Studying the Effect of Adding Some Polysaccharides on Functional Properties of Milk Proteins


Abstract in English

The study was accomplished on proteins (caseins – whey proteins) of local milk after producing casein by precipitation with ethanol , and whey proteins by heat precipitation. The functional properties (Water Binding – Emulsifying Properties – Gelation) were studied on prepared milk proteins , the witness experiment (pure casein) was followed for comparison. This functional properties were repeated after adding xanthane and starch with three different concentrations for each kind of proteins , then the results were compared. For statistical analysis, the system of totally –random selections was applied, and a comparison was made as of L.S.D test, and possibility level at 5%. The results showed improvement in functional properties of prepared milk proteins when xanthane and starch were added in the percentage ( 5 - 5 – 10 % ) for the properties (Water Binding – Emulsifying Properties – Gelation ) respectively.
