Description

Alina Bock and co-authors report a 2025 study of how plant compounds bind to milk protein parts under alkaline terms. Such binding is a common way to change how a protein works in food, and it can also arise in storage. High pH drives oxidation, firm binding, and chain growth, which shift both partners' traits.

The team paired set plant compounds with cut parts of the milk protein at a fixed high pH. Products were read with liquid sorting and mass tools. Forms with two hydroxyl groups reacted far more, making more chains and bound products, while single-group forms were held back by their shape.
