Summary(1). A study is reported on the effects of 4 levels of coconut oil, added to a basal diet low in fat, on the secretion in cow's milk of fat and its component fatty acids. (2) A significant reduction in the yield of milk fat occurred at the highest level of supplementation. In terms of individual fatty acids the yields of lauric and myristic acids increased progressively with increased intake, maximum yields being obtained with the 7% level of coconut oil. Conversely the yields of caproic, caprylic, capric and palmitic acids progressively decreased with increased coconut oil intake. The yields of C18 acids were unchanged.

Coconut milk is a thick white liquid extracted from coconut produced from shredded coconut and then squeezed with water. Coconut milk is an ingredient produced from processed old coconut. Coconut milk can be used as food preparations or as herbal beauty ingredients. One of the advantages of coconut milk in the field of beauty is that it is very effective as a dandruff remover. By using old coconut milk as a dandruff remover we can get amazing results with natural ingredients without spending a lot of money. Coconut milk has many contents such as water content, protein and fat which are quite high as well as cow's milk. Coconut milk is rich in vitamins C, B, B-6, thiamine, niacin, folate, a number of minerals (calcium, magnesium, iron and phosphorus). Pure coconut milk only contains 54 percent water, 35 percent fat and 11 percent nonfat solids (approximately 6 percent carbohydrates, less than 4 percent protein and other solids) which are categorized as emulsions of oil in water. Coconut milk is known to be effective in eliminating dandruff, because coconut milk contains coconut oil containing Vitramin E and fatty acids that can eliminate and eradicate dandruff. You do this by using coconut oil as a massage oil to massage the scalp.

Produce and compare soft cheese with potential benefits of human health from Egyptian buffalo's and cow's milk was studied. Eight Egyptian lactating buffalos and cows were fed a total mixed ration supplemented with either 0% oil (CD), 2% flaxseed oil (DFO), 2% soybean oil (DSO), or 2% of their mixture (1:1, DFSO) according to a double 4 x 4 Latin Square design. Milk yield was similar between buffalo's diets but was higher in cows fed a DFO, DSO or DFSO resulting in 11.15, 8.21% or 8.97% increases compared with the control diet, respectively. Milk composition was not significantly affected in both buffalos and cows fed diets. The DFO, DSO or DFSO displayed decreased short-chain fatty acids, especially DSO and DFSO (3.73 and 3.33%, respectively) when compared to CD for buffalo milk (6.32%). The DSO and DFSO were  more effective for increasing unsaturated fatty acids followed by the DFSO in buffalo's milk fat (42.31 and 41.90 %), whereas DFO and DFSO were more effective in cow's milk fat (39.67 and 39.84%), respectively. DFO, DSO or DFSO had no significant effect on the yield, composition and sensory properties of resultant soft cheese compared to the CD for both lactating cows and buffalos. During storage, a diet rich in unsaturated fatty acids enhances protein proteolysis and antioxidant activity of soft cheese during storage compared to the CD especially for soft cheese produced from buffalo's milk.

The two main problems of milk-fat secretion are its origin and its difference in composition from body fats. Whereas ox depot fatty acids consist chiefly of stearic, palmitic and oleic acids, cow’s milk fat contains about 10% of the C 4 to C 12 acids (see Hilditch 1956). The problems of origin and composition are, of course, related, and an answer to one is likely to go far in providing an answer to the other. The subject has been extensively reviewed (Folley 1949, 1956; Popják 1951-52, 1952; Shaw & Lakshmanan 1957) and it is intended here to deal only briefly with material that has been discussed in greater detail by others. Further, this review is confined almost entirely to research on the glyceride fat of ruminant milk. Other lipids are present in negligible proportions (Jack & Smith 1956) and space permits reference to other species only for purposes of comparison.

1. A comparison has been made of the products of lipolysis of the fat in cow's milk by salivary and pancreatic lipases (EC 3.1.1.3) from a preruminant calf.2. It was confirmed that salivary lipase releases short-chain acids preferentially, particularly butyric and caproic acids. This was not only true initially but also as the course of lipolysis progressed. Even after 60 min incubation the longer-chain acids were only released to about one-twentieth of the extent of butyric acid.3. Although pancreatic lipase also initially released proportionately more butyric acid than other fatty acids, within 30 min the longer-chain acids were released to about half the extent of butyric acid.4. Since the over-all extent of lipolysis by salivary lipase was limited by its inability to release long-chain acids, the release of these acids (which comprise two-thirds of the total fatty acids of milk fat) in the calf is likely to be dependent on the subsequent action of pancreatic lipase.5. The release of fatty acids by pancreatic lipase was enhanced by pre-incubating milk fat with salivary lipase.

The dairy industry seems to have convinced the food industry that whey is a miracle product. The list of supposed benefits it gives to food is as long as your arm. Some of the benefits may be real. Whey is the liquid remaining after milk has been curdled and strained. It is a by-product of the manufacture of cheese or casein and has several commercial uses. To produce cheese, rennet or an edible acid is added to heated milk. This makes the milk coagulate or curdle, separating the milk solids (curds) from the liquid whey. Sweet whey is the byproduct of rennet-coagulated cheese and acid whey (also called sour whey) is the byproduct of acid-coagulated cheese. Sweet whey has a pH greater than or equal to 5.6, acid whey has a pH less than or equal to 5.1. Whey is also a great way to add sweetness to a product without having to list sugar as an ingredient as whey contains up to 75% lactose. And it sounds healthy. This study is done to research the examinations for the production of mozzarella cheese from Cow’s milk, after research and analyses of a physical-chemical peculiar feature of whey from coagulum. We have followed the processes from the drying of whey from the coagulum analyzer's physical-chemical peculiar feature. We carried out three experiments. For every experiment, we took three patterns and analyzed the physical-chemical. The calculation was appraised statistically. This paper deals with the research of% of whey fat during the process of milk production from standardized to non-standardized milk. Where% of whey fat should be an economic indicator for standardizing milk for dairy production.
