Abstract  

Dietary advanced glycation end products (AGEs) are involved in the pathogenesis of diabetic complications, atherosclerosis, and kidney disease. Formation of Nε-(carboxymethyl)lysine (CML), a well-known AGEs, was evaluated from the reaction of casein from bovine milk with different reducing sugars (glucose, tagatose, and xylose) at various sugar concentrations and heating temperatures (75 and 120 °C) used in food processing to determine the best sweetener to be used in dairy products. The concentration of CML was measured using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Additionally, SDS-PAGE was carried out to observe the changes in the molecular weight of casein. The results reveal that tagatose leads to a lower CML concentration at 75 °C than glucose or xylose, whereas no significant differences are observed at 120 °C. We conclude that it would be more appropriate to use tagatose rather than glucose or xylose as a sweetener, considering the AGEs contents in heat-treated dairy products.
