Lactoferrin is an iron-binding glycoprotein commonly found in mammalian milk. To comply with the amended“Standards for Specification, Scope, Application and Limitation of Food Additives”announced by the Ministry of Health and Welfare of March 10, 2022, which stipulates that“Lactoferrin can be used in foods labeled with daily intake limits, and the total daily intake should not exceed 300 mg”and“This product can be used in special nutritional foods as needed”. A test method for bovine lactoferrin in infant formula products was developed. The protocol in brief was that bovine lactoferrin was reduced by dithiothreitol, alkylated by iodoacetamide, hydrolyzed by trypsin, and then analyzed by an ultra-high performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometer (UPLC-MS/MS). The average recoveries of bovine lactoferrin spiked at 4, 10 and 40 mg/100 g into the blank matrix made of camel milk nutrition powder were 91.0, 95.1 and 105.7%, and the coefficients of variance were 6.7, 3.2 and 6.6%, respectively in intra-day test (n=5); the average recoveries were 93.0, 99.4 and 112.2%, and the coefficients of variance were 7.8, 7.8 and 7.4%, respectively in inter-day test (n=10). We tested commercial nutrition supplement products for the application of the testing method, the results showed the detected values of bovine lactoferrin in 3 commercial products with bovine lactoferrin labeling were in the range of 120-253 mg/100 g. One hydrolyzed formula powder and 2 commercial products constituted of goat milk were not detected of bovine lactoferrin. |
