简要总结
The specific objectives of this study are to evaluate the effects of bovine milk osteopontin added to infant formula on infant growth, health and immune functions.
详细描述
Breast-fed infants will be used as a reference group and formula-fed infants will be fed control formula or the same formula supplemented with Osteopontin at a concentration 50% or 100% of that of breast milk. The hypothesis is that supplementation of bovine milk Osteopontin in infant formula will have positive effects on infant growth, health and immune functions.
