Introduction
Milk is a white liquid secreted by the mammary glands of female cows, buffaloes etc. It is a food of exceptional inters probability. Milk is the most nutritious food found in nature. That is why it is widely consumed both in its natural forms and as diary product like butter, cheese etc.
Milk contains vitamins, proteins, carbohydrates and the major milk protein casein are found only in milk and nowhere else in nature. The Composition of casein in milk is not constant. It depends upon the source of milk.
Caesin is a major protein constituent in milk & is a mixed phosphor-protein. Casein has isoelectric pH of about 4.7 and can be easily separated around this isoelectric pH. It readily dissolves in dilute acids and alkalies. Casein is present in milk as calcium caseinate in the form of micelles. These micelles have negative charge and on adding acid to milk the negative charges are neutralized.
Ca Ca2+-Caesinate + 2CH3COOH(aq)→Caesin + (CH3COO)2
Theory
The protein, casein, existent, milk as the calcium salt, calcium casein etc. The salt has a complex structure and form micelles. These
