Improving Pasteurization to Preserve the Biological Components of Donated Human Milk

Donor human milk (DHM) in human milk banks (HMB) is routinely subjected to heat treatment to ensure microbiological security, most guidelines recommending a temperature of 62. 5 degrees C for 30 min. However, this procedure negatively impacts on milk quality, due to the destruction of biological com...

There is also clear evidence that bacterial and viral contamination in human milk can be effectively destroyed by temperatures lower than that currently recommended (62.5 degrees C).
