California-based startup Yali Bio announced that it has produced the world’s first human milk fat from yeast through precise fermentation, aiming to closely mimic the nutritional values provided by human breast milk in baby formulas. This biotechnology venture has developed a fat known chemically as 1,3-dioleoyl-2-palmitoyl-glycerol, or OPO (Oleic-Palmitic-Oleic), naturally found in breast milk. OPO is a crucial component facilitating the absorption of nutrients for infant health.
