Abstract: The invention relates to a method of preparing a whey-derived composition enriched with respect to whey phospholipids by membrane filtration, and preferably also enriched with respect to other membrane components from whey. The membrane filtration is furthermore followed by a special microfiltration-based germ filtration which the inventors have found to be efficient for reducing the microbial content of the whey-derived composition while keeping nutritionally important components in the whey-derived composition. The invention furthermore relates to the whey-derived composition as such, use of the whey-derived composition as in ingredient in nutritional products, and to nutritional products comprising the whey-derived composition.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of preparing a whey-derived composition enriched in whey phospholipids and osteopontin (OPN) by membrane filtration, and preferably also enriched in other membrane components from whey. The invention furthermore relates to the whey-derived composition as such, use of the whey-derived composition for increasing the content of OPN in nutritional products, and to nutritional products comprising the whey-derived composition.

Abstract: The present invention pertains to methods of producing cholesterol-enriched milk lipid compositions suitable for infant nutrition cholesterol milk by membrane-based fractionation of dairy based whey, to the cholesterol-enriched milk lipid compositions as such, and to their uses as food ingredients.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a bioactive sweet whey protein concentrate or composition for increasing e.g. cognitive functions particularly in young mammals such as pre-term or term infants, toddlers, children or young adults. The present invention further disclose a new concept for large-scale industrial production method of bioactive whey protein concentrates or compositions by use of mild heat treatment and pressure driven membrane separation.

Abstract: A method of forming a flow restriction in a fluid communication system is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of providing a flow restricting section having a cross sectional area and a length, measuring the flow resistivity of the flow restricting section, and modifying the cross sectional area and/or the length of the flow restricting section until a desired flow resistivity of the flow restricting section is obtained. The method provides the possibility of forming a flow restriction in an easy and cost effective manner, and to subsequently adjust the flow resistivity of the flow restriction, thereby obtaining an accurate flow resistivity.
