Casein (CN), a major allergen for patients with persistent cow's milk (CM) allergy, comprises approximately 80% of CM proteins. 1 Bovine CN is constituted of four components, αs1-, αs2-, β-, and κ-CN, and exists as a micelle with a 30-300 nm diameter. 2 CN is an unfolded phosphoprotein and interacts with calcium phosphate in milk. 3 αs-CN is defined as an insoluble fraction in 0.4 mol/L calcium chloride, while κ-CN is the soluble fraction. β-CN is defined as soluble in 3.3 mol/L urea and insoluble in 1.7 mol/L urea.
