RESUMEN
The aim was to develop a reliable rapid reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) method to simultaneously determine the main bovine milk protein fractions, including their genetic variants. Compared to the previous studies, our method is able to separate the main protein fractions within 20 min of total run time. The method validation consisted of testing repeatability, reproducibility linearity, repeatability, and accuracy. The procedure was developed using raw individual, bulk, and commercially available heat-treated cow milk samples. The RSD of peak areas ranged from 1.43 to 3.16% within analytical day and from 3.29 to 6.70% across analytical days. The method can be applied to investigate both raw and heat-treated milk samples.
