Article Abstract
The application of spectroscopic techniques can help in alleviating problems encountered during the processing of milk and dairy products. Indeed, traditional analytical methods (e.g., physicochemical measurements, sensory, chromatography) are relatively expensive, time-consuming, and require chemicals and sophisticated analytical equipment, and skilled operators. Hence, there is a need to develop faster and less costly methods for accurately monitoring changes in the quality of milk and other dairy products during processing and storage.Many nondestructive and noninvasive instrumental techniques are available for inline and online monitoring of food. These include fluorescence spectroscopy, mid-infrared (MIR), near-infrared (NIR), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), etc. These techniques are usually used in combination with chemometric tools a to explore the information present in spectral data.This review article will discuss the potential of the above-mentioned spectroscopic techniques for monitoring chemical modifications of dairy products and the prediction of their functional properties during processing. The advantages and disadvantages of each technique are also discussed in this review. Finally, some conclusions are drawn, and the future trends of these methods are presented.

Residual nitrite and nitrate in processed meats and meat analogues in the United States.

Department of Animal & Dairy Sciences, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Madison, WI, 53706, USA.
Residual nitrite (NO) and nitrate (NO) have been widely studied in the past few decades for their function to improve processed meat quality and their impact on human health. In this study we examined how the residual nitrite and nitrate (NO) content of major classes of processed meats products (n = 1132) produced locally from three regions (East Coast, Midwest and West Coast) and plant protein-based meat analogues (n = 53) available at retail in the United States was influenced by their composition, processing, and geographical attributes. We also conducted time-dependent depletion studies and observed different patterns of NO depletion and conversion during processing and storage and correlated them with product quality.

A label-free, flexible, and disposable aptasensor was designed for the rapid on-site detection of vancomycin (VAN) levels. The electrochemical sensor was based on lab-printed carbon electrodes (C-PE) enriched with cauliflower-shaped gold nanostructures (AuNSs), on which VAN-specific aptamers were immobilized as biorecognition elements and short-chain thiols as blocking agents. The AuNSs, characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM), enhanced the electrochemical properties of the platform and the aptamer immobilization active sites.

Background: Human milk banks (HMBs) offer the best feed for neonates after mother's own milk (MOM), especially when MOM is insufficient. Although HMBs are founded on standard protocols, contamination and wastage of milk due to positive milk cultures remain a problem. Present study was planned as a quality improvement (QI) initiative to reduce culture rates at the HMB.

Background: Oral cancer is a common head and neck cancer malignancy that seriously affects patients' quality of life and increases the health care burden. Moreover, there is a lack of comprehensive reviews of previous research on factors associated with oral cancer. The aim of the current umbrella review was to provide a comprehensive and systematic summary of relevant studies, to grade the quality of evidence of relevant studies, and to provide guidance for the prevention of oral cancer.

Perfluorocarboxylic acids and perfluorosulfonic acids accumulate in food webs, thus posing a serious threat to food safety. The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) derived a tolerable weekly intake (TWI) of 4.4 ng/kg body weight for the sum of the four so-called EFSA-PFAS in 2020.
