The resolution was better than that obtained by conventional gel chromatography which resulted in separation into 2 components at best. Our results showed that the second and third components consisted of αs1- and κ-caseins and αs1- and β-caseins respectively. They are presumed to be submicellar fractions. Samples prepared by removal of Ca phosphate from large and small micelles were rich in the third and the second components respectively. It is suggested that casein micelles consist of αs1- and κ-casein complexes and complexes and polymers of αs1- and β-casein which are situated preferentially on the periphery and in the interior of the micelles respectively. aBulk milk aCasein1 aODAGIRI, S.1 aTAKAGI, T. tJournal of Dairy Researchgv. 50, n. 1, p. 37-44, Feb. 1983.
