Antioxidant Potential, Nutrition, and Metabolomic Analysis of the Amino Acid Content of Infant Formula Milk for 7–12 Months and Predicted Benefits in Indonesia

Abstract

The research aims to analyze the calcium (Ca), protein, and various amino acids contained in various samples of formula milk in circulation and given to babies as an alternative or additional nutrition. Samples of formula milk aged 7–12 months used in the research were of 4 types, coded A, B, C, and D. Calcium (Ca) content analysis was used using the Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AAS) instrument; total protein was determined using the Kjeldahl method; and metabolomic analysis of amino acids were determined using a High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) instrument. The calcium content of milk samples was 4.38 ± 0.03 mg/g (code A), 4.63 ± 0.03 mg/g (code B), 4.92 ± 0.08 mg/g (code C), and 5.48 ± 0.06 mg/g (code D); total protein content was 0.50 ± 0.01 mg/g (code A), 0.50 ± 0.03 mg/g (code B), 0.51 ± 0.01 mg/g (code C), and 0.75 ± 0.00 mg/g (code D); as well as the metabolomic of amino acid content contained in milk samples with code B (15 types), code D (13 types), and codes A and C have the same number of amino acid types (9 types).The research sample formula for milk contains important nutrients, including calcium, protein, and various metabolomic amino acids, which are important for the growth and development of babies aged 7–12 months.
