Use of various forms of chitosan to cost-ways of integrated waste disposal whey milk processing

In solution of serum proteins chitosan binds β-lactoglobulin and other proteins, forming an insoluble complex. It is shown that the main role in the formation of an insoluble complex of chitosan-proteins play electrostatic forces. Using different forms of chitosan: granular, spongy and its solutions in processing the whey allows to isolate about 90% of protein. The isolated protein can be used as an additive that improves the bioavailability of foodstuffs. Chitosan after regeneration can be reused in the reaction.
