Wedholm, A. 2008. Variation in milk protein composition and its importance for the quality of cheese milk. Doctoral dissertation. IS 978-91-85913-46-6, ISSN: 1652-6880 Variations within the bovine milk protein profile can have both positive and negative impacts on the quality of cheese milk. As main contributors to the cheese structure, the caseins are important for the cheese yield. During the...

In this study, we report differences in the observed gliding speed of microtubules dependent on the choice of bovine casein used as a surface passivator. We observed differences in both speed and support of microtubules in each of the assays. Whole casein, comprised of α(s1), α(s2), β, and κ casein, supported motility and averaged speeds of 966±7 nm/s. Alpha casein can be purchased as a combina...

A variety of proteins contributes greatly to the unique nutritional and functional quality of dairy cow milk. Particularly, milk casein content and composition have substantial influence on the processing capabilities. In the present study, milk of 23 multiparous Holstein-Friesian cows, grouped as high(3.49 ± 0.05%; n = 11) and low-protein (3.03 ± 0.05%; n = 12) cows, was sampled approximately ...
