Abstract
⺠Complex formation was observed between norbixin (annatto) and dairy proteins. ⺠Norbixin had higher binding affinity with sodium caseinate than with WPI. ⺠The effects of pH on binding between norbixin and dairy proteins were not apparent. ⺠Binding affinity was the strongest for BSA-norbixin and kappa-casein-norbixin among whey proteins and caseins, respectively. ⺠Complexation by norbixin changed the conformation of dairy proteins, with varying extent and trend for each protein.
