“…Simulated milk ultrafiltrate (SMUF), which was first described by Jenness and Koops (1962), is a solution that mimics the ion composition of milk ultrafiltrate. It is the most widely used simplified milk system in milk mineral deposition studies (Andritsos, Yiantsios, & Karabelas, 2002;Rosmaninho & Melo, 2006;Spanos, Patis, Kanellopoulou, Andritsos, & Koutsoukos, 2007). It can also be used as a buffer solution for dispersion of milk proteins or for studying physico-chemical properties of milk proteins, such as heat stability, electrophoretic and ultracentrifugal analyses (Jenness & Koops, 1962).…”
