Twenty-five samples of spray dried whole milk powder (WMP) of different brands were procured from five regions of Maharashtra namely Vidarbha, North Maharashtra, Western Maharashtra, Marathwada and Mumbai. These samples were analyzed for the chemical composition, physico-chemical properties and microbiological quality to access their suitability in terms of national and international standards. The moisture, fat and protein content in WMP obtained from different regions varied significantly.Wide variation in the physical properties like scorched particles, wettability, dispersibility and solubility index was observed in WMP. The NPN, true protein content, titratable acidity and lactate content and free fat content of WMP samples were varied significantly. The standard plate count and coliform count of WMP samples were lower than that of the standard prescribed by BIS and PFA. In the present study except few, all the samples meet the requirements of national and international standards.

Twenty five market skim milk powder samples obtained from various regions of Maharashtra were analysed for their chemical composition, physico-chemical properties and microbiological quality to access their suitability in terms of national and international standards. It was observed that the moisture, fat, protein, lactose and ash content of SMP samples obtained from various regions showed significant difference (P less than 0.05). It was also revealed that the scorched particle content, solubility index, dispersibility, wettability properties of samples varied significantly in different regions for different brands. Similarly, the NPN and true protein content in SMP samples of different regions were significantly different from each other. The average free fat content in the samples from Vidarabha was significantly higher than that of the other regions of the state. The titratable acidity and lactate content of various brands of SMP samples were ranged from 0.97-1.08 and 75-550 mg/100 g, respectively. It was observed that three brands out of twenty five samples were found positive for alkali neutralizers. Wide variation was observed in standard plate count and coliform counts of all the SMP samples of various brands collected from five different regions of Maharashtra.

The production and consumption of domestic natural cheese in Japan is increasing year by year. More than ninety percent of domestic natural cheese is produced in Hokkaido region of Japan, while information on its quality and safety related to foodborne pathogens is limited. To assess the microbiological safety of domestic natural cheese, a total of 126 natural cheese samples produced in Hokkaido were collected from December, 2012, to July, 2013. In addition to standard plate count (SPC) and coliform counts, the prevalence study of three pathogens (Listeria monocytogenes, pathogenicEscherichia coli, andSalmonellaspp.) was performed on each sample. Real-time PCR and matrix-assisted laser desorption-ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometer methods were employed for identification of presumptive pathogens. Coliform was detected in 25 samples (19.8%) with a minimum of 25 cfu/g and a maximum of more than 3.0 × 106 cfu/g.Salmonellaspp. andL. monocytogeneswere not isolated from any of the samples. Only one sample (0.80%) showed positive PCR amplification foripaHgene suggesting possible contamination of enteroinvasiveE. coliorShigellain this product. Overall results indicate that natural cheeses produced in Hokkaido region were satisfactory microbiological quality according to existing international standards.

Abstract Milk consumption is important in the diet of all age groups because it provides important nutrients that are essential for humans. Children are the largest consumers of milk, thus, it’s very important that milk is free of toxic compounds that can be harmful for humans. Aim of the study was to determine the physico-chemical characteristics of some samples of milk powder for different stage of baby growing and for some samples of fresh milk: raw cow’s milk, milk trade and UHT type. The following physico-chemical properties: density, pH, acidity, the presence of acetone, enzymes, antiseptics, dry substance, the ash, total fat, saponification and peroxide index, total nitrogen and protein content were determined. Comparing the values of acidity for analyzed samples it can be concluded that the powder milk acidity value is much lower than the fresh milk. The presence of antiseptics and acetone was not identified, and amylase and peroxidase were found only in raw cow's milk. The highest protein content was found for milk powder (27.22%).

The study was conducted to develop frozen yoghurt, flavoured with jackfruit pulp. Sensory data revealed that, the sample incorporated with 15% jackfruit pulp had the best qualities. Protein content of all jackfruit pulp incorporated frozen yoghurts was significantly higher (p 0.05) and their fat content was significantly lower (p 0.05) compared to the control. Significantly higher (p 0.05) overrun was observed in the frozen yoghurt containing 20% of jackfruit pulp compared to the control. Titratable acidity increased and pH decreased in all samples during the storage. Though total plate count of all jackfruit pulp incorporated frozen yoghurts increased upon storage, it was less than that of the control. Escherichia coli, yeast and mould were not detected for a period of 35 days at frozen storage. In conclusion, physicochemical, microbiological, and sensory properties of frozen yoghurt improved significantly by adding jackfruit pulp at rate of 15% (w/w).

The objective of this work was to perform the physical-chemical characterization of different formulations of the pequi pulp with the addition of different concentrations of whole milk, in order to identify promising products for commercial use. Three formulations of pequi pulp with whole milk were prepared: PL1- 90% pequi pulp and 10% milk, PL2 - 70% pequi pulp and 30% milk, PL3 - 50% pequi pulp and 50% milk. The formulations were evaluated for physical and physical-chemical parameters of color, water activity, water content, ash, total soluble solids (SST), pH, total titratable acidity (ATT), SST/ATT ratio, ascorbic acid, proteins, lipids, total, reducing and non-reducing sugars. The data obtained were subjected to analysis of variance (ANOVA) and comparison between means by the Tukey test at 5% probability. Among the three tested formulations, the best results were obtained for PL3, where it presented lower total titratable acidity, water activity, red intensity, yellow intensity and chromaticity, however, higher content of total soluble solids, ratio SST/ATT, ash, lipids, sugars (total, dimmer and non-dimmer), luminosity and tint angle. The inclusion of milk in the pequi pulp changed the physical and physical-chemical characteristics of the pulp, and it can be an alternative to add nutritional value to the fruit and consequently a promising product for the market.

В России наблюдается повышенный интерес к продуктам питания, включающим нетрадиционное сырье. Спрос на продукты с добавкой семян конопли (Cannabis sativa L.) обусловлен их питательной ценностью и низкой аллергенностью. Исследованы химические и физико-химические показатели пшенично-конопляной муки, полученной из помольной смеси зерна яровой пшеницы сорта Радмира и семян конопли сорта Сурская в соотношении соответственно 95 : 5, 92,5 : 7,5 и 90 : 10%. В качестве контрольного образца была пшеничная мука без добавок. Размол помольных пшенично-конопляных смесей различного соотношения и зерна пшеницы проводили на мельницах лабораторного помола (МЛП-4) с нарезными (драные системы) и микрошероховатыми вальцами (размольные системы). Исследование химических и физико-химических свойств образцов пшенично-конопляной и пшеничной муки проводили на инфракрасном анализаторе SpectraStar 2500 XL. Установлено, что добавление семян конопли в помольную смесь существенно снижает выход пшенично-конопляной муки по сравнению с выходом пшеничной муки (при добавке 5–7,5% семян конопли выход снижается на 4,3–4,4%, а при добавке 10% семян конопли – на 10,6%), однако повышается содержание жира и белка во всех потоках пшенично-конопляной муки, полученной как с драных, так и с размольных систем. По сравнению с содержанием жира и белка в муке из зерна пшеницы, составившим 1,12 и 11,57% соответственно, при добавлении 5% семян конопли в помольную пшенично-конопляную зерновую смесь средневзвешенное содержание жира в пшенично-конопляной муке составило 3,76%, а содержание белка – 12,74%, при добавлении 7,5% конопли в помольную смесь средневзвешенное содержание жира в пшенично-конопляной муке составило 4,35%, а белка – 12,7%, при добавлении 10% конопли в помольную смесь средневзвешенное содержание жира в пшенично-конопляной муке составило 4,97%, а содержание белка – 12,4%. Повышение содержания жира и белка в пшенично-конопляной муке будет способствовать повышению пищевой ценности хлебобулочного изделия из нее. Increased interest in food products, including non-traditional raw materials, is observe among the population of Russia. The demand for products with the addition of hemp seeds (Cannabis sativa L.) is due to their nutritional value and low allergenicity. Chemical and physico-chemical parameters of wheat-hemp flour obtained from a grind mixture of Radmira spring wheat grain and Surskaya hemp seeds in the ratio: 95 : 5, 92,5 : 7,5 and 90 : 10%, respectively, were investigated. Wheat flour without additives was use as a control sample. Grinding of grind wheat-hemp mixtures of various ratios and wheat grains was carried out in laboratory grind mills with rifled (torn systems) and micro-roughened rollers (grinding systems). The study of chemical and physico-chemical properties of wheat-hemp and wheat flour samples was carried out on the SpectraStar 2500 XL infrared analyzer. It was found that the addition of hemp seeds to the grind mixture significantly reduces the yield of wheat-hemp flour compared with the yield of wheat flour (with the addition of 5–7,5% of hemp seeds, the yield decreases by 4,3–4.4%, and with the addition of 10% of hemp seeds – by 10,6%), however increases the fat and protein content in all streams of wheat-hemp flour obtained from both torn and grinding systems. Compared with the fat and protein content in wheat flour, which amounted to 1,12 and 11,57% respectively, when adding 5% hemp to the wheat-hemp grain mixture, the weighted average fat content in wheat-hemp flour was 3,76%, and the protein content was 12,74%, when adding 7,5% hemp to the grind mixture, the weighted average fat content in wheat-hemp flour was 4,35%, and protein – 12,7%, and when adding 10% the weighted average fat content in wheat-hemp flour in the grind mixture was 4,97%, and the protein content was 12,4%. An increase in the fat and protein content in wheat and hemp flour will contribute to an increase in the nutritional value of a bakery product made from it.

The present investigation was carried out to evaluate the feasibility of fortification of soymilk with standardized milk for the production of fortified nutritive milk formulation. The functional properties of cattle milk can be enhanced by blending of soy milk. The soymilk was obtained by using standard procedure by grinding soaked seeds of soybean with hot water (bean to water ratio, 1: 4 w/v). In the present study three formulations of soy and standardized milk were prepared as follows T<sub>1</sub> (100% soymilk), T<sub>2</sub> (50% soymilk: 50% standardized milk), T<sub>3</sub> (60% soymilk: 40% standardized milk), and T<sub>4</sub> (70% soymilk: 30% standardized milk) and Control as T<sub>0</sub> (standardized milk). The changes in physico-chemical, sensory and rheological properties were recorded. The results revealed that overall organoleptic acceptability scores of formulated milks formulations were 6.9, 8.06, 7.65, 7.04 and 8.49 for the formulation T<sub>1</sub>, T<sub>2</sub>, T<sub>3</sub>, T<sub>4</sub> and T<sub>0</sub>, respectively. Fat, total solids, titratable acidity, pH, ash and solid non fat content were decreased with increasing soymilk proportion, while moisture and protein content were increased. The blending of different ratio of soymilk with standardized milk had significant affect on colour attributes (L*, a* and b*). Yellowness and greenness increased while lightness decreased as the proportion of soymilk increased.

A total of 338 water samples were collected at 20 stations from three geographically shellfish-growing areas in Chesapeake Bay from May to September 1989. Samples were examined for standard plate count, total coliforms, fecal coliforms, Escherichia coli and coliphages. Salinity, dissolved oxygen and temperature varied slightly with the depth, season, and geographic area of water samples. The geometric means of standard plate count for the three areas were 135, 355 and 275/ml, respectively. The range of means of fecal coliform for these areas was from &lt;3 to 93/100 mi. Escherichia coli counts were also low with a range of &lt;3 to 93/100 mi and a mean of &lt; 3/100 mi. The growing water area adjacent to cropland was found to have higher bacterial counts than those of the other two areas. Levels of male-specific phages were very low. Results indicate that shellfish-growing waters in all three areas were of satisfactory bacteriological quality.

During a 5-month period, 200 raw milk samples were collected from two Louisiana milk plants. Standard Plate Count (SPC), Psychrotrophic Bacteria Count (PBC), and Proteolytic Count (PC) of each sample were initially determined, then monitored daily during a 5-d storage period at 2.2°C. As hypothesized, all bacterial counts increased during the storage period. The magnitude of the increase in bacterial numbers during storage was further investigated by dividing the milk samples into bacteriologically acceptable and unacceptable groups based on SPC or Preliminary Incubation (PI) count. An SPC of 1.0 × 105/ml and PI counts of 1.0 × 105/ml, 1.5 × 105/ml, 2.3 × 105/ml, and 3.0 × 105/ml were used to repeatedly dichotomize the 200 raw milk samples into two groups. Median SPC, PBC, and PC for each acceptable and unacceptable group were then calculated. Dichotomization based on PI counts yielded acceptable sample groups having consistently lower bacterial counts during storage than did the acceptable sample group, which resulted from the dichotomization based on a SPC of 1.0 × 105/ml. The results of this study indicated that the PI count is of considerable value for raw milk quality control.

Abstract Objectives Malnutrition in older adults reduces quality of life and is increasing in prevalence in many countries. Fortified milk (milk powder added to whole milk), typically forms part of guidelines globally for adults at risk of malnutrition. Protein-enriched fresh milk (PEM) may be a simpler option as it is ready to use. This study aims to investigate the availability and nutritional content of fortified milk and PEM. Methods The 7 largest supermarket chains (by UK market share) were surveyed in-store and online in a large city over 2 weeks in December 2019. Two were discount retailers and 3 did not offer online shopping. For each chain, a large, mid-size and convenience store type were randomly selected, if present within the city. In total 15 stores were visited (5 large, 7 mid-size and 3 convenience). Price and nutritional information were recorded on a pro forma for all milk powders and PEMs in-store and online. The energy & protein content of a 200 ml portion of fortified milk (made as per guidelines with milk powders found) and cost/g of protein was considered and compared with PEM and standard whole milk. Results Six brands of skimmed milk powder (SMP), 1 brand of whole milk powder (WMP) and 3 brands of PEM were found. SMP was the most available (5 large & 5 mid-sized stores), followed by PEM (2 large and 1 mid-sized store), whilst WMP was only found online. The 3 convenience stores and 2 discount retailers did not stock any milk powders or PEM. Energy in 200 ml portions ranged from 90 – 224 kcals and protein from 8.0 – 14.2 g. Fortified milk made with SMP had the highest protein content (Mdn = 13.8 g, IQR = 13.5 – 14.2 g), double that of standard whole milk. Fortified milk made with WMP had the highest energy content (224 kcals) but less protein than fortified milk made with SMP (12.0 g). PEM had the lowest energy (Mdn = 96 kcals, IQR = 90 – 98 kcals) and lowest protein content (Mdn = 9.4 g, IQR = 8.0 – 10.0 g). Cost/g of protein was highest for fortified milk made with WMP (Mdn = 2.5p, IQR = 2.3 – 2.7p), followed by PEM (Mdn = 2.0p, IQR = 1.9 – 2.5p) and lowest for fortified milk made with SMP (Mdn = 1.8p, IQR = 1.8 – 2.2p). Conclusions Based on nutritional content, availability and price, the preferred option found was fortified milk made with SMP; enriched fresh milks did not compare favourably for any of these criteria. Convenience and discount stores had poor availability of the products surveyed. Funding Sources Self-funded.
