AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The composition effectively increases NK cell activity and proliferation, enhancing immune defense against viral infections and supporting intestinal health, making it suitable for infant nutrition and prevention of viral infections.

Problems solved by technology

Because of their complex and polymorphic structure, large-scale synthesis is complicated.
It is therefore not yet technically and economically feasible to prepare infant nutrition with an NDO composition identical to human milk.

[0060]Materials and Methods

[0061]6-8 Weeks old female C57BL / 6 mice (Charles River) received semi-purified AIN-93G-based diets (Research Diet Service, Wijk bij Duurstede, the Netherlands), comprising

[0062]1) 2 wt % beta-galacto-oligosaccharide (GOS; source Vivinal GOS, Borculo Domo), fructo-oligosaccharide (FOS; source RaftilineHP, Orafti) and galacturonic acid oligosaccharide (Source AOS) in a 9:1:1.1 ratio. AOS are produced from pectin (Südzucker AG, Mannheim, Germany), with a DP of 1-20. It consists of approximately 75% galacturonic acid oligomers, based on total weight;

[0063]2) 1 wt % lactoneotetraose (LNnT),

[0064]3) 1 wt % 3′-sialyl lactose (3′-SL), or

[0065]4) 1 wt % 2′-fucosyllactose (2′-FL).

[0066]All groups were compared to the unsupplemented control diet. Dietary supplementation started 14 days before the first vaccination and lasted until the end of the experiment, 31 days after the first vaccination.

[0067]Vaccination experiments were performed using Influvac (Solvay Pharmac...

[0076]Infant formula for stimulating NK cell activity comprising per 100 ml (13.9 dry weight):

[0077]1.4 g protein (whey and casein)

[0078]7.3 g digestible carbohydrates (including lactose)

[0079]3.6 g fat (vegetable fat, fish oil)

[0080]0.8 g non-digestible oligosaccharides of which 80 mg 2′-fucosyllactose and 640 mg beta-galacto-oligosaccharides, and 80 mg fructo-oligosaccharides

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application is a Continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 13 / 383,822, filed Mar. 28, 2012, which is the U.S. National Stage Application of PCT / NL2010 / 50447, filed Jul. 12, 2010, which claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 61 / 256,453, filed Oct. 30, 2009, and European Patent Application No. 09165485.5, filed Jul. 15, 2009, all of which are incorporated by reference in their entirety.FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0002]The present invention relates to infant nutrition with non-digestible oligosaccharides, in particular to the use thereof for stimulating the immune system.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]Human milk fed infants have a lower incidence of infections, including viral infections, than formula fed infants. Many components in human milk, including immunoglobulins (such as IgA), interleukin (IL)-1, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, interferon-γ (IFN-γ), immunocompetent cells, transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β), lacto...
