ABSTRACT
Photooxidation of
-casein to the extent of 15 moles of 02 per 30,000 g oxidizes 100% of the histidine and 70% of the tryptophan.
-Casein oxidized to this degree has lost completely its ability to stabilize as-casein and it is not acted on by rennin.
-Casein to which photooxidized
-casein is added (1:1) is not precipitated by calcium ions when acted on by rennin. Photooxidation of
-casein decreases the electrophoretic mobility in starch gel at pH 8.6, but on cellulose acetate the electrophoretic mobility is greater than that of the native
-casein.
