A letter to the editor critiques a recent published study that focused on the risk of bacterial contamination to human milk fed to premature infants, noting that the study did not distinguish among techniques for reducing such contamination. It is cited that the contamination is derived from the hand-expression of the milk from the mother's breast nipple, and that alternate techniques (e.g., rubber breast pump) can reduce contamination. A response by the authors of the paper is also included.
