A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11903392B2) outlines a method for manufacturing a hypoallergenic nutritional composition suitable for infants. The method involves providing a partial hydrolysate of milk protein(s) through enzymatic treatment, clearing out specific aggregates from the partial hydrolysate that can trigger allergic reactions, and formulating the cleared partial hydrolysate into a hypoallergenic nutritional composition. The clearing process includes filtering the partial hydrolysate using a membrane or subjecting it to size exclusion chromatography to remove problematic aggregates.
The patent further details the selection of bovine milk proteins, concentrating the cleared partial hydrolysate through methods like spray-drying, and the specific size distribution of peptides in the partial hydrolysate. Additionally, the method includes formulating the hypoallergenic nutritional composition by adding essential nutrients like carbohydrates, lipids, vitamins, and minerals, along with specific ingredients like galacto oligosaccharides (GOS), human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs), and TGFß. The resulting hypoallergenic nutritional composition can be used to prevent or delay sensitization in infants at risk of developing cow's milk allergy (CMA), particularly those with a genetic predisposition or family history of CMA.
