AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing infant formula production methods struggle to retain characteristic flavor compounds derived from cow's milk grown in cold, high-altitude environments, especially breast milk-specific flavor compounds such as 1-octen-3-one and (E)-2-decenal. Furthermore, high-temperature sterilization results in the presence of large amounts of undesirable aldehydes, which negatively impacts infants' acceptance of the formula.

Method used

Using raw milk from high-altitude, cold-climate environments and a specific blend of oils, combined with low-temperature pasteurization, low-temperature concentration, and spray drying processes, and through partial homogenization and low-temperature DSI sterilization, a complete low-temperature processing protection mechanism is formed to preserve the characteristic flavor substances of breast milk.

Benefits of technology

The successful detection of breast milk characteristic flavor compounds 1-octen-3-one and (E)-2-decenal improved the product's compatibility with breast milk flavor, inhibited the formation of undesirable flavors, reduced the risk of oxidative deterioration, and achieved simultaneous optimization of flavor quality and nutritional characteristics.
