Abstract:A low-density lipid fraction (LDLF) was recovered from Swiss cheese whey (SCW) residual lipids by highspeed centrifugation. The present study was conducted to determine the microstructural properties of the extremely smallsized milkfat globules (MFG) in LDLF by: (i) freeze-fracture transmission electron microscopy (FF-TEM) and (ii) thin-section TEM (TS-TEM). FF-TEM results revealed that MFG in LDLF were ≤1 µm in size and were embedded in what appeared to be a smooth, protein-like matrix. The MFG in FF-TEM spec… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
