OLIGOSACCHARIDE MIXTURE

摘要

The invention relates to an oligosaccharide mixture based on oligosaccharides produced from one or several animal milks and which are composed of two or more monosaccharide units. Said oligosaccharide mixture is characterized in that it comprises at least two oligosaccharide fractions which are each composed of at least two different oligosaccharides. The invention is further cahracterized in that lactose does not pertain thereto and the total spectrum of the oligosaccharides present in the oligosaccharide mixture differs from those present in animal milk or animal milks, wherefrom the oligosaccharide fractions are extracted and that a) if said oligosaccharides are extracted from only one animal milk, the proportion of neutral oligosaccharides to acidic oligosaccharides is 90 -60: 10 - 40 weight %, or b) if said oligosaccharides are extracted from at least two animal milks, the oligosaccharides extracted from two different animal milks each make up 10 weight % of the total amount of oligosaccharides present in the oligosaccharide mixture. The oligosaccharide mixture according to the invention approximates to human milk with respect to its positive properties and in particular its anti-infective activity.
