  • Presented are guidelines for the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of cow's milk protein allergy (CMPA) which is the most common food allergy in infants. It manifests through a variety of symptoms that place a burden on both the infant and their caregivers. The guidelines were formulated by evaluation of existing evidence-based guidelines, literature evidence and expert clinical experience. The guidelines set out practical recommendations and include algorithms for the prevention and treatment of CMPA. For infants at risk of allergy, appropriate prevention diets are suggested. Breastfeeding is the best method for prevention; however, a partially hydrolyzed formula should be used in infants unable to be breastfed. In infants with suspected CMPA, guidelines are presented for the appropriate diagnostic workup and subsequent appropriate elimination diet for treatment. Exclusive breastfeeding and maternal dietary allergen avoidance are the best treatment. In infants not exclusively breastfed, an extensively hydrolyzed formula should be used with amino acid formula recommended if the symptoms are life-threatening or do not resolve after extensively hydrolyzed formula. Adherence to these guidelines should assist healthcare practitioners in optimizing their approach to the management of CMPA and decrease the burden on infants and their caregivers.

  • In Korea, the concerns about the consumption of soy-based infant formulas have received considerable public attention. In has been known that the n-3/n-6 ratio of soy has a beneficial effect on the health. This study was conducted to investigate whether the soy-based infant formula has an effect on the composition of fatty acids in erythrocytes with regard to the plasma lipid levels in full-term infants. The infants who were delivered at Kyung Hee Medical Center were recruited. Experimental groups were the breast milk group(n=17), soy-based infant formula group(n=12) and casein-based infant formula group(n=19). Anthrophometic and dietary assessments were performed and the composition of RBC fatty acids and blood lipid levels were measured. The body weight, length, chest circumference and head circumference of the subjects were normal growth range showing no significant difference among the experimental groups. The ratio of n-3/n-6 ratio in breast milk, soy-based infant formula and casein-based infant formula were 0.11, 0.14 and 0.13, respectively. N-3/n-6 ratio of the subjects erythrocyte fatty acids for each groups were 0.18, 0.21 and 0.17, respectively. Most of the fatty acids of erythrocyte were not significantly different among the three experimental groups. The blood lipid levels of each experimental group were normal range. The total lipid level of casein-based formula group was higher than that of other experimental groups and LDL-cholesterol level of soy-based formula group was the lowest among the three groups.

  • The concentrations of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) in twelve Korean mothers' milk samples collected in October 2006 and four infant formula samples produced by Korean manufacturers were determined. CLA detected from both mothers' milk and infant formula samples was only cis-9, trans-11 CLA isomer. The amount of cis-9, trans-11 CLA in Korean mothers' milk (100 mL) ranged from 4.32 to 10.12 mg ($6.27{\pm}0.28\;mg$). Infant formula (13 g), which is the manufacturers' recommended amount to make up 100 mL with water, contained cis-9, trans-11 CLA isomer in amounts ranging from 1.61 to 2.97 mg ($2.27{\pm}0.31\;mg$).

  • Recently, infant formula products made of caprine milk have gained popularity, mainly because the nutritional composition of caprine milk is similar to that of human milk. In addition, caprine milk is considered to be better than bovine milk in terms of nutrient composition and easier digestion. Compared to bovine milk, caprine milk contains more ${\beta}$-casein, but less ${\alpha}$S1-casein. While the lactose concentration of both bovine and caprine milk is almost the same, a content of total oligosaccharides in caprine milk was approximately five to eight times higher than that in bovine milk. However, as the dairy goat industry in Korea is in a nascent stage of milk production and further processing, many nutritional advantages of caprine milk over bovine milk are not fully conveyed to general consumers. It is recommended that scientific research regarding the nutritional benefits of caprine milk needs to be conducted urgently, owing to the increasing domestic sales of infant formula products made of caprine milk.

  • Since goat milk infant formula has been increased, it is expected that goat milk consumption would be increased. This review summarizes the characteristics of goat milk especially, milk fat, somatic cell count, and goaty flavor. Average milk fat content for one year of twelve goat milk farms was 3.6%, but $2.9{\sim}3.1%$ in summer, which means summer goat milk could not meet the 'Processing and Ingredient Standard for Animal Products'. More than 3.2% for goat milk fat content in 'Processing and Ingredient Standard for Animal Products' should be amended. In addition to, hygienic standard for goat milk should be newly established because goat milk has naturally higher somatic cell count with noninfectious factors. It is thought that 6-trans nonenal and some branched fatty acids are responsible for the goaty flavor. It is necessary to minimize goaty flavor from farm to table because goaty flavor is the most important factor for the promotion of goat milk industry.

  • In Oriental medicine, So-gal(消渴) is similar to Diabetes Mellitus in the symptoms. In the medical treatment of So-gal(消渴), one kind of herb medicine is recorded in ancent medicine literatures. That herb medicine is a juice of vegetable drunken with herb medicine of So-gal(消渴). Milk(牛乳汁), human milk(人乳汁), gam-ja-jup(甘蔗汁), wo-jul-jup(藕節汁), li-jup(梨汁), sang-gang-jup(生薑汁) etc. is that. In that juices, Milk(牛乳汁), human milk(人乳汁), gam-ja-jup(甘蔗汁), wo-jul-jup(藕節汁), li-jup(梨汁) have sweety tastes, and cold nature. So they cure So-gal(消渴) come from dry and hot nature. Sang-gang-jup(生薑汁) is different with others in the taste and nature that sweety and hot taste and hot nature. Sang-gang-jup(生薑汁) cure the sequela of So-gal(消渴) by his hot nature. We think In Diabetes Mellitus, that juice can be used by drink for the treatment of diet because of simility between So-gal(消渴) and DM.

  • The effects of different discharge packs on the rate of breast-feeding practice were investigated in 2, 4 and 8 postpartal weeks. The subjects were those who have made delivery at Chonnam University Hospital from Jan to Feb 1994. They were divided into three groups by the discharge pack provided at the nursery room : the one group was given with formula discharge pack, another with breast-feeding discharge pack and the other nothing. The formula discharge pack contained formula samples, a feeding bottle and a pamphlet prepared by a formula company, and breast-feeding discharge pack contained a manual pump and a pamphlet made by Korean Nurses Association. Following results were obtained : 1. Different discharge packs significantly affected the rate of breast-feeding practice at 2 week postpartum, while not at 4 and 8 week postpartum. 2. At 2 week postpartum, the rate of breast-feeding practice was significantly higher in the group given with breast-feeding discharge pak than in that given with formula discharge pack. It was also significantly higher in the group given with breast-feeding discharge pack compared with the group given nothing. The breast feeding rate, however, did not significantly differ between the formula discharge pack group and the group given nothing. 3. The most common cause for the artificial feeding was 'lacking breast milk'. The most common cause to select a specific brand of formula milk was 'the same as in the nursery room'. In conclusion, it is suggested that encouraging mothers to perform breast feeding and providing them with a breast-feeding discharge pack instead of a formula pack at the nursery room are helpful in promoting the breast-feeding.

  • This paper covers algorithms for the management of regurgitation, constipation and infantile colic in infants. Anti-regurgitation formula may be considered in infants with troublesome regurgitation, while diagnostic investigations or drug therapy are not indicated in the absence of warning signs. Although probiotics have shown some positive evidence for the management of functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGIDs), the evidence is not strong enough to make a recommendation. A partially hydrolyzed infant formula with prebiotics and ${\beta}$-palmitate may be considered as a dietary intervention for functional constipation in formula fed infants. Lactulose has been shown to be effective and safe in infants younger than 6 months that are constipated. Macrogol (polyethylene glycol, PEG) is not approved for use in infants less than 6 months of age. However, PEG is preferred over lactulose in infants >6 months of age. Limited data suggests that infant formula with a partial hydrolysate, galacto-oligosaccharides/fructo-oligosaccharides, added ${\beta}$-palmitate may be of benefit in reducing infantile colic in formula fed infants in cases where cow's milk protein allergy (CMPA) is not suspected. Evidence suggests that the use of extensively hydrolyzed infant formula for a formula-fed baby and a cow's milk free diet for a breastfeeding mother may be beneficial to decrease infantile colic if CMPA is suspected. None of the FGIDs is a reason to stop breastfeeding.

  • The propose of this study was to investigate taurine intake in formula-fed and breast-fed infants and to estimate the level of taurine of blood and urine in order to determine the requirement of taurine intake in infants. These results will be useful to suggest the guideline of requirement of taurine intake and may contribute toward the proper use of breast milk substitutes. Experimental groups were breast-fed infants (n=10) and formula-fed infants (n=10) of 20 normal delivery infants in general hospital. This study was longitudinal study from birth up to 16weeks (0 week, 4 weeks, 8 weeks, 12 weeks, 16 weeks). The items of test were anthropometry(weight, height, head circumference, chest circumference), intake of taurine, taurine level of blood and urine in breast-fed and formula-fed infants. There were no significant differences between breast-fed and formula-fed infants in weight, height, head and chest circumference. There is a need for future studies of exclusive infants with larger samples to determine which growth pattern should be considered as the norm. Taurine concentration of plasma and urine did not differ between breast-fed and formula-fed infants. Taurine intake recommendations for infants is about 30mg/day from this study. This data will be useful for production of human-like formula milk and suggestion of an index of selection of a consumer in taurine.
