Without his help, cooperation and. guidance, this Project wouldn’t have been what it evolved to be. Twould also like to extend my sincere gratitude to my parents and friends for supporting and encouraging me unconditionally throughout this project. The suggestions and criticism on the improvement of this project will be highly appreciated. EXTERNAL S SIGNATURE “7 To study the quantity of Casein present in different samples of milk. Milk is a complete diet as it contains proteins, carl ‘ bohydrates, fats, minerals, vitamins and water.

When coagulated with rennet, casein is sometimes called Paracasein. British terminology, on the other hand, uses the term caseinogen for the uncoagulated protein and casein for coagulated protein. As it exists in milk, it is a salt of calcium. acids and by rennet enzymes, a proteolytic enzyme typically obtained from the stomachs of calves. The enzyme trypsin 1 i 1 1 1 i i 1 i i Casein is not coagulated by heat.

Milk contains 3 to 4% casein suspended in water in the colloidal form. It is precipitated in a weakly acidic medium. Fu inne funnel stand, glass rod , filter paper, weight box , test tubes, pestle and mortar. (i) Different samples of milk. (ii) Saturated ammonium sulphate solution. (iii) 1 % acetic acid solution. Ww. 2 be: ‘ash the beaker ( 250 ml) with the distilled water and dry it >. Take 20 ml of buffalo’s milk in 250 ml beaker ani fin its weight 3. Add 20 mi saturated solution of ammonium sulphate slowly with stirring. Fat and casein will separate out as precipitate 4. Filter the above solution and transfer the precipitate in another beaker. 5. Treat the above precipitate with 30 ml distilled water. Casein dissolves forming milky solution whereas fat remains as such. 6. Warm the above contents of the beaker to 40 - 45°C ona low flame. Now, add 1% acetic acid solution drop wise with stirring when casein gets precipitated. 7. Filter the precipitated casein and wash with distilled water and dry it. 8. Find the weight of dry precipitate. g. Repeat the whole experiment with cow’s milk, goat’s milk and sheep’s milk. Volume of milk taken in each case =20 ml Weight of milk taken = W, g Weight of Casein isolated = w, g Percentage of casein = Weight of Casein x 100 Weight of milk milk taken | of milk | Casein (ml) | (Mg) (eg) 1.
