Summary: This study compared the sensory and chemical properties of fluid milk packaged in paperboard cartons, low-density polyethylene, high-density polyethylene, polyethylene terephthalate, linear low-density polyethylene, and glass in the absence of light. The results showed that milk packaged in paperboard cartons had noticeable paperboard flavor by day 5 and higher levels of hexanal compared to other packaging types. Glass, polyethylene terephthalate, and high-density polyethylene packaging were not distinguished by consumers at day 10. Package type influences fluid milk flavor, with greater effects found in skim milk compared to whole milk. Paperboard cartons do not preserve milk freshness as well as other packaging types, due to flavor migration and scalping. Glass remains the best option for preserving fluid milk flavor, but HDPE and PET provide additional benefits in the absence of light.

Summary: This study reports a facile in situ regeneration of oxidized copper flakes for the synthesis of highly conductive non-oxidized nanocomposites. The regenerated copper flakes and nanosatellite particles exhibit significantly improved electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity, making them suitable for industrial applications.

Summary: After a year of the SARS-CoV-2 epidemic, there is still no specific effective treatment, so finding pharmacological and immunological mechanisms to control the infection is important. Using cow's milk immune to BCoV as a possible control measure against COVID-19, due to the close phylogenetic relationship between COVID-19 and BCoV viruses, can help with specific immune response.

Summary: This study assessed the impact of reducing dissolved oxygen content on the quality of UHT milk using flash deoxygenation treatment. The results showed that flash deoxygenation significantly inhibited oxidation and Maillard reactions, improved stability, and reduced the content of undesirable volatile flavor substances in the milk.

Summary: This study analyzed the lipidome of fine-flavor cocoa fermentation using LC-MS-QTOF and developed a Machine Learning model to assess potential bioactivity. The results showed that the cocoa lipidome, mainly consisting of fatty acyls and glycerophospholipids, remained stable during fermentation. The K-Nearest Neighbors algorithm exhibited the best performance and classified 28 identified lipids as potential bioactive compounds. None of these compounds have been previously reported as bioactive.

Summary: Extracellular vesicles, such as exosomes, are small bilayered biovesicles released by cells, enriched with biologically active components. Milk exosomes play a key role in infant growth and development, while exosomes derived from different cell types have regenerative and immunomodulatory properties. Isolation protocols for milk exosomes allow the purification of highly enriched fractions, expressing typical exosomal protein markers.

Summary: The study aimed to determine the removal level of milk-derived whey protein (MDWP) needed to eliminate sulfur/eggy flavor in fat-free micellar casein concentrate (MCC) beverages. It was found that the purity of MCC and the fat content in the beverages had an impact on flavor. Increasing MCC purity had a greater effect in reducing sulfur/eggy flavor compared to increasing milk fat content.

Summary: This study identified markers for detecting adulteration in goat milk using proteomics and metabolomics methods. SCGB1D, uric acid, and N-formylkynurenine were found to be potential markers at different adulteration levels. These findings can aid in assessing the authenticity of goat milk.

Summary: This study analyzed and compared the differences in proteins, fatty acids, minerals, and basic chemical composition between canine, bovine, and caprine milk. Canine milk contains higher contents of protein, fat, and ash, and a lower content of lactose compared to bovine and caprine milk. The protein and fatty acid profiles of canine milk are different from those of bovine and caprine milk. Canine milk also has higher levels of Mg, K, Na, Fe, and Zn.

Summary: This study isolated and identified 52 lactic acid bacteria and 20 yeast strains from traditional homemade Kazakhstan koumiss, selected KZLAB13 and KZY10 strains as the best cofermentation combinations, and determined the optimal fermentation conditions. Results showed that cow milk fermented by these 2 strains possessed a promising taste, flavor, and quality, indicating that a combination of KZLAB13 and KZY10 strains can simulate the traditional koumiss.
