Results From Four Particle Size Methods

Comparison of Results From Four Particle Size Methods. 

The most thorough study of the formation of artificial casein micelles is that of Schmidt and co-workers (1977 1979 Schmidt and Koops, 1977 Schmidt and Both, 1982 Schmidt and Poll, 1989), who not only studied the properties of the casein aggregates but also attempted to relate them to the solution conditions under which they were formed. In the precipitation of calcium phosphate from solution, the means by which solutions are mixed together is of crucial importance Schmidt et al. (1977) described a method in which four solutions were pumped simultaneously into a reaction vessel while keeping the pH constant. As a result of careful, slow mixing, the reproducibility of the size distributions of particles, measured by electron microscopy on freeze-fractured and freeze-etched specimens, was very good. In the first series of experiments, the objective was to produce milk like concentrations of the most important ions while...
