Abstract: | The milk proteins alpha-lactalbumin and beta-lactoglobulin have been isolated from bovine whey by fractional precipitation with polyethylene glycol (PEG) and hydrophobic partitioning in aqueous PEG-hydroxypropylstarch two-phase systems using PEG-bound palmitate as hydrophobic ligand. The possible use of this combination for large scale purification of these whey proteins is discussed. |
