USO DE UN SUERO DE LECHE DULCE MODIFICADO Y UNA FORMULA PARA BEBES QUE CONTIENEN SUERO DE LECHE DULCE MODIFICADO PARA PROMOVER EL DESARROLLO POSNATAL DEL SISTEMA NERVIOSO CENTRAL INFANTIL Y LAS FUNCIONES COGNITIVAS RELACIONADAS.
The invention relates to modified sweet whey protein (MSWP) for promoting the establishment of healthy and normal cognitive function in young mammals. In particular, the invention relates to the use of MSWP for promoting development of the brain structures responsible for cognitive functions (e.g. cortex and its associated neural pathways) and/or to reverse retardation and/or to prevent retardation of the establishment of cognitive functions. Humans or animals and, in particular, a foetus, pre- term or term born infant, toddler or child or a young adult may benefit from the invention.

The present invention relates to a method for obtaining sugar and lignin fractions from lignocellulosic materials and to a method for producing fermentation products using the sugars obtained from the lignocellulose. In particular, the present invention relates to a method for improving the sugar yield in the enzymatic hydrolysate by introducing a pre-treatment step of hydrothermal hydrolysis with a delignification step using a cationic compound.La invención se refiere a una proteína modificada de suero de leche dulce (MSWP) para promover el establecimiento de funciones cognitivas saludables y normales en mamíferos jóvenes. Particularmente, la invención se refiere al uso de la MSWP para promover el desarrollo de las estructuras cerebrales responsables de las funciones cognitivas (p. ej., la corteza y sus
