data related to holstein dairy cattle from 1987 to 2004 were obtained from animal breeding center of iran to estimate the genetic and phenotypic trends. variance components and genetic parameters of the first lactation records were estimated using restricted maximum likelihood method and aireml algorithm through matvec program. animal breeding values were predicted through multiple-trait animal...

The study was conducted to assess the effect of milk production, parity, stage of lactation, season and individual milk components themselves on milk urea nitrogen (MUN) concentration and other milk components of 3,219 Holstein dairy cows in Korean dairy farms. The MUN concentrations in Korean dairy cows were estimated to 16.68±5.87 mg/dl. Milk yield was negatively correlated with fat and prote...

milk and fat yields in 3x and 4x milking schedule in holstein cows of iran were investigatedusing 374170 milk and fat yield test day records measured on the 1st and 2nd lactions of 54580 dairycattle coming from 205 herds. the records had been collected from 2007 to 2009 by the iraniananimal breeding center (iabc). the results indicated that an increases in the milking frequency from3x to 4x inc...

Consumption of cow's milk in childhood is recommended in many countries. Cow's milk has a content of protein and minerals needed for growth with protein content about three times as high as the content in breast milk. Furthermore, the ratio between whey and casein is very different, 20/80 and 60/40 in cow's milk and human milk, respectively. In infant formula, both the amount and the whey/casei...

whey contains more than half of total solids present in the original milk, which includes 20% of the proteins, most of the lactose, minerals and water soluble vitamins. in this study, selective separation of whey components by aphron flotation (separation of ultrafine particles by micro-bubbles) has been investigated. it has been shown that it is possible to recover valuable components of whey ...

the genetic parameters for milk production and milk fat traits for first to third parities were estimated using single, multi trait and repeatability models. the genetic parameters for test day milk records were also estimated using random regression model. the test day records and 305 day milk records of 17055 cows from 10 herds collected between years 1996-2007 in khorasan razavi province wer...

Epidemiological studies suggest that milk consumption and dietary intake of dairy proteins are inversely related to the risk for hypertension. Also, some intervention studies have shown a blood pressure-lowering effect of milk products and dairy proteins. Milk peptides are formed from milk proteins by enzymatic breakdown by digestive enzymes or by the proteinases formed by lactobacilli during t...

Current research on bioactive molecules in milk has documented health advantages of bovine milk and its components. Milk Phospholipids, selected for this study, represent molecules with great potential benefit in human health and nutrition. In this study we used confocal reflectance and multiphoton microscopy to monitor changes in skin morphology upon skin exposure to ultraviolet light and eval...
