Summary: Pea protein was used to prepare Maillard reaction products through enzymatic hydrolysis and thermal reaction, resulting in significant saltiness improvement. Low-molecular-weight pea peptides had the strongest effect on saltiness and umami enhancement, with a more pronounced effect from MRPs derived from hexoses than pentoses. The increase in saltiness was most dominant at 1 hour of thermal reaction, while further heating led to a decrease in saltiness enhancement due to reaction of small tasty peptides. Kokumi attribute was mainly contributed by MRPs of small peptides.

Summary: The characteristics and functions of Maillard reaction products (MRPs) produced by the interaction of polydextrose (PD) and α-lactalbumin (a-LA) were evaluated. The results showed that as the reaction progressed, the absorbance and fluorescence intensity of heated a-LA-PD increased, while the amount of free amino groups decreased. Electrophoresis revealed changes in molecular mass and covalent cross-linking. The secondary structure of MRPs remained unchanged, but the tertiary structure gradually unfolded, exposing hydrophobic groups. Additionally, the radical-scavenging activity and antioxidant power of MRPs significantly increased.

Summary: In this study, casein was extracted and hydrolyzed, and then conjugated with gum Arabic through the Millard reaction. Increasing the degree of hydrolyzation and the ratio of casein to gum Arabic accelerated the reaction and resulted in higher molecular weight. The conjugated biopolymers showed improved functional properties but lower foam stability.

Summary: This study investigated the influence of lactose and lactulose on the functional and structural properties of glycated casein. The results showed that lactulose led to more severe changes in molecular weight, spatial structure, and tryptophan fluorescence intensity of casein compared to lactose. Lactulose also exhibited stronger glycation ability, resulting in lower solubility, surface hydrophobicity, digestibility, and emulsifying capacity of casein-glycoconjugates compared to lactose. These findings are important for understanding the effects of harmful Maillard reaction products on milk and dairy product quality.

Summary: Buffalo milk powder products have not been widely explored in terms of production and physicochemical characteristics. Raman spectroscopy combined with chemometrics is crucial for understanding the crystallization process of lactose in different environments. Hydrolyzed products exhibit poorer browning and rehydration rates compared to non-hydrolyzed products, but maltodextrin can help mitigate these issues.

Summary: The glycation of biomolecules is a major factor in diabetic nephropathy and end-stage kidney disease. Advances in noncoding RNA research, particularly the long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), have provided new insights into potential therapies for glycation-related conditions. However, there are still methodological constraints in the study of lncRNAs. This review discusses the role of lncRNAs in glycation and the possible use of lncRNA-based therapeutics.

Summary: Glycation is a reaction that leads to protein inactivation, but the enzyme hDJ-1 can reverse this process. The specificity of hDJ-1 is regulated by its active site residue Cys106, and structural analysis suggests a potential role of Glu18. Modifying Glu18 to Asp18 improves the substrate specificity of hDJ-1.

Summary: This study investigated the influence of b-casein polymorphism on cheese manufacturing and characteristics. The results showed that cheese made from A2A2 milk had poor rennet coagulation properties, while A1A1 cheese had lower protein content and A2A2 cheese had lower fat content. Furthermore, genotype impacted cheese texture, with A1A1 cheese being the softest and A2A2 cheese being the most fracturable.

Summary: Lighvan cheese made from different ratios of ovine and caprine milk (100:0, 75:25, 50:50, 25:75, 0:100) was analyzed during ripening to examine its chemical composition, proteolysis level, amino acid content, texture, and coagulant activity. The study found that using higher ratios of ovine milk led to decreased pH and moisture content, increased texture parameters, coagulant activity, soluble nitrogen fractions, fat, and protein contents in the cheese. Differences in gel electrophoresis and peptide profiles were observed. Leu and Phe were found to be the predominant free amino acids in the ripened cheese. In conclusion, lighvan cheese made with 75:25 and 50:50 ratios of ovine and caprine milk can be preferred due to their proper proteolysis indices and semi-hard texture.

Summary: The frequency and possible sources of non-starter lactic acid bacteria (NSLAB) and citrate fermenting bacteria (CFB) were evaluated at different stages of a milk supply chain. The study found a positive correlation between psychrotrophic bacteria and CFB, emphasizing the importance of good milking practices to control these bacteria. The results also showed that NSLAB and CFB populations remained high even after pasteurisation, suggesting the occurrence of post-heat treatment recontamination, biofilm formation, or the presence of thermoduric microbiota.

Summary: This article reviews the application of plant-based coagulants in food products as alternatives to animal and microbial coagulants. Plant-based coagulants can deliver similar milk-clotting activity and organoleptic properties as animal rennet, making them suitable for cheese production and offering potential health benefits. However, their high proteolytic activity may contribute to a bitter taste, which is influenced by plant sources.

Summary: Different animal milk sources have varied nutritional properties. Goat milk contains calcium, medium-chain fatty acids, and α-casein. Sheep milk is rich in vitamins A, C, thiamine, and folic acid. Buffalo milk is considered a complete food with higher levels of α- and k-casein. Mare and donkey milk are rich in carbohydrates and proteins with lower fat content. Camel milk is rich in calcium, potassium, vitamin A, and does not contain the major allergen β-lactoglobulin.
