Intern Heat-induced aggregation of caseins
During the manufacture of caseinates, the material can be subjected to high temperature (>80C) for prolonged times (10 min). If this occurs at high casein concentration, this can result in the heat-induced aggregation of some of the caseins, which is undesirable. To enable accurate control over these phenomena, quantitative relationships into the effect of key contributing factors, e.g., time, temperature, casein concentration, calcium and pH are necessary. The aim of this internship is to establish such relationships and enable minimization of heat-induced casein aggregation during processing.
