3. After denaturation, ß- LG may represent the ideal substrate for proteases (hydrolyze proteins), because ample regions are unfolded and accessible for the enzyme.

**Enzymatic Hydrolysis of β-Lactoglobulin (β-LG) in Whey Proteins**

**Substrate Characteristics:**
- After denaturation, β-LG, a whey protein, serves as a suitable substrate for proteases. The denatured form has unfolded regions, making them more accessible to enzymes.
- Enzymatic hydrolysis enhances digestibility, functionality, and reduces allergenic reactions in whey proteins.

**Research Findings:**
- The table below shows data from STĂNCIUC et al. (2008) on the kinetics of heat-induced hydrolysis of β-LG.

**Table: First Order Kinetics on β-LG Susceptibility to Enzymatic Hydrolysis**

| Temperature (°C) | k (min) |
|------------------|---------|
|                  | pH 7    | pH 7.5 |
| 65               | 0.084   | 0.017  |
| 70               | 0.119   | 0.077  |
| 75               | 0.138   | 0.170  |
| 80               | 0.190   | 0.296  |
| Ea (KJ/mol)      | 61.8    | 161.1  |

- **Explanation:**
  - *Temperature*: Indicates the heat applied during the process.
  - *k (min)*: Rate constant of hydrolysis at given temperatures and pH levels.
  - *Ea (KJ/mol)*: Activation energy required for the reaction at different pH levels.
  
**Optimal Conditions:**
- For higher hydrolysis of whey protein:
  - Use a pH of 7.0 at 80°C for 10 minutes.
  - Alternatively, use a pH of 7.5 at 70°C for 10 minutes.
