Comparative Electrophoretic Analysis Between the Protein Content in Human and Donkey Milk Samples—A Study Covering the Long-Term Lactation Period

Human milk contains a wide variety of proteins, possessing antimicrobial and immunomodulatory activities, which are essential for normal infant growth. Over the past few years, the widespread interest in milk’s nutritional quality and its association with infant health care has led to scientific research on the composition of different milk types. In this study, the similarity between protein content in human and donkey milk during the ninth-month lactation period is estimated. Our results demonstrate that donkey milk may be a valid substitute for cow’s milk to supplement the nutrition of allergic children.
