Abstract

The effects of lysozyme on coagulation of milk and cheese making were studied by means of the gelograph, tristimulus colorimetry, ANS-fluorescence (hydrophobicity) and SDS-PAGE. Lysozyme binding to caseins caused structural differences during coagulation and it is proposed that, if the products have similar qualitative properties, lysozyme might be used as a technological aid giving shorter clotting times and higher yields.
