Claims16
A synthetic pediatric formula comprising from about 0.01 mg/mL to about 10 mg/mL of a human milk oligosaccharide selected from the group consisting of 3′-sialyllactose, 6′-sialyllactose, sialic acid, lacto-N-neotetraose, and combinations thereof, and from about 40 mg/L to about 320 mg/L of a nucleotide.
A synthetic pediatric formula comprising from about 0.01 mg/mL to about 10 mg/mL of a human milk oligosaccharide mixture and from about 40 mg/L to about 320 mg/L of a nucleotide;
- wherein the human milk oligosaccharide mixture comprises about 40 wt % 6′-sialyllactose, about 10 wt % 3′-sialyllactose, and about 50 wt % sialic acid;
- and
- wherein the nucleotide comprises cytidine 5′-monophosphate in a concentration of about 29-39 mg/L, uridine 5′-monophosphate in a concentration of about 15-20 mg/L, adenosine 5′-monophosphate in a concentration of about 10-15 mg/L, and guanosine 5′-monophosphate in a concentration of about 14-20 mg/L.
