Lactating goats fed a basal ration containing 11% crude protein, were infused intra-abomasally with 45g/d of either casein or glucose, in an attempt to determine whether milk production responsesto casein infusions could be attributed to gluconeogenesis from the casein. Infusions of casein increased the production of milk and milk constituents whereas the-production during glucose infusions was...

Ultra High Temperature (UHT) processing leads to the formation of "cooked" and "flat" flavors in milk. These undesirable notes occur due to the volatile formation of a variety of sulphur containing compounds, methyl ketones and aliphatic aldehydes, derived from the constituents of the milk's matrix during thermal processing and storage. The "cooked" flavor of UHT milk is associated with the pre...

The four types of experiments on milk secretion herein described really fall into one general class so far as the physiological effects produced are concerned. Starvation lowers the blood sugar and raises the osmotic pressure of the blood. The experiment using parathyroid hormone with or without starvation may have its effects interpreted as simply due to starvation since 1000 units of this hor...

Human milk contains all of the constituents that are required for the optimal growth and development of a neonate. It supports the development of brain, immune, and physiological systems. This study aimed to consider the significance of breast milk in preventing oxidative stress by comparing total antioxidant capacity (TAC) in breast and formula milk for premature infants, demonstrating the rel...

This work describes some results of identification and determination of bisphenol A (BPA) in powdered milk by applying the gas chromatography. To determine BPA contents in the milk and to reduce the matrix interference associated with the constituents of the powdered milk, we performed the following activities. First, we ultra-centrifuged the dissolved milk solutions. Next, we preconcentrated t...

longed exclusive breastfeeding can prevent allergic disease [8, 9] . There are over 250 proteins in human breast milk including a wide variety of cytokines, inflammatory mediators, signalling molecules and soluble receptors [10] , yet there is limited literature on the relationship between maternal diet, breast milk immune constituents and allergy development. In this issue of International Arc...

Despite increasing recognition of potential untoward interactions between herbal products and conventional medications, a standard system for prospective assessment of these interactions remains elusive. This information gap was addressed by evaluating the drug interaction liability of the model herbal product milk thistle (Silybum marianum) with the CYP3A probe substrate midazolam. The inhibit...
