Abstract
The aim of this study was to introduce a simple method for isolation of α-lactalbumin, β-lactoglobulin and bovine serum albumin from cow’s milk, and peptides produced by enzymatic hydrolysis of α-lactalbumin, β-lactoglobulin and bovine serum albumin with alcalase. Whey protein were precipitated from whey by ammonium sulfate and, α-lactalbumin and β-lactoglobulin were isolated using Hi Prep 26/60 Sephacryl S-100 column gel filtration chromatography. Bovine serum albumin and β-lactoglobulin were isolated by Mono-Q 5/50 GL column anion exchange chromatography of the 50% Ammonium Sulfate-supernatant. Isolated whey proteins were hydrolyzed by proteolytic alcalase. Tricine SDS-PAGE and reverse-phase HPLC analyses revealed that almost hydrolyzed all the α-lactalbumin, β-lactoglobulin and bovine serum albumin with alcalase. Molecular weight of various peptides derived from alcalase hydrolysate were small molecular weight than 3.5 kDa.
