Sodium benzoate and potassium sorbate are widely employed as preservatives in the food industry; however, their use to restrict microbial growth in milk is prohibited. Our novel method achieved performance indicators in accordance with the criteria outlined by the International Conference on Harmonization. The extraction process involved sample dilution in acetonitrile (1:1 v/v), followed by subsequent centrifugation, filtration and injection into a high-performance liquid chromatography system with a photodiode array detector. The detection and quantification limits for sodium benzoate were determined to be 0.204 and 0.618 mg/l, respectively, while for potassium sorbate, these values were 0.108 and 0.328 mg/l, respectively. The accuracy ranged from 92.67 to 99.53%, with pH 4.0 selected as the optimal condition to ensure adequate resolution of the preservatives. The proposed method stands out due to its simplicity and speed, using a single reagent in modest quantities during sample preparation. This approach reduces toxicity and minimizes the production of pollutants during disposal. Furthermore, the novel method requires less raw material and energy consumption, aligning with the principles of green chemistry. Its lower quantitation limits render it more sensitive when compared to the official analysis. The preparation, separation, and simultaneous detection of these preservatives in a short period of time make this method suitable for integration into industrial workflows.</p>","PeriodicalId":15615,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Dairy Research","volume":" ","pages":"465-470"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143567411","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mastitis phenotypes were generated for a Holstein-Friesian × Jersey crossbred research herd of 864 cows, bred from six defined sires and managed as two cohorts in a seasonal calving system in New Zealand. Naturally occurring new intramammary infections (IMI) and clinical mastitis (CM) were monitored in their first two lactations from herd records, milking staff observations and bacteriology of quarter milk samples collected at four time-points during each lactation. The animals retained to their third lactation were then exposed to a single intramammary challenge with <i>Streptococcus uberis</i>. We used a relative risk (RR) analysis to rank performance of sire daughters for pathogen-specific phenotypes for new IMI and CM, and somatic cell count (SCC) traits, and their clinical outcomes to the challenge. Generally, daughters of sire B had the highest RR for new IMI or CM by a major pathogen, whereas daughters of sires A and C had a consistently lower risk. The RR for sires E, D and F were intermediate and inconsistent across major pathogens. Daughters of sire B ranked highest for all CM cases and SCC traits whereas sires A and C ranked lowest. Following intramammary challenge, daughters of sires A and C were more likely to develop CM, whereas daughters of sire B and F were less likely to develop CM. Thus, the hypothesis was rejected.
