Lactoferrin is a multifunctional protein that is found in milk and other bodily fluids, such as tears and saliva. It plays a crucial role in the immune system and has various biological activities. Lactoferrin is known for its ability to bind and transport iron, which helps regulate iron levels in the body and inhibit the growth of bacteria by depriving them of iron.

Lactoferrin is a multifunctional protein natively found in milk and other biological fluids like saliva and tears. It plays a critical role in supporting the immune system.
Its primary function is to bind and transport iron throughout the body. This process regulates systemic iron levels and actively inhibits bacterial growth by depriving pathogens of essential iron.
Lactoferrin is widely used in health care supplements, functional food production, cosmetic formulations, and other specialized wellness industries.
Our standard specification requires a protein content of ≥90%. Actual batch results consistently show a high conformity average of 95.68% protein content.
For smaller quantities (1kg), it is packaged in double plastic bags and an aluminum foil bag inside with an outer box. For bulk shipments of 10kg, 25kg, or more, it is packed inside protective drums or cartons.
Shipping via express air courier (DHL, FedEx, EMS, UPS) takes approximately 3-7 days. Heavy bulk orders shipped via sea freight take between 10-35 days depending on the destination port.
