title: A simple method to improve the energy value of bank human milk.
abstract: Drip milk can be collected in large amounts, hence its potential value for human milk banks. This advantage is however offset by its low energy value. For those milk banks which depend mostly on drip milk, the energy value of its donor milk can be improved to a more acceptable level, and total volumes of donations increased, by encouraging mothers to combine collections of both drip and expressed milk.
