AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Current infant formulas rely on bovine milk proteins, which differ from human breast milk proteins, leading to metabolic stress and health disparities between breastfed and formula-fed infants due to the lack of immunomodulatory benefits from human secretory molecules like whey proteins.

Method used

Development of edible compositions containing recombinant human secretory proteins, such as lactoferrin, combined with human milk oligosaccharides, probiotics, and other nutrients to replicate the nutritional and immunomodulatory benefits of human breast milk.

Benefits of technology

Provides infants with the immunomodulatory and nutritional benefits of human breast milk, reducing metabolic stress and health disparities by using recombinant human secretory proteins in infant formulas.
