Abstract:
Milk fat globule membrane (MFGM) is a thin, dense membrane that packages outside the milk fat droplets during mammary gland lactating.MFGM is mainly composed of phospholipids, sphingolipids and a variety of specific membrane proteins. In recent years, due to the potential health benefits of MFGM, it has become a hot spot for research. In this paper, the structure and composition , the role of the main components and their applications in infants, middle⁃aged and elderly population of MFGM are reviewed.
