'''Lactoferrin''' (LTF) is found in secretory fluids.  It is a component of the immune system and has antimicrobial activity.  LTF interacts with DNA, RNA, polysaccharides and heparin.  LTF is inhibited by nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) like aspirin.  For detailed discussion of human lactoferrin see [[Human lactoferrin]].
