Storage of human milk in unfrozen state under high pressure-subzero temperature conditions - new method of preservation

The objective of the project is to create a scientific basis for developing an alternative procedure for preservation and storage of human milk (HM) that will minimize the loss of nutrients and biologically active components. This goal will be achieved by designing and building a prototype of a device for generating pressure at subzero temperature, designed for samples with a volume of 100-150 mL (average volume of milk donated to banks) and determining the changes of selected nutrients and biologically active components and the degree of microbiota inactivation in HM during storage at subzero temperature and high pressure in the conditions when the water remain unfrozen.
