Different protein aggregates including beta-lactoglobulin (beta lg) were detected in the pH 4.6 insoluble fraction recovered from actual heat-treated milk samples by gel electrophoresis and immunoblotting. A competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using anti-beta lg polyclonal antibodies was developed to analyze the beta lg partition in the protein fractions obtained upon acidification of both milk and Mozzarella cheese at pH 4.6. According to ELISA determinations, nearly 90% of the pH 4.6 soluble beta lg included in raw milk was found in the pH 4.6 insoluble fraction of ultrahigh temperature (UHT)-treated milk. As concerns Mozzarella cheese analysis, ELISA results indicated that about 36% of the total beta lg milk content was transferred from pasteurized milk to Mozzarella cheese, whereas less than 0.5% was transferred from raw milk. The pH 4.6 insoluble beta lg proved to be a suitable indicator of the intensity of the heat treatment applied to milk. The ELISA-based detection of this parameter was suggested for quality control of both drinking milk and raw milk cheese.
