Regional variations in human milk oligosaccharides in Vietnam suggest FucTx activity besides FucT2 and FucT3 [PDF]
, 2018 Breastfeeding is the normal way of providing young infants with the nutrients they need for healthy growth and development (WHO). Human milk oligosaccharides (hMOS) constitute a highly important class of nutrients that are attracting strong attention in ...

Human milk oligosaccharides – the plot thickens [PDF]
British Journal of Nutrition, 2008 Human milk is a complex physiological fluid that provides nutrients as well as bioactive factors for the infant(1). A distinctive property of human milk among all other species is its remarkable content and structural diversity of oligosaccharides(2–4).

Neutral oligosaccharide content of preterm human milk [PDF]
British Journal of Nutrition, 1999 Human milk oligosaccharides are known to play a role in protection against certain infectious diseases. Previous reports indicate that the content of human milk oligosaccharides varies widely among individuals at term but such information on preterm milk is lacking.

Structure-Function Relationships of Human Milk Oligosaccharides [PDF]
Advances in Nutrition, 2012 Human milk contains more than a hundred structurally distinct oligosaccharides. In this review, we provide examples of how the structural characteristics of these human milk oligosaccharides (HMO) determine functionality. Specific α1-2-fucosylated HMO have been shown to serve as antiadhesive antimicrobials to protect the breast-fed infant against ...
