We have investigated the structure of microgels formed during heating of demineralized β-lactoglobulin (βlg) solutions at pH 5.9 by small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) and light scattering. First, unheated βlg solutions were characterized at different pH values between 2.0 and 7.0. At pH 5.9, βlg solutions contain mainly dimers (with a radius of approx. 2 nm), which coexist with a small...

Covalently cross-linked whey protein microgels (WPM) were produced without the use of a chemical cross-linking agent. The hierarchical structure of WPM is formed by a complex interplay of heat denaturation, aggregation, electrostatic repulsion, and formation of disulfide bonds. Therefore, well-defined spherical particles with a diameter of several hundreds of nanometers and with relatively low...

We report on the conformation of heat-induced bovine β-lactoglobulin (βlg) aggregates prepared at different pH conditions, and their complexes with model anionic surfactants such as sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). The investigation was carried out by combining a wide range of techniques such as ultra small angle light scattering, static and dynamic light scattering, small angle neutron...
