HMA – Human Milk Analyser

With Human Milk Analyzer it is possible to analyse breast milk for its content of:

• Fat
• Proteins
• Carbohydrates
• Energy

There is a crying need for analysing breast milk in the neonatal hospital departments. This is especially true given that premature babies feel best with uniform and stable nutrition. This is the so called individualised nutrition, which requires knowledge of the milk nutritional composition.

With only one sample of 1-3 ml, Miris analysis instruments can produce results in a fast, reliable and patient-centred analysis of breast milk at a low cost. Miris cooperates with leading researchers within neonatal medicine to further develop the methods for analysing breast milk.

Miris analysis instruments can also be used for analysis and control of the donated and stored milk in hospitals and milk banks. The analyses can lead to increased information about the nutritional content of breast milk thus improving the neonatal department care of premature babies.
