The isolation of whey β-lactoglobulin

Abstract

The analysis of existing methods for the isolationofwhey β- lactoglobulin is conducted and it is established that the following methods such aschromatography, membrane filtration, precipitation and thermaldenaturation are used actually. The possibility of the isolationofβ- lactoglobulinwith precipitation and thermal denaturation methods is determined in laboratory conditions. Based on the results of the experiments it is established that indicatedmethods can be used to isolate whey β- lactoglobulin, though it is necessary to consider them in the context of possible combination with others.
