Abstract
Much attention has been given to studying the translational diffusion of globular proteins, whereas the translational diffusion of intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) is less studied. In this study, we investigate the translational diffusion and how it is affected by the self-association of an IDP, κ-casein, using pulsed-field gradient nuclear magnetic resonance and time-resolved Förster resonance energy transfer. Using the analysis of the shape of diffusion attenuation and the concentration dependence of κ-casein diffusion coefficients and intermolecular interactions, we demonstrate that κ-casein exhibits continuous self-association. When the volume fraction of κ-casein is below 0.08, we observe that κ-casein self-association results in a macroscopic phase separation upon storage at 4 °C. At κ-casein volume fractions above 0.08, self-association leads to the formation of labile gel-like networks without subsequent macroscopic phase separation. Unlike α-casein, which shows a strong concentration dependence and extensive gel-like network formation, only one-third of κ-casein molecules participate in the gel network at a time, resulting in a more dynamic and less extensive structure. These findings highlight the unique association properties of κ-casein, contributing to a better understanding of its behavior under various conditions and its potential role in casein micelle formation.

Abstract
β-casein is the second most abundant form of casein in milk. Changes in amino acid sequence at specific positions in the primary structure of β-casein in milk will produce gene mutations that affect the physicochemical properties of dairy products and the hydrolysis site of digestive enzymes. The screening method of β-casein allele frequency detection in dairy products also has attracted the extensive attention of scientists and farmers. The A1 and A2 β-casein is the two usual mutation types, distinguished by histidine and proline at position 67 in the peptide chain. This paper summarizes the effects of A1 and A2 β-casein on the physicochemical properties of dairy products and evaluates the effects on human health, and the genotyping methods were also concluded. Impressively, this review presents possible future opportunities and challenges for the promising field of A2 β-casein, providing a valuable reference for the development of the functional dairy market.

Abstract
Milk is a widely consumed nutrient-rich food containing protein variants such as casein A2 and A1. A1 differs from A2 in an amino acid at position 67 (Pro67 to His67). The breakdown of β-casein yields β-casomorphins (BCM), among which BCM-7 is extensively studied for its effects on the human body. Animal studies have shown that A1 β-casein milk increases digestive transit time and enhances myeloperoxidase activity. Individuals with lactose intolerance prefer A2 milk to conventional A1 milk, as BCM-7 in A1 milk can lead to inflammation and discomfort in sensitive individuals. A2 milk, which contains A2 β-casein, is believed to be more easily digestible than A1 β-casein. Its popularity has grown owing to reports linking A1 casein to diseases such as type 1 diabetes, heart disease, and autism. A2 milk has gained popularity as an alternative to A1 milk, primarily because of its potential benefits for individuals with certain diseases. This review aims to provide an updated understanding of A2 milk consumption and its health benefits.

Abstract
Liquid micellar casein concentrate (MCC) is an ideal milk-based protein ingredient for neutral-pH ready-to-drink beverages. The texture and mouthfeel of liquid MCC-based beverages depend on the beverage protein content, as well as the composition of soluble proteins in the aqueous phase around the casein micelle. The objective of this study was to determine the composition of soluble proteins in the aqueous phase around the casein micelles in skim milk and liquid MCC containing 7.0% and 11.6% protein content. Skim milk was pasteurized and concentrated to 7% protein content by microfiltration and then to 18% protein content by ultrafiltration. The 18% MCC was then serially diluted with distilled water to produce 11.6% and 7.0% protein MCC. Skim milk, 7.0% MCC, and 11.6% MCC representing starting materials with different protein concentrations were each ultracentrifuged at 100,605 × g for 2 h. The ultracentrifugation for each of the starting materials was performed at 3 different temperatures: 4°C, 20°C, and 37°C. The ultracentrifugation supernatants were collected to represent the aqueous phase around the casein micelle in MCC solutions. The supernatants were analyzed by Kjeldahl to determine the crude protein, casein, and casein as a percentage of crude protein content, and by sodium dodecyl sulfate PAGE to determine the composition of the individual proteins. Most of the proteins in MCC supernatant (about 45%) were casein proteolysis products. The remaining proteins in the MCC supernatant consisted of a combination of intact αS-, β-, and κ-caseins (about 40%) and serum proteins (14-18%). Concentrations of αS-casein and β-casein in the supernatant increased with decreasing temperature, especially at higher protein concentrations. Temperature and interaction between temperature and protein explained about 80% of the variation in concentration of supernatant αS- and β-caseins. Concentration of supernatant κ-casein, casein proteolysis products, and serum protein increased with increasing MCC protein concentration, and MCC protein concentration explained most of the variation in supernatant κ-casein, casein proteolysis products, and serum protein concentrations. Predicted MCC apparent viscosity was positively associated with the dissociation of αS- and β-caseins. Optimal beverage viscosity could be achieved by controlling the dissociation of these proteins in MCC.

Abstract
Milk, enriched with high-quality protein, is a healthy and nutritious food that meets people's needs. However, consumers are turning their attention to plant-based milk due to several concerns, such as lactose intolerance, allergies and some diseases caused by milk; carbon emission from cattle farming; economical aspects; and low access to vitamins and minerals. Oat milk, which is produced from whole grain oats, is lactose free and rich in a variety of nutrients and phytochemicals. With the significant development of food processing methods and advancement in milk simulation products, the production of plant-based milk, such as cereal milk, has greatly progressed. This review described some features of oat milk analogue versus traditional milk and compared the properties, processing technologies, health effects, environmental friendliness, and consumer acceptance of these products. It is expected to provide a reference for evaluating development trends and helping consumers choose between oat milk and traditional milk.

Abstract
Whey protein phospholipid concentrate (WPPC) contains high amounts of phospholipids (PL; 4.5 ± 1%) but there is interest in further enriching the PL content for nutritional and functional applications. Chemical methods were unsuccessful in separating PL from proteins due to the presence of protein-fat aggregates. Instead, we explored hydrolysis of the proteins to peptides with the objective of removing peptides, thereby concentrating the PL fraction. We used microfiltration (MF) with a pore size of 0.1 µm to help reduce protein/peptide retention. Hydrolyzing proteins should facilitate passage of low molecular weight peptides through the MF membrane, while concentrating fat and PL in the MF retentate. Bench-top experiments were performed to select the proteolytic enzyme that resulted in the most extensive hydrolysis of proteins in WPPC from among 5 different commercial proteases. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-PAGE analysis was performed to measure the extent of protein hydrolysis over a period of 4 h. Alcalase enzyme was found to exhibit the highest proteolytic activity at conditions of pH 8 and temperature 55°C. The intensity of major protein bands (milkfat globule membrane proteins, caseins, β-lactoglobulin) in WPPC decreased in sodium dodecyl sulfate-PAGE profiles as hydrolysis progressed, along with the appearance of low molecular weight bands. Pilot-scale MF production, coupled with diafiltration (DF), of the hydrolyzed sample aided in the removal of peptides that caused an ~18% reduction in protein content with the final retentate having a total PL content of 9.3% dry basis (db) with protein and fat contents at approximately 43.8 ± 0.4% (db) and 48.9 ± 1.2% (db), respectively. The MF permeate had minimal fat content, indicating that there was no transmission of lipids or PL through the membrane during the MF/DF process. Confocal laser scanning microscopy and particle size analysis of enzyme hydrolyzed solution revealed that protein aggregates were still present after 1 h of hydrolysis. Complete removal of proteins and peptides was not achieved by this process, suggesting that a combination of enzymes would be needed for further hydrolysis of protein aggregates in WPPC solution to further enrich the PL content.

Abstract
Color is an important characteristic of food. Over the last 15 years, more attention has been paid to natural colorants because of the rising demand for clean-label food products. Anthocyanins, which are a group of phytochemicals responsible for the purple, blue or red hues of many plants, offer a market advantage. In addition, anthocyanin-rich foods are associated with protection against cardiovascular disease, thrombosis, diabetes, cancer, microbial-based disorders, neurological disorders, and vision ailments. However, the real health value of anthocyanins, whether as a natural colorant or a functional ingredient, is dependent on the ultimate bioaccessibility and bioavailability in the human body. Many animal and human clinical studies revealed that, after intake of anthocyanin-rich foods or anthocyanin extracts, only trace amounts (< 1% of ingested content) of anthocyanins or their predicted metabolites were detected in plasma after a standard blood draw, which was indicative of low bioavailability of anthocyanins. Protein binding to anthocyanins is a strategy that has recently been reported to enhance the ultimate bioactivity, bioaccessibility, and bioavailability of anthocyanins as compared to anthocyanins delivered without a protein carrier. Therefore, in this review, we address anthocyanin properties in food processing and digestion, anthocyanin-protein complexes used in food matrices, and changes in the bioaccessibility and bioavailability of anthocyanins when bound into anthocyanin-protein complexes in foods. Finally, we summarize the challenges and prospects of this delivery system for anthocyanin pigments.

Abstract
The impact of amino acid mutations within the peptide structure of bovine milk protein is important to understand as it can effect processability and subsequently effect its physiological properties. Genetic polymorphisms of bovine caseins can influence the chemical, structural, and technological properties, including casein micelle morphology, calcium distribution, network creation upon gelation, and surface activity. The A1 and A2 genetic variants of β-casein have recently acquired growing attention from both academia and industry, prompting new developments in the area. The difference between these two genetic variants is the inclusion of either proline in β-casein A2 or histidine in β-casein A1 at position 67 in the peptide chain. The aim of this review was to examine the extent to which milk and ingredient functionality is influenced by β-casein phenotype. One of the main findings of this review was although β-casein A1 was found to be the dominant variant in milks with superior acid gelation and rennet coagulation properties, milks comprised of β-casein A2 possessed greater emulsion and foam formation capabilities. The difference in the casein micelle assembly, hydrophobicity, and chaperone activity of caseins may explain the contrast in the functionality of milks containing β-casein from either A1 or A2 families. This review provides new insights into the subtle variations in the physicochemical properties of bovine milks, which could potentially support dairy producers in the development of new dairy products with different functional properties. Impact of β- and other caseins on the casein micelle structure and functionality. Proline and histidine in β-caseins play a key role in casein micelle conformation. Chaperone activity of β-casein A2 towards heat-induced aggregation of whey protein. Gels prepared of milks with β-casein A1 possess a denser and firmer structure. Ordered structure of β-casein A2 led to improved emulsion and foam formation.

Abstract
The aim of the study was to investigate the properties of sodium caseinate dispersions and oil-in-water emulsions obtained from cows' milk of either A1/A1, A1/A2, or A2/A2 β-casein phenotype. Protein structural characterisation was examined using Fourier Transform Infrared and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance spectroscopies, with physicochemical and interfacial properties assessed by analysing adsorbed protein content, hydrophobicity, solubility, and emulsion stability of the samples. Results showed variations in the secondary structure of all samples dependent of the presence of A1 or A2 β-caseins. The main differences included greater amounts of α-helix and β-sheet in A1/A1 and A1/A2 sodium caseinate dispersions that influenced their lower solubility, while random coils/polyproline II helixes were found only in A2/A2 sodium caseinate dispersion. In contrast, upon adsorption on the interface of A2/A2 sodium caseinate emulsion, the protein adopted ordered conformational motifs. This conformational shift supposedly arose from structural differences between the two β-casein proteoforms, which most likely enhanced the emulsion properties of A2/A2 sodium caseinate compared to either A1/A1 or A1/A2 sodium caseinates. The A2 β-casein in both, A1/A2 and A2/A2 sodium caseinates, appears to be able to more rapidly reach the oil droplet surface and was more efficient as emulsifying agent. The current results demonstrated that the conformational rearrangement of proteins upon adsorption to emulsion interfaces was dependent not only on hydrophobicity and on solubility, but also on the conformational flexibility of A1/A1, A1/A2, and A2/A2 β-casein phenotypes. These findings can assist in predicting the behaviour of sodium caseinates during relevant industrial processing.

Abstract
Numerous people in African, Middle Asian, Middle Eastern, and Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries highly value camel milk (CM) as it plays a vital role in their diet. The protein composition of CM as well as the structure of its casein micelles differs significantly from bovine milk (BM). Cheeses made from CM have a weak curd and soft texture compared to those made from BM. This review article presents and discusses the effect of milk protein composition, processing conditions (pasteurization and high-pressure treatment), and coagulants (camel chymosin, organic acids, plant proteases) on the quality of CM cheeses. CM cheese's weak texture is due to compositional characteristics of the milk, including low κ-casein-to-β-casein ratio (≈0.05 in CM vs. ≈0.33 in BM), large micelle size, different whey protein components, and higher proteolytic activity than BM. CM cheese texture can be improved by preheating the milk at low temperatures or by high pressure. Supplementing CM with calcium has shown inconsistent results on cheese texture, which may be due to interactions with other processing conditions. Despite their structure, CM cheeses are generally well liked in sensory studies.

Abstract
Dairy products are among the most popular nutritious foods in the world. Understanding the relationship between the composition, process, and structural properties at different scales (molecular, microscopic, and macroscopic) is fundamental to designing dairy products. This review highlights the need to analyze this relationship from different scales as an essential step during product design through a multiscale approach.

Abstract
The low-resolution structure of casein (CN) clusters in sodium caseinate (NaCas) solution and its conformational dynamics were obtained by size-exclusion chromatography (SEC), analytical ultracentrifugation (AUC), small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The results of sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and native PAGE revealed that the casein clusters consisted predominantly of α- and β-CN complexes, and a trace amount of κ-CN. The AUC analysis indicated that the casein clusters were composed of 34.6% of casein monomers, 19.2%, 20.4%, and 25.8% of complexes with molar weight (Mw) of ~50.3, ~70.6, and ~133 kDa, respectively. The volume fractions of components in casein clusters were quantified as 64.3% of αs1-β-αs2-CN, 22.3% of αs1-CN, 8.5% of αs2-CN, and 4.4% of αs1-αs2-CN, respectively. The ensemble optimization method (EOM) gave a fitting result where αs1-β-αs2-CN species coexisted in ~35.3% under compact conformation and ~64.7% in elongated conformation in solution. The three-dimensional structures of αs1-β-αs2-CN from EOM showed a good overlay on the casein clusters ab initio model obtained from DAMMIN and DAMMIX program. MD simulations revealed that αs1-β-αs2-CN underwent a conformational change from the elongated state into the compact state within the initial 200 ns of simulations. The addition of nonionic surfactants affected little the backbone-to-backbone interactions in the formation of the casein clusters. We propose that αs1-CN, β-CN, αs2-CN, and κ-CN associated in consecutive steps into casein clusters, and a trace of κ-CN may be located at the surface of the assemblies limiting the growth of casein aggregates.

Abstract
Bioactive food components have potential health benefits but are highly susceptible for degradation under adverse conditions such as light, pH, temperature and oxygen. Furthermore, they are known to have poor solubilities, low stabilities and low bioavailabilities in the gastrointestinal tract. Hence, technologies that can retain, protect and enable their targeted delivery are significant to the food industry. Amongst these, microencapsulation of bioactives has emerged as a promising technology. The present review evaluates the potential use of casein micelles (CMs) as a bioactive delivery system. The review discusses in depth how physicochemical and techno-functional properties of CMs can be modified by secondary processing parameters in making them a choice for the delivery of food bioactives in functional foods. CMs are an assembly of four types of caseins, (αs1, αs2, β and κ casein) with calcium phosphate. They possess hydrophobic and hydrophilic properties that make them ideal for encapsulation of food bioactives. In addition, CMs have a self-assembling nature to incorporate bioactives, remarkable surface activity to stabilise emulsions and the ability to bind hydrophobic components when heated. Moreover, CMs can act as natural hydrogels to encapsulate minerals, bind with polymers to form nano capsules and possess pH swelling behaviour for targeted and controlled release of bioactives in the GI tract. Although numerous novel advancements of employing CMs as an effective delivery have been reported in recent years, more comprehensive studies are required to increase the understanding of how variation in structural properties of CMs be utilised to deliver bioactives with different physical, chemical and structural properties.

Abstract
Consumers are increasingly demanding foods that are more ethical, sustainable and nutritious to improve the health of themselves and the planet. The food industry is currently undergoing a revolution, as both small and large companies pivot toward the creation of a new generation of plant-based products to meet this consumer demand. In particular, there is an emphasis on the production of plant-based foods that mimic those that omnivores are familiar with, such as meat, fish, egg, milk, and their products. The main challenge in this area is to simulate the desirable appearance, texture, flavor, mouthfeel, and functionality of these products using ingredients that are isolated entirely from botanical sources, such as proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids. The molecular, chemical, and physical properties of plant-derived ingredients are usually very different from those of animal-derived ones. It is therefore critical to understand the fundamental properties of plant-derived ingredients and how they can be assembled into structures resembling those found in animal products. This review article provides an overview of the current status of the scientific understanding of plant-based foods and highlights areas where further research is required. In particular, it focuses on the chemical, physical, and functional properties of plant-derived ingredients; the processing operations that can be used to convert these ingredients into food products; and, the science behind the formulation of vegan meat, fish, eggs, and milk alternatives.

Abstract
Caseins are recognized as safe for consumption, abundant, renewable and have high nutritional value. Casein molecules are found in different aggregation states and their multiple binding sites offer the potential for delivering biomolecules with nutritional and/or health benefits, such as vitamins, phytochemicals, fibers, lipids, minerals, proteins, peptides, and pharmaceutical compounds. In the present review, we highlight the interactions between caseins and food-derived bioactive molecules, with a special focus on the aggregation states of caseins and the techniques used to produce and study the particles used for delivering. Research on interactions between caseins-minerals and casein-pharmaceutical molecules are not included here. This review aims to support the development of new and innovative functional foods in which caseins can be used as designed delivery systems.

Abstract
In this study, we investigated the effect of pH and calcium on the structural properties of gels created by high-pressure processing (HPP, 600 MPa, 5°C, 3 min) of milk protein concentrate (MPC, 12.5% protein). The pH level of the MPC was varied between 6.6 and 5.1 by adding glucono-δ-lactone (GDL), and the calcium content was varied from 24 to 36 mg of Ca/g of protein by adding calcium chloride. The rheological properties and microstructure of the pressure-treated MPC were assessed. The pressurization treatments and analytical testing were conducted in triplicate. Data were analyzed statistically using one-way ANOVA with Tukey's honestly significant difference post hoc tests. A pressurization time of 3 min was sufficient to induce gel formation in MPC at pH 6.6, so it was used throughout the study. Adjusting either pH or calcium affected the structure of the HPP-created milk protein gels, likely by influencing electrostatic interactions and shifting the calcium-phosphate balance. Gels were formed after pressurization of MPC at pH above 5.3, and increasing the pH from 5.3 to 6.6 resulted in stronger gels with higher values of elastic moduli (G'). At neutral pH (6.6), adding calcium to MPC further increased G'. Scanning electron microscopy showed that reducing pH or adding calcium resulted in more porous, aggregated microstructures. These findings demonstrate the potential of HPP to create a variety of structures using MPC, facilitating a new pathway from dairy protein ingredients to novel, gel-based, high-protein foods, such as puddings or on-the-go protein bars.

Abstract
Interactions holding protein structure in cheese has been a subject of considerable investigation, with conclusions varying among studies. We present a review on this topic, covering fresh curds, ripened cheeses, and processed cheeses. We discuss the usual chemicals and conditions used to probe different types of interactions. Furthermore, we did our own study with solutions of urea, SDS, EDTA, NaCl, and NaOH, at different concentrations and combinations, for Emmental cheese. To quantify solubilized protein, we developed a modification of a spectrometric-based method that can be conveniently employed to quantify total protein in cheese, with statistically similar results to those obtained by the Kjeldahl method. Our results point out that caseins in the Emmental cheese are held together by a set of hydrophobic interactions, hydrogen bonds, and other electrostatic ones, including ionic bonds. Hydrogen bonds seem to have an important role, comparable to hydrophobic interactions, a conclusion not commonly reported for cheese structures.

Abstract
Many consumers are interested in decreasing their consumption of animal products, such as bovine milk, because of health, environmental, and ethical reasons. The food industry is therefore developing a range of plant-based milk alternatives. These milk substitutes should be affordable, convenient, desirable, nutritional, and sustainable. This article reviews our current understanding of the development of plant-based milks. Initially, an overview of the composition, structure, properties, and nutritional profile of conventional bovine milk is given, because the development of successful alternatives depends on understanding the characteristics of real milk. The two main production routes for fabricating plant-based milks are then highlighted: (i) disruption of plant materials (such as nuts, seeds, or legumes) to form aqueous suspensions of oil bodies; (ii) formation of oil-in-water emulsions by homogenization of oil, water, and emulsifiers. The roles of the different functional ingredients in plant-based milks are highlighted, including oils, emulsifiers, thickeners, antioxidants, minerals, and other additives. The physicochemical basis of the appearance, texture, and stability of plant-based milks is covered. The importance of the sensory attributes and gastrointestinal fate of bovine milk and plant-based alternatives is also highlighted. Finally, potential areas for future work are discussed.

Abstract
The work presents the kinetic and isotherm studies of silver binding on casein, which was carried out using batch sorption technique. Moreover, the influence of light irradiation on the process was shown. In order to investigate the mechanism of metal ions sorption by casein the zero, pseudo-first order kinetics and Weber-Morris intra-particle diffusion as well as Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models were used. Furthermore, to specify more precisely, the possible binding mechanism, the spectroscopic (FT-IR—Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy, Raman), spectrometric (MALDI-TOF MS—Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization Time Of Flight Mass Spectrometry), microscopic (SEM—Scanning Electron Microscope, TEM/EDX—Transmission Electron Microscopy/Energy Dispersive X-ray detector) and thermal (TGA—Thermogravimetric Analysis, DTG—Derivative Thermogravimetry) analysis were performed. Kinetic study indicates that silver binding onto casein is a heterogeneous process with two main stages: initial rapid stage related to surface adsorption onto casein with immediate creation of silver nanoparticles and slower second stage of intraglobular diffusion with silver binding in chelated form (metalloproteins) or ion-exchange form. Spectroscopic techniques confirmed the binding process and MALDI-TOF MS analysis show the dominant contribution of the α-casein in the process. Moreover, the treatment of silver-casein complex by artificial physiological fluids was performed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The textural characteristics of fermented dairy products are important quality parameters that play a major role in their stability and consumer's acceptance. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of sodium caseinate, starch, lactose and lactic acid bacteria as ferment on the syneresis in a mixed model system, and to evaluate their impact on the acid gel formation throughout pH and zeta potential monitoring. Accordingly, a protocol was designed to perform an experimental design by using a mixture of the selected factors. RESULTS A significant decrease of syneresis was detected in all mixtures at 8% of sodium caseinate, ranging between a minimum of 1.8% and a maximum of 20.6% compared to the mixtures at 3% of sodium caseinate in which the syneresis decrease had ranged between a minimum of 22.2% and a maximum of 47.8%. The addition of starch had a significant impact on the acidification profile and on the syneresis of the fermented mixed model. Moreover, the monitoring of pH and zeta potential during the lacto-fermentation process has also led to a better understanding of the acid gelation and the syneresis variations. CONCLUSION Syneresis varies very closely with sodium caseinate concentration, starch concentration and also with their association, regardless of the concentrations of lactose and ferment. In fact syneresis could be reduced to an optimum level if a sodium caseinate-starch mixed system is employed: Less syneresis gels could be obtained at a sodium caseinate concentration above 5% if starch is used above 1%.

Abstract
Interactive effects of casein micelle size and milk calcium and citrate content on rennet-induced coagulation were investigated. Milk samples containing small (SM) and large (LM) micelles, obtained from individual Holstein cows, were modified by addition of calcium and/or citrate and milk coagulation properties were evaluated in a full factorial design. The results showed that LM milk had a higher relative proportion of casein, coagulated faster, and resulted in a stronger gel than SM milk. Addition of calcium slightly decreased casein micelle size, while addition of citrate slightly increased micelle size. Calcium addition resulted in a shorter coagulation time and the strongest gels, while citrate addition increased the coagulation time and resulted in the weakest gels. Addition of calcium and citrate in combination resulted in intermediate coagulation properties. The interactive effect of micelle size and citrate was significant for gel strength. Microstructural differences between the milk gels were consistent with the rheological properties, for example, the micrographs revealed that a more homogeneous network was formed when calcium was added, resulting in a stronger gel. A more inhomogeneous network structure was formed when citrate was added, resulting in a weaker gel. Thus, variations in casein micelle size and in calcium and citrate content influence rennet-induced coagulation in bovine milk. The calcium and citrate contents in Swedish milk have changed over time, whereby calcium content has increased and citrate content has decreased. In practical cheese making, calcium is added to cheese milk, most likely altering the role of inherent citrate and possibly influencing casein micelle size. The observed interaction effect between casein micelle size and citrate in this study, suggests that larger micelles with moderate citrate level will result in firmer gels, whereas a higher citrate content reduced gel strength more in case of large than SM. Since firmer gels are likely to retain more protein and fat than less firmer gels, this interaction effect could have implications in practical cheese production.

Abstract
Multilayer films containing α- and β-casein and polypeptides, poly-L-lysine (PLL), and poly-L-arginine (PLArg) were formed by the layer-by-layer technique and Fourier Transform InfraRed spectroscopy with Attenuated Total Reflection (FTIR-ATR) and FTIR/Grazing Angle analyzed their infrared spectra. We investigated the changes of conformations of casein and polypeptides in the complexes formed during the build-up of the films. To elucidate the differences in the mechanism of complex formation leading to various growths of (PLL/casein)n and (PLArg/casein)n films, we performed the molecular dynamics simulations of the systems consisting of short PLL and PLArg chains and the representative peptide chains—casein fragments, which consists of several aminoacid sequences. The results of the simulation indicated the preferential formation of hydrogen bonds of poly-L-arginine with phosphoserine and glutamic acid residues of caseins. FTIR spectra confirmed those, which revealed greater conformational changes during the formation of casein complex with poly-L-arginine than with poly-L-lysine resulting from stronger interactions, which was also reflected in the bigger growth of (PLArg/casein)n films with the number of deposited layers.
