The operation of a milk bank involves several steps to ensure the safety and quality of the donated milk:
Collection: Donors are screened through medical history questionnaires and blood tests to ensure they are healthy and free from transmissible diseases. Screening: Donated milk is tested for bacterial contamination and other safety parameters. Processing: Milk is pasteurized to eliminate any potential pathogens while retaining most of the beneficial properties of human milk. Distribution: Pasteurized milk is dispensed to hospitals and families in need, often prioritized for infants with medical conditions.
