![عکس صفحه اول مقاله: Quantification of lactose content in human and cow's milk using UPLC–tandem mass spectrometry Quantification of lactose content in human and cow's milk using UPLC–tandem mass spectrometry](/preview/png/1213828.png)
A sensitive, accurate, and specific quantitative UPLC–MS/MS method was developed for lactose measurement of cow's and human milk and validated with cow's milk samples certified by an external laboratory. The new method employs only a dilution of raw cow's and human milk for simple preparation with no need to remove protein and fat prior to analysis with UPLC–MS/MS. It was operated in negative mode to detect lactose molecules and labeled 13C12-lactose with the highest sensitivity. The principle advantages of the new LC–MS/MS method were: completed lactose determination in 5 min, absolute recovery of 97–107%, lower limit of detection <5 ng/L, and 99% linearity over the concentration range of 0.7–4.4 mg/L for both cow's and human milk. The mean lactose concentration of 51 human milk samples was measured as 56.8 ± 5.5 g/L ranging from 43 to 65 g/L. The described method represents validated lactose analysis with high accuracy and precision for a routine lactose determination in raw human milk.
► Quantification of lactose content in cow's and human milk with high precision and accuracy.
► Dilute and shoot method: new method requires only dilution of cow's and human milk for simple preparation.
► Can be used for a routine purpose.
► Method is not affected by oligosaccharides such as enzymatic lactose assays.
