description | Whey proteins, the most abundant proteins in human milk (HM), play a vital role in the growth and development of infants. This review first elaborates on the main components of HM whey proteins, including various proteins with specific functions, and details the functions of these proteins in terms of infant nutrition, immunity, as well as growth and development. Secondly, it analyzes factors that affect HM whey proteins, such as maternal differences, dietary habits, and geographical differences. Thirdly, it discusses detection methods for HM whey proteins, covering the principles, advantages, and limitations of different technical means. Finally, it compares whey proteins from different milk sources, highlighting their differences in composition, function, and characteristics. This review aims to comprehensively present the current research status of HM whey protein, provide a scientific basis for maternal and infant health, and contribute to optimizing infant feeding strategies and the research and development of related products. |
