The beneficial effects of human milk extend to the feeding of premature infants, because their nutrition support must be designed to compensate for metabolic and gastrointestinal immaturity, immunologic compromise, and maternal psychosocial conditions. Significant effects on the recipient host, such as reduction in sepsis and necrotizing enterocolitis, have been reported for premature infants f...

Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) is the etiologic agent of paratuberculosis, a disease with considerable economic impact, principally on dairy cattle herds. Animals with paratuberculosis shed viable MAP especially in their milk, faeces and semen. MAP may have a role in the development of Crohn’s disease in humans via the consumption of contaminated milk and milk products. The c...

When the Wisconsin dairy sheep industry got started in the mid 1990s, cheesemakers had to get accustomed to a whole new source of milk. All were familiar with cow milk and some were familiar with goat milk. However, sheep milk was much more concentrated with about twice as much fat and 40% more protein that cow or goat milk. They also found that sheep milk responded differently in the cheese ma...

The aim of this study is to show the importance and significance of goat milk . Goat is known as poor man’s cow .It play a vital role in the socio-economic structure of rural poor. Goat milk contains higher amount of Ca, Mg and P than cow and human milk but vitamin D, vitamin B12 and folate contents are less. Although fat and protein is somewhat low in goat milk than cow milk, but there is a no...

Milk is an important food; it is considered as a good source of Ca. Comparison studies of chemical and mineral contents of milk from human, cow, buffalo, camel and goat in Egypt are rare, so we determine chemical and mineral composition cows; camels; buffalo and goats milk in Egypt and to compare with the human milk since such comparisons are rare in Egypt. There are several studies dealing wit...

Data from calf studies conducted over the past 20 yr has shown that preweaning nutrient intake, from milk or milk replacer, can have profound effects on development of the calf that enhance first lactation and lifetime productivity. Many of the studies show positive but not significant effects of preweaning nutrition on long-term productivity, primarily due to a lack of power, usually due to in...

Milk is an important component of a balanced diet and contains many valuable constituents. A considerable part of the milk healthbenefits is related to its proteins, not only for their nutritive value but also for their biological properties. Scientific evidence suggests that anticarcinogenic activities, antihypertensive properties, immune system modulation, and other metabolic features of milk...

r s m ( BSTRACT bjective Little research has been conducted on health ffects associated with consumption of flavored milk. The urposes of this study were to compare nutrient intakes nd body measures among children and adolescents rinking flavored milk (with or without plain milk), exlusively plain milk, and no milk. esign Data used in the study included intakes reported n 24-hour dietary recall...

In recent years it has become a practical possibility to distinguish between various types of milk. The difficulty of providing children's hospitals with a sufficient supply of breast milk from wet-nurses has made it necessary to try to collect mother's milk either by voluntary contribution or by purchase. Thanks to successful collaboration with the local welfare centres, the Gothenburg Childre...

OBJECTIVES There is increasing evidence that breastfeeding has long-term effects on offspring biology and health, which has heightened interest in understanding the extent of variation in breast milk composition and its underlying determinants. Here, we report variation in milk macronutrient composition in a well-characterized cohort of young Filipino mothers and test underlying maternal predic...
