Abstract

Bovine milk fat is important in aspects of nutrition, human health and milk products technology. Milk fat is an basic component of human’s diet, but its chemical composition and secretion is still not fully understood. Many scientific experiments related to fat secretion and lipogenesis were conducted on human, mouse and goat models. Most studies are currently concentrating on milk fatty acids (FA) profiles and milk fat globules (MFGs) structure and functions. The knowledge broadening in this area would allow to modify fat chemical composition into positive nutritional aspect and to find new bioactive compounds.
