Lf has several potential biological functions: it improves the bioavailability of iron, is bacteriostatic (by sequestering iron and making it unavailable to intestinal Milk constituents 33 bacteria) and has antioxidant, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory and anti-carcinogenic activity. Human milk contains a very high level of Lf (Ϸ20% of total nitrogen) and therefore there is interest in fortifying bovine-milk-based infant formulas with Lf. e. it is cationic at the pH of milk, whereas most milk proteins are anionic, and it can be isolated on an industrial scale by adsorption on a cation-exchange resin.

Babcock and N. Gerber, long before comparable methods for proteins became available. Milk lipids are very complex chemically and exist as a unique emulsion. Milk lipids have been thoroughly studied and characterized (see Fox, 1983, 1995; Fox and McSweeney, 1998, 2006; and references therein). The level of fat in milk shows very large inter-species differences, ranging from Ϸ2% to Ͼ50% (see Fox and McSweeney, 1998). g. by animals in a cold environment, such as marine mammals or hibernating bears) this is achieved by increasing the fat content of the milk.

Although keto acids are also minor components, they are important flavor precursors because they are converted to highly flavored methyl ketones. The melting point of fatty acids increases progressively with molecular weight (MW), whereas solubility in water decreases. The melting point decreases with the introduction of double bonds and, for unsaturated fatty acids, the melting point of the cis isomer is lower than that of the trans isomer. Milk lipids are chemically similar to all other lipids but contain a very wide range of fatty acids (up to 400 fatty acids have been reported in milk lipids, although most of these are present at trace levels).
