To examine whether total fat intake is actually lower in reduced-fat (low-fat and skim) milk drinkers and whether reduced-fat-milk drinkers compensate for energy intake we compared the intakes of foods, energy, and energy-yielding nutrients in reduced-fat-milk drinkers and whole milk drinkers by using the US Department of Agriculture's 1989-1991 nationwide food intake database, the Continuing S...

background and objectives: the effect of the different proteins and polysaccharides on the characteristics of low-fat cheese has been a topic of recent study. the release of aromatic compounds from the cheese is affected by the addition of texture improvers. the present study investigated the addition of polysaccharides and proteins on the hardness, microstructure and ester release of low-fat b...

the milk and milk fat production records of 28 holstein herds in khorasan razavi province were analyzed in this study. the records were based on 305 days of milking and were from the first to third milking periods and two times milking per day. the fixed effects of herd-year-season and age of dam at parturition as covariate were fitted in the models of analyses. the (co)variance components were...

An experiment was conducted in early lactating buffaloes for the period of 3 months in Jadakheria and Polisimal village of LimkhedaTaluka in Dahod district of Gujarat to assess the effect of supplementation of bypass fat on milk production, composition, body weight change and economic efficiency. Forty buffaloes in their 2nd and 3rd lactation were equally divided in completely randomized design...

introduction milk solid no-fat is economically very important in cheese industry. compared to the other kinds of milk, ewe’s milk contains higher amount of milk solids no-fat. milk solids no-fat (msnf) contains lactose, caseins, whey proteins, and minerals. the use of test day records in random regression method has several benefits including flexibility to account for the environmental and gen...

in this research, 272977 test day records collected from 659 herds during years 2001 to 2011 by the iranian animal breeding center were used. in the first section the ability of different models to predict daily milk yield from alternative milk recording was tested. the result showed that a complex model including noon milking time plus the effect of lactation curve of ali and schaeffer functio...

genetic parameters and trends for milk and fat yields as well as for fat percentage were estimated from 35,438 milk production records (305d, 2x) of 17,971 holstein dairy cattle in 133 herds during the period of 1990-2003 in khorasan province. variance components were estimated using restricted maximum likelihood statistical method applying univariate and repeatability animal models. for the un...

Bovine fat is dispersed in raw milk as natural milk fat globules, with an average diameter of 4 microm, which are enveloped in a biological membrane, the milk fat globule membrane (MFGM). However, dairy processes modify the supramolecular structure and the surface composition of milk fat. Thus, milk fat is present in many dairy products under various forms. In this study, we focused on the fact...

Adulteration of milk with other additives resembling in physico-chemical properties can be done. Vegetable oils, hydrogenated fats, animal body fats and their blends have been reported as adulterants in milk and milk fat products. The scientists at Gujarat Agriculture University, Anand worked on detection of vegetable oils in milk and milk fat by a rapid method. The elevation of butyrorefractom...

in this research, in order to describe milk production traits lactation mahabadi goat breed, seven statistical functions were fitted using 1665 milk production traits records and 833 body weight records. the milk production traits were milk yield, fat percent, fat yield, protein percent, protein yield, lactose percent and snf percent. these records have been recorded on 123 goats during years o...
