In this work, a simple electrochemical sensing platform based on acid-treated Fe₃O₄@SiO₂ nanoparticles was successfully prepared for nitrite and sulfite detection. Fe₃O₄@SiO₂ nanoparticles were synthesized through the sol-gel and hydrothermal methods. Fe₃O₄@SiO₂ presented positive charges after...

Milk oligosaccharides (MOs) exhibit significant variations in concentrations and patterns among different species. However, there is limited knowledge about milk oligosaccharides in domestic animals and the impact of heat treatment on them. Here, we developed an LC-ESI-MS/MS method to analyze 11 ...

Two carbon dots (CDs) (λ_Em = 525 nm, G-CDs and λ_Em = 640 nm, R-CDs) were synthesized from citric acid and urea. The bovine serum albumin (BSA) responsiveness of the R-CDs was used to develop a "fluorescence-wavelength" label-free point of care testing (POCT) for the detection of the milk quality...

The very first time, whey protein from the Himalayan goat breed "Gaddi" was hydrolyzed with alcalase, flavourzyme, and a combination of both in this study. The degree of hydrolysis (DH) ranged from 28 to 53%, with sequential hydrolysis by combination achieving the highest DH. The sequential...

The ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS) method was built to quantify the casein glycomacropeptide (CGMP) in bovine dairy products accurately based on targeted proteomics. Qualitative analysis of theoretical peptides was carried out using high-resolution...

Few studies investigated the effects of co-fermentation with bifidobacteria on post-storage changes of probiotic fermented beverages (PFBs). Thus, this study compared the post-storage changes in physicochemical index and metabolomes of PFBs produced singly by Lacticaseibacillus paracasei PC-01...

Quinolones are potent antibacterial drugs extensively utilized for treating bacterial infections in poultry. However, the presence of quinolone antibiotic residues in milk is a matter of concern due to potential health risks and adverse effects on milk quality. This review provides an overview of...

Milk has a high nutritional value. However, milk is easily contaminated in the production, processing, and storage processes, which harms consumers' health. Therefore, the harmful substances' detection in milk is important. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have proven high potential in food safety...

Listeria monocytogenes causes foodborne listeriosis, which is an important food safety and public health problem. Monitoring them in the food chain using simple and affordable methods is of paramount importance to avoid untoward consequences. In this study, we have developed and evaluated a novel...

Structuring water-in-oil (W/O) emulsions with cocoa butter represents an alternative to incorporating fruit juices in chocolate pastes, reducing the lipid content of formulations. This work studied the effect of sucrose, fructose, glucose, and citric acid as main components of concentrated passion...
