Factors affecting lactoferrin concentration in human milk: how much do we know?
Lactoferrin (LF) is a breast milk glycoprotein with antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory effects. Its beneficial properties in infants, especially in those born preterm, are currently being studied in clinical trials. However, the maternal and nursing infant factors that may affect LF concentration in breast milk are still not clear. We conducted a systematic review to investigate the factors th...
متن کاملNutritional factors affecting the fatty acid composition of bovine milk.
The predominant fatty acids in milk are the long-chain fatty acids myristic, palmitic and stearic. These saturated fatty acids account for 75% of the total fatty acids, with a further 21% occurring as monounsaturated fatty acids of which the most prevalent is oleic acid. Only 4 g/100 g of the milk fatty acids are polyunsaturated, occurring mainly as linoleic and linolenic acids. All milk fatty ...
متن کاملLactoferrin and transferrin in bovine milk in relation to certain physiological and pathological factors.
Mean transferrin and lactoferrin concentrations in whey samples from 376 uninfected quarters of 42 Holstein X Friesian cows on the 30th, 150th and 270th days of lactation were respectively 0.030 and 0.080 mg/ml. The mean transferrin concentration in serum was 4.63 mg/ml. Lactation number and location of quarters did not influence milk lactoferrin and transferrin values. Lactoferrin concentratio...
متن کاملGenetic analysis of lactoferrin content in bovine milk.
Bovine lactoferrin (LF) is mainly present in milk and shows important physiological and biological functions. The aim of this study was to estimate the heritability and correlation values of LF content in bovine milk with different economic traits as milk yield (MY), fat and protein percentages, and somatic cell score (SCS). Variance components of the studied traits were estimated by REML using...
متن کاملLactoferrin in milk
Lactoferrin is a major component of breast milk protein, constituting 10-15% of the total content. Each molecule of lactoferrin is capable of binding two atoms of iron and it has been proposed that lactoferrin is involved in iron absorption in the newborn infant. It is known that iron status of exclusively breast-fed infants usually is satisfactory to 6-9 months of age, in spite of a low iron c...
