In connection with a recent study on human milk fat (1.) an opportunity was afforded to measure qualitatively and quantitatively the fatty acid distribution in the fat from human milk collected during the first 3 days of lactation. Some differences in composition were observed ,for these colostrum samples when they were compared with mature human milk fat. It was considered desirable therefore ...

Different technologically treated Italian milks (whole and semi-skimmed ultra-high temperature (UHT), pasteurized and microfiltered milk), collected from 2009 to 2012, were evaluated for nutritional and technological properties. No significant differences in calcium and sodium were detected (p > 0.05), while significant differences were observed concerning phosphorus content, between whole and ...

ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to determine relationship between Lithuanian dairy cow breed productive and reproductive traits. carried out with 586 fully completed lactation cows: 184 Holstein (H), 320 Black White (LBW) 82 Red (LR) cows (291 in I, 149 II 146 III older lactations). Cow productivity reproduction traits were calculated. H I had a lower insemination index compared the LR...

The authors have analysed fat contents and fatty acid composition of the mother’s colostrum and mother’s milk in comparison with the newest publications. They have established that the average fat contents of the mother’s milk were 3.6–4.0%, and increased during lactation. Among the different ethnic groups there was found no significant difference in the fat contents of the mother’s milk, altho...

The ties and relationships within the Ayrshire and Jersey bull populations from the United States and Canada were investigated. Twenty-two percent of genes in the United States Ayrshire bull population were of Canadian origin, whereas 22% of genes in the Canadian Jersey bull population were of United States origin. Average genetic relationships among bulls between countries were comparable with...

this study was conducted to evaluate production response of early lactating cows to rumen protected fats. twelve (nine multiparous and three primiparous) holstein cows (26±4 d in milk) were empolyed in a replicated 3×3 latin square design of 21-d periods. each period consisted of 14 days of adaptation and 7 days of sampling. cows received diets containing either one of two types of protected fa...

Background: The Osteopontin (OPN) is a highly phosphorylated glycoprotein in numbers of bovine tissues and milk. OPN has been reported to be associated with milk production in cattle. Objective: The genotype and allelic frequencies for OPN and its association with milk production will be evaluated in Iranian Holstein Bulls.   Materials and Methods: Bulls DNA (100) was isolated. Oligo was used f...

In lactating mammary glands, milk fat is secreted as fat globules surrounded by a cell plasma membrane containing characteristic membrane-associated proteins. Among these, butyrophilin has been shown to be specific and intrinsic to the fat globule membrane, whereas milk-fat globule EGF-factor VIII (MFG-E8) is uncertain. We characterized in the present study MFG-E8 in milk fat globules and in th...

Signer, E., Murphy, G. M., Edkins, S., and Anderson, C. M. (1974). Archives of Disease in Childhood, 49, 174. Role of bile salts in fat malabsorption of premature infants. Eighteen premature infants were studied. 9 were fed with human milk and 9 with a modified cow's milk. Subsequent to a 72-hour fat balance, a duodenal intubation was performed on the 14th day of life. Total bile acids were det...
