General description

Human milk and colostrum contain some 200 different HMOs (human milk oligosaccharides). They are formed of combinations of glucose, N-acetylglucosamine, galactose (Gal), fucose (Fuc), and N-acetylneuraminic acid (sialic acid), with a lactose unit at the reducing end. HMOs are of great interest for baby formula production and as potential drug treatments for adult diseases. 3-Fucosyllactose is a neutral HMO. Similarly to other HMOs, 3-fucosyllactose is not digested by humans and acts as a prebiotic, which facilitates the growth of healthy bacteria in the gut.
