ok, thanks, that's an easy test and should work for some kind of gels. However, In case that the caseins-proteins form a gel, there would be rather a weak flocculating gel and we have only a very small amount of material. What I am looking for, is how to read flowcurves or frequency curves...
I have colloidal suspension consisting of a milk caseins (=mycells formed by several proteins). How can I use rheological experiments to determine if it can be described as a particulate suspension or a particulate gel? Since the volume fraction of the caseins is rather high, I expect in both...
