ABSTRACT
The physico-chemical and functional properties were examined for sodium caseinate, calcium caseinate and sodium-calcium caseinate of new kind obtained by extrusion-cooking. The
latter was found to be characterised by the most developed, porous microstructure and the
highest values for water solubility, fat absorption capacity, and ability to stabilise the
oil/water emulsion Calcium caseinate showed compact, packed microstructure and the lowest
values for water solubility, water and fat absorption, emulsification yield, and water solution
viscosity The microstructure of caseinates was found to be very important factor determining
the functional properties of caseinates.
