DEVEL OF METHODS OF ANALYSIS OF HUMAN COLOSTRUM AND MILK

检测母乳中免疫成分的方法是非常重要的 需要用来评估这些组件的潜力 改善婴儿健康状况。这个项目的总体目标是 开发技术以准确、快速地分析浓度和 某些免疫蛋白与非蛋白氮的相互作用 母乳中的成分。 具体地说，他们将开发一组针对 母乳中几种公认的免疫因子和抗 寄主以前未被识别或测量到的亚种和复合体 防御因素。他们还将开发分离的方法， 低分子量硫的鉴定与定量 在人类乳汁中含有化合物。

Methods quantitating the immunologic components of human milk are greatly needed in order to evaluate these components with respect to potential improvements in infant health. The overall goal of this project is to develop techniques to accurately and rapidly analyze the concentrations and interactions of certain immunologic proteins and non-protein nitrogen components in human milk. Specifically, they will develop a panel of monoclonal antibodies against several of the recognized immunologic factors in human milk and against previously unrecognized or unmeasured subspecies and complexes of the host defense factors. They also will develop of methods for separation, identification, and quantification of low molecular weight sulfur containing compounds in human milk.
