Abstract
We presented a label-free fluorescent biosensor based on magnetic dual-aptamer allosteric regulation of β-lactoglobulin (β-LG) detection. The bovine serum albumin (BSA) acted as the bridge to connect amino-modified magnetic beads and aptamer, which synthesized pyramid-type probes (MBAP) with high capture and reduced nonspecific adsorption. Moreover, the original aptamer was tailored and then designed as a bivalent aptamer to fabricate allosteric signal probes (ASP). The ASP can both specifically capture β-LG and output the fluorescence signal. The detection mechanism is as follows. The combination of the dual-aptamer and β-LG triggered the allosteric change, resulting in the release of SYBR Green (SG I) from the allosteric signal probe and change signals. This method exhibits a broad linear detection range from 10 ng/mL to 1 mg/mL and the limit of detection reaches as low as 8.06 ng/mL. This study provides a highly generalizable strategy for protein biomolecular detection via replacing different target aptamers.

Abstract
Tracing the presence of allergenic β-lactoglobulin (β-Lg) in infant foods is an urgent need, but the interference from the protein-rich matrix often hampered the detection accuracy. Here, we developed a sandwich assay for β-Lg in infant food formula based on a hierarchically architectured antifouling capture probe and fluorescent recognition probe. The antifouling capture probe was constructed from the polydopamine-coated magnetic particles (Fe3O4@PDA), which was modified with repeated glutamic acid-lysine (EK) antifouling peptide and aptamer towards β-Lg. The spatial arrangement of these ligands on the Fe3O4@PDA surface was carefully tailored. Furthermore, a fluorescent recognition probe based on aptamer-modified silica-doped carbon quantum dot was developed to explore a sandwich assay for β-Lg with the capture probe. The sandwich assay was proved to have high potential in detecting β-Lg in commercially available infant food samples. The work provided a new approach to developing detection methods with matrix interference-resistant properties.

Abstract
Two carbon dots (CDs) (λEm = 525 nm, G-CDs and λEm = 640 nm, R-CDs) were synthesized from citric acid and urea. The bovine serum albumin (BSA) responsiveness of the R-CDs was used to develop a "fluorescence-wavelength" label-free point of care testing (POCT) for the detection of the milk quality marker BSA with the detection limit (LOD) of 4.89 μg/mL for fluorescence mode and 3.38 μg/mL for wavelength mode. In addition, R-CDs were found to have hydroxyl radical (·OH)-dependent fluorescence quenching properties, and a "fluorescence-photothermal" immunosensor based on nanobodies was constructed by introducing the fluorescence signal of R-CDs@BSA and the photothermal signal of oxTMB for the detection of β-lactoglobulin (β-LG) with the LOD of 0.034 ng/mL for fluorescence mode and 0.075 ng/mL for photothermal mode. The tandem detection of POCT and immunosensor enables the simultaneous and highly sensitive detection of BSA and β-LG after only simple dilution of less than 5 µL of sample.

Abstract
The problems of inaccurate detection values of thermal-processed β-lactoglobulin (β-LG) content seriously affect the screening of allergens. A monoclonal antibody (mAb) against β-LG was successfully prepared and a highly sensitive sandwich ELISA (sELISA) was constructed with specific nanobody (Nb) as the capture antibody with detection limit of 0.24 ng/mL. Based on this sELISA, the ability of Nb and mAb to recognize β-LG and β-LG interacting with milk components was explored. Combined with protein structure analysis to elaborate the mechanism of shielding β-LG antigen epitopes during thermal-processing, thus enabling the differentiation between pasteurized and ultra-high temperature sterilized milk, the detection of milk content in milk-containing beverages, and the highly sensitive detection and analysis of β-LG allergens in dairy-free products. The method provides methodological support for identifying the quality of dairy products and reducing the risk of β-LG contamination in dairy-free products.

Abstract
β-lactoglobulin (β-Lg) is a protein found in milk that can cause severe allergic reactions, including rash, vomiting, and diarrhea. Thus, it is crucial to develop a sensitive β-Lg detection method to protect people who are susceptible to allergies. Here, we introduce a novel and highly sensitive fluorescent aptamer biosensor for detecting β-Lg. First, a fluorescein-based dye (FAM)-labeled β-lactoglobulin aptamer (β-Lg aptamer) is adsorbed on the surface of tungsten disulfide (WS2) nanosheets via van der Waals forces, resulting in fluorescence quenching. When β-Lg is present, the β-Lg aptamer selectively binds to β-Lg, causing a conformational change in the β-Lg aptamer and releasing it from the surface of WS2 nanosheets, which restores the fluorescence signal. Simultaneously, DNase I in the system cleaves the aptamer bound to the target, producing a short oligonucleotide fragment and releasing β-Lg. The released β-Lg then binds to another β-Lg aptamer adsorbed on WS2, initiating the next round of cleavage, resulting in significant amplification of the fluorescence signal. This method has a linear detection range of 1-100 ng mL-1, and the limit of detection is 0.344 ng mL-1. Furthermore, this approach has been successfully used for detecting β-Lg in milk samples with satisfactory results, providing new opportunities for food analysis and quality control.

Abstract
An on-line aptamer affinity solid-phase extraction capillary electrophoresis-mass spectrometry (AA-SPE-CE-MS) method was developed to purify, preconcentrate, separate, and characterize the milk allergenic protein β-lactoglobulin (β-LG) in food samples. The sorbent to pack into the SPE microcartidges was prepared by immobilizing an aptamer against β-LG onto magnetic bead particles. After optimizing the SPE-CE-MS method, the sample (ca. 75 μL) was loaded in separation background electrolyte (BGE, 2 M acetic acid pH 2.2), while a solution of 100 mM NH4OH (pH 11.2) (ca. 100 nL) was used for the protein elution. The linearity of the method ranged between 0.1 and 20 μg mL-1 and the limit of detection (LOD) was 0.05 μg mL-1, which was 200 times lower than by CE-MS. The method was repeatable in terms of relative standard deviation (RSD) for migration times and peak areas (<0.5% and 2.4%, respectively) and microcartridge lifetime was more than 25 analyses. The applicability of the method for the determination of low levels of β-LG was shown by analyzing milk-free foods (i.e. a 100% cocoa dark chocolate, a hypoallergenic formula for infants, and a dairy-free white bread) and milk-containing white breads. Results were satisfactory in all cases, thus demonstrating the great potential of the developed method for accurate food safety and quality control.

Abstract
A fluorescence detection method based on quantum dot-aptamer-graphene oxide probes (QD-Apt-GO) was developed to detect β-lactoglobulin (β-LG) in foods. When β-LG was present in the samples, it specifically bound to the aptamer, inhibiting the binding of probes to graphene oxide (GO), and the fluorescence of the probes could be detected. When β-LG was not present, the probes could bind to GO through π-π stacking, and the fluorescence was consequently quenched. The detection range of the optimized assay for β-LG detection was 0.36-500 mg L-1. The limit of detection (LOD) for β-LG was 96.91 μg L-1. The method was also validated for food sample detection. In the spike and recovery experiments of Neocate amino acid infant formula, infant millet cookies, and infant rice porridge, the recoveries were in the range of 83.33-114.53%, which met the required range of the addition recoveries. At the same time, the results were consistent with those of commercial ELISA kits. Three types of random food products purchased from a local market were analyzed for β-LG via the developed assay and using a commercial ELISA kit. The results showed good accuracy and consistency between the proposed method and the commercial ELISA kit.

Abstract
β-Lactoglobulin (β-Lg), a food allergen, can easily cause allergic reactions in infants and young children. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a rapid, sensitive, and selective detection method to protect individuals prone to allergies. In this paper, a fluorescence assay based on WS2 nanosheets and a fluorescent dye (FAM)-labeled β-Lg aptamer was designed to detect β-Lg rapidly with high sensitivity. In the sensing platform, the β-Lg aptamer is adsorbed on the WS2 nanosheet surface by van der Waals forces, which trigger the phenomenon of fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) and suppress the fluorescence signal in the system. When β-Lg is present, the conformation of the aptamer specifically bound to β-Lg changes. Therefore, the aptamer is separated from the WS2 nanosheet surface, and the fluorescence signal is recovered. This method combines the high quenching efficiency of WS2 nanosheets and good specificity of the β-Lg aptamer. The detection range of this method for β-Lg is 0.1-100 μg mL-1. The detection limit is 20.4 ng mL-1. This method exhibits high sensitivity, selectivity and good reproducibility, and it can be used for β-Lg detection in actual samples.

Abstract
In this study, a thermo-sensitive molecularly imprinted fluorescence sensor was developed for the specific detection of β-Lactoglobulin (β-LG) allergen in milk products. The metal–organic frameworks (MIL-100) with a high specific surface area was coated on the surface of upconversion micro-particles (UCMPs). As the core, an imprinted polymer layer allowing for swelling and shrinking with response to temperature was prepared, which exhibited high adsorption and mass transfer capabilities for β-LG allergen. The fluorescence intensity of UCMPs@MIL-100@MIP decreased linearly with the concentration of β-LG in the range of 0.1–0.8 mg mL−1, and the limit of detection was 0.043 mg mL−1. The imprinting factor reached 3.415, which indicated that excellent specificity of the UCMPs@MIL-100@MIP for β-LG allergen. In the analysis of β-LG allergen in actual milk samples, the proposed UCMPs@MIL-100@MIP fluorescence sensor produced reliable and accurate results (recovery: 86.0–98.4%, RSD: 2.8–6.8%), closely related to the results of standard HPLC method (correlation coefficient: 0.9949), indicating that its feasibility in the detection of β-LG allergen.

Abstract
The bovine milk allergenic protein, 'β-lactoglobulin' is one of the leading causes of milk allergic reaction. In this research, a novel label-free non-faradaic capacitive aptasensor was designed to detect β-lactoglobulin using a Laser Scribed Graphene (LSG) electrode. The graphene was directly engraved into a microgapped (~ 95 µm) capacitor-electrode pattern on a flexible polyimide (PI) film via a simple one-step CO2 laser irradiation. The novel hybrid nanoflower (NF) was synthesized using 1,1'-carbonyldiimidazole (CDI) as the organic molecule and copper (Cu) as the inorganic molecule via one-pot biomineralization by tuning the reaction time and concentration. NF was fixed on the pre-modified PI film at the triangular junction of the LSG microgap specifically for bio-capturing β-lactoglobulin. The fine-tuned CDI-Cu NF revealed the flower-like structures was viewed through field emission scanning electron microscopy. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy showed the interactions with PI film, CDI-Cu NF, oligoaptamer and β-lactoglobulin. The non-faradaic sensing of milk allergen β-lactoglobulin corresponds to a higher loading of oligoaptamer on 3D-structured CDI-Cu NF, with a linear range detection from 1 ag/ml to 100 fg/ml and attomolar (1 ag/ml) detection limit (S/N = 3:1). This novel CDI-Cu NF/LSG microgap aptasensor has a great potential for the detection of milk allergen with high-specificity and sensitivity.

Abstract
Proteomics is a new area of study that in recent decades has provided great advances in the field of medicine. However, its enormous potential for the study of proteomes makes it also applicable to other areas of science. Milk is a highly heterogeneous and complex fluid, where there are numerous genetic variants and isoforms with post-translational modifications (PTMs). Due to the vast number of proteins and peptides existing in its matrix, proteomics is presented as a powerful tool for the characterization of milk samples and their products. The technology developed to date for the separation and characterization of the milk proteome, such as two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2DE) technology and especially mass spectrometry (MS) have allowed an exhaustive characterization of the proteins and peptides present in milk and dairy products with enormous applications in the industry for the control of fundamental parameters, such as microbiological safety, the guarantee of authenticity, or the control of the transformations carried out, aimed to increase the quality of the final product.

Abstract
Food allergies have become a nonnegligible food safety issue, and milk allergies are one of the most common food allergies, that has attracted large consumer attention. In this work, a novel label-free photoelectrochemical (PEC) immunosensor for the detection of the allergen β-lactoglobulin (β-LG) in dairy products was designed that used the specific recognition of allergen β-LG and antibodies in dairy products in combination with biosensing technology. Here, Ag2S-sensitized spindle-shaped BiVO4/BiOBr heterojunction was fixed on the surface of the ITO electrode as an excellent photoactive substrate and effectively improved the photocurrent responses and sensitivity. Thioglycolic acid (TGA) was used as a linker to immobilize the β-LG antibody on the surface of the electrode. The photocurrent was detected at different antigen concentrations, which realized the quantitative testing of β-LG. Under the optimal experimental conditions, the PEC immunosensor proved an ideal linear relationship ranging from 10 pg/mL to 100 ng/mL, with a low detection limit of 3.7 pg/mL. The designed immunosensor showed good stability, a wide linear range, high sensitivity and good reproducibility and could be used for the detection of actual samples. The PEC immunosensor had a strong ability to specifically recognize β-LG, which was not affected by other proteins in the milk without pretreatment. Meanwhile, the developed immunosensor provided a promising PEC detection platform and reference idea for the detection of other proteins in milk.

Abstract
A simple and low-cost electrochemical sensor based on multimodified screen-printed electrodes (SPEs) was successfully synthesized for the sensitive detection of β-lactoglobulin (β-Lg). The surface treatment of SPEs was accomplished by a simple drip coating method using polyethyleneimine (PEI), reduced graphene oxide (rGO), and gold nanoclusters (AuNCs), and the treated SPEs showed excellent electrical conductivity. The modified SPEs were then characterized with UV-Vis, SEM, TEM, and FTIR to analyze the morphology and composition of the AuNCs and the rGO. An anti-β-Lg antibody was then immobilized on the composite material obtained by modifying rGO with PEI and AuNCs (PEI-rGO-AuNCs), leading to the remarkable reduction in conductivity of the SPEs due to the reaction between antigen and antibody. The sensor obtained using this novel approach enabled a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.08 ng/mL and a detection range from 0.01 to 100 ng/mL for β-Lg. Furthermore, pure milk samples from four milk brands were measured using electrochemical sensors, and the results were in excellent agreement with those from commercial enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) methods.

Abstract
Cow's milk allergy is one of the most frequent and severe IgE-induced food allergies for children, demanding sensitive analytical methods, and β-lactoglobulin (BLG) can be as an important biomarker for detection of milk protein. In this study, a highly sensitive sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (sELISA) based on a specific polyclonal antibody against human IgE linear epitopes of BLG and an anti-BLG polyclonal antibody-platinum nanoparticles probe was described for detection of BLG. This sELISA exhibited an ultrawide linear range of 0.49-1.6 × 104 ng/mL, covering more than four orders of magnitude. The limit of detection was 0.12 ng/mL, which was 16-fold lower than that using traditional sELISA with the same antibodies. Furthermore, the proposed approach showed high recoveries (93.53%-111.95%) and low coefficient of variation (1.49%-12.50%) after analysis of samples fortified with BLG. The presence of allergenic BLG residues also could be detected in partially hydrolyzed infant formulas. These results, in comparison with conventional and commercial BLG detection sELISAs, highlight that this proposed sELISA could be a reliable and user-friendly tool to monitor trace amounts of BLG and its potentially allergenic residues in foods.

Abstract
In this study, a new approach was introduced to identify marker peptides that reflect the thermal treatment of commercial milk samples and differentiate ultrahigh-temperature processed (UHT) milk from mildly heated milk. Peptide profiles of training set samples, pasteurized (n = 20), extended shelf life (n = 29), and UHT (n = 29) milk, were recorded by MALDI-TOF-MS after StageTip microextraction. As marker candidates, 13 peptides were selected, and their cutoff levels were defined. The quality of the cutoff levels was then tested with a blind test set. Thus, the peptide m/z 1701.0, which was identified as pyroQ-βcasein194-209, could ideally differentiate UHT milk from mildly heated milk with an accuracy of 100%. Due to its high reliability and sensitivity, this peptide may be applied in routine analysis to monitor thermal processing of milk. An additional heating experiment showed that the marker peptide candidates are formed during milk processing by endogenous enzymes and selective thermal cleavage.

Abstract
BACKGROUND α-Lactalbumin (a-LA), β-lactoglobulin (β-LG) and lactoferrin (LF) are of high nutritional value which have made ingredients of choice in the formulation of modern foods and beverages. There remains an urgent need to develop novel biosensing methods for quantification featuring reduced cost, improved sensitivity, selectivity and more rapid response, especially for simultaneous detection of multiple whey proteins. RESULTS A novel visualized microarray method was developed for the determination of a-LA, β-LG and LF in milk samples without the need for complex or time-consuming pre-treatment steps. The measurement principle was based on the competitive immunological reaction and silver enhancement technique. In this case, a visible array dots as the detectable signals were further amplified and developed by the silver enhancement reagents. The microarray could be assayed by the microarray scanner. The detection limits (S/N = 3) were estimated to be 40 ng/mL (α-LA), 50 ng/mL (β-LG), 30 ng/mL (LF) (n = 6). CONCLUSIONS The method could be used to simultaneously analyze the whey protein contents of various raw milk samples and ultra-high temperature treated (UHT) milk samples including skimmed milk and high calcium milk. The analytical results were in good agreement with that of the high performance liquid chromatography. The presented visualized microarray has showed its advantages such as high-throughput, specificity, sensitivity and cost-effective for analysis of various milk samples.
