There is a growing interest in milk oligosaccharides (MOs) because of their numerous benefits for newborns’ and long-term health. A large number of MO structures have been identified in mammalian milk. Mostly described in human milk, the oligosaccharide richness, although less broad, has also been reported for a wide range of mammalian species. The structure of MOs is particularly difficult to report as it results from the combination of 5 monosaccharides linked by various glycosidic bonds forming structurally diverse and complex matrices of linear and branched oligosaccharides. Exploring the literature and extracting relevant information on MO diversity within or across species appears promising to elucidate structure-function role of MOs.
