  • size exclusion chromatography with on line light scattering absorbance and refractive index detectors for studying Proteins and their interactions
    Analytical Biochemistry, 1996
    Co-Authors: J Wen, T Arakawa, John S Philo
    Abstract:

    Techniques of using size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) with on-line light-scattering, uv absorbance, and refractive index detectors to characterize the polypeptide molecular weights of Simple Proteins or glycoProteins or to determine the stoichiometry of protein complexes are described. Two unique advantages of this approach over conventional SEC are that the molecular weight measurement is independent of elution position and can exclude the contributions from carbohydrates. When a protein or complex contains no carbohydrates, a two-detector method, i.e., light scattering combined with refractive index, can be used to calculate the molecular weight. When a protein contains carbohydrates, a three-detector method is used to calculate the molecular weight of polypeptide alone. Finally, a self-consistent three-detector method is used to determine the stoichiometry of a protein complex containing carbohydrates. Example applications for all these methodologies are described.

  • Functional Properties of Edible Films Using Whey Protein Concentrate
    Journal of Dairy Science, 1995
    Co-Authors: R. Banerjee, H Chen
    Abstract:

    Abstract Methodologies were developed to form edible films of Simple Proteins or protein-lipid composited using whey protein concentrate. The functional properties of whey protein concentrate films were compared with those of the films derived from sodium caseinate, potassium caseinate, calcium caseinate, and whey protein isolate. Water vapor permeability of Simple whey protein concentrate film was lower than that for films of sodium caseinate, potassium caseinate, and whey protein isolate. Composite whey protein concentrate film had the lowest water vapor permeability of all the milk protein films. The ultimate tensile strengths of Simple whey protein concentrate films were similar to those of caseinate films. Whey protein concentrate films exhibited lower puncture strengths than did films from other milk Proteins except Simple film from sodium caseinate. Whey protein concentrate and isolate films had higher elongation values than did Simple calcium caseinate films. Transmission electron microscopy revealed the presence of residual milk fat embedded in the protein matrix in whey protein concentrate films. Whey protein concentrate films had good water vapor barrier and mechanical properties that were comparable with those of films from other commercial milk Proteins.
