bull Breast milk is the primary source of nutrition for newborns before they can eat and digest other foods The proteins vitamins and ionic elements such as sodium potassium calcium magnesium chloride and nitrate present in breast milk are essential for infant health By monitoring the concentrations of these ions in breast milk the maternal diet can be adjusted to improve milk quality IC is an efficient means to determine anions even in samples with complex matrixes

bull To meet the demands of the Lactose -intolerant population lactose-free products are commercially produced by enzymatic hydrolysis with lactase 1 However the enzymatic hydrolysis process is not 100 efficient Therefore commercial suppliers need accurate and robust methods to determine lactose concentrations in milk products and residual Lactose is lactose-free products The Application note demonstrate fast separations of Lactose and lactulose in food samples by HPAE-PAD

bull Lactose intolerant individuals use commercially available Lactose-free milk products but these products also contain varying amounts of residual Lactose This application note here describes a sensitive and accurate method to determine Lactose and lactulose in dairy products including lactose-free products using high-performance anion-exchange chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection (HPAE-PAD)

Ion Chromatography

Determination of Lactose is Lactose-Free Milk Products by High-Performance Anion-Exchange Chromatography with Pulsed Amperometric Detection

bull Dicyandiamide is used by farmers to minimize the environmental impact of livestock on land it is also used to make the protein content of food appear higher (ie protein adulteration) Overuse of dicyandiamide can lead to its appearance in dairy products Both reversed-phase HPLC and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MSMS) has been used to quantify dicyandiamide in various matrices

bull Melamine is a nitrogen-rich compound it has been used to fraudulently increase the detected protein level in milk so that the milk can command a higher price The ingestion of Melamine can cause renal complications including kidney and bladder stones and even bladder cancer This application note describes a method of testing infant formula milk for the presence of Melamine

bull Synthetic glucocorticoids are administered to livestock to treat inflammatory diseases and other diseases common to farm animals The presence of glucocorticoid residues in animal-derived food may be harmful to humans The application note helps understand an effective LC-MSMS method to detect eight glucocorticoid residues

bull Apart from the high source of calcium and potassium milk contains several essential elements such as iron copper and zinc Analysis of milk can determine whether milk is meeting the expected nutritional requirements or is lacking alternatively the analysis of trace elements that are toxic in nature can alert us to the possible risk of contamination in milk The application note offers total elemental determinations including iodine for milk and milk products
