Possible Interaction: Caseins and Glucose

“In the early stages of the reaction of casein with glucose at 37° C and 69% R.H. approximately one molecule of water was liberated for each molecule of glucose reacting, the ratio subsequently rising to 1.28 after 30 days and 1.5 after 80 days.”

“Abstract The nutritive value of casein for young rats was greatly reduced by storage in the presence of glucose at 70% relative humidity and 37°C for 30 days.”

“Infusion of casein and glucose together further increased milk protein yield in an additive fashion, and 47% of the infused casein was recovered in milk protein.”

“Providing additional casein increased the ruminal concentration of NH(3), but the increase was less when glucose was supplemented (casein × glucose; P < 0.01).”

“Increasing casein decreased (P < 0.02) ruminal pH. Infusing VFA decreased pH only during infusions, whereas glucose decreased pH 2 h after dosing.”

“A combination of glucose and casein without oil, vitamin, or fiber caused a significant phase advance.”

“Based on the partly additive increases in milk production parameters and changes in plasma metabolites, it is suggested that glucose alone increased milk protein yield by sparing AA from hepatic utilization, while casein increased both supply of AA and glucose.”

“Mammary plasma flow was at highest on the control diet, but reduced owing to infused nutrients, the reduction being less with combined rather than separate infusions of casein and glucose.”

“Postprandial serum concentrations of insulin and glucose were temporarily increased in pigs fed casein , whereas those of triglycerides were decreased.”

“The addition of glucose and casein shows greater effect as respects the Maillard-reaction on tinned model than on minced liver.”

“Mean flux rate of glucose increased with each increment of casein.”
