Colostrum and milk from dairy sources consist of whey, casein, and fat, which have notable pharmacological properties due to their proteins and peptides. Here, we present a protocol for isolating, simulating in vitro gastrointestinal digestion, and fractionating colostrum and milk hydrolysates from any dairy source. We also describe steps for nano-liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry (nano-LC-ESI-MS/MS) identification of proteins and peptides and in silico system biology-based profiling of the proteins and peptides present in the hydrolysates.

BackgroundSupplementary feeding, colostrum or, in some countries, commercial milk formula, is given to newborns of women with Type 1 diabetes to prevent neonatal hypoglycemia. Few studies have explored the content of colostrum from women with Type 1 diabetes.Research AimsThis study aimed to investigate the macronutrients in colostrum collected during pregnancy and in the early postpartum period to compare colostrum contents in women with and without Type 1 diabetes.

This Technical Note provides a detailed description of a sample preparation procedure, along with the validation of a reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) method for quantitatively determining lactoferrin (LF) in porcine colostrum and milk. The analysis of native milk samples is a challenging process due to the complex composition of the sample. Raw milk is an emulsion and colloid of fat globules in a water-based liquid containing dissolved carbohydrates and protein aggregates with minerals.

Determination of macronutrient profile and energy composition in human milk via Mid-Infrared Spectrometer Analysis: An experimental study.

JPEN J Parenter Enteral Nutr

March 2025

2nd Neonatal Department and Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, Faculty of Medicine, "Papageorgiou" General Hospital of Thessaloniki, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Thessaloniki, Greece.

Background: To study the effect of specific maternal and neonatal variables on the macronutrients and energy composition of expressed human milk samples.

Methods: A prospective study was conducted including 296 samples of human milk delivered from 201 participant mothers. Human milk was analyzed using Mid-Infrared Spectrometer Analysis.

Many mothers are unable to exclusively breastfeed for several reasons. Other mammalian milks should be explored as human milk supplements. Pigs and humans are physiologically similar.
