Abstract
Background. Mare's milk is a promising source for making baby food products. Objective. Our aim was to assess the nutritional value, fatty acid and ascorbic acid content in mare's milk and its products as well as the possibility of their use in baby food. Methods. Mare's milk and its products — drinking milk, yogurt, fermented milk product and curds — are taken as targets of research. The content of proteins, fats, carbohydrates and caloric content is determined in the products. The fatty acid composition is studied by gas chromatography, the content of vitamin C — by high-performance liquid chromatography. When calculating the daily intake of dairy and fermented milk products for children aged 1–11 years, the recommendations of the Union of Pediatricians of Russia as well as the norms of physiological needs were used. Results. It has been found that mare's milk products are energy-restricted. Inclusion of mare's milk products in the diet of children aged 12–23 months will meet the need for omega-6 by 15–34%, for omega-3 by 15–23%, for vitamin C by 39.6–57.3% of the recommended daily dose. For children aged 2–11 years, daily consumption of 200 ml of yogurt based on mare's milk provides a daily dose of omega-6 by 4.3–14.5%, of omega-3 by 6.4–12.0%, of vitamin C by 23.8–31.7% of the recommended daily dose. Conclusion. The study results indicate that it is advisable to include fermented mare's milk products in the diet of children aged 1–11 years.

Summary
Обнаружено, что для продуктов на основе кобыльего молока характерна низкая калорийность. Детям в возрасте 12–23 мес включение в рацион продуктов на основе кобыльего молока позволит удовлетворить потребность в омега-6 на 15–34%, в омега-3 на 15–23%, в витамине С на 39,6–57,3% от рекомендуемой суточной дозы. Для детей в возрасте от 2 до 11 лет ежедневное потребление 200 мл йогурта на основе кобыльего молока обеспечивает суточную дозу в омега-6 на 4,3–14,5%, в омега-3 на 6,4–12,0%, в витамине С на 23,8–31,7% от рекомендуемой. Результаты проведенного исследования свидетельствуют о целесообразности включения кисломолочных продуктов на основе кобыльего молока в рацион питания детей в возрасте от 1 года до 11 лет. С.
