Casein is a family of related phosphoproteins (αS1, aS2, β, κ) that are commonly found in mammalian milk, comprising about 80% of the proteins in cow's milk and between 20% and 60% of the proteins in human milk. Sheep and buffalo milk have a higher casein content than other types of milk with human milk having a particularly low casein content.
Casein has a wide variety of uses, from being a major component of cheese, to use as a food additive.The most common form of casein is sodium caseinate. In milk, casein undergoes phase separation to form colloidal casein micelles, a type of secreted biomolecular condensate.
Micelle caseine
As a food source, casein supplies amino acids, carbohydrates, and two essential elements, calcium and phosphorus
Casein contains a high number of proline amino acids which hinder the formation of common secondary structural motifs of proteins.
Uses
1-Paint
Casein paint is a fast-drying, water-soluble medium used by artists.
Casein paint has been used since ancient Egyptian times as a form of tempera paint, and was widely used by commercial illustrators as the material of choice until the late 1960s when, with the advent of acrylic paint, casein became less popular.
Casein is still widely used by scene painters, although acrylic has made inroads in that field as well.
2-Glue
Casein-based glues, formulated from casein, water, hydrated lime and sodium hydroxide were popular for woodworking, including for aircraft, as late as the de Havilland Albatross airliner in 1939.
Casein glue is also used in transformer manufacturing (specifically transformer board) due to its oil permeability. While largely replaced with synthetic resins, casein-based glues still have a use in certain niche applications, such as laminating fireproof doors and the labeling of bottles.
3-Food
Several foods, creamers, and toppings all contain a variety of caseinates. Sodium caseinate acts as a greater food additive for stabilizing processed foods, however companies could opt to use calcium caseinate to increase calcium content and decrease sodium levels in their products.
4-Plastics and fiber
Some of the earliest plastics were based on casein. In particular, galalith was well known for use in buttons. Fiber can be made from extruded casein. Lanital, a fabric made from casein fiber (known as Aralac in the United States), was particularly popular in Italy during the 1930s. Recent innovations such as QMILK are offering a more refined use of the fiber for modern fabrics.
5-Medical and dental uses
Casein-derived compounds are used in tooth remineralization products to stabilize amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) and release the ACP onto tooth surfaces, where it can facilitate remineralization.
Casein and gluten exclusion diets are sometimes used in alternative medicine for children with autism. As of 2015 the evidence that such diets have any impact on behavior or cognitive and social functioning in autistic children was limited and weak
6-Nanotechnological uses
Casein proteins have potential for use as nanomaterials due to their readily available source (milk) and their propensity to self-assemble into amyloid fibrils.
Casein, Bovine Milk, CAS 9000-71-9, is a high molecular weight phosphoprotein.
Chemical Properties
white to cream powder or granules
Uses
Casein from bovine milk is an Immunoglobulin E (IgE)-binding epitope belonging to the Casein phosphoprotein family.
Uses
Casein from bovine milk is an Immunoglobulin E (IgE)-binding epitope belonging to the Casein phosphoprotein family.
Casein has been studied as a generator of peptides responsible for biological activities such as opiate, immunostimulating, antibacterial, and peptidase inhibitors.
Uses
Casein is the principal milk protein which is prepared commercially from skim milk by the precipitation with lactic, hydrochloric, or sulfuric acid.
Casein can also be produced by the use of lactic acid-pro- ducing bacteria.
Caseins are usually identified according to the acid used, such as lactic acid casein, hydrochloric acid casein, and sulfuric acid casein. The principal form in which casein is used is casein salts, of which sodium and calcium caseinate are the most common.
rennet Casein is obtained from skim milk by the precipitation with a rennet-type enzyme.
Casein is used in the protein fortification of cereals and bread, and in fabricated cheeses.
Definition
A phosphoruscontaining protein that occurs in milk and cheese.
Casein is easily digested by young mammals and is their major source of protein and phosphorus.
Casein has been used in the manufacture of paper and buttons.
Definition
Casein: One of a group of phosphate-containing proteins (phosphoproteins)found in milk.
Caseins areeasily digested by the enzymes ofyoung mammals and represent amajor source of phosphorus.
Production Methods
Casein is a form of concentrated casein protein (one of the two major proteins found in milk) and is derived from skim milk. Depending on the method of manufacture.
Casein is classified as rennet casein or acid casein. In the production of rennet casein.
General Description
Casein from bovine milk is a phosphoprotein and forms three-dimensional colloidal supramolecular micelles. There are four main types of casein which make up approximately 80% of the total protein in bovine milk: α-s1 casein, α-s2 casein, β-casein, and κ-casein.
Casein is proposed to be the main protective constituent in milk. Casein is an amphiphilic protein.
Casein is A high molecular weight phosphoprotein used as a substrate for bromelain and other proteases.

Natural protein source, typically isolated from bovine milk.Casein is widely used as a food additive.
Casein is useful in tooth remineralization products to stabilize amorphous calcium phosphate.
Casein is also used as a type of organic adhesive and a binder for safety matches.
Casein supplies amino acids and carbohydrates and two inorganic elements such as calcium and phosphorus. Further, it is also used in the production of transformer board due to its oil permeability.
Casein (C18H14N2O3C) is a protein that is commonly found in mammalian milk, making up 80% of the proteins in cow’s milk and between 20% and 45% of the proteins in human milk. The main application of acid casein is being used as a food additive.
Food Uses:
Creamers
Cream Liqueurs
Processed / Analogue Cheeses

Casein Usage
1. Casein is used as a base material for coatings.
Casein has excellent water resistance and can be well dispersed in pigments to improve the uniformity of coatings.
2. Due to good fluidity, rennet 2 protein is mainly used to make plastic buttons.
3. Compared with other resin buttons, casein buttons have good dyeability, processability and various colors.
4. Casein mixed with slaked lime, sodium fluoride and copper sulfate to obtain casein glue used in the aviation industry and wood processing
