Hydrolysis of proteins could lessen their inhibiting effect on the poor absorption of cow's milk iron (Fe), which is responsible for the high incidence of Fe deficiency worldwide. When bound to Fe, caseinophosphopeptides (CPP) derived from milk proteins resist luminal digestion, enhance Fe solubility and could improve its bioavailability; brush border enzyme alkaline phosphatase activity could influence iron absorption by releasing free Fe; this study assessed its role in the absorption of CPP-bound Fe. Rat duodenal loops were perfused with Fe gluconate or Fe bound to the CPP of beta casein beta-CN (1-25), with or without the addition of an inhibitor of alkaline phosphatase, Na2WO4. The uptake of Fe-beta-CN (1-25) was greater than Fe gluconate. Na2WO4 enhanced the uptake of Fe-beta-CN (1-25) and not of Fe gluconate. So the release of free, insoluble Fe, by alkaline phosphatase seems to be prevented by providing Fe in the Fe-beta-CN (1-25) complex form. Its good disappearance rate makes beta-CN (1-25)-bound Fe a candidate for food fortification.
