  • Milk protein mixture for promoting growth of animal cells or treating wounds and method of making and methods employing the mixture
    Patent number: 5866418
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a milk protein mixture useful for promoting growth of animal cells, for treating a surface wound, or for treating a gastrointestinal injury, disease, or ulcer, methods for preparing the milk protein mixture and methods employing the milk protein mixture. The milk protein mixture is prepared from a milk product such as cheese whey employing a cation exchange resin suitable for absorbing the milk protein mixture, filtering, and concentrating the product of cation exchange. The milk protein mixture for promoting growth of animal cells also includes a liquid culture medium. The milk protein mixture for treating a surface wound or for treating a gastrointestinal injury, disease, or ulcer also includes a pharmaceutically or veterinarily acceptable diluent, carrier, or excipient.
