Milk proteins

k-casein, ß-casein and ß-lactoglobulin


Numerous researches have shown important associations between milk protein genetic variants and milk production traits (manufacturing properties of milk and cheese production). Because of these associations, since several years ago, the interest in selecting for favourable milk protein genotypes was considerable.
