[en] In a project named PhytoHealth, the development of analytical methods for studying the impact of phytoestrogens rich diet on the «health value» of animal products is in progress. Despite the ambiguous image that have phytoestrogens, some of their metabolites seemed to have potentially beneficial effects to human health. In a first time, a microbial metabolite (equol) was selected and its metabolism in dairy cow is studied. A first method using the UPLC®-MS/MS technology has been validated and has achieved a screening of equol content in milk consumed in Wallonia. Equol was found in all milk samples analyzed and a significant difference between farming methods has been highlighted. A second analytical method to quantify the equol precursors was then developed and a study of forage plants consumed by Belgian dairy cows will be conducted to select the richest fodder varieties. Other methods will be developed to better understand the metabolism in the cow and estimate the impact of enriched milk on human health. An original approach involving the use of minipigs will be considered. In the end, creating of a differentiated quality animal products chain could be interesting for the consumer, but also recoverable for the producer.
