We evaluated the peptide sequences of goat milk casein hydrolysates using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) with a nanoAcquity nano HPLC system (Waters, Milford, MA) and a Q Exactive mass spectrometer (Thermo Scientific) as reported previously (Forde et al., 2015; (link)Song et al., 2017a) . Fraction 1 was injected into the trap column (20 mm × 100; Polymicro, Phoenix, AZ) packed with an Aqua C18 column (5 μm, 125 Å; Phenomenex, Torrance, CA) and separated on a micro-analytical column (50 μm × 10 cm; Polymicro) packed with an Aqua C18 column (3 μm, 125 Å; Phenomenex). The eluting program included solvent A (0.1% formic acid in water) and solvent B (0.1% formic acid in acetonitrile); the linear gradient was 1 to 40% solvent B for 40 min. The flow rate was 0.2 μL/min. The eluate was injected directly into the MS system, and electrospray ionization mode was carried out with full mass spectrum scanning at 100 to 2500 m/z. All identified peptide sequences of goat milk casein hydrolysates were confirmed by comparing them with Capra hircus milk casein from the UniProt (http: / / www .uniprot .org/ ) and National Center for Biotechnology Information (http: / / www .ncbi .nlm .nih .gov) databases.

The purified peptide fraction displaying the greatest DPP-IV inhibitory activity was analyzed by LC-ESI MS/MS with a nanoAcquity nano HPLC system (Waters, Milford, MA), which was directly interfaced with a Q Exactive mass spectrometer (Thermo Scientific, Waltham, MA), as previously described (Zhang et al., 2015) . Briefly, the sample was injected into a trap column (100 μm × 20 mm, Polymicro Technologies, Phoenix, AZ) packed with Aqua C18 column (5 μm particle size, 125 Å, Phenomenex, Torrance, CA) and separated on a micro analytical column (50 μm × 10 cm, Polymicro Technologies) packed with Aqua C18 column (3 μm particle size, 125 Å, Phenomenex). The eluting program was performed using a linear gradient of acetonitrile [1-40% (vol/vol) in 40 min] and 0.1% (vol/vol) formic acid in water at a flow rate of 200 nL/min. The eluate was directly injected into the MS system. The MS analysis was carried out in positive ion mode and full scans were performed for Auto MS/ MS between 100 and 2,500 m/z. The acquired MS/ MS data were preprocessed with Mascot Distiller 2.4 (MatrixScience, London, UK). The AA sequences of peptides were identified by comparison with identified peptide sequences from Equus caballus whey proteins (UniProt database, http:// www .uniprot .org/ ).

Flavonols were analyzed by HPLC using the same HPLC system described above according to the method of Cho et al. (2005) [32 (link)]. Separation was performed at room temperature on a 4.6 mm × 250 mm Aqua C18 column (Phenomenex, Torrance, CA, USA) preceded by a 3.0 mm × 4.0 mm ODS C18 guard column. The mobile phase was a linear gradient of 2% acetic acid (A) and 0.5% acetic acid in water and acetonitrile (50:50 v/v) (B) from 10% B to 55% B in 50 min and from 55% B to 100% B in 10 min at a flow rate of 1 mL/min. The system was equilibrated for 20 min at the initial gradient prior to each injection. A detection wavelength of 360 nm was used to monitor flavonol peaks. Flavonols were quantified as rutin equivalents using an external calibration curve (3.3, 6.6, 13.2, 26.4, 52.8, 105.6, 211.2 mg/L; R2 = 0.9999) of an authentic standard (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA), with results expressed as mg of rutin equivalents per g of WBB powder.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
