AI Article Synopsis

  • Researchers explored using NIR spectroscopy and multivariate analysis to identify and measure goat milk adulteration in camel milk from Oman.
  • The study utilized various multivariate methods like PCA, PLS-DA, and PLS regression to analyze the NIR spectral data, achieving a high R-square value of 0.974 for distinguishing pure from adulterated samples.
  • The PLS regression model effectively quantified adulteration levels, showing a low detection limit of 0.5% and making the method reliable and sensitive for quality control.

Article Abstract

New NIR spectroscopy combined with multivariate analysis for detection and quantification of camel milk adulteration with goat milk was investigated. Camel milk samples were collected from Aldhahira and Sharqia regions of Sultanate of Oman and were measured using NIR spectroscopy in absorption mode in the wavelength range from 700 to 2500nm, at 2cm resolution and using a 0.2mm path length CaF sealed cell. The multivariate methods like PCA, PLS-DA and PLS regression were used for interpretation of NIR spectral data. PLS-DA was used to detect the discrimination between the pure and adulterated milk samples. For PLSDA model the R-square value obtained was 0.974 with 0.08 RMSE. Furthermore, PLS regression model was used to quantify the levels of adulteration from, 0%, 2%, 5%, 10%, 15% and 20%. The PLS model showed the RMSEC=1.10% with R=94%. This method is simple, reproducible, having excellent sensitivity. The limit of detection was found 0.5%, while the limit of quantification was 2%.

Background: Equine milk, including its whey proteins, is a source of nutrients and functional components in the human diet, and is especially beneficial for people with weakened immune systems, newborns, and athletes. Objectives Whey proteins in equine milk constitute approximately 20% of the total protein content and include various fractions such as albumin, globulin, and lactoferrin. Lactoferrin is one of the most extensively studied whey proteins in equine milk.

The Dromedary camel has a remarkable history amongst cultures across Asia and northern Africa, serving multiple purposes ranging from providing milk, textiles, racing, and acting as pack animals. Recent genetic studies have revealed that many dromedaries are genetically homogenous, indicating that they do not represent different breeds, advocating for camel 'type' over camel 'breed'. In this study, we leveraged whole genome sequencing (WGS) to sequence 15 Jordanian Alia camels for the first time, alongside 9 Jordanian mixed camels from diverse locations within the country.

Nanobody-based indirect competitive ELISA for the detection of aflatoxin M1 in dairy products.

Sci Rep

January 2025

Key Laboratory of Dairy Biotechnology and Engineering, Ministry of Education, College of Food Science and Engineering, Inner Mongolia Agricultural University, Hohhot, 010018, China.

Aflatoxin M1 (AFM1) is known to be carcinogenic, mutagenic, and teratogenic and poses a serious threat to food safety and human health, which makes its surveillance critical. In this study, an indirect competitive ELISA (icELISA) based on a nanobody (Nb M4) was developed for the sensitive and rapid detection of AFM1 in dairy products. In our previous work, Nb M4 was screened from a Bactrian-camel-immunized phage-displayed library.

Background: The effects of camel milk in inflammation and systemic oxidative stress of cigarette smoke (CS)-induced chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) associated with small airway inflammation in rats were investigated.

Methods: 35 male Wistar rats were randomly divided into five groups: (a) control, (b) CS-exposed rats, c and (d) CS-exposed rats treated with the 4 and 8 mL/kg camel milk, and (e) CS-exposed rats treated with 1 mg/kg dexamethasone.

Results: Total and differential WBC counts, serum level of TNF- and malondialdehyde (MDA) level in serum and homogenized tissues of the heart, kidney, liver, and testicle were significantly increased, but catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and thiol levels were significantly decreased in CS-exposed rats ( < 0.
