Identification of milk from different animal and plant sources by desorption electrospray ionisation high-resolution mass spectrometry (DESI-MS)

Y. Hong, N. Birse, et al.

This groundbreaking study by Yunhe Hong and colleagues reveals how desorption electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (DESI-MS) can distinguish between cow, goat, camel, soy, and oat milk with remarkable accuracy. With a 100% cross-validation success rate and an impressive sensitivity to detect milk adulteration, this research presents an innovative, eco-friendly solution for milk fraud control.

Abstract
This study used desorption electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (DESI-MS) to analyze and detect and classify biomarkers in five different animal and plant sources of milk. Differences in spectral features were observed between cow, goat, camel, soy, and oat milk. Chemometric modeling (linear discriminate analysis, LDA) classified the mass spectra data with 100% cross-validation accuracy and high sensitivity to adulteration (0.1–5% v/v). DESI-MS offers a rapid, efficient, and environmentally friendly approach for milk fraud control, requiring no complex sample cleanup.
