Effects of some production factors on the content of kappa-casein in the milk of cows from different herds in Risaralda (Colombia). Ces. Med. Vet. Zootec. [online]. 2016, vol.11, n.2, pp.42-50.

K-casein is one of the most important milk proteins by their relationship to traits associated with the cheese production. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the relationship between some production traits and kappa casein content in the milk of cows in eight herds from Pereira, Risaralda. 48 milk samples from cows were analysed for k-casein content by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in one dimension (SDS-PAGE Triazine) and were taken the effect of the breed, the supplementation, calving number, days in milk and milk yield. The information was evaluated using a generalized linear model using R software with agricolae and car libraries (R Core Team). The mean of k-casein was 3.55 g/L and the coefficient of variation was 19.3%, the coefficient of variation for milk production was 40.3%. The traits evaluated was only significant (p<0.05) the type of supplementation and. Was found, an inverse relation of k-casein with the number of calving, although it was not significant, this may be due to number of calving it is indicative of the age of the cow and the racial component of the generation.
