whey contains more than half of total solids present in the original milk, which includes 20% of the proteins, most of the lactose, minerals and water soluble vitamins. in this study, selective separation of whey components by aphron flotation (separation of ultrafine particles by micro-bubbles) has been investigated. it has been shown that it is possible to recover valuable components of whey ...

Some animals thrive more satisfactorily on a milk that contains whey and curd protein. For this reason human milk protein (which contains about 40% whey) may have some advantages over cows' milk protein (which contains about 15% whey) and so infants feeding formulae based on demineralised whey in which the protein has been modified to achieve a curd:whey ratio similar to that in human milk may ...

Heat treatment of milk aims to inhibit the growth of microbes, extend the shelf-life of products and improve the quality of the products. Heat treatment also leads to denaturation of whey protein and the formation of whey protein-casein polymer, which has negative effects on milk product. Hence the milk heat treatment conditions should be controlled in milk processing. In this study, the denatu...

Whey is a valuable co-product from cheese making that serves as a raw material for a wide range of products. Its rich nutritional content lends itself to rapid spoilage, thus it typically needs to be pasteurised and refrigerated promptly. Despite the extensive literature on milk spoilage bacteria, little is known about the spoilage bacteria of whey. The utility of carbon dioxide (CO2) to extend...

An in-depth proteomic study of sheep milk whey is reported and compared to the data available in the literature for the cow whey proteome. A combinatorial peptide ligand library kit (ProteoMiner) was used to normalize protein abundance in the sheep whey proteome followed by an in-gel digest of a 1D-PAGE display and an in-solution digestion followed by OFFGEL isoelectric focusing fractionation. ...

The present study was undertaken to make crude comparison between whey obtained from paneer and cheese during manufacturing. Paneer and cheese whey were compared in terms of all the minerals as well as physicochemical properties indispensable for electrolyte drink. The slight differences attributed, among various parameters can be mainly due the difference in manufacturing process. Our results ...

this study prepared new edible composite film by blending kefiran with whey protein. the film-forming solutions used different ratios of kefiran to whey protein (70/30, 50/50, 30/70, 10/90) and were cast at room temperature. the effects of the addition of whey protein on the physical, mechanical and water-vapor permeability (wvp) properties of the film were investigated. it was found that an in...

An accurate assessment of moisture content in feed ingredients is important because moisture influences the nutritional evaluation of feedstuffs. The objective of this study was to evaluate various methods for moisture content determination. In Exp. 1, the weight loss on drying (LOD) of corn, soybean meal (SBM), distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS), whey permeate, whey powder, spray-dri...

Preterm infants are susceptible to necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC). Using preterm pigs, we determined whether a whey-casein-based formula would be superior to a formula based on whey protein alone. Twenty cesarean-derived preterm pigs (92% gestation) were given total parenteral nutrition for 36 h followed by 30 h of enteral feeding with whey [protein fraction of milk formula based on whey (WHEY...
