ABSTRACT

Breast milk is a complete food, containing all the nutrients necessary for the development, growth and maturation of the child during the months following birth. The remarkable technological progress made has allowed the development of milk formulas, most often from cow's milk. Cow's milk protein allergy (CMLA) is the most common food allergy in early childhood and is the cause of many publications. Indeed, it represents the fourth food allergy in children behind eggs, peanuts and fish; and is responsible for 12.6% of the child's food allergies. The prevalence of APLV is in the order of 2 to 3% depending on the age of the populations and the diagnostic criteria. The aim of this work is to evaluate the effects of aninfant milk marketed in Benin via an animal model. A total of 6 rats were divided into 2 batchs of 3, the control group and the batch submitted to the infant milk diet. The milk was administered at the amount of 1ml per day/kg of body weight. The rats were fed over a period of 14 days. According to our results, there was a significant change, increased blood glucose (0.54 ± 0.19) and urea (0.63 ± 0.14) with a risk of kidney damage. IgE results showed allergy (3.44 ± 0.41) in rats fed infant formula. Milk impacted the immunity of our rats.

Keywords: breast milk, infant formula, LPA, diversification, Benin.
