Article Abstract

The European reference method (ERM) recognises the fraudulent addition of bovine (B) milk in water buffalo (WB) milk/dairy products based on concomitant isoelectric focusing (IEF) detection of B γ- and γ-CN fragments after corresponding plasminolysis. We here used proteomics to characterise false positive results occurring in the ERM as being due to WB β-CN(f100-209), which is also formed after plasminolysis of genuine WB milk/dairy products and comigrates in IEF with B γ-CN. These ERM limitations were overcome by a dedicated proteomic procedure based on loading of B/WB milk/cheese CN extracts on a hydroxyapatite column, in situ trypsinolysis and elution of B β-CN(f1-25)4P and WB β-CN(f1-28)4P proteotypic peptides. Based on their similar ionisation properties and resolution in MALDI-TOF-MS, these phosphopeptides were identified as suitable markers for detection of B material in WB milk/dairy products to a detection limit of 0.8% v/v. This proteomic procedure is here proposed as integrative/alternative to the ERM.

The consumption of milk and derivatives is essential throughout life. Lactose plays a significant role due to its prebiotic effect, potential implications for the gut microbiota, and impact on bone and gastrointestinal health. Therefore, it should not be avoided unless a medical condition justifies it.

The S100B protein, known for its role in the central and enteric nervous systems, has recently been identified in dietary sources such as milk, dairy products, fruits, and vegetables. Given its potential interaction with the gut microbiota, this study explores the relationship between dietary intake of S100B and microbiota biodiversity across different diets. A comprehensive study was conducted, estimating S100B concentrations in 13 dietary patterns recommended in different countries.

To assess nutritional quality of foods promoted in Canadian grocery flyers including level of processing, and whether adherence to dietary guidance varied by year, region, store type (regular or discount), or location in the flyer. Observational study; national sample of weekly digitized flyers (n = 53 flyers; n = 8,790 promoted foods and beverages) were collected from Canada's largest market-share national grocer, from 2014, 2017, and 2021. Flyer food items were extracted and coded manually into food groups and categories.
