In this study, the physicochemical properties of cheese whey protein isolate (WPI) were measured. The total amount of amino acids in WPI was 89.5% and the proportion of essential amino acids was 44.6%. Among these, leucine, lysine, isoleucine, and valine were shown in large amounts. At various pHs, the solubility of WPI (82-88%) was higher than that of sodium caseinate, (5-79%). The solubility of WPI was not affected by variation of pH. It was shown that the emulsifying capacity of WPI was higher than that of egg yolk by 1.6 times, but the stabilities of emulsions made with WPI and egg yolk was almost same each other at 65-97% and 60-89%, respectively. The foaming capacity of WPI was higher than that of egg white, at 323.3% and 186.6%, respectively, but the foam stability of WPI was similar to that of egg white.

Colostral whey prepared from colostrum (pooled from first six post-partum milkings) was heated for 10 min at $100^{\circ}C$ Heated colostral whey was incubated with 1% enzymes (protein equivalent basis) for 15, 30, 60, 90, and 120 min at $50^{\circ}C$. Papain, pepsin, trypsin, and alcalase produced different degrees of hydrolysis (DH), 10.66%, 12.42%, 10.83%, and 25.31%, respectively, at an incubation time of 120 min. The SDS-PAGE reveals that significant amounts of bovine serum albumin (BSA), ${\beta}$-lactoglobulin (${\beta}$-LG), and ${\alpha}$-lactalbumin (${\alpha}$-LA) survived papain digestion. In contrast, pepsin completely removed BSA but not ${\beta}$-LG present in heated colostral whey. Alcalase completely eliminated BSA, ${\beta}$-LG, and ${\alpha}$-LA. This differential hydrolysis was confirmed by reversed-phase HPLC analysis. Using ion-exchange chromatography, fraction-1 (F-1) was obtained from alcalase hydrolysate at a NaCl gradient concentration of 0.25 M. Reversed-phase HPLC chromatograms of alcalase F-1 showed numerous small peaks, which probably indicate that a variety of new peptides were produced. Iron content of alcalase F-1 was 28.94 ppm, which was the highest among all enzyme fractions, whereas iron content of colostral whey was 36.56 ppm. Main amino acids contained in alcalase F-1 were Thr (15.45%), Glu (14.12%), and Ser (10.39%). Therefore, alcalase can be used to generate good iron-binding peptides in heated colostral whey, and the resulting iron-binding peptides could be suitable as a value-added food ingredient for food supplements.

A substantial body of evidence has emerged over the last decade in support of the novel concept that dietary calcium and dairy foods play an important role in regulating energy metabolism and thereby promote healthy weight management and reduce obesity risk. This concept has been demonstrated in experimental animals studies, cross-sectional and prospective population studies and a number of randomized clinical trials. Notably, the effects of dairy foods in weight management are more consistent than the effects of supplemental calcium across clinical trials, and calcium per se is responsible for approximately 40-50% of the effects of dairy. The calcium component is only effective in individuals with chronically low calcium intake, as it serves to prevent the endocrine response to low calcium diets which otherwise favors adipocyte energy storage; calcium also serves to promote energy loss via formation of calcium soaps in the gastrointestinal tract and thereby reduce fat absorption. The calcium-independent anti-obesity bioactivity of dairy resides primarily in whey. The key components identified to date are leucine and bioactive peptides resulting from whey protein digestion. The high concentration of leucine in whey stimulates a repartitioning of dietary energy from adipose tissue to skeletal muscle where it provides the energy required for leucine-stimulated protein synthesis, resulting in increased loss of adipose tissue and preservation of skeletal muscle mass during weight loss. Finally, dairy rich diets suppress the oxidative and inflammatory responses to obesity and thereby attenuate the diabetes and cardiovascular disease risk associated with obesity.

One growth trial and one digestibility trial were conducted to evaluate the nutritional value of HP300, a commercially processed soybean meal product for weanling pigs. Dried whey, fish meal and/or full fat extruded soybeans (FFES) as well as portions of soybean meal (SBM) were replaced with HP300 in weanling pig diets. The objectives were to investigate the effects of HP300 on growth performance, digestibility, ileal amino acid digestibility and blood amino acid concentration in weanling pigs. One hundred and twenty crossbred $(Duroc{\times}Beijing\;Black{\times}Landrace)$ pigs weaned at 28 days of age were used in the growth trial. The pigs were randomly allocated to five treatments, with three pens per treatment and eight pigs per pen. The trial duration was 28 days. The control (CTRL) diet contained no HP300; in treatments 2, 3 and 4, dried whey and fish meal were replaced by 3.0%, 7.5% and 10.5% HP300; in treatment 5, full fat extruded soybeans were replaced by 10.5% HP300 plus soybean oil to attain the same metabolic energy content as FFES. Five T-cannulated barrows were used in a digestibility trial with a $5{\times}5$ Latin square design to determine nitrogen retention and amino acid ileal digestibility of HP300 used alone or mixed with other ingredients. The results indicated that replacement of dried whey, fish meal, full fat extruded soybeans and a part of the soybean meal with HP300 in piglet diets improved average daily gain and feed conversion ratio (p < 0.05). There was a trend toward improved DM, crude protein and amino acid ileal digestibilities and improved protein and amino acid ileal digestibilities and improved protein net availability with the use of HP300 in swine diets.

This study was performed to understand the behavior of protein mobility and intensity of enzymatic hydrolysis according to crosslinking of sodium caseinate, whey protein isolate, skim milk and whole milk powders with or without transglutaminase (TGase, w/w = 200 : 1) at $38^{\circ}C$. Whey protein was limited to crosslinking and skim milk was relatively more increased in high molecular polymer than whole milk. The degree of crosslinking decreased in the order of sodium caseinate>skim milk>whole milk>whey protein isolate. The SDS-PAGE results indicated that main bands of TGase treated samples had a high mobility and formed bands of molecular weights below 15 kDa by hydrolysis with pepsin after 10 min of reaction time. However, ${\beta}-lactoglobulin$ showed remarkable stability against pepsin hydrolysis treated with and without TGase. The high molecular polymers were easily hydrolyzed with digestive enzymes in vitro experiment. These results suggested that novel dairy products using TGase would have no special digestive problem in human body.

[Purpose] The composition of protein supplements, the consumption timing immediately before and after resistance exercise training (RET), and the quantity of protein supplementation may be important factors for the im-provement of muscle mass and function. Although these factors should be considered comprehensively for effective improvement of muscular function in protein supplementation, relatively few studies have focused on this area. Therefore, this study was designed to investigate whether a protein blend supplement before and after resistance exercise for 12 weeks would be effective in increasing muscular function. [Methods] In total, 18 participants were randomly assigned to a placebo (PLA) or protein blend supplement (PRO) group. All subjects followed the same training routine 3 times per week for 12 weeks, taking placebo or protein supplements immediately before and after each exercise session. The protein supplement consisted of 40 g of blend protein, including hydrolyzed whey protein. The RET consisted of lower body (barbell squat, dead lift, seated leg extension, and lying leg curl) and upper body (bench press, barbell rowing, preacher bench biceps curl, and dumbbell shoulder press) exercises. A repetition was defined as three sets of 10-12 times with 80% of one repetition maximum (1RM). [Results] Although the PRO group had a lower protein intake in terms of total food intake than the PLA group, the mean changes in muscle circumference, strength, and exercise volume increased, especially at week 12, compared to the PLA group. [Conclusion] These results suggest that the composition and timing of protein intake are more important than the total amount.

Milk fat globule membrane (MFGM) is a lipid carrier in mammals including humans that consists mainly of polar lipids, like phospholipids and glycolipids. In this study, a process to enrich polar lipids in commercial butter and whey powder, including polar lipids of MFGM, was developed. WPC (whey protein concentrate) 60 was selected as the most suitable raw material based on the yield, phospholipid, protein, and lactose content of the polar lipid fraction obtained by ethanol extraction of two WPC (WPC60 and WPC70) and two buttermilk (A and B). After fractionation under optimum conditions, the polar-lipid enriched fraction from WPC60 contained 38.56% phospholipids. The content of glycolipids, cerebroside, lactosylceramide, ganglioside GM3, ganglioside GD3, was 0.97%, 0.55%, 0.09%, and 0.14%, respectively. Rancimat results showed that the oxidation stability of fish oil increased with an increase in the polar-lipid fraction by more than 30 times. In addition, the secretion of IL-6 and TNF-α decreased in a concentration-dependent manner after treatment of RAW 264.7 cells with 0.1 to 100 ppm of the polar lipid fraction. In this study, polar lipid concentrates with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity, were prepared from milk processing by-products. The MFGM polar lipid concentrates made from by-products are not only additives for infants, but are also likely to be used as antioxidants in cooking oils and as active ingredients for functional foods.

As a way of improving the texture and flavor of soybean cheese, whey-say cheeses were made by coprecipitation of various mixtures of whey, whey powder, soy milk and soy protein powder, and mixed culture of str. lactis, str. cremoris and rennet were added, then the cheeses were cured at $15^{\circ}C$ for up to 10 weeks. Physicochemical characteristics of the cheese were investigated by analyzing pH, titratable acidity(TA), water soluble nitrogen, 10% TCA soluble nitrogen, amino acid composition, beany flavor, color and hardness. The pH of whey-soy cheeses during ripening changed from 5.3 to 4.2 after 5 or 6 weeks and maintained that value while that of soybean cheese maintained a higher pH value. TA of whey-soy milk cheeses was gradually increased to the value of 0.4-0.45 after 8 weeks, but that of soybean cheese reached only 0.2 after the same period. Water soluble and 10% TCA soluble-nitrogen increased steadily during ripening. Hardness of the whey-soy milk cheeses reached maximum after three weeks of ripening and greatest at those made from 3 : 1 mixture of whey and soy milk and that from soymilk. Color of the whey-soy milk chesses was lighter than that of soybean cheese. The bean flavor of soybean cheese was strong and persistent for the whole ripening period. Acid flavor was dominant in the whey-so milk cheese and masked the beany flavor partially.

To investigate effectors on the colloidal stability of whey and soybean proteins, characteristics of tofu-gel formation, effects of heat treatment and salt composition on the colloidal stability, and effects of heat treatment on storage stability were analyzed. When experimental tofus were made from the mixture of whey and soybean, the calcium in the whey precipitated the soy proteins, and disrupted the gel formation, which resulted in the curd of poor texture. In the heat treatment at $60{\sim}100^{\circ}C$, whey and the whey proteins dialyzed against distilled water were readily preciptated at over $70^{\circ}C$, but the mixture of whey and soy extract as well as soy extract were stable at the range of temperature. The proteins of soy extract, whey dialyzed against sodium phosphate buffer, and the mixture were stable at the same heat treatment, and this suggested that phosphates in the soy extract stabilize specialty the whey proteins. Soy proteins were easily destabilized by adding $CaCl_2(0.05{\sim}0.07M)$ at $80{\circ}C$ and $70{\sim}85%$ of the proteins in soy extract and the mixture were preciptated, while only $30{\sim}55%$ of the proteins in whey dialyzed against distilled water were destabilized at the same conditions. Storage stability at $4^{\circ}C$ of the mixture was increased when the mixture was treated at $63^{\circ}C$ and lower temperature.

Ginseng-whey beverages were prepared with rennet whey, ginseng, sweetener, honey and Japanese apricot, inoculated with different strains of lactic acid bacteria or unfermented partly. The samples were stored at 4$^{\circ}C$ or 30$\pm$1$0^{\circ}C$ and then physicochemical and microbiological properties were investigated. The yield of whey was 78.8%. The pH-values reduced and acidities increased during the storage period. The contents of solid-substances, ash and lipid in ginseng-whey beverages were 7.90~8.20%, 0.62~0.66% and 0.16%, respectively. The protein contents of ginseng-whey beverages were 0.42~0.56% and the contents were not changed during the storage period. The lactose contents of fermented beverages were higher than those of unfermented beverages. During the storage period (1~5 weeks), the ranges of D(-) - and L(+)- lactic acid contents in fermented ginseng-whey beverages (17.3~156.1 mg/100g, 347.3~1894.2mg/100g) were higher than those of unfermented ginseng-whey beverages (6.2~82.8mg/100g, 7.1~885.5mg/100g). The contents of total saponin in unfermented sample and fermented sample (Lac. casei sub-sp. casei+Str. salivarius sub-sp. thermophilus) were increased during the storage period. But, those of the fermented sample(Lac. acidophilus+Lac. delbrueckii sub-sp. bulgaricus) were reduced. In the electrophoretic results of ginseng-whey beverages, an $\alpha$-lactalbumin and a $\beta$-lactoglobulin bands were shown apparently and there were no changes observed during the storage period. During the storage period (1~3 week) the coliform was not detected and total plate counts and psychrotrophs were increased according to the storage period.
