Chhana whey contains less protein than Cheddar cheese whey, acid casein and cottage cheese whey, and the protein composition is quite different. Electrophoretic methods demonstrated that most of the proteins in chhana whey were denatured, and there was considerable variation in the protein composition between samples of chhana whey and paneer whey obtained from different sources. The effect of storage temperature and time (up to 10 h at 40°C, 50°C, 60°C, 70°C and 80°C) on the quality of chhana whey was investigated. There were no significant changes in the pH and titratable acidity in any of these cases. Electrophoretic separation showed no qualitative changes in the protein composition pattern of chhana whey after up to 10 h of storage at 70°C.
