Human milk is the first food that the newborn receives and provides all the nutrients necessary for its growth. In order to feed children with breastfeeding problems, Human Milk Banks (BLH) were implemented, which conserve this food through pasteurization and freezing processes. Because human milk is very perishable, this work will present some results obtained on spray drying, high hydrostatic pressures, and UV radiation in human milk, in order to preserve and avoid loss of nutrients in this food, as well as offer a new alternative to the BLH for its conservation.
Learning Objectives:
Objective 1: Describe alternative methods for the conservation of human milk.
Objective 2: Discuss relevant information on the spray drying technology to transform the milk stored in the Human Milk Banks into powder.
Objective 3: List researchers in the field who are interested in the future collaborations.
