A large share of Ethiopia’s milk production comes from its rural areas. However, this does not undergo further processing into dairy products on a scale due to lack conventional energy sources such as electricity and gas. Hence, the country is utilizing resources maximum possible. In study, possible use solar for pasteurization process investigated by using flat plate collector (FPSC) with with...

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...

Relevance. Heat treatment of milk is carried out at different temperatures on equipment. When raw materials are cooled, the vital activity microorganisms that cause spoilage slows down and shelf life fresh increases. Heating intensifies many technological operations. Pasteurization dairy products designed to suppress in vegetative form. Sterilization ensures destruction not only vegetative, but...

Assessment of milk production is of utmost relevance for pediatricians and scientists interested in early life nutrition. The weight-suckle-weight (WSW) method, which consists of weighing babies before and after they suckle their mother, uses the difference in body weight as an estimate of milk intake. However, this is prone to many sources of error. In the current study, we used for the first ...

Two types of bovine milk; processed milk (PM). and unprocessed (UM). each replicated five (5). times were tested for bacterial plate count (BPC). microbial species (MS). Five replicates randomly assigned testing in a Time Series Experimental Design (TSED). at the Samora Machel School Veterinary Medicine University Zambia. The two samples quality load (ML). (PM UM). did not differ significantly ...
