TATURA-BIO® Lactoferrin is a freeze-dried protein purified directly from premium quality, fresh milk of Australian dairy cows. It has a high affinity for iron and, therefore, is an excellent inhibitor of a wide range of microorganisms that require iron for growth. As well as being necessary for normal growth of intestinal cells, lactoferrin functions as an antioxidant in iron mediated oxidation reactions and as an anti-inflammatory agent. It also may play an important role in the transport of iron across the duodenal mucosa.

TATURA uses advanced ion-exchange technology producing lactoferrin that is of the highest purity and has the best biological activity of any produced in the world. TATURA-BIO® Lactoferrin is manufactured for use in a range of applications including infant formulas, adult nutritional powders and drinks, yoghurts and drinking yoghurts and sports formulations.

TATURA-BIO® Lactoferrin is a pale pink free floating powder containing a minimum of 95% of the protein as lactoferrin.
