Dissociation and interfacial properties of A1 and A2 variants of β‐CN

International Journal of Dairy Technology, Volume 79, Issue 2, April–June 2026.
The functional properties of the A1 and A2 variants of bovine β‐casein, as evaluated on purified proteins isolated from milk by microfiltration, are different, as are their rates of dissociation from casein micelles. This could explain reported differences in functional properties of milk from cows possessing these variants.

Comparative Analysis of Rapid and Less Invasive Methods for A2A2 Dairy Cattle Genotyping and A2 Milk Purity Detection

Dairy
In this study, two methods for assessing the purity of A2 fermented milk and β-casein genotypes in dairy cows were examined. The need for rapid and precise methods for herd screening and A2 milk quality control justified this study. Accordingly, an ELISA

Casein intake post weaning modulates gut microbial, metabolic and behavioral profiles in rats

, 2021
The postnatal period is critical for brain and behavioral development and it is sensitive to environmental stimuli, such as nutrition. Prevention of weaning from maternal milk was previously shown to result in stress-induced immobility during the forced ...

Investigation of the Effects of Beta-Casein Protein Variants on Lactose Maldigestion

, 2023
Background information: Lactose is a disaccharide found in milk and milk products. Lactose is digested by the enzyme lactase. Lactase non-persistence is a genetic trait in which individuals have low lactase activity. Approximately 70 percent of the world
