PBS Program Name:
ARC 18/19 Discovery
Grant Program:
Discovery Early Career Researcher Award
Grant Activity:
Milk mimicry: Self-assembly in complex lipid mixtures during digestion
Purpose:
This project aims to decipher the chemical complexity required to mimic the digestive behaviour of milk fats and to identify their influence on lipophilic nutrient activity during transit through the gut. The link between milk's complex fat composition and its nutrient delivery properties are unknown because the digestive colloidal structures that drive fat-soluble nutrient absorption are poorly understood. The project expects to identify which milk lipids are essential to milk’s role as nature’s nutrient delivery vehicle. It will also identify a universally-available nutrient delivery platform for resource-poor communities, and enhanced knowledge of lipid physical chemistry. The findings will promote greater interaction between the dairy and pharmaceutical industries, adding value to their respective products.
