. Some differences in composition between ewe and goat milk were found. The results showed that the mean total protein (%), whey protein (g/100 g), and β-lactoglobulin (β-Lg, g/100 g) contents of goat milk were 2.75, 0....

BACKGROUND Cow's milk-derived whey hydrolysates are nutritional substitutes for allergic infants. Safety or residual allergenicity assessment of these whey hydrolysates is crucial. Currently, rat basophilic leukemia RBL-2H3 cells expressing the human IgE receptor α-chain (huFcεRIα-RBL-2H3), sensitized with serum IgE from cow's milk allergic children, are being employed to assess in vitro residu...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of resistance exercise on the mRNA expression of muscle mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), muscle-specific RING finger-1 (MuRF-1), and muscle atrophy F-box (MAFbx) in the presence or absence of whey protein ingestion. We hypothesized that resistance exercise in combination with whey protein ingestion alters the gene expression of pr...

Background and Objectives: Whey is a product of cheese production process that has more than half the nutrients of milk. Production of whey-based beverages, is one of the most efficient mechanisms for entering these products into the human food chain butits production is facing challenges. Protein sedimentation as a result of the thermal processing and the appealing sensory properties of the be...

The differential ability of various milk protein fractions to stimulate muscle protein synthesis (MPS) has been previously described, with whey protein generally considered to be superior to other fractions. However, the relative ability of a whole milk protein to stimulate MPS has not been compared to whey. Sixteen healthy middle-aged males ingested either 20 g of milk protein (n = 8) or whey ...

Background: Lactoperoxidase (LPO) is one of the most heat-stable enzymes in milk and its inactivation has been proposed for monitoring thermal processes. The aim of this study was to provide information on activity and thermal inactivation behavior of LPO in Iranian cow and buffalo milk and whey. Methods: Sixty cow and buffalo milk samples were collected. The LPO activity was measured using spe...

This experiment compared the replacement of whey protein with isolated soy protein (ISP), or 2 levels of a hydrolyzed vegetable protein mixture (Lo HVPM and Hi HVPM, containing a partially hydrolyzed blend of soy, wheat, and other proteins) in liquid milk-replacer diets fed to neonatal pigs from 2 to 19 d of age. Piglets fed the vegetable protein diets weighed 20% more (8179 +/- 211 g, P < 0.05...

1. Milk proteins of the Galapagos fur seal (Arctocephalus galapagoensis) were separated adequately into whey and casein fractions using bovine milk analysis methods. 2. In samples from days 5-30 of lactation 40% of the total proteins were whey and 60% caseins; in mid-lactation, day 150, 25% were whey and 75% casein proteins. 3. Electrophoretic and isoelectric focusing patterns of fur seal whey ...

Background Protein intake is essential to maximally stimulate muscle protein synthesis, and the amino acid leucine seems to possess a superior effect on muscle protein synthesis compared to other amino acids. Native whey has higher leucine content and thus a potentially greater anabolic effect on muscle than regular whey (WPC-80). This study compared the acute anabolic effects of ingesting 2 × ...
