Influence of infant milk formula processing on protein digestion and gut barrier health in vitro and in vivo
Thermal treatment is essential during infant milk formula (IMF) processing to produce a safe product. However, high thermal loads during IMF processing denature native milk proteins, increase protein aggregation and promote the Maillard reaction, with the generation of advanced glycation end …

A study of iron nutrition and immunity in infancy
… anaemia of 34% in healthy 1-year old term infants who had ready access to a municipal health clinic where iron fortified milk formula is sold at subsidized prices. The consequences of iron deficiency extend beyond anaemia- to involve all organ systems including the immune system. Since …

Improving the Innovation Performance of Ireland’s Dairy Industry: An Innovation Systems Approach
… selected dairy products, viz. butter, cheese and infant milk formula over the time period 2000-2010, using international trade data. The analysis uses a framework, which was developed in Kaplinsky and Readman (2005), to assess product and process upgrading and downgrading as a measure of relative …

Shining light on food microbiology; applications of luciferase-tagged microorganisms in the food industry
… Cronobacter sakazakii in reconstituted infant milk formula, in realtime. The second aim was to investigate a bioluminescent-based early warning system for starter culture disruption by bacteriophages and antibiotic residues. The third of this thesis was to examine the use of a …

Investigation of growth and stress tolerance characteristics of Cronobacter spp.
… is associated with the ingestion of contaminated infant milk formula (IMF), causing necrotizing enterocolitis, sepsis and meningitis in neonatal infants. The work presented in this thesis involved the investigation and characterisation of a bank of Cronobacter strains for their ability to tolerate …

Strategies for fortifying dairy protein-based formulated nutritional products with calcium
… for fortifying liquid dairy protein-based formulated nutritional products with Ca. The interactions between dairy proteins, specifically whey protein concentrate ingredients enriched in alpha-lactalbumin (LAC) and Ca, in different physical forms (soluble and insoluble), were systematically …

Bioengineering strategies to improve functional qualities of nisin
… acid significantly controlled C. sakazakii in infant milk formula. It is noteworthy that while nisin is generally associated with Gram positive targets, upon combination with plant essential oils the spectrum of inhibition was broadened to Gram negative targets.

Influence of dietary factors on the macro and micro-composition of bovine milk for use in protein ingredient powder manufacture
… the relative differences in the composition of milk from grass-fed and non-grass-fed cows and robust methods for verifying these labelling claims. The “Grass-fed Standard” established by Bord Bia in 2020 is the first scientifically-backed standard in use internationally, which is founded on the …

The impact of genetic variation on functional, technological and digestive properties of β-lactoglobulin
Genetic variations of milk proteins have been studied since their discovery in 1946. Since then, over 50 variants have been found among the four caseins (αs1-, αs2-, β-, and κ-casein) and the two main whey proteins, β-lactoglobulin (β-lg) and α-lactalbumin. In the early 1990’s, it was speculated …
