Buffalo (Bubalus bubilis) colostrum and milk fat globule membrane fractions are potent antioxidants
Abstract:Colostrum is the first liquid food for the new born baby, secreted after the parturition. After few days of maturation the colostrum turns to milk. The cream or fat fraction of milk consists of fat droplets composed primarily of triacylglycerols that are secreted from the apical surface of the mammary cells surrounded by cellular thin membranes membrane, the fat globule membrane (FGM), formed by proteins which have been suggested to be cholesterolemia-lowering factors, inhibitors of cancer cell growth, vitamin… Show more
