Summary
Milk microfiltration separates casein micelles and serum proteins for cheese and nutritional concentrates. This study provides data on these dairy protein fractions and their processing.
Area of Science:
- Dairy Science
- Food Technology
- Biotechnology
Background:
- Milk microfiltration is crucial for separating dairy proteins.
- Crossflow microfiltration (0.1 µm) fractionates casein micelles and serum proteins.
- These fractions have distinct applications in the food industry.
Purpose of the Study:
- To present data from milk microfiltration experiments.
- To detail the properties of fractionated dairy proteins.
- To make experimental data accessible for further research.
Main Methods:
- Crossflow microfiltration of skimmed milk using 0.1 µm membranes.
- Characterization of retentate (casein micelles) and permeate (serum proteins).
- Data annotation from scientific literature and structuring using an ontology.
Main Results:
- Successfully fractionated casein micelles and serum proteins.
- Retentate is suitable for cheese making, permeate for nutritional concentrates.
- Generated a structured dataset of milk microfiltration experiments and protein properties.
Conclusions:
- Milk microfiltration is an effective technique for dairy protein fractionation.
- The data presented supports the development of specialized dairy ingredients.
- Accessible data facilitates further research and innovation in dairy processing.

Filtration is a physical separation process that involves passing a suspension through a porous medium to separate solids from fluids. During filtration, solids collect on the porous medium while liquids, also collectively known as the filtrate, pass through. The filtration medium is selected based on the filtration purpose, quantity, and nature of the precipitate. The general criteria for a suitable filtering medium are that it is inert, mechanically strong, nonabsorbent toward dissolved...

The function of the kidneys is to filter, reabsorb, secrete, and excrete. Every day the kidneys filter nearly 180 liters of blood, initially removing water and solutes but ultimately returning nearly all filtrates into circulation with the help of osmoregulatory hormones. This process removes wastes and toxins but is also crucial to maintain water and electrolyte levels. Most of these functions are performed by the tiny but numerous nephrons contained within the kidneys.
