    Using gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS), an indirect method was established for the simultaneous detection of 3-chloropropanol esters (3-MCPDE) and glycidyl esters (GE) in infant formula for special medical purposes. The conditions for sample extraction and transesterification/hydrolysis were optimized and stable isotope dilution was used to improve the accuracy and precision of the method. The results showed that the method exhibited good linearity in the range of 0.005–2.000 μg/mL (R2 ≥ 0.999), together with a limit of detection (LOD) of 5 μg/kg and a limit of quantification (LOQ) of 25 μg/kg (both calculated based on the corresponding amount of chloropropanol). The recoveries of the analytes spiked in infant formula for special medical purposes at 25, 125 and 250 μg/kg were 88.5%–104.1%, and the relative standard deviations (RSDs) for six replication determinations were less than 15% (n = 6). The levels of 3-MCPDE and GE in three types of commercial infant formula for special medical purposes were below the maximum limits set by the EU.

    In recent years, consumers have shown a rising demand for a healthy and nutritious diet, and cheese has become a new favorite of Chinese consumers because of its good nutritional and health-promoting characteristics. In 2005, the sales and import volume of cheese in China increased by 27.08% and 27.4% year-on-year compared with those in 2016, respectively. China’s cheese market size has maintained an upward trend. At present, the production of cheese in China is mainly concentrated in Xinjiang, Tibet and other ethnic minority areas, where different ethnic groups use sheep milk, yak milk or buffalo milk to produce cheese according to their own living habits and regional characteristics. However, the production of these ethnic cheeses have not been standardized and industrialized, resulting in high production cost. In addition, the quality is highly variable and the taste is generally poor. Therefore, improvements should be made according to the market demands.

    As a common probiotic, lactic acid bacteria must be able to withstand gastric acidity and intestinal bile salts and survive in the human body in large amounts. Nowadays, most studies concerning the mechanism of acid resistance of lactic acid bacteria are focused on the theory of proton pump and alkali production. In addition, the contents of exogenous substances such as glucose, amino acid and fatty acid have a certain effect on its tolerance. The mechanism of inhibition lactic acid bacteria under bile salt stress mainly involves bile salt hydrolase, stress protein and the self-protection ability of its cell membrane. This article reviews the existing literature on the mechanism of acid and bile salt resistance of lactic acid bacteria. The second aim of this review is to explore the factors affecting the acid and bile salt resistance of lactic acid bacteria.

    Comparison of in Vitro Carbohydrate Utilization by Lactobacilli and Bifidobacteria
    TIAN Lulu, HUA Xu, HAN Di
    Journal of Dairy Science and Technology    2022, 45 (1): 7-14.   DOI: 10.7506/rykxyjs1671-5187-20210913-010

    The growth of twelve Lactobacillus strains and six Bifidobacterium strains on a medium containing 13 carbohydrates including prebiotics (fructooligosaccharide (FOS), FOS (Vilof), xylooligosaccharide (XOS), galactooligosaccharide (GOS), short-chain inulin, long-chain inulin, isomalto oligosaccharide (IMO), stachyose, resistant dextrin, polydextrose, L-arabinose, lactitol, and erythritol) as sole carbon sources was compared using lactose as a control. Optical density at 600 nm (OD600 nm) and pH were recorded after 24 and 72 h of culture. Results showed great differences in the growth of strains on different carbohydrates. Resistant dextrin, polydextrose, and erythritol showed very limited growth promotion effects on all the strains after 24 h, probably because these strains lack the enzymes that hydrolyze glycosidic bonds. The growth promotion effects of FOS, XOS, GOS, inulin, stachyose, L-arabinose and lactitol were strain specific, presumably because of the different extracellular or intracellular enzymes secreted by each strain. Long-chain inulin slowed down the fermentation of Lactobacillus acidophilus, but was not applicable to the other strains. Despite being derived from the same source, the FOS from different manufactures showed different effects on the fermentation characteristics of strains, presumably because of the different contents of impurities they had. It was postulated that some prebiotics are beneficial to human health not by directly working on promoting the growth of lactobacilli or bifidobacteria in vivo; instead, they are degraded by other bacteria in the gut before being utilized by probiotic strains.

    In order to obtain more data on proteins in goat milk, cow milk and human milk, their basic components were determined, and bioinformatic analysis of their proteins was performed by proteomics. The results showed that the protein contents of goat milk and cow milk were higher than that of human milk, while the contents of fat and lactose were higher in human milk. A total of 3 370 proteins were identified in the three kinds of milk, and gene ontology (GO) analysis of these proteins indicated that they were mainly involved in biological processes such as cell process and metabolism process, and distributed in the cell, organelles and extracellular region. Their molecular functions included binding and catalytic activity. The KEGG pathway varied in the three kinds of milk and was enriched in protein processing in the endoplasmic reticulum. In the protein-protein interactions network, the 307 shared proteins participated in several pathways such as carbon metabolism, glycolysis/gluconeogenesis, and amino acid biosynthesis.

    Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) are a group of complex glycans occurring in human breast milk that play important roles in the growth and development of infants. More than 200 distinct kinds of HMOs have been identified so far. The naturally occurring mixtures of HMOs in humans have different components and profiles that reflect the mother’s genetic makeup (e.g., Lewis blood type), duration of lactation, life style, diet and geographic region. A number of functions that may protect the health of breast-fed infants have been reviewed for HMOs. However, available information on the content and profiles of HMOs in human milk, especially among Chinese mothers, is limited. Therefore, further research on the relationship between the structure and functions of HMOs and a databank of HMOs from Chinese mothers are needed in order to establish a firm scientific basis and specific guidelines for improved infant formula in the future.

    Lactic acid bacteria, a group of microorganisms that can ferment sugars into lactic acid, are widely used in the production of yogurt products. Different lactic acid bacteria exhibit different fermentation characteristics, which not only alter the physicochemical properties of yogurt but also have a significant impact on its nutritional value. This paper reviews the relationship between yoghurt products and microbial metabolism with a special focus on the role and influence of microorganisms in yoghurt making. The production of yogurt relies on the fermentation of specific microorganisms, such as lactic acid bacteria, which not only convert lactose to lactic acid, change the pH and texture of yogurt, but also synthesize a range of bioactive substances, such as vitamins, thereby having a positive impact on the health of consumers. This paper summarizes recent advances in understanding the fermentation mechanism of yoghurt, revealing the contribution of microbial diversity to product characteristics. In addition, this paper also discusses the health benefits of microbial metabolites in yogurt, including improving intestinal health and enhancing immunity. It is hoped that this review will provide a scientific basis and technical guidance for the research and development of yogurt products.

    The objective of this study was to determine the growth curves and antibacterial activity of two different strains of Lactobacillus salivarius. Streptococcus mutans, Porphyromonas gingivalis and Staphylococcus aureus were selected to perform antibacterial tests in vitro by the Oxford cup method. The results showed that the logarithmic growth phase of the two strains of Lactobacillus salivarius began respectively at 2 and 4 hours after inoculation and ended both at 8 hours, and the stationary phase began at 14 and 16 hours, respectively. It was proved that the bacteria cultures of both strains of Lactobacillus salivarius and their metabolites had antibacterial activity against Streptococcus mutans, Porphyromonas gingivalis and Staphylococcus aureus, and the antibacterial activity against Streptococcus mutans and Porphyromonas gingivalis was stronger than that against Staphylococcus aureus. Also, for both strains, neither bacterial sludge nor metabolite with an adjusted pH value (7.0) had antibacterial activity. Antibacterial activity of both strains of Lactobacillus salivarius came mainly from their metabolites, and it were acid or acid-dependent materials that play a key role in the antibacterial activity of metabolite.

    Pectin is a natural polysaccharide present in the cell wall of higher plants, which plays an important role in the textual and nutritional properties of fruit and vegetable-based products. There are two types of pectin: high methoxy pectin (HMP, with methoxy content ≥ 7%) and low methoxy pectin (LMP, with methoxy content < 7%). LMP has good stability, gelling and thickening properties, and is widely used in dairy products since it brings a special flavor to fermented milk and increases the viscosity and stability of the product. However, the yield of LMP is low due to the limitations of production and processing conditions. Therefore, the conversion of plant-derived HMP into LMP through de-esterification can meet the industrial demand for LMP. This review outlines the current status of the application of LMP in the dairy industry and its preparation methods including acid de-esterification, alkaline de-esterification, enzymatic de-esterification and amidation, and discusses the effects of these methods on the structure of pectin. Hopefully, this review will provide a theoretical basis for the industrial production and wide application of LMP.

    In order to prepare lyophilized cells of Bifidobacterium bifidum TMC3115 with high viability, the impact of the initial pH of the medium, different carbon and nitrogen sources, and inoculum quantity on the viable cell count was studied by the one-factor-at-a-time method. Subsequently, an orthogonal array design was applied to optimize combinations of carbon and nitrogen sources based on the pH of the medium at 16 h of culture, cell density (expressed as optical density) and viable cell count. The efficacy of 18 cryoprotectants on the probiotic strain was investigated, and the optimization of cryoprotectant blends was carried out using an orthogonal array design. The results showed that when the initial medium pH was 7.2 and the inoculum amount was 4%, the viable cell count reached the highest. The optimized medium was composed of glucose 25 g/L, tryptone 20 g/L, yeast peptone 10 g/L, yeast extract FM902 15 g/L, diammonium citrate 2 g/L, anhydrous sodium acetate 5 g/L, dipotassium phosphate 2 g/L, Tween-80 1 g/L, magnesium sulfate 0.58 g/L, manganese sulfate 0.25 g/L, and L-cysteine hydrochloride 0.5 g/L. The optimal cryoprotectant was composed of skim milk 12%, trehalose 12%, glycerol 1.2%, sodium glutamate 0.6%, and L-cysteine hydrochloride 0.15%. The viable cell count of the freeze-dried culture produced under the optimized conditions reached 4.26 × 1011 CFU/g.

    The monosaccharide composition and antioxidant activity of extracellular polysaccharides from Lactobacillus plantarum were analyzed. Crude polysaccharides were obtained from the fermentation broth of Lactobacillus plantarum by water extraction and alcohol precipitation and were fractionated into two fractions (DZ-1 and DZ-2) by DEAE-52 cellulose column chromatography. The monosaccharide components of DZ-1 and DZ-2 were analyzed by gas chromatography, and their antioxidant activity was tested using 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhy drazyl (DPPH), hydroxyl radical, and 2,2’-diazo bis-3-ethyl benzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS) cation radical scavenging assays. DZ-1 was a homopolysaccharide composed of only glucose units, while DZ-2 was a heteropolysaccharide composed of arabinose and galactose with a content ratio of 46.03:53.89. Both DZ-1 and DZ-2 had the ability to scavenge DPPH, hydroxyl and ABTS cation radicals.

    Journal of Dairy Science and Technology    2022, 45 (4): 1-6.   DOI: 10.7506/rykxyjs1671-5187-20220505-025
    Abstract191)   HTML10)    PDF (4672KB)(781)       Save
    Small molecule saponins are highly physiologically active and exert their biological effects only when interacting with biomolecules in the target cells in the human body. α-Lactalbumin (α-LA) is a globular protein that binds to hydrophobic ligands and has been used as a functional ingredient in the food industry. In this study, the interaction between two types of saponins (dammarane-type and oleanane-type) and α-LA was investigated using computer simulations, and their interaction patterns were imaged. The molecular docking results showed that each type of saponins binds to amino acid residues within the active pocket of α-LA via hydrophobic interactions and hydrogen bonding. However, dammarane-type saponins are more complex in structure, providing more binding sites, and they form hydrogen bonds via greater force.

    Abstract369)   HTML20)    PDF (1937KB)(763)       Save
    The effects of traditional high-temperature sterilization, direct steam infusion and membrane filtration combined with pasteurization on the quality of extended shelf-life (ESL) milk were compared by measuring microbial indexes, shelf life, percentage loss of lactoferrin (LF) and immunoglobulin G (IgG) and furosine content. The process parameters for steam immersion sterilization and membrane filtration combined with pasteurization were optimized. The results showed that compared with traditional high temperature sterilization, direct steam infusion (147 ℃/0.09 s) resulted in a longer shelf life, more stable quality and lower furosine content and retained lesser amounts of active substances. Membrane filtration combined with 72 ℃/15 s sterilization retained more active substances such as LF and IgG. However, this process has higher requirements for storage temperature. The storage temperature needs to be lower than 6 ℃ to ensure the stability of product quality.

    A small amount of bacterial spores with strong tolerance still exist in raw milk after sterilization and can multiply under certain conditions, causing a serious impact on product quality and consumer health. In this study, raw milk samples containing Bacillus were collected to isolate aerobic Bacillus and thermophilic aerobic Bacillus. The isolates obtained were identified based on their morphological, physiological, biochemical and molecular biological characteristics, and the heat resistance of the isolated thermophilic aerobic Bacillus was studied. Results showed that 10 strains of Bacillus were isolated from the milk samples, of which three were thermophilic aerobic Bacillus and seven were aerobic Bacillus. Among them, Bacillus coagulans and Bacillus clausii could tolerate heat treatment at 115 ℃ for 15 min. All Bacillus in raw milk could be killed by heat treatment at 121 ℃ for 20 min which decreased the number of spores by four orders of magnitude. The dominant Bacillus species in raw milk were Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus cereus, Bacillus pumilus, Bacillus licheniformis, Bacillus circulans, Bacillus gelatini, Bacillus amyloliquefaciens, Bacillus coagulans, and Bacillus clausii. Bacillus coagulans and Bacillus clausii had stronger heat resistance and could tolerate heat treatment at 115 ℃ for 15 min.

    Bovine milk is known as the “white blood” and is one of the most ideal natural foods, rich in protein, milk fat, calcium, vitamins and the eight essential amino acids, also known as a near-perfect food. However, in China, cow’s milk is mostly used for liquid milk processing, and its nutritional value has not been fully utilized. Casein gene polymorphisms are thought to affect milk yield, physicochemical properties and nutritional composition, dairy product manufacturing performance and nutrition, and hence have received much attention from scholars. In this paper, we summarize the existing studies on casein gene polymorphism, the methods used for its detection, and its application, hoping to provide some reference for the targeted breeding of dairy cows, the improvement of milk quality, and the precise development of functional dairy products.
