Summary

The variation in plasmin activity and proteose-peptone (PP) content in milks from 81 cows of four breeds was statistically analysed. Plasmin activity increased with parity and stage of lactation and differed between breeds, but the breed effect was removed when adjustment was made for differences in milk casein content. The negative correlation found between plasmin activity and casein content seemed to be expressed only under assay conditions and was thus probably an artefact. The linear regressions of proteose-peptones in fresh (PP) and cold-stored milks (ΔPP) on plasmin activity were highly significant (P < 0·001). However, the variation in plasmin activity explained only 38 and 33%, respectively, of the variation in PP and ΔPP. At apparent zero plasmin activity, PP and ΔPP were significantly different from zero (P < 0·001) and the intercepts represented 77 and 46%, respectively, of the averages. PP and ΔPP were significantly higher in milks containing the BB genotype of ²-lactoglobulin than in milks with the AA genotype.
