Our previous study revealed that newborns had a high level of absorption of human milk a-lactalbumin. [1] It decreased during the first month in the whole and nonallergic infants showed a 4fold reduction of gut permeability at 25-30 days of life. But patients with early allergic symptoms have increased gut permeability in comparison to non-allergic infants. In this study we examined gut permeab...

Because not all animal factors influencing profitability can be included in total merit breeding indices for profitability, the association between animal total merit index and true profitability, taking cognisance of all factors associated with costs and revenues, is generally not known. One method to estimate such associations is at the herd level, associating herd average genetic merit with ...

The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between breast milk fat content with maternal anthropometric status, energy and macronutrient intake and weight for age Z-score of exclusively breastfed infants. Breast milk samples and information on energy and macronutrients intake (using 24-hour recall method for 3 days) were collected from 182 lactating women. Weight and height of mo...

To produce milk that is healthier for human consumption, the present study evaluated the effect of including canola oil in the diet of dairy cows on milk production and composition as well as the nutritional quality of this milk fat. Eighteen Holstein cows with an average daily milk yield of 22 (± 4) kg/d in the middle stage of lactation were used. The cows were distributed in 6 contemporary 3x...

The aim of this study was to define breeding goals and determine the suitable selection index in Rayeni cashmere goat using simulated data. To select animals for increased quantity of meat, milk and cashmere produced, body weight of the doe (BWD), milk weight (MW), cashmere weight (CW), weight of kids for sale (WK) and number of kids for sale per doe (NK) was used as selection criteria. Four se...

The study examined the consumer preference for processed milk in Mymensingh town. The study was mainly based on primary data in which 40 consumers were purposively selected from Mymensingh town. In the study, preference of consumers for processed milk i.e. powder milk, condensed milk and pasteurized milk were investigated. Consumers’ preference for processed milk was ascertained through a 4-poi...

In most carbohydrate-containing foods, the blood insulin response is predictable and is closely linked to the food's glycaemic index (GI). A single study, examining whole milk and fermented milk products made from whole milk, recently reported a large dissociation between the GI and insulinaemic index (II) in healthy normal adults. Because the fat component of a food may influence the GI and II...

background: human breast milk is the most important food for infants and one of the main roads to exposure to toxic substances. in this study, nonylphenol (np) levels in human milk samples collected from turkish mothers (n=100) were determined, and the factors including mothers’ demographics, eating habits, obstetric histories, and usage of cleaning and cosmetic products were examined. methods:...

Procedures for selecting sires are compared in terms of making maximum genetic progress in economic lnerit. A quadratic index, a simplified form of the quadratic index and a linear index to evaluate economic merit, and a restricted index to improve milk as much as possible while holding milk fat percentage constant, all result in nearly equal expected genetic progress in economic merit. Selecti...
