Abstract
⺠We studied the binding of curcumin, a bioactive hydrophobic molecule, with casein micelles. ⺠Heating increases the binding of curcumin with the micelles. ⺠Heat induced aggregates affect the number of binding sites, but with low affinity, and less specificity. ⺠Curcumin penetrates the inner core of the casein micelles as shown by fluorescence quenching.
