| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Casein micelle system is involved in the prevention of pathological calcification of mammary glands. |
| General description: | Casein is a major milk phospho-protein and constitutes about 80% of the total protein content in milk. Bovine milk is composed of four types of casein such as, αS1, αS2, β, and κ. Casein exists as micelles in milk. |
