	abstract = {The influence of season on the composition of milk from  approximately 200 Beta-lactoglobulin (B-LG) AA and 200 B-lactoglobulin  BB phenotype cows was determined for the 1992/93 and 1993/94 seasons.   Marked seasonal fluctuations were observed in all components measured:  protein, casein, whey protein, ash, lactose, alpha-lactalbumin, B-LG, alpha/s-  casein, Beta-casein, k-casein (k-CN), bovine serum albumin, calcium,  magnesium, sodium, potassium, chloride, and phosphate. Significant  differences in composition were observed between the AA and BB  phenotype milks, with the Beta-LG BB phenotype milk containing more total  protein, casein, fat, and total solids, whereas the Beta-LG AA phenotype  milk contained more whey protein, Beta-LG, and had a higher ratio of Beta-  LG to k-CN. Such differences in composition could have a marked effect on  the physicochemical characteristics of these milks. The higher concentration  of casein found in the Betal-lactogloblin BB type milk should make this milk   type more suitable for the manufacture of cheese and casein.   },
