Abstract
Casein-based hydrogels (Casein Gels) possess advantageous properties, including mechanical strength, stability, biocompatibility, and even adhesion, conductivity, sensing capabilities, as well as controlled-releasing behavior of drugs. These features are attributed to their gelation methods and functionalization with various polymers. Casein Gels is an important protein-based material in the food industry, in terms of dairy and functional foods, biological and medicine, in terms of carrier for bioactive and sensitive drugs, wound healing, and flexible sensors and wearable devices. Herein, this review aims to highlight the importance of the features mentioned above via a comprehensive investigation of Casein Gels through multiple directions and dimensional applications. Firstly, the composition, structure, and properties of casein, along with the gelation methods employed to create Casein Gels are elaborated, which serves as a foundation for further exploration. Then, the application progresses of Casein Gels in dairy products, functional foods, medicine, flexible sensors and wearable devices, are thoroughly discussed to provide insights into the diverse fields where Casein Gels have shown promise and utility. Lastly, the existing challenges and future research trends are highlighted from an interdisciplinary perspective. We present the latest research advances of Casein Gels and provide references for the development of multifunctional biomass-based hydrogels.

Abstract
Sweet and, to a lesser extent, acid whey protein ingredients can be used for the formulation of infant nutritional products. Unlike acid whey, sweet whey contains caseinomacropeptide (CMP), a heat-stable peptide liberated from κ-casein during cheese and rennet casein manufacture. Four protein systems-sweet whey (SW) and acid whey (AW), with or without standardization for CMP protein content-were added to skim milk (50/50, wt/wt) and unheated or heated to 85 or 110°C. These 12 samples were assessed for physicochemical stability in the presence of added calcium at pH 6.8. The effect of CMP content on the physicochemical properties of the protein systems was also assessed. Without preheat treatment, mixtures of AW and skim milk (SM) were more heat stable than SW and SM, demonstrating the effect of whey protein type on heat stability. Preheat treatment of the SW in the presence of SM significantly improved the heat stability of the resultant protein systems on subsequent heating. All of the protein systems had significantly lower heat stability with the addition of Ca, although the reduction was significantly smaller for the heated protein systems than the unheated controls. The findings can help identify heating parameters and ingredients for optimizing processing stability and physicochemical characteristics of nutritional beverages such as infant formulations.

Abstract
Sheep milk is considered unstable to UHT processing, but the instability mechanism has not been investigated. This study assessed the effect of UHT treatment (140°C/5 s) and milk pH values from 6.6 to 7.0 on the physical properties of sheep skim milk (SSM), including heat coagulation time, particle size, sedimentation, ionic calcium level, and changes in protein composition. Significant amounts of sediment were found in UHT-treated SSM at the natural pH (∼6.6) and pH 7.0, whereas lower amounts of sediment were observed at pH values of 6.7 to 6.9. The proteins in the sediment were mainly κ-casein (CN)-depleted casein micelles with low levels of whey proteins regardless of the pH. Both the pH and the ionic calcium level of the SSM at all pH values decreased after UHT treatment. The dissociation levels of κ-, β-, and αS2-CN increased with increasing pH of the SSM before and after heating. The protein content, ionic calcium level, and dissociation level of κ-CN were higher in the SSM than values reported previously in cow skim milk. These differences may contribute to the high amounts of sediment in the UHT-treated SSM at natural pH (∼6.6). Significantly higher levels of κ-, β-, and αS2-CN were detected in the serum phase after heating the SSM at pH 7.0, suggesting that less κ-CN was attached to the casein micelles and that more internal structures of the casein micelles may have been exposed during heating. This could, in turn, have destabilized the casein micelles, resulting in the formation of protein aggregates and high amounts of sediment after UHT treatment of the SSM at pH 7.0.

Abstract
The composition of seasonal pasture-produced milk is influenced by stage of lactation, animal genetics, and nutrition, which affects milk nutritional profile and processing characteristics. The objective was to study the effect of lactation stage (early, mid, and late lactation) and diet on milk composition in an Irish spring calving dairy research herd from 2012 to 2020 using principal component and predictive analytics. Crude protein, casein, fat, and solids increased from 2012 to 2020, whereas lactose concentration peaked in 2017, then decreased. Based on seasonal data from 2013 to 2016, forecasting models were successfully created to predict milk composition for 2017 to 2020. The diet of cows in this study is dependent upon grass growth rates across the milk production season, which in turn, are influenced by weather patterns, whereby extreme weather conditions (rainfall and temperature) were correlated with decreasing grass growth and increasing nonprotein nitrogen levels in milk. The study demonstrates a significant change in milk composition since 2012 and highlights the effect that seasonal changes such as weather and grass growth have on milk composition of pasture-based systems. The potential to forecast milk composition at different stages of lactation benefits processers by facilitating the optimization of in-process and supply logistics of dairy products.

Abstract
The present work aimed to improve acid and rennet milk gelation properties with mild thermal and pH changes to skim milk, with emphasis on heating temperatures below the denaturation temperature of whey proteins. We hypothesized the heat-induced, pH-dependent micellar changes, namely the shifts in casein and calcium equilibria between the micellar (or colloidal) and serum phases, result in firmer acid and rennet milk gels and reduced gelation time. Homogenized, pasteurized skim milk was adjusted to pH values in the range of 6.4 to 7.3, heated at temperatures in the range of 50 to 80°C, cooled to refrigeration temperature, and restored to native pH (pH 6.7). Then, acid and rennet gels were made by the addition of glucono-δ-lactone and chymosin, respectively. We monitored the storage modulus (G', Pa) during gel formation with small-amplitude oscillatory shear and the gelation time and maximum G' (G'max, Pa) of acid and rennet gels, were measured at 3 and 2 h, respectively. When skim milk was heated at 50°C for 15 min, there was a 58 and 163% increase in the G'max of acid and rennet gels, respectively, as the pH at heating was raised from pH 6.7 to 7.3. Increases in gel strength were greater for skim milk heated at 60°C for 15 min. There was a positive correlation between G'max of acid gels and the heat-induced casein protein exchanges between the micellar and serum phases on heating milk at pH in the range from 6.4 to 7.3 (r = 0.78). We also found positive correlations between the variation in G'max of rennet gels with the heat-induced, pH-dependent migration of casein (r = 0.83) and calcium (r = 0.80) from the micelle into the serum phase, as determined by PAGE and atomic emission spectroscopy. Under these mild heating temperatures (50 and 60°C), rennet coagulation time was significantly reduced from 45 ± 5 to 27 ± 3 min when the pH at heating was raised from pH 6.7 to 7.3. The ability to enhance milk gelation properties with a scalable pretreatment allows for the expression of novel functionality of casein.

Abstract
Microfluidics is used in many applications ranging from chemistry, medicine, biology and biomedical research, and the ability to measure pH values in-situ is an important parameter for creating and monitoring environments within a microfluidic chip for many such applications. We present a portable, optical fibre-based sensor for monitoring the pH based on the fluorescent intensity change of an acrylamidofluorescein dye, immobilized on the tip of a multimode optical fibre, and its performance is evaluated in-situ in a microfluidic channel. The sensor showed a sigmoid response over the pH range of 6.0–8.5, with a maximum sensitivity of 0.2/pH in the mid-range at pH 7.5. Following its evaluation, the sensor developed was used in a single microfluidic PDMS channel and its response was monitored for various flow rates within the channel. The results thus obtained showed that the sensor is sufficiently robust and well-suited to be used for measuring the pH value of the flowing liquid in the microchannel, allowing it to be used for a number of practical applications in ‘lab-on-a-chip’ applications where microfluidics are used. A key feature of the sensor is its simplicity and the ease of integrating the sensor with the microfluidic channel being probed.

Calcium-Reduced Micellar Casein Concentrate-Physicochemical Properties of Powders and Functional Properties of the Dispersions. Foods 2022; 11:foods11101377.

Abstract
This study aimed to examine the physicochemical properties of 30% calcium (Ca)-reduced micellar casein 80% protein powders (RC-MCC) and the functional properties of the resultant dispersions. The calcium reduction in the micellar casein (MCC) powder was achieved by subjecting the liquid micellular casein obtained from the microfiltration of pasteurized skim milk to carbon dioxide (CO2) treatment before and during ultrafiltration. The CO2 injection was controlled to obtain a 0 and 30% reduction in calcium in the C-MCC (control) and RC-MCC powders, respectively. The MCC powders were tested for physicochemical properties such as chemical composition, particle size distribution, and bulk density. The MCC powders were reconstituted in deionized water to test the functional properties of the dispersions, i.e., solubility, viscosity, heat stability, emulsifying capacity, emulsion stability, foam capacity, and foam stability. The CO2 injection did not result in any significant differences in the composition except mineral contents, particularly calcium. The particle size and bulk density of RC-MCC powders were significantly (p < 0.05) lower than control powders. The RC-MCC powder dispersions showed increased heat stability compared to control, whereas no significant changes in viscosity and emulsification capacity were observed between the two dispersions. However, the emulsion stability and foam stability of RC-MCC dispersions were significantly lower than C-MCC dispersions. This study showed that by utilizing a novel microfiltration−CO2 injection−ultrafiltration process, 30% calcium-reduced MCC powder was commercially feasible. This research also provides a detailed understanding of the effect of calcium reduction on the functional properties of resultant MCC dispersions. It showed that calcium reduction could improve the solubility of the powders and heat stability and foam capacity of the dispersions.

Abstract
Seasonal calving, pasture-based dairy systems are widely practiced in countries with a temperate climate and plentiful rainfall such as Ireland and New Zealand. This approach maximizes milk production from pasture and, consequently, is a low-cost, low-input dairy production system. On the other hand, the majority of global milk supply is derived from high input indoor total mixed ration systems where seasonal calving is not practiced due to the dependence on ensiled silages, grains and concentrated feeds, which are available year-round. Synchronous changes in the macro and micronutrients in milk are much more noticeable as lactation progresses through early, mid and late stages in seasonal systems compared to non-seasonal systems-which can have implications on the processability and functionality of milk.

Abstract
The ability of milk and concentrated milk to withstand a defined heat treatment without noticeable changes such as flocculation of protein is commonly denoted as heat stability. A heat treatment that exceeds the heat stability limit of milk or concentrated milk, which has a much lower heat stability, may result in undesired changes, such as separation of milk fat, grittiness, sediment formation, and phase separation. Most laboratory-scale batch heating methods were developed in the early 20th century to simulate commercial sterilization, and these methods have since been standardized. Heat stability studies have been motivated by different objectives during that time, addressing different processing issues and targets in the framework of available technology, legislation, and consumer demand. Although milk hygiene has improved during the last couple of decades, rendering milk less sensitive to coagulation, different standard methods suffered from poor comparability of results, even when comparing results for the same milk sample, indicating that unknown procedural steps affect heat stability. The prediction of heat stability of concentrated milk from the heat stability results of the corresponding unconcentrated milk for rapid quality testing purposes has been difficult, mainly due to different experimental conditions. The objective of this study is to review literature on heat stability, starting from studies in the early 20th century, to summarize the vast number of studies on compositional aspects of milk affecting heat stability, and to lead the way to the most recent work related to compositional changes in concentrates produced by membrane concentration and fractionation, respectively. Particular attention is paid to early and most recent developments and findings, such as the application of kinetic models to predict and limit protein aggregation to assess and describe heat stability as a temperature-time-total milk solids continuum.

Abstract
The relevance of pH assessment in clinical analysis, environmental and industrial control, has raised the demand for the development of portable, low cost and easy-to-use monitoring systems. This paper proposes a pH sensor printed on a paper support passivated with a solid-ink coating. The sensor exploits the pH sensitivity of a reduced graphene oxide functionalized with 3-(4-aminophenil)propionic acid. The sensor responded in the pH range [4], [10] and had a sensitivity of 46 mV/pH. Tests on human plasma and seawater proved this pH sensor to have similar performances than those of a commercial pH-meter with an uncertainty of 0.1 and 0.2 pH unit in plasma and seawater, respectively.

Abstract
This study examined the effect of dietary factors on compositional and functional properties of whole milk powder (WMP) produced from bovine milk. Raw milk samples were obtained from 3 groups of 18 Holstein Friesian spring-calving cows randomly assigned to diets based on perennial ryegrass (GRS), perennial ryegrass/white clover sward (CLV), and total mixed ration (TMR). Raw milks obtained in late lactation were subsequently standardized for fat, heat-treated (90°C for 30 s), evaporated, and homogenized before spray drying. The WMP produced from each diet were analyzed to determine differences in color, particle size distribution, heat coagulation time, yogurt gelation, texture profile, and protein profile due to each diet. Significant differences in heat coagulation time were observed between the CLV and TMR samples, whereas color values were significantly different between GRS and TMR samples. No significant differences in gross composition, protein profile, or whey protein nitrogen index were found between the 3 WMP samples. Average D90 values (the particle size at which 90% of the particles were smaller than the specified size) for fat globules were significantly lower in the TMR sample compared with the GRS and CLV samples. Yogurts produced from GRS- and CLV-derived WMP had significantly higher elastic moduli (G') than those produced from TMR-derived WMP. Similarly, texture profile analysis revealed significantly higher firmness values in yogurt samples derived from CLV compared with TMR samples. Our data characterize the effect of these diets on the composition and functional properties of fat-standardized WMP, suggesting better yogurt functionality and thermal stability in WMP derived from pasture-based bovine diets.

Abstract
We determined seasonal variations in the composition and characteristics of bovine milk, as well as heat-induced changes in the physicochemical properties of the milk, in a typical seasonal-calving New Zealand herd over 2 full milking seasons. Fat, protein, and lactose contents varied consistently during the year in patterns similar to those of the lactation cycle. Seasonality also had significant effects on milk calcium, ionic calcium, fat globule size, buffering capacity, and ethanol stability, but not on casein micelle size. The ratio of casein to total protein did not vary significantly over the season, but late-season milk had the highest content of glycosylated κ-casein (G-κ-CN) and the lowest content of α-lactalbumin in both years. We observed significant between-year effects on protein, total calcium, ionic calcium, pH, and casein:total protein ratio, which might have resulted from different somatic cell counts in the 2 years. Compared with heating at 90°C for 6 min, UHT treatment (140°C for 5 s) induced greater dissociation of κ-casein, a similar extent of whey protein denaturation, a lower extent of whey protein-casein micelle association, and a larger increase in casein micelle size. Indeed, UHT treatment might have triggered significant dissociation of G-κ-CN, resulting in aggregation among the casein micelles and increased apparent mean casein micelle diameter. Seasonality had significant effects on the partitioning of G-κ-CN between the micelle and the serum phase, the extent of whey protein-casein micelle association under both heating conditions, and the casein micelle size of the UHT milk.

Abstract
Innovative clean label processes employed in the manufacture of acid gels are targeted to modify the structure of proteins that contribute to rheological properties. In the present study, CO2-treated milk protein concentrate powder with 80% protein in dry matter (TMPC80) was mixed with nonfat dry milk (NDM) in different ratios for the manufacture of acid gels. Dispersions of NDM and TMPC80 that provided 100, 90, 70, and 40% of protein from NDM were reconstituted to 4.0% (wt/wt) protein and 12.0% (wt/wt) total solids. Dispersions were adjusted to pH 6.5, followed by heat treatment at 90°C for 10 min. Glucono-δ-lactone was added and samples were incubated at 30°C, reaching pH 4.5 ± 0.05 after 4 h of incubation. Glucono-δ-lactone levels were adjusted to compensate for the lower buffering capacity of samples with higher proportions of TMPC80, which is attributable to the depletion of buffering minerals from both the serum and micellar phase during preparation of TMPC80. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-PAGE analysis indicated a higher amount of caseins in the supernatant of unheated suspensions with increasing proportions of CO2-treated TMPC80, attributable to the partial disruption of casein micelles in TMPC80. Heat treatment reduced the level of whey proteins in the supernatant due to the heat-induced association of whey proteins with casein micelles, the extent of which was larger in samples containing more micellar casein (i.e., samples with a lower proportion of TMPC80). Particle size analysis showed only small differences between nonheated and heated dispersions. Gelation pH increased from ˜5.1 to ˜5.3, and the storage modulus of the gels at pH 4.5 increased from ˜300 to ˜420 Pa when the proportion of protein contributed by TMPC80 increased from 0 to 60%. Water-holding capacity also increased and gel porosity decreased with increasing proportion of protein contributed by TMPC80. The observed gel properties were in line with microstructural observations by confocal microscopy, wherein sample gels containing increasing levels of TMPC80 exhibited smaller, well-connected aggregates with uniform, homogeneous pore sizes. We concluded that TMPC80 can be used to partially replace NDM as a protein source to improve rheological and water-holding properties in acid gels. The resultant gels also exhibited decreased buffering, which can improve the productive capacity of yogurt manufacturing plants. Overall, the process can be leveraged to reduce the amount of hydrocolloids added to improve yogurt consistency and water-holding capacity, thus providing a path to meet consumer expectations of clean label products.

Abstract
Curcuminoids have low bioavailability due to low aqueous solubility. We compared the bioaccessibility of curcuminoids delivered in buttermilk yogurt to that of curcuminoid powder in an aqueous dispersion. Buttermilk containing added curcuminoids (300 mg/100 g, 0.3% w/w) was used for yogurt manufacture. We measured percentage of curcuminoids remaining in yogurts after manufacture and after exposure to simulated gastrointestinal fluids, and the in vitro bioaccessibility of the curcuminoids. Curcuminoids were stable during yogurt manufacture. At the end of in vitro digestion, approximately 11% of the curcuminoids delivered in yogurt was degraded compared to <1% for curcuminoids in an aqueous dispersion. However, curcuminoids delivered in yogurt was 15-fold more bioaccessible than curcuminoids in aqueous dispersion. The small change in yogurt properties (decrease in total lactic acid bacteria counts of <1 log and increased viscosity) on addition of curcuminoids has to be balanced against the benefits of increased bioaccessibility of curcuminoids when delivered in yogurts.

Abstract
Heated (20-100 °C/0-30 min) skim milks (pH 6.5-7.1) were diluted in buffer (pH 7.0). Rennet was added, and the particle size with time was measured. For all samples, the size initially decreased (lag phase) and then increased (aggregation phase). Milks heated at ≤60 °C had short lag phases and rapid aggregation phases regardless of pH. Milks heated at >60 °C at pH 6.5 had long lag phases and slow aggregation phases. As the pH increased, the lag phase shortened and the aggregation phase accelerated. The aggregation time was correlated with the level of whey protein associated with the casein micelles and with the level of κ-casein dissociated from the micelles. Heated milks formed weak gels when renneted. It is proposed that the milks heated at low pH have whey proteins associated with the casein micelles and that these denatured whey proteins stabilize the micelles to aggregation by rennet and therefore inhibit gelation. In the milks heated at higher pH, the whey proteins associate with κ-casein in the serum and, on rennet treatment, the κ-casein-depleted micelles and the serum-phase whey protein/κ-casein complexes aggregate; however, the denatured whey proteins stabilize the aggregates so that gelation is still inhibited.

Abstract
SUMMARYWhey protein complexed and became co-sedimentable with casein micelles after heating milk at ≥ 90°C for 10 min at pH ≤ 6·9 while at higher pH values (7·3) whey proteins and κ-casein-rich protein dissociated from the micelles on heating. κ-Casein-deficient micelles were more sensitive to heat, Ca2+ or ethanol than whey protein-coated or native micelles and were readily coagulable by rennet. Isolated κ-casein added to skim milk before preheating (90°C for 10 min) did not associate with the micelles at pH ≥ 6·9. Sodium dodecyl sulphate increased the level of both non-sedimentable N (NSN) and N-acetylneuraminic acid (NANA) and shifted the NSN-pH and NANA-pH curves to more acidic values while cetyltrimethylammonium bromide had the opposite effect. It is suggested that the pH-dependent dissociation in micellar κ-casein, which appears to be reversible, depends on the surface charge on the micelles; at a certain negative charge, disruption of hydrophobic and electrostatic forces could result in the dissociation of κ-casein from the casein micelles.

Abstract
SummaryOn heating casein micelle systems containing β-lactoglobulin (β-lg) at 90°C for 10 min, β-lg complexed with casein micelles at pH < 6·9, probably as a result of interaction with κ-casein via sulphydryl-disulphide interchange, and co-sedimented with the micelles on ultracentrifugation. Complex formation with β-lg appeared to prevent the dissociation of micellar κ-casein on heating. However, at pH ≥ 6·9, κ-casein/β-lg complexes dissociated from the micelles on heating, thus enhancing the release of micellar κ-casein. High concentrations of β-lg (≥0·8%) induced coagulation at pH 7·3, essentially by promoting the dissociation of micellar κ-casein. It appeared that αs1-, αs2-, β- and κ-caseins dissociated from serum protein-free casein micelles to equal extents, but the presence of β-lg specifically enhanced the dissociation of κ-casein at pH values ≥ 6·9. Micelle hydration increased slightly when casein micelles were heated in the presence of β-lg at pH 6·7, while at pH 7·3 β-lg decreased the degree of hydration of casein micelles. Formation of a complex between β-lg and κ-casein appeared to stabilize the micelles in the pH range 6·5–6·7, possibly via increased micellar charge or degree of hydration or by preventing the dissociation of κ-casein.

Abstract
SummaryReducing the colloidal calcium phosphate (CCP) content of milk by 40% or increasing it by 20% did not significantly affect the heat-induced pH-dependent dissociation of micellar κ-casein. However, changes in soluble Ca and phosphate affected the dissociation of κ-casein markedly; decreasing the phosphate concentration or increasing the Ca concentration reduced the formation of non-sedimentable N (NSN) and non-sedimentable 12% TCA-insoluble N-acetyl-neuraminic acid (NANA). Dialysis of milk against water for short periods (∼ 5 h) reduced the formation of both NSN and non-sedimentable 12% TCA-insoluble NANA, as did NaCl at concentrations above 0·05 M. Modification of protein amino groups by succinylation promoted the release of κ-casein while amidation of carboxyl groups had the opposite effect. It appears that the pH-dependent dissociation of κ-casein produced on heating milk above 90°C is controlled by electrostatic interactions. The effects of soluble ions such as Ca2+ or Na+ appear to be due to shielding of such negatively-charged groups as seryl phosphate and carboxyl on the protein, thus reducing the release of κ-casein.

Abstract
SummaryAddition of reducing agents such as 2-mercaptoethanol (2-ME), dithio-threitol and Na sulphite to milk markedly reduced its heat stability at pH values below 7·1. 2-ME reversibly destabilized milk or serum protein-free casein micelle dispersions and promoted the release of κ-casein-rich protein from the micelles. Reduction of either casein micelles or β-lactoglobulin (β-lg) with 2-ME and subsequent blocking of the newly formed –SH groups with N-ethylmaleimide irreversibly reduced the maximum to minimum ratio in the heat stability profile. 2-ME disrupted κ-casein/β-lg complexes and stripped κ-casein from the micelles on heating. The milk or caseinate systems were thus destabilized. Addition of KBrO4or iodosobenzoate to milk at 5 HIM eliminated the minimum but destabilized milk in the region of the maximum. However, KIO3at 5 mm had a strong stabilizing effect throughout the pH range 6·5–7·3.

Abstract
SummaryChemical and physical changes that occur in Na caseinate (at 1 or 2% in water, pH 7·0) on heating in the range 120–150 °C were investigated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, ion-exchange and gel-permeation chromatography, light scattering, u.v. spectroscopy, amino acid analysis, and the formation of pH 4·6 and 12% TCA-soluble N and 12% TCA-soluble P. The electropherograms of heated samples were smeared and indistinct suggesting intermolecular aggregation which was not reversed by 6 M-urea or SDS and indicating covalent bond formation; αs2-casein was especially sensitive. Aggregation was confirmed by ion-exchange chromatography and light scattering. Fragmentation of the caseins also occurred on heating, as indicated by the formation of pH 4·6 and 12% TCA-soluble N and by gel filtration. Formation of soluble N and dephosphorylation followed first-order kinetics. Concentrations of available lysine and available methionine were reduced by 10–15% on heating at 140 °C for 30min; chemical assays for arginine and tryptophan indicated increases, suggesting interference. Ultraviolet spectroscopy indicated a slight apparent increase in aromatic residues after heating at 140 °C for up to 60 min.

Abstract
SummaryHeating milk at 140 °C caused an initial increase in the percentage of total casein sedimented at 10000 g for 1 h and in the relative viscosity, but as heating continued both parameters decreased before increasing again just before the onset of visible coagulation. This suggests that heating milk at high temperatures caused an initial aggregation of casein micelles with a concomitant increase in particle size and weight, followed by dissociation of these aggregates with reaggregation just before coagulation. Chromatography of heated milk on controlled pore glass confirmed the above suggestion. Calcium appeared to play a major role in the initial association of casein micelles which was also influenced by the initial pH and total solids concentration but whey protein had no effect.

Abstract
SummaryThe effect of preheat treatment, evaporation and drying in a commercial plant on the denaturation of βlactoglobulin and α-lactalbumin, their incorporation into the casein micelle and the heat stability characteristics of the milks and powders were determined. Preheat treatments between 110 °C for 2 min and 120 °C for 3 min denatured between 80 and 91% of β-lactoglobulin and between 33 and 45% of α-lactalbumin. Evaporation increased the extent of denaturation but spray drying did not increase it further. The incorporation of α-lactalbumin and βlactoglobulin into the micelles was markedly less than the amount that denatured and was not a constant ratio to it. Heat coagulation times at 140 °C of milks, concentrates and powders diluted to the original milk concentration were measured as a function of pH. In general, the greater the collective heat treatment, the shorter the time required to achieve coagulation. Spray drying shifted the peak positions in the pH-heat coagulation time profiles. In contrast, heat coagulation times (measured at 120 °C) of concentrates and powders diluted to 20% total solids content increased with the severity of the preheat treatment. Surprisingly, spray drying markedly increased the heat coagulation times of the diluted concentrates.

Abstract
SummarySkim milks were prepared from skim milk powder at several concentrations between 10 and 25% total solids and portions were pH-adjusted to between pH 6·3 and 7·1 and heated at 120°C. After ultracentrifugation (88000 g for 90 min), the supernatants were analysed using gel electrophoresis to determine the concentrations of β-lactoglobulin, α-lactalbumin and κ-casein. The dissociation of κ-casein from the micelles was dependent on both the pH and the total solids content of milk before heating. Both higher pH (in the range 6·5–7·l) and higher concentration increased the extent of dissociation. A further series of samples were heated for 2–11 min at 120°C at pH 6·55. κ-Casein dissociation increased with concentration and with heating time. It was concluded that as the milk increased in concentration, the pH at which micellar κ-casein dissociated on heating was lowered.
