Human milk is generally regarded as the best choice for infant feeding. Human milk fat (HMF) is one of the most complex natural lipids, with a unique fatty acid composition and distribution and complex lipid composition. Lipid intake in infants not only affects their energy intake but also affects their metabolic mode and overall development. Infant formula is the best substitute for human milk when breastfeeding is not possible. As the main energy source in infant formula, human milk fat substitutes (HMFSs) should have a composition similar to that of HMF in order to meet the nutritional needs of infant growth and development. At present, HMFS preparation mainly focuses on the simulation of fatty acid composition, the application of structured lipids and the addition of milk fat globule membrane (MFGM) supplements. This paper first reviews the composition and structure of HMF, and then the preparation development of structured lipids and MFGM supplements are summarized. Additionally, the evaluation and regulation of HMFSs in infant formula are also presented.
母乳通常被认为是婴儿喂养的最佳选择。人乳脂肪(HMF)是最复杂的天然脂质之一,具有独特的脂肪酸组成和分布以及复杂的脂质成分。婴儿的脂质摄入不仅影响其能量摄入,还影响其代谢模式和整体发育。当无法进行母乳喂养时,婴儿配方奶粉是母乳的最佳替代品。作为婴儿配方奶粉中的主要能量来源,人乳脂肪替代品(HMFSs)应具有与人乳脂肪相似的组成,以满足婴儿生长发育的营养需求。目前,HMFS的制备主要集中在脂肪酸组成的模拟、结构化脂质的应用以及乳脂肪球膜(MFGM)补充剂的添加。本文首先综述了HMF的组成和结构,然后总结了结构化脂质和MFGM补充剂的制备进展。此外,还介绍了婴儿配方奶粉中HMFSs的评价和监管。
