A mass spectrometry approach to dairy science
Bovine milk is a source of an array of (un)known (bioactive) compounds from a variety of molecular and chemical classes. Because of a such complex food matrix, accurate and sensitive analytical approaches are needed to identify newly formed molecules (e.g. bioactive milk non-nutrients or xenobiotics), to recognize chemical and enzymatic modifications which known milk components undergo upon processing, storage and in vitro digestion. In this perspective, tailored sample preparation followed by liquid chromatography/high resolution mass spectrometry (LC/HR-MS) represents a powerful analytical tool to solve some scientific issues in dairy sector. In this presentation, some of the current applications of MS in dairy science will be discussed with special regard to characterization of novel functional/(bio)active milk compounds [1], reliable identification of dairy markers (e.g. studying post-translational modifications [2], proteolytic phenomena [3–6], identification of bioactive non-nutrients [7–9]), traceability and confirmation of authenticity [10] of dairy products.

Effetto della frequenza di mungitura sulla produzione di latte e formaggio
Frequenza (doppia o tripla) e sistema (convenzionale o robotizzato) di mungitura sono fattori di gestione aziendale potenzialmente in grado di influenzare la produzione di latte. Nella realtà produttiva, i formaggi ottenuti secondo questi differenti regimi di mungitura non evidenziano differenze significative in termini compositivi
Calcolo della resa di caseificazione a Grana Padano mediante una formula di previsione: applicazione in un caseificio di piccole dimensioni
Grana Padano yield obtained at a cheese factory was directly determined and calculated using a formula adopting two parameters: protein and fat content of the vat milk. Twenty cheese makings were controlled during the autumn-winter period. Actual and calculated yields showed exactly the same value (8.12 kg of cheese/100 kg vat milk)
Significance of furosine index in Taleggio cheese making
the furosine (FUr) level of taleggio
cheese was investigated with respect
to different cheese-making parameters
used in 11 factories. taleggio
made from raw milk according to traditional
cheese-making and submitted
to continuous-flow pasteurization (72°-
74°c/15 s) had a mean FUr level of
8.1 mg/100 g protein (n=6). this level
was mainly affected by the amount of
starter culture, composition of growth
medium and ripening time. When additional
batch heat treatment was applied to pasteurized milk, the corresponding
cheese showed a FUr value
about 2 mg/100 g protein higher. A further
significant increase was observed
in cheese samples manufactured from
milk heated by injecting steam through
a pipe (mean value 20.3 mg/100 g protein;
n=5). In these cases, the major effect
on the FUr level was exerted by
processing conditions used in batch
or steam heating of the milk. Analyses
of commercial taleggio cheese demonstrated
that 21 out of 22 samples had a
FUr value consistent with the cheesemaking
technology described in the
product specifications
