Title of the PhD project

"Pilot study to evaluate the effects of an innovative dairy product enriched with

bioactive compounds derived from milk on the health status of patients with

gestational diabetes".

My research activity

I collaborated with Dairy Inalpi company and I supported the research team to create a low-sugar, high-protein, white yogurt enriched with Lactoferrin. Our work started from the choice of milk, the type of lactic ferment and the amount of lactoferrin to be added to the yogurt, by assessing the available literature and the recommendations of the European Food Safety Authority. In particular, as a nutritionist, I collaborate to define the nutritional and qualitative properties of the yogurt, determining the appropriate final amount of sugars, fats and proteins. I followed the entire production process, from the arrival of the milk to the final definition of the yogurt for the study, including the step of ultrafiltration of the milk, thanks to which the protein part of the milk, called retentate, was obtained. The retentate was then used to enrich our yogurt with proteins.

We formulated two recipes of the yogurt, one yogurt derived from high-quality cow's milk enriched with lactoferrin during the manufacturing process and the same yogurt, but without Lactoferrin; Both yogurts have the same color, flavor, and texture.

Afterwards, I drafted the study protocol; I submitted this study to the hospital ethics committee in October 2022 and I'm now waiting for their approval in order to start the trial. This will be the work for the next two years of my PhD.
