Milk proteins and the products of their hydrolysis are characterised by high levels of
biological activity. The health-promoting potential of bovine milk proteins, peptides and …

Background Human milk is the ideal source of nutrition for infants, especially during the first
six months of life. Milk components can protect against inflammation and infection, and …

Lactoferrin (LF) is an iron-binding glycoprotein found in different biological fluids of
mammals and in neutrophils. It has been proposed to be involved in many functions …

Background: When human milk is unavailable, banked milk is recommended for feeding
premature infants. Milk banks use processes to eliminate pathogens; however, variability …

The current treatment protocols for breast cancer have shifted from single agent therapies to
combinatorial approaches that offer synergistic efficacies and reduced side effects. Self …

Bovine milk shows bacteriostatic activity mainly due to the presence of antibacterial proteins,
like lactoferrin, lactoperoxidase and immunoglobulins. Heat treatment is applied to kill …

Lactoferrin (LF) is a multifunctional protein in the transferrin family that has been widely used
in food and pharmaceutical products. However, it is susceptible to denaturation during …

To establish the effect of the presence of milk serum proteins on heat-induced changes to
lactoferrin, lactoferrin alone, and lactoferrin mixed with either milk serum or β-lactoglobulin …

Protein–polysaccharide complexes may be used for the development of delivery systems
with applications in several industries. In the present work, the interaction of lactoferrin (LF …

Lactoferrin is a globular protein from milk that has considerable potential as a functional
ingredient in food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical applications. In this study, we examined the …
