3. Enzymatic milk coagulation

3.1 Mechanisms of enzymatic coagulation

The fundamental mechanisms of enzymatic coagulation are not yet fully understood. Our knowledge has improved thanks to the development of new equipment (enabling us, for example, to integrate the measurement of gel firmness organization speed) and, in parallel, to the work carried out on the understanding of proteins and, more specifically, the casein micelle (compare, for example, Schmidt's structural representation of 1980 and Holt's in 2003). One of the latest models...
