Food-based components represent major sources of functional bioactive compounds. Milk is a rich source of multiple bioactive peptides that not only help to fulfill consumers ‘nutritional requirements but also play a significant role in preventing several health disorders. Understanding the chemical composition of milk and its products is critical for producing consistent and high-quality dairy products and functional dairy ingredients. Over the last two decades, peptides have gained significant attention by scientific evidence for its beneficial health impacts besides their established nutrient value. Increasing awareness of essential milk proteins has facilitated the development of novel milk protein products that are progressively required for nutritional benefits. The need to better understand the beneficial effects of milk-protein derived peptides has, therefore, led to the development of analytical approaches for the isolation, separation and identification of bioactive peptides in complex dairy products. Continuous emphasis is on the biological function and nutritional characteristics of milk constituents using several powerful techniques, namely omics, model cell lines, gut microbiome analysis and imaging techniques. This review briefly describes the state-of-the-art approach of peptidomics and lipidomics profiling approaches for the identification and detection of milk-derived bioactive peptides while taking into account recent progress in their analysis and emphasizing the difficulty of analysis of these functional and endogenous peptides.

To increase production efficiency of meat products, milk protein additives are often used. Despite a number of advantages, use of dairy ingredients involves a certain risk, namely the allergenic potential of milk proteins. A number of methods have been developed to detect milk-origin raw materials in foodstuffs, including immunological reference methods. This study presents newly developed immunohistochemical (IHC) methods for casein detection in meat products. Casein was successfully detected directly in meat products where sensitivity was determined at 1.21 and specificity at 0.28. The results obtained from the IHC were compared with the Enzyme-Linked Immuno Sorbent Assay (ELISA) and there was no statistically significant difference between the IHC and ELISA methods (p > 0.05). The correspondence between the methods was 72% in total. The highest correspondence was reached in frankfurters (90%), the lowest in canned pâté (44%).

Abstract Eighty late-lactation dairy cows were used to examine the effects of allocating a new strip of a perennial ryegrass-based sward in the morning (AM) or in the afternoon (PM) on milk fatty acid (FA) and protein profiles. Milk total polyunsaturated FA (PUFA) were greater from cows on AM herbage, whereas total saturated and monounsaturated FA (MUFA) were similar. Time of allocation only affected the milk protein α-casein, which was greater in milk from cows on PM herbage, in turn affecting the casein:whey ratio. Under the current conditions, timing of allocation altered the herbage nutrient supply to cows; a greater concentration of precursor FA in AM herbage resulted in a greater concentration of beneficial FA in milk compared with cows on PM herbage. Quantifying the composition of FA in herbage could potentially aid in the design of grazing strategies to increase precursors of beneficial FA in dairy products. Keywords: fatty acids, milk proteins, herbage composition, time of allocation

Milk has long been acknowledged as a source of macro- and micro nutrients. Presently, several identified biologically active substances from milk and their derivatives has attracted much attention from the scientific community. These bioactive compounds confer many health benefits that might support disease prevention. Worldwide, there is an increasing interest in the therapeutic potential of bioactive peptides which collectively present a cornucopia of bioactivities for utilization in humans. Bioactive peptides are hydrolysates with specific amino acid sequences that exert a positive physiological effect on the body. Most of the biological activities are encrypted within the primary sequence of the native protein and can be released during digestion by proteolytic enzymes in the gastrointestinal tract or during fermentation and food processing. Milk protein is an important source of bioactive peptides which may contribute to regulate the nervous, gastrointestinal, and cardiovascular systems as well as the immune system. Milk protein derived bioactive peptides are shown to have antihypertensive, antimicrobial, immunomodulatory, antioxidative and mineral-binding properties. Bioactive peptides derived from milk proteins are of particular interest to the food industry due to the potential functional and physiological roles that they exhibit.

AbstractMilk protein-derived peptides have been reported to have potential benefits for reducing the risk of type 2 diabetes. However, what the active components are and whether intact peptides exert this bioactivity has received little investigation in human subjects. Furthermore, potentially useful bioactive peptides can be limited by low bioavailability. Various peptides have been identified in the gastrointestinal tract and bloodstream after milk-protein ingestion, providing valuable insights into their potential bioavailability. However, these studies are currently limited and the structure and sequence of milk peptides exerting bioactivity for glycaemic management has received little investigation in human subjects. The present article reviews the bioavailability of milk protein-derived peptides in human studies to date, and examines the evidence on milk proteins and glycaemic management, including potential mechanisms of action. Areas in need of advancement are identified. Only by establishing the bioavailability of milk protein-derived peptides, the active components and the mechanistic pathways involved can the benefits of milk proteins for the prevention or management of type 2 diabetes be fully realised in future.

AbstractMilk is an important protein source in human diets, providing around 32 g protein/l (for bovine milk, which constitutes some 85% of global consumption). The most abundant milk proteins are α-lactalbumin, β-lactoglobulin, αs-casein, β-casein, and κ-casein. Besides their nutritional value, milk proteins play a crucial role in the processing properties of milk, such as solubility, water bonding, heat stability, renneting and foaming, among others. In addition, and most importantly for this review, these proteins are the main source of bioactive components in milk. Due to the wide range of proposed beneficial effects on human health, milk proteins are considered as potential ingredients for the production of health-promoting functional foods. However, most of the evidence for bioactive effects comes from in vitro studies, and there is a need for further research to fully evaluate the true potential of milk-derived bioactive factors. Animal genetics and animal nutrition play an important role in the relative proportions of milk proteins and could be used to manipulate the concentration of specific bioactive peptides in milk from ruminants. Unfortunately, only a few studies in the literature have focused on changes in milk bioactive peptides associated to animal genetics and animal nutrition. The knowledge described in the present review may set the basis for further research and for the development of new dairy products with healthy and beneficial properties for humans.

SummaryThe effects of the form in which amino acids are presented to the abomasum on the milk production of dairy cows receiving a basal diet of grass silage and a barley-based supplement were examined in two experiments. Effects of abomasal infusions of sodium caseinate were compared with the effects of corresponding levels of either an enzymic hydrolysate of casein (Expt 1) or a corresponding mixture of free amino acids (FAA; Expt 2). In Expt 1, although the yield of protein in milk increased progressively with each level of infusion, the yields of protein were greater for the caseinate than for the hydrolysate. Again, in Expt 2, for milk protein yield, sodium caseinate was superior to FAA at the lower level of infusion. In both experiments, the hydrolysate and FAA treatments were associated with higher concentrations of fat in the milk. There were indications of differences in the pattern of secretion of glucagon between the caseinate and FAA treatments. It is concluded that the differences between treatments relate either to the kinetics of absorption of amino acid residues or to the action of bioactive peptides released during digestion of casein.

Потребность в увеличении количества и качества производимой молочной продукции стимулирует исследования, направленные на повышение эффективности переработки молочного сырья, что, в свою очередь, невозможно без изучения технологических свойств молока и функционально необходимых ингредиентов, применяемых в производстве различной молочной продукции. На основе научно-технической информации международных и российских баз данных, систематизированной в рамках изучаемой тематики, представлен обзор научных работ о коагулянтах белков молока различного происхождения, применяемых при кислотной, кислотно-сычужной и сычужной коагуляции. Установлено, что в российской и международной производственной практике востребованы коагулянты животного, микробного и рекомбинантного происхождения. Наибольшим спросом среди коагулянтов животного происхождения пользуется химозин, получаемый из желудков телят. Ферменты микробного и рекомбинантного происхождения отличаются более стабильным качеством и низкой стоимостью, но их производство, основанное на методах генной инженерии, вызывающих предубеждение у большинства потребителей, практически полностью сосредоточено за рубежом. При условии повышения лояльности потребителей ферменты рекомбинантного происхождения могут стать наиболее перспективными функциональными ингредиентами. Исследования потенциала различных протеолитических ферментов растительного происхождения выявили невысокий технологический эффект их применения. Рассмотренный материал позволяет прогнозировать перспективность научных исследований по выявлению механизмов коагуляции молока и новых эффективных и универсальных коагулянтов совокупно с селекционной практикой отбора животных, направленной на улучшение технологических свойств молочного сырья. The need to increase the quantity and quality of dairy products encourages research aimed at improving the efficiency of processing dairy raw materials, which, in turn, is impossible without studying the technological properties of milk and functionally necessary ingredients used in the production of various dairy products. On the basis of scientific and technical information from international and Russian data bases, systematized within the framework of the subject under study, a review of scientific works on milk protein coagulants of various origins used in acid, acid-rennet and rennet coagulation is presented. It is established that coagulants of animal, microbial and recombinant origin are in demand in the Russian and international production practice. The greatest demand among coagulants of animal origin is chymosin, obtained from the stomachs of calves. Microbial and recombinant enzymes are characterized by more stable quality and lower cost, but their production, based on genetic engineering methods that cause prejudice among most consumers, is almost entirely concentrated abroad. If consumer loyalty is increased, recombinant enzymes may become the most promising functional ingredients. Studies of the potential of various proteolytic enzymes of plant origin revealed a low technological effect of their use. The considered material allows us to predict the prospects of scientific research to identify the mechanisms of milk coagulation and new effective and universal coagulants together with the breeding practice of animal selection, aimed at improving the technological properties of dairy raw materials.

Falling prices for cereals and beneficial effects on milk protein concentrations may promote greater inclusions of rapidly fermented ingredients in dairy rations. There is, however, a limit to the inclusion of these feeds into dairy rations beyond which performance declines due to sub-acidosis and related disorders. The feed compounder will need to be able to set limits on levels of feeding concentrates according to these risks. The objective of this experiment was to evaluate the effect of feeds of different acidogenicity (Wadhwa et al., 1998) on lactation performance of dairy cows offered diets based on grass- or maize-silage.Twelve multiparous Holstein-Friesian cows in the third month of lactation were used for this experiment. The experimental design involved adaptation and covariance recording on a standard diet (grass silage and 10 kg concentrates per day), followed by three 21-day experimental periods arranged as four 3x3 Latin Squares. The Latin Squares were constrained to a single forage to avoid difficulties in changeovers between grass silage and maize silage.
