Milks are dairy products that consists of high nutritional value which is good for health and provides energy to the body. Besides, milk also is believed to have antioxidant properties which helps to reduce the oxidative stress that may cause many diseases. Generally, cow milks are the most popular amongst all the dairy products as it is affordable and easy to find. However, dairy products that are originated from cow contains protein that can induce allergen reactions to some people. Thus, there is milk produced from the plant-based which is soybean that can be used to replace cow milk as it is believed to have similar nutritional value to cow milk. Therefore, to prove its similarity, an identification of antioxidant compounds was performed on soybean milk and cow milk extract using Attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy. The extraction was done by using liquid-liquid extraction method and the excess solvent was removed by using rotary evaporator machine. As a result, soybean milk has been identified to have the similar antioxidant compounds to cow milk. It can be proven with the presence of functional group that are similar to tryptophan and tyrosine which are both existed in cow milk. Hence, this research is essential for community as it contribute maximum benefit for better healthcare.

Rest and nutrition between workouts is a very influential and important part of an athlete's life. This time should be spent correctly, bringing the maximum benefit to the organism, after all efficiency of the next physical activities depends on rest. Proper nutrition is a premature and indispensable contribution to the success of heavy sports. No matter how intense and long the classes in the gym, they will not bring the desired effect without the right diet. It is very difficult for a modern person to calculate his food down to the smallest detail, count every calorie and avoid fast harmful snacks. But there are immutable rules - the principles of proper sports diet. If they are successfully implemented, then it will be possible to switch to special programs. So, the most important rule - That is, you need time! Every novice athlete should remember that when doing bodybuilding, all food should be divided into special segments - meals every three hours, after which you need to eat. You need to eat at least 5-6 times a day. For example, a butter bun and a glass of protein can be considered a meal. Distribute the number of calories consumed evenly throughout the training day. At the same time, you should not try to adhere to a strict calorie intake. Abrupt jumps and failures in your diet will only hinder the growth of muscle mass. When doing sports, breakfast comes first, because during this time you have to consume a significant amount of calories. The appropriate number of calories is recommended to consume after exercise, when the body requires large amounts of nutrients and trace elements. The first and fifth meals with a balanced diet are the most important periods. When eating out, make sure you have enough first-class protein in your diet to digest amino acids. Doctors recommend eating chicken, eggs, beef, all kinds of protein shakes and other dairy products.

The article contains information on the state of the processes of lipid peroxidation (LPO) in fresh cows under the influence of stress reaction caused by labor and the beginning of the lactation period. To reduce oxidative stress in the body of fresh cows, antioxidants were used in the form of preparations “E-selenium” and “Butofan”. The aim of the research was to determine the effect of vitamin-containing preparations “E-selenium” and “Butofan” on the productivity of fresh cows, the quality of milk and butter, made from it. The studies were carried out during the winter-stall period on one of the farms of Ryazan district of Ryazan region and involved 12 fresh black-and-white cows aged 4 years. The control group of animals was intact. As a result of the investigations, it was found that due to the action of the above preparations, which have antioxidant properties, the productivity parameters in the experimental groups of animals were higher compared to the control group, because they had an inhibiting effect on lipid peroxidation processes in the organism and activated the work of its own antioxidant system.

The current research described the effect of neurotropic and metabolic non-hormonal biologically active medicine Nanovulin-VRKh © on the milk yield amount and the milk quality. Two cow groups were under study: the experimental and the control groups, each including four cows. The results showed that two of the neurotropic and metabolic Nanovulin-VRKh injections made 12 and 24 hours after the insemination did not effect the body thermoregulation of cows. Administration of the Nanovulin-VRKh contributes to stable fat formation in cow milk. Increased content of protein, nonfat milk solids, stable fat formation in milk were due to Nanovulin-VRKh administration. It was also established that, in the milk of experimental animals were administered the Nanovulin-VRKh, the pronounced effect of the drug on the protein, fat and nonfat milk solids content was observed, and the prolonged effect on these indices was reported during the fourth milking. Introduction of Cuprum aqua-chelate into the drug did not has toxic effect on the animal body and therefore would not effect the human health through the dairy products.

Kappa-casein as a mammalian milk protein is involved in a several important physiological processes and it’s about 80% of the total protein in cow milk. This study aimed at genotyping bovine Kappa casein (CSN3) in two indigenous Nigerian cattle populations and to determine the frequency distribution of Kappa casein variants as detected across the animals examined and their association with the body measurement. DNA was extracted from 100 blood samples of 50 White Fulani and 50 N’dama cattle for identification and genotyping of kappa-casein gene by polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) test using HindIII restriction endonucleases. The PCR products of the specific primer K-F and K-R for the two cattle breeds give 530bp specific band. Digestion of 530bp amplified products of White Fulani and N’dama by restriction endonuclease HindIII generated three fragments of 530-, 370- and 160- bp each for the two breeds. Results of the cuts with this enzyme show the presence of genotypes AA, AB and BB in the samples. These findings suggest that BB genotype could be selected for increase body conformation and protein content of milk. Olanrewaju, B.

In this research work the concentration of zinc, copper, lead, chromium, cadmium, and nickel in cow milk samples obtained from four different grazing areas   (kakuri, kudendan, malali, kawo) of Kaduna metropolis. The samples were digested by wet digestion technique .The trace element were determined using bulk scientific model VPG 210 model  Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS).. The concentration of the determined heavy metal were The result revealed that Cr,  Ni and Cd were not detected in milk samples from Kawo, Malali  and Kudendan whereas lead (Pb) is detected in all samples and found to be above  the stipulated limits of recommended dietary allowance (NRC,1989) given as 0.02mg/day. Cu and Zn are essential elements needed by the body for proper metabolism and as such their deficiency or excess is very dangerous for human health. However, they were found in all samples and are within the recommended limits while Cd (2.13 – 3.15 mg/kg) in milk samples from Kakuri was found to be above such limit (0.5mg/day). Cow milk samples analyzed for heavy metals in this research work pose a threat of lead and cadmium toxicity due to their exposure to direct sources of air, water and plants in these grazing areas, thereby, resulting to a potential health risk to the consumers.

Background: Oxidation reactions are known to shorten the shelf life and cause damage to foods rich in fat, such as dairy products. One way to limit oxidation and increase the shelf life of fermented dairy products is to use natural antioxidants. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of adding pomegranate extracts in the antioxidant properties, rheological characteristics and the storage stability of the fermented product of kefir. Methods: The Pomegranate Juice (PGJ) and Peel Extracts (PGPE) (5%, 10% w/v) were added to kefir and the antioxidant properties were evaluated by using the methods of radical scavenging activity (DPPH) and Ferric Reducing Antioxidant Power Activity (FRAP). Spectrophotometric and instrumental methods were used to determine the Total Phenols (TPs), pH values, viscosity and flow behavioral index values of enriched with pomegranate kefir samples. The same properties were tested when kefir samples stored at 4°C for 7, 14, 21 and 28 days. Results: The addition of PGJ and PGPE results in an increase in the antioxidant activity (DPPH, FRAP) and total phenol content (TPs) of kefir samples. Increasing the concentration of the added PGJ and PGPE, results in an increase in the TP content and the DPPH activity of kefir. As far as the storage time is concerned, the results showed an increase in the amount of TP at 7th day and a reduction in the DPPH activity in the 14th day of storage. In contrary to the DPPH method, the increase in storage time has resulted in a reduction in antioxidant activity by the FRAP method. The addition of PGJ and PGPE in kefir results in a decrease in pH values while the pH of kefir samples increased during storage at 4°C for 28 days. The addition of PGJ and PGPE to kefir samples results to a decrease in viscosity and an increase in the flow behavior index. Increasing storage time results in increased flow behavior index of kefir samples. Conclusion: The addition of PGJ and PGPE increased the antioxidant activity and total phenols of the kefir product and preserved its properties during the total storage time of 28 days at 4°C.

The present study proposes microwave-assisted extraction as a sustainable technique for the biosynthesis of bioactive compounds from rice fermented with Aspergillus flavus (koji). First, fermentation conditions (i.e., pH from 3–12, five temperatures from 20–40 °C, and four culture-fermentation media viz. wheat, wheat bran, malt and rice) were optimized for producing microbial bioactive compounds. Microwave extraction was performed at 2450 MHz and 500 W for 20, 30, and 40 s with seven solvents (distilled water, ethyl acetate, hexane, ethanol, chloroform, diethyl ether, and methanol). The obtained results revealed that ethyl acetate is the most appropriate solvent for extraction. Effects of this ethyl acetate extract were compared with a commercial synthetic antioxidant. Antioxidant properties were enhanced by preventing the oxidation of the linoleic acid (C18H32O2) with an inhibition rate (antioxidant efficacy) of 73.13%. Notably, the ferrous ion binding ability was marginally lower when compared to the disodium salt of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA). Additionally, the obtained total content of phenolic compounds in the ethyl acetate extract of fermented rice (koji) by Aspergillus flavus was 232.11 mg based on gallic acid/mL. Antioxidant compounds in the ethyl acetate extract of fermented rice showed stability under neutral conditions, as well as at high temperatures reaching 185 °C during 2 h, but were unstable under acidic and alkaline conditions. The results demonstrate the efficacy of novel microwave-assisted extraction technique for accelerating antioxidant production during rice fermentation.

Pasta is one of the basic foods of the Mediterranean diet and for this reason it was chosen for this study to evaluate its antioxidant properties. Three types of pasta were selected: buckwheat, rye and egg pasta. Qualitative–quantitative characterization analyses were carried out by HPLC-DAD to identify antioxidant compounds. The data showed the presence of carotenoids such as lutein and polyphenols such as indoleacetic acid, (carotenoids from 0.08 to 0.16 mg/100 g, polyphenols from 3.7 to 7.4 mg/100 g). To assess the effect of the detected metabolites, in vitro experimentation was carried out on kidney cells models: HEK-293 and MDCK. Standards of β-carotene, indoleacetic acid and caffeic acid, hydroalcoholic and carotenoid-enriched extracts from samples of pasta were tested in presence of antioxidant agent to determine viability variations. β-carotene and indoleacetic acid standards exerted a protective effect on HEK-293 cells while no effect was detected on MDCK. The concentrations tested are likely in the range of those reached in body after the consumption of a standard pasta meal. Carotenoid-enriched extracts and hydroalcoholic extracts showed different effects, observing rescues for rye pasta hydroalcoholic extract and buckwheat pasta carotenoid-enriched extract, while egg pasta showed milder dose depending effects assuming pro-oxidant behavior at high concentrations. The preliminary results suggest behaviors to be traced back to the whole phytocomplexes respect to single molecules and need further investigations.

AbstractThe purpose of this study was to investigate the biological properties of an extract obtained from the waste of blueberry fruit. The study covered the optimization of extraction of antioxidants from blueberry pomace and the determination of antioxidant properties of the extract using HaCaT as the model organism. Research showed that the yield of antioxidants extraction from blueberry waste was dependent on the applied extraction conditions. Based on the mathematical models, the optimal conditions of extraction process in which the maximum quantity of antioxidant compounds is achieved from the waste mass unit, i.e., the relation of the waste mass to the volume of ethanol equal to 1:17.36, and process time equal to 1000 s. The obtained extract was characterized by high antioxidant activity, which was shaped by high content of polyphenols, mainly anthocyanins. Moreover, the extract showed a high ability to protect HaCaT cells from the occurrence of oxidative stress induced by H2O2. Cells treated with the extract and H2O2 generated a lower amount of ROS than cells treated with H2O2 only. The obtained results will be base of further studies on applying the extract in production of diet supplements and functional foods with increased antioxidant activity. Moreover, the main research material is blueberry pomace which is a troublesome waste material for juice producers. Consequently, according to a sustainable development idea, the study results will provide an opportunity to increase interest in the problem of rational use of the waste material to a certain extent.
