Comparing the Activity and Thermal Inactivation Behavior of Lactoperoxidase in Iranian Cow and Buffalo Milk and Whey

Background: Lactoperoxidase (LPO) is one of the most heat-stable enzymes in milk and its inactivation has been proposed for monitoring thermal processes. The aim of this study was to provide information on activity and thermal inactivation behavior of LPO in Iranian cow and buffalo milk and whey. Methods: Sixty cow and buffalo milk samples were collected. The LPO activity was measured using ...

Minerals and Lactic Acid Contents in Buffalo Milk Cheddar Cheese; a Comparison with Cow

The aim of the study was to compare the minerals and lactic acid profile of Cheddar cheese prepared from cow and buffalo milk. Milks standardized at 4% fat level were used to prepare Cheddar cheese. The cheese was prepared and stored for 120 days ripening at 4°C. Chemical composition and minerals contents were determined at one month intervals during ripening. Lactic acid concentration was esti...

Electrophoretic Characterization of Casein of Refrigerated Cow and Buffalo Milk Preserved with Banana Pseudostem Juice

Cow milk, a highly nutritious food item, is amenable to quality degradation due to lipolysis and proteolysis, as a sequel to the growth of spoilage microorganisms, particularly under ambient condition in tropical countries, with consequential loss of aesthetic appeal and product output. Prescription antibiotics used for milk preservation have many undesirable side effects on the health of consu...
