Interactions between lipids and milk proteins in emulsion
The interactions between nitroxide homologs of fatty acids and purified components of milk proteins in a model food emulsion were studied using electron spin resonance. The importance of the interactions in emulsions decreased in the order alpha-s1-casein beta-lactoglobulin beta-casein whole casein....

Summary: | The interactions between nitroxide homologs of fatty acids and purified components of milk proteins in a model food emulsion were studied using electron spin resonance. The importance of the interactions in emulsions decreased in the order alpha-s1-casein beta-lactoglobulin beta-casein whole casein. alpha-s1 Casein resulted in a better organization of the lipid monolayer. Neither the flexibility nor the tertiary structure of the proteins explained this result. It appeared that the interactions occurred through lipid polar heads and protein polar side chains due to hydrogen bonds and/or electrostatic interactions |
