Abstract

Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) are mainly organic acids with carbon atom number of 2 to 6, which play an important role in physiological functions and physiological diseases. In this article, the sources, composition, physiological function and detection technology of SCFAs in milk were reviewed, and to provide scientific reference for further exploring the existence and detection methods of SCFAs in milk.
