3. Characteristic of societal impact

Determination of antioxidant properties and polyphenol content of herbal infusions: pink rockrose, Lebanese sage, milk thistle, moringa, calendula and dried cistus, basil, and oregano are very important for consumers.
The research project aims to determine the content of bisphenol A (BPA) in breast milk. Bisphenol A compound having a negative effect on the normal development of newborns, whose determination is necessary when taking breast milk at milk banks.
The research project aims to determine the content of oligosaccharides in goat's milk and breast milk. Oligosaccharides having a significant impact on the development of microbial flora, strengthening the immune system of newborns.

5. Justification of interdisciplinarity and breakhrough of the research

The analysis of antioxidant properties and polyphenol content of herbal infusions: purge, clematis, milk thistle, moringa, calendula and dried purge, basil and oregano is very important information for consumers.

Determining the content of bisphenol A (BPA) in breast milk and having a negative impact on the proper development of newborns is very important. Migration of bisphenol A from food packaging, and consequently its participation in the diet of pregnant women affects the development of the fetus and later on its content in breast milk of breastfeeding women. This examination should be mandatory when taking breast milk at milk banks.

Oligogosaccharides present in goat's milk and breast milk are referred to as 'immunosugars'. Their influence on the development of microbiological flora and strengthening of the immune system of newborns is emphasized. Analysis of their level in goat's milk will allow the isolation of oligosaccharides and the possibility of including preparations containing it in the diet of newborns that cannot be fed by mothers to strengthen their immunity.
