A Genotyping Method for Detecting Foreign Buffalo Material in Mozzarella di Bufala Campana Cheese Using Allele-Specific- and Single-Tube Heminested-Polymerase Chain Reaction. Foods 2023; 12:2399. [PMID: 37372609 DOI: 10.3390/foods12122399] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/05/2023] [Revised: 05/31/2023] [Accepted: 06/12/2023] [Indexed: 06/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Mozzarella di Bufala Campana (MdBC) cheese is a Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) product that is important for the economy and cultural heritage of the Campania region. Food fraud can undermine consumers' trust in this dairy product and harm the livelihood of local producers. The current methods for detecting adulteration in MdBC cheese due to the use of buffalo material from foreign countries could exhibit limitations associated with the required use of expensive equipment, time-consuming procedures, and specialized personnel. To address these limits here, we propose a rapid, reliable, and cost-effective genotyping method that can detect foreign buffalo milk in a counterpart from the PDO area and in MdBC cheese, ensuring the quality and authenticity of the latter dairy product. This method is based on dedicated allele-specific and single-tube heminested polymerase chain reaction procedures. By using allele-specific primers that are designed to detect the nucleotide g.472G>C mutation of the CSN1S1Bbt allele, we distinguished an amplicon of 330 bp in the amplification product of DNA when extracted from milk and cheese, which is specific to the material originating from foreign countries. By spiking foreign milk samples with known amounts of the counterpart from the PDO area, the sensitivity of this assay was determined to be 0.01% v/v foreign to PDO milk. Based on a rough estimate of its simplicity, reliability, and cost, this method could be a valuable tool for identifying adulterated buffalo PDO dairy products.

Abstract
Multiple adulteration is a common trick to mask adulteration detection methods. In this study, the representative multiple adulterated camellia oils were prepared according to the mixture design. Then, these representative oils were employed to build two-class classification models and validate one-class classification model combined with fatty acid profiles. The cross-validation results indicated that the recursive SVM model possessed higher classification accuracy (97.9%) than PLS-DA. In OCPLS model, the optimal percentage of RO, SO, CO and SUO was 2.8%, 0%, 7.2%, 0% respectively in adulterated camellia oil, which is the most similar to the authentic camellia oils. Further validation showed that five adulterated oils with the optimal percentage could be correctly identified, indicating that the OCPLS model could identify multiple adulterated oils with these four cheaper oils. Moreover, this study serves as a reference for one class classification model evaluation and a solution for multiple adulteration detection of other foods.

Abstract
Milk is one of the most important nutritious foods, widely consumed worldwide, either in its natural form or via dairy products. Currently, several economic, health and ethical issues emphasize the need for a more frequent and rigorous quality control of dairy products and the importance of detecting adulterations in these products. For this reason, several conventional and advanced techniques have been proposed, aiming at detecting and quantifying eventual adulterations, preferentially in a rapid, cost-effective, easy to implement, sensitive and specific way. They have relied mostly on electrophoretic, chromatographic and immunoenzymatic techniques. More recently, mass spectrometry, spectroscopic methods (near infrared (NIR), mid infrared (MIR), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and front face fluorescence coupled to chemometrics), DNA analysis (real-time PCR, high-resolution melting analysis, next generation sequencing and droplet digital PCR) and biosensors have been advanced as innovative tools for dairy product authentication. Milk substitution from high-valued species with lower-cost bovine milk is one of the most frequent adulteration practices. Therefore, this review intends to describe the most relevant developments regarding the current and advanced analytical methodologies applied to species authentication of milk and dairy products.

Abstract
Advances in Matrix-assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization -Time-Of-Flight Mass Spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) have led to its supremacy for complex assessment of food authenticity studies, like dairy products fraud, holding promise for the discovery of potential authenticity (bio)markers. In this study, an integrated untargeted protein-based workflow in combination with advanced chemometrics is presented, to address authenticity challenges in PDO feta cheese which is legally manufactured by the mixture of sheep/goat milk. Potential markers attributed to specific animal origin were found from protein profiles acquired for authentic feta and white cheeses (prepared from cow milk), belonging to 4 kDa-18.5 kDa mass area. Rapid detection of feta cheese adulteration from cow milk was also achieved down to 1% adulteration level. The discriminative models showed high predictive ability for feta cheese authenticity (Q2 = 0.920, RMSEE = 0.053) and its adulteration (Q2 = 0.835, RMSEE = 0.121), introducing a reliable approach in routine analysis. The methodology was successfully applied in detection of cow milk in sheep yoghurt.

Abstract
This study used desorption electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry (DESI-MS) to analyse and detect and classify biomarkers in five different animal and plant sources of milk for the first time. A range of differences in terms of features was observed in the spectra of cow milk, goat milk, camel milk, soya milk, and oat milk. Chemometric modelling was then used to classify the mass spectra data, enabling unique or significant markers for each milk source to be identified. The classification of different milk sources was achieved with a cross-validation percentage rate of 100% through linear discriminate analysis (LDA) with high sensitivity to adulteration (0.1-5% v/v). The DESI-MS results from the milk samples analysed show the methodology to have high classification accuracy, and in the absence of complex sample clean-up which is often associated with authenticity testing, to be a rapid and efficient approach for milk fraud control.

Abstract
Chemical analysis of food products relating to the detection of the most common frauds is a complex task due to the complexity of the matrices and the unknown nature of most processes. Moreover, frauds are becoming more and more sophisticated, making the development of reliable, rapid, cost-effective new analytical methods for food control even more pressing. Over the years, MALDI-TOF MS has demonstrated the potential to meet this need, also due to a series of undeniable intrinsic advantages including ease of use, fast data collection, and capability to obtain valuable information even from complex samples subjected to simple pre-treatment procedures. These features have been conveniently exploited in the field of food frauds in several matrices, including milk and dairy products, oils, fish and seafood, meat, fruit, vegetables, and a few other categories. The present review provides a comprehensive overview of the existing MALDI-based applications for food quality assessment and detection of adulterations.

Abstract
The need of controlling illegal addition of water buffalo (WB) milk from foreign countries to the Italian counterpart devoted to the production of Protected Denomination of Origin (PDO) Mozzarella di Bufala Campana (MBC) cheese has promoted the development of simple, fast and cheap isoelectrofocusing (IEF) methods for evaluating the nature of the raw material to be used according to a high-throughput sample multiplexing format, avoiding the use of dedicated mass spectrometry-based procedures. Thus, combined proteomic methods were here integrated with optimized western blotting protocols in solving the complex IEF pattern of casein (CN) mixtures observed when Italian and foreign WB milk are mixed together. Identification of internally deleted αs1-CN hepta-phosphorylated species as well as of still unknown β-CN A hexa-phosphorylated and N-terminally-nicked β-CN A phosphorylated forms present uniquely in foreign WB milk samples, allowed recognizing these molecules as adulteration markers to be assayed in combined IEF-immunoblotting procedures; the latter ones showing optimal migration characteristics to be used in routine assays. A linear relationship between detected area of specific immunorecognized gel bands and percentage of international WB milk added to the Italian counterpart was verified, demonstrating that this method has an adulteration detection limit close to 3% v/v. Based on these results, this analytical procedure is here proposed as optimal one for evaluating the authenticity of PDO MBC cheese products.
