Table 1.

Protein composition of the Whey Protein Concentrate (WPC).

% of Total Protein EH-WPC MP-WPC
β-lactoglobulin 39% 37%
α-lactalbumin 20% 23%
β-casein 28% 24%
others 13% 16%

The percentage of specific casein and whey proteins in WPC at pH 7.1, determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) analysis. EH-WPC = extensively heated whey protein concentrate, MP-WPC = mildly pasteurized whey protein concentrate.
