Fractional specificity of biological action and ability to form bioactive peptides, which have a positive effect on different physiological systems of the body in the processes of proteolysis and digestion, are characteristic for whey proteins. Prospects for the production and application of whey protein fractions are related to the necessity of their composition control. The comparative analysis of the electrophoretic systems previously used for the milk protein analysis was carried out for the creation of an express analysis method of whey protein fractions. These are the anode disc electrophoresis system in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate, the Davis disc electrophoresis system for acidic proteins in native conditions, the system in a homogeneous polyacrylamide gel with urea. The Davis disc electrophoresis system for acidic proteins was chosen as the basis. For the adaptation of this system to the requirements of express analysis, the stacking polyacrylamide gel was removed from its composition and the concentration of the separating gel was reduced. The difference in the composition of electrode buffer and gel buffer ions was used to provide the high separation efficiency of protein fractions. This allows saving the effect of protein concentration in the whey sample on the first stages of electrophoresis. The position of the basic whey protein fractions on electrophoregrams was established with the help of homogeneous marker proteins (β-lactoglobulin and whey albumin). Аn accessible electrophoresis system in the slabs of a homogeneous polyacrylamide gel for serial express analysis of the fractional composition of whey proteins has been proposed as a result of researches. The system allows reliable identification of four protein fractions (α-LA, β-LG, BSA and IG). Close average values and standard deviations of the content of these fractions in 15 whey samples of one milk batch, obtained by the densitometry of three electrophoregrams: β-LG (37.3±4.2, 36.5±2.8; 38.3±2.7), α-LA (15.8±1.5, 15.8±1.3, 16.4±1.1), BSA (8.2±1.1, 8.0±1.0, 9.4±1.1), IG (17.6±1.9, 17.4±1.5, 16.8±1.5) testify about good reproducibility of the method. The proposed method may be useful for the express identification of the basic whey protein fractions, which are precursors of biologically active peptides.
