This study was designed to evaluate serum and milk amyloid A (SAA) as an inflammatory indicator in inflammatory diseases. Twenty clinically healthy cows and 100 cows with various inflammatory diseases were selected for this study. Blood samples were collected from the coccygeal vein of both healthy and diseased groups. Milk samples were taken from four quarters of both groups. Milk samples of f...

The goals of this study were to determine L-ascorbic acid concentrations in various milk products, and to evaluate the effect of storage time on L-ascorbic acid in milk. Commercial plain milk samples were obtained from either a raw-food market or a supermarket, in Mae Hia, Mueang District, Chiang Mai Province, Thailand, during July, 2008. The types of milk were separated based on fat percentage...

DESIGN AND SETTING Questionnaires covering nutritional and sensory perceptions of three types of milk. SUBJECTS Three hundred and sixty-one randomly selected shoppers in Melbourne, Australia. RESULTS Generally, res...

Lysozyme activity in buffalo milk in relation to the period of lactation, parity of animal, weather conditions and udder infections was studied. Effect of storage and heat processing of milk on lysozyme activity was determined. Lysozyme activity was higher in buffalo milk than in cow milk. Buffalo colostrum showed lysozyme activity 5 times of that in mature milk. Lysozyme activity in buffalo mi...

The present study was conducted to measure the feasibility of using soy milk as a supplement for the preparation of dahi from buffalo milk. In this experiment, four different types of dahi were prepared by partial replacement of buffalo milk with soy milk named A (control-100% Buffalo Milk), B (75% Buffalo Milk + 25% Soy Milk), C (50% Buffalo Milk +50% Soy Milk) and D (25% Buffalo Milk + 75% So...

to evaluate the effects of physically processed flaxseed [ground flaxseed (gfs) and whole flaxseed(wfs)] as a replacement for extruded soybeans on feed intake, milk production, milk composition, milk fatty acid (fa) composition and blood biochemical parameters, nine primiparus holstein dairy lactating cowsaveraging 495 ± 34.5 kg of body weight (bw) and 70 ± 5 days in milk (dim) were assigned in...

In this study, it was aimed to comparison the physicochemical properties and acceptability of different milk product including full and low fat milk and flavored milk such as chocolate, coffee and bananas milk. According to the result of current research the fat content in milk didn’t affect on the other nutrient component of milk such as protein, calcium and phosphorus also addition of flavori...

BACKGROUND Cow's milk proteins are amongst the most common causes of food allergy in infants, and caseins are probably the main allergens. The existence of a high degree of cross-reactivity between milk caseins from different animals has been reported. We describe a 2-year-old boy who experienced allergic reactions after eating and touching sheep's cheese, but who tolerated cow's milk and cow's...

The aim of this study was to compare the protein and fatty acid fractions of Balkan donkey and human milk in the early lactation stage (40 and 90 day). This study revealed that donkey milk contains αs1-casein (1.38-1.89 g/L) and higher concentration of β-casein (0.1-0.55 g/L) in comparison to human milk. The concentration of α-lactalbumin increased during the lactation phases from 40 to 90 days...
