Embodiment 1
[0058] Example 1: Collection and Analysis of Human Milk Permeate
[0059] Human milk was collected from screened donors throughout the United States and stored at -20°C for up to 12 months. Pooled donor human milk was processed and analyzed for oligosaccharide composition on multiple samples. A pool from 20-50 donors was used to generate the human milk fortifier composition described in application U.S.S.N. 11 / 947,580.
[0060] Prior to processing, a sample of the initially pooled donor milk was set aside for analysis (sample 49 in Table III). The combined milk is screened, filtered, heat treated, separated into skim milk and milk fat, and the skim milk is ultrafiltered. The filtrate composition, a portion of the permeate, was set aside for analysis (sample 53 in Table IV). The skim milk is mixed with the cream and pasteurized. A portion of the final product batch was set aside for analysis (samples 42, 48, and 54 in Tables I, II, and V, respectively).
[0061] Each mil...

[0085] Example 2: Oligosaccharide profiles of pooled permeate samples
[0086] Six pooled permeate samples were analyzed for specific oligosaccharide content (Table VI). Each pooled permeate sample was derived from pooled milk received from multiple donors by the method discussed in Example 1 above. Collected samples of the permeate were analyzed by mass spectrometry by the method described in Example 1 above to detect the presence (1) or absence (0) of the specific oligosaccharides indicated. Oligosaccharides are represented in Table VI by their mass / charge ratios.
[0087] Table VI
[0088]
[0089] 1 = Oligosaccharides present in the sample
[0090] 0 = No oligosaccharides detected in the sample
[0091] It appears that although there is overlap between the samples with respect to some oligosaccharides (ie oligosaccharides 732, 878, 1097, 1243 and 1389 are present in all six samples), there are also Many of the oligosaccharides in (ie, oligosaccharide 935 were p...
Embodiment 3
[0092] Example 3: Application of Permeate Composition
[0093] As discussed above, the inventors believe that human milk permeate compositions from pooled milk can provide a wide variety of nutritional and immunological benefits because they are a source of a greater variety of oligosaccharides than are found in individual breast milk . They can also contain various types of peptides and other beneficial small molecules.
[0094] The isolated human milk permeate composition will be administered to infants (both preterm and term infants) to promote their proper gut flora, ameliorate and / or eliminate infections. The study will investigate infants divided into 5 arms (arms), each arm consisting of infants who receive:
[0095] 1. Breast milk fortifier
[0096] 2. Milk plus permeate
[0097] 3. Milk plus Bifidobacterium strain 1
[0098] 4. Milk plus Bifidobacterium strain 2
[0099] 5. Milk plus fructo-oligosaccharides from non-dairy sources
[0100] The composition of t...
