There is a preference for using enteral bovine lactoferrin for preterm infants. Lactoferrin is a sialic acid-rich, iron-binding milk glycoprotein, known to have multifunctional health benefits, including its ability to modulate immune function and facilitate iron absorption, as well as its antibacterial and anti inflammatory actions. The study is an evaluation of the efficacy of enteral bovine lactoferrin on neurobehavioral performance in preterm infants.
