“…For instance, Italian Friesian cows, whose population corresponds to about 80% of dairy cows raised in Italy, produce milk with lower fat (−0.21 or −1.35 g/100 g) and casein (−0.27 or −0.38 g/100 g) contents than milks of Brown Swiss [ 4 , 5 ] or Jersey [ 3 ]. However, differences among breeds also include other specific properties such as the ratio among the casein fractions, genetic variants, level of post translational modifications and content of calcium phosphate [ 5 , 6 , 7 ]. All these “molecular” aspects influence the structural characteristics of the casein micelle, the aptitude of milk to rennet coagulation and the rheological properties of the resulting curd [ 8 , 9 , 10 ].…”
