Summary

Whey proteins have been isolated from cheese whey by complex formation with carboxymethylcellulose. The protein preparations form stable gels and foams when reconstituted in water. A study has been made of the effect of concentration, pH and temperature on the gelling behaviour of the whey protein isolates, and the conditions necessary for a standard gelling test have been defined. Proteose-peptones (p-p) have been prepared from a whey protein isolate which showed a strong tendency to gel, and also from heated and unheated milk. The gelling behaviour of whey protein isolates, which showed either no tendency or a strong tendency to gel, has been studied in the presence and absence of added p-p. The quantities added varied from 0·05 mg isolated from unheated milk to 15 mg from heated milk. No change in gelling time was observed, and it was concluded that p-p were not responsible for the gelling behaviour exhibited by whey protein isolates.
