Water-soluble phosphopeptides from cheese were isolated using immobilized metal affinity chromatography (IMAC). Phosphopeptides from aqueous cheese extracts were completely retained on iminodiacetic acid (IDA) Sepharose equilibrated with FeCl3 and subsequently eluted with ammonium dihydrogen phosphate. Peptides in the eluate from the IMAC-Fe(III) column were identified using reversed phase liquid chromatography-electronic spray identification-tandem mass spectrometry. Phosphopeptides from two different cheeses were analyzed using the described method: a 10-month-old semihard Herrgard cheese made with mesophilic starter and a 24-month-old Parmigiano Reggiano cheese made with thermophilic starter. Elution of the IMAC-Fe(III) column with a gradient of ammonium dihydrogen phosphate resulted in three distinct peaks for Herrgard cheese corresponding to peptides carrying one, two, and four phosphorylated serine residues, respectively. Sixty-five different phosphopeptides were identified from the Herrgard, whereas only 9 from the Parmigiano Reggiano.

Introduction: This study aimed to assess and compare the efficacy of Nacre and casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP) on the remineralization of enamel using surface microhardness analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy.
Materials And Methods: Twenty human maxillary premolars extracted for orthodontic reasons were collected. Under cool water spray, the crowns were sectioned mesiodistally into buccal and palatal halves using a diamond disc.

Background: This study compared the ability of four remineralization agents to restore demineralised enamel lesions in permanent human incisors.
Methods: In total, 40 teeth were included in the study. Two samples were obtained from each tooth.

An easy synthetic strategy was developed to synthesize the phosphate-functionalized amino acid N-carboxyanhydride (NCA), using simple primary amine initiators to obtain homo and block phospho-polypeptides with controlled molecular weight and molecular weight distribution. The methodology was extended to the synthesis of the end-functionalized homo polypeptides (15 to 50 repeat unit) and block co-polypeptides with PEG (0.7 K, 2 K, and 5 K) and glycopolypeptide (15-unit mannose glycopolypeptide) as one of the blocks.

Objectives: To compare remineralization of enamel subsurface lesions by fluoride dentifrices with added calcium in a double-blind, randomized, cross-over, in situ study.
Methods: Human enamel with subsurface lesions were prepared and inserted into intra-oral appliances worn by volunteers. A slurry (1 g toothpaste/4 ml HO) was rinsed for 60 s, 4 times per day for 14 days.

We applied capillary electrophoresis, liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass-spectrometry (MS/MS), and ultra-performance liquid chromatography to determine the composition of water-insoluble and water-soluble proteinaceous fractions of the cheese and to study in detail the degradation of caseins during 8 mo of ripening of Estonian high-temperature cooked hard cheese Old Saare. The application of high-resolution and high-accuracy MS/MS enabled identification of more than 3,000 small peptides, representing a fairly full casein peptidome containing peptides of 4 to 25 AA in length: 1,049 from β-casein (CN), 944 from α-CN, 813 from α-CN, and 234 from κ-CN. The majority of β-CN- and α-CN-derived peptides originated from the N-terminal parts of the molecule, f6-93 and f1-124, respectively; peptides from α-CN arose predominantly from the C-terminal end f100-162.
