Cu,Zn- and Mn-Superoxide Dismutase Concentration in Human Colostrum and Mature Milk

Abstract: Superoxide dismutase (SOD, BC 1.15.1.1) catalyses the dismutation of the superoxide anion and is a metalloenzyme ubiquitous to living organisms. The enzyme is also contained in bovine milk and has been suggsted to diminish the oxidative problems associated with the superoxide anion. The present study is an attempt to determine the concentration of SOD in human colostrum and in mature milk to make a comparison with the values in bovine milk and human blood. Human colostrum and mature milk samples were respectiv… Show more

“…The concentration of SOD in bovine milk is approximately 100 times lower than in bovine blood (Hoolbrook and Hicks 1978). In human milk it is 2.0–2.3 times higher than in bovine milk (Kiyosawa et al. 1993).…”

“…The enzyme in milk serum has the same specific activity, molecular weight and electrophoretic properties as bovine erythrocyte Cu/Zn-SOD (Hill, 1975;Asada, 1976;Korycka-Dahl et al 1979). In human milk the activity of Mn-SOD has also been identified (Kiyosawa et al 1993).…”

“…Although Holbrook and Hicks (15) described a procedure for the isolation of SOD from milk, the purpose of their study was one of characterization rather than efficient exploitation of the technique for preparative purposes. To date, most work on preparative recovery of SOD has used blood as the source material, primarily owing to the several‐hundred‐fold higher concentration of the enzyme in this feedstock (10, 13, 16).…”
