The study was done to isolate Klebsiella spp., Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli & Pseudomonas spp. from raw milk, processed milk (powdered milk & ultra-high-temperature milk) and dairy products (mango milk, and ice cream). During 3 months’ time span of study, a total of ten samples were gathered where eight of the samples powdered milk (2), ultra-high-temperature milk (2), ice cream (2) & mango milk (2) were gathered from different places of Bangladesh & other 2 samples (raw milk) were collected from a cattle farm & individual households in & around Noakhali city. The samples were gathered under aseptic safety measures and were followed by plating on non-selective media (Nutrient broth) & selective media (Mannitol Salt Agar & Macconkey agar). The presumptive Klebsiella spp., Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli & Pseudomonas spp. isolates were identified by biochemical tests. Analysis of the result discovered that out of a total of 10 samples; raw milk (2), processed milk i.e. powdered milk (2), ultra-high-temperature milk (2) and dairy products i.e. mango milk (2) and ice cream (2) resulted in the isolation of 8 isolates (2.5%) of S. aureus, (12.5%) of Klebsiella spp., (2.5%) of Pseudomonas spp. & (2.5%) of Escherichia coli. Results recommended a probability of potential public health threat of Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella spp., Escherichia coli & Pseudomonas spp. resulting from contamination of milk and dairy products with pathogenic microorganisms is mainly due to unhygienic practices and conditions in the handling, production, and processing.

This study was conducted to develop a selective and sensitive method for the determination of bisphenol A (BPA) levels in milk and dairy products. A method based on solvent extraction with acetonitrile and solid-phase extraction (SPE) was developed for the analysis of BPA in milk, yogurt, cream, butter, pudding, condensed milk, and flavored milk, and a method using two SPE cartridges (OASIS HLB and Florisil cartridge) for skim milk was also developed. The developed methods showed good recovery levels (77 to 102%) together with low detection limits (1 μg/liter for milk, yogurt, pudding, condensed milk, flavored milk, and skim milk and 3 μg/liter for cream and butter). These methods are simple, sensitive, and suitable for the analysis of BPA in milk and dairy products. When 40 milk and dairy products were analyzed by the proposed methods, BPA was not identified in noncanned products, but its levels ranged from 21 to 43 μg/kg in canned products, levels that were 60- to 140-fold lower than the migration limits in the European Union and Japan.

Milk is an emulsion containing fat, protein, carbohydrate, vitamins, minerals and water. Lactose is the main carbohydrate presented in milk and dairy products. This sugar is composed by one unit of glucose and one of galactose. Metabolism of lactose depends on enzyme lactase which hydrolyzes this sugar. In some cases, lactase may be absent or an insufficient quantity in human body. Deficiency in lactase production causes numerous symptoms such as diarrhea; abdominal pain and bloating that characterize lactose intolerance. The aim of this work was to evaluate concentration of lactose in milk and dairy products to determine the effect of the processing and to calculate the quantity of each product which can be consumed without symptoms in lactose intolerant. Results obtained show lactose concentration of 4.42% w/v in Milk; 3.5% w/w in Minas cheese; 9.9%w/v in condensed milk and 4.76%w/v in yogurt. Portion innocous ranged from 60 to 170 mL depending on each product.

The dairy industry is one of the important components of the food industry in Ukraine. Significant dynamic and structural changes in the procurement, processing and foreign trade of milk and dairy products have been observed in recent years. Further prospects for the development of the dairy industry are formed under the influence of a decrease in agricultural harvesting of milk, a decrease in the volume of deep processing of milk (production of butter and cheese), changes in foreign trade. It is important to study the current state of the dairy industry and identify trends in its further development. The tendencies of milk procurement by agricultural enterprises and households of Ukraine are investigated. Over the years milk production in agriculture has been dynamically diminishing, with a shift to entrepreneurial forms of dairy farming. It has been noted that the decrease in milk production volume in recent years has influenced the dynamics of industrial production of dairy products. In particular, in recent years the production of cheese and butter has decreased significantly, and milk production has been characterized by unstable trends. The general characteristics of Ukraine's foreign trade in milk and dairy products are presented. In recent years, the value of the export-to-import ratio has been positive for most dairy products. Over the last year (2018), exports of butter, condensed milk and cream, condensed milk and cream and whey prevailed in Ukraine. At the same time, they imported more cheese and butter, fermented or fermented milk and cream. The main part of the exported dairy products was export of butter and milk and cream condensed, imported mainly cheese. It is established that the main problem of the dairy industry today is the low level of milk production. Therefore, financial and investment processes should be stimulated to build farms and increase livestock production at enterprises to offset losses from reduced milk production by households. At the same time, it is necessary to encourage deep processing of milk, in particular the production of butter (main export product) and cheese (to avoid import dependence).

<p>Abstrak<br />Produk susu bubuk dan susu kental manis merupakan produk turunan susu, yang banyak dikonsumsi khususnya balita. Kementerian Perindustrian berencana memberlakukan wajib SNI 01-2970-2006, Susu bubuk dan SNI 01-2971-1998, Susu kental manis dalam regulasi teknis pada tahun 2013-2014 untuk melindungi masyarakat dari masalah keamanan pangan dan kesehatan. Sedangkan tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisa kesiapan pemberlakuan wajib SNI susu bubuk dan susu kental manis dari aspek ketersediaan standar, perdagangan produk (ekspor-impor), infrastruktur penilaian kesesuaian dan efisiensi produksi produk. Diperoleh hasil bahwa ketersediaan standar masih kurang, industri pengolahan susu baik susu bubuk dan susu kental manis masih besar ketergantungan terhadap bahan baku susu impor (perdagangan masih negatif) dan infrastruktur masih kurang memadai sehingga efisiensi masih rendah. Program pengembangan standar nasional untuk produk susu perlu ditingkatkan dan dilengkapi untuk meningkatkan kualitas produk olahan susu dengan mengadopsi dari standar internasional atau standar nasional negara lain dan harus mempertimbangkan kondisi dan kebutuhan masyarakat di Indonesia. Pengembangan lembaga penilaian kesesuaian perlu disesuaikan dengan arah kebijakan pemerintah diselaraskan dengan daerah pengembangan sentra susu dan industri dalam menunjang penerapan pemberlakuan wajib SNI susu bubuk dan susu kental manis di Indonesia.<br />Kata Kunci: susu bubuk, susu kental manis, Standar Nasional Indonesia (SNI).</p><p><br />Abstract<br />Powder Milk and condensed milk are derivative products, which are widely consume, especially by toddlers. Ministry of industry has plans to impose mandatory SNI 01-2970-2006, Powder Milk and SNI 01-2971-1998, Sweetened condensed milk in Technical Regulations 2013-2014 to protect the public from food safety and health issues. The purpose of this study is to analyze the readiness of implementation of mandatory SNI powder milk and condensed milk from availability of related standards, import-export trade, conformity assessment infrastructure and the efficiency of production. The results obtained indicate that the availability of related standards are deficient, dairy processing industries (for powder milk and sweetened condensed milk) have great dependency on imports of raw milk (negative trading), and the infrastructure is inadequate; as a result the efficiency is low. Development program of national standards for dairy products needs to be improved and equipped to improve the quality of dairy products by adopting international standards or national standards of other countries and should take into consideration the conditions and market needs in Indonesia. Development of conformity assessment bodies need to be adapted to the direction of government policy, is aligned with regional development centers and industrial milk in supporting the implementation of the implementation of mandatory SNI milk powder and SNI sweetened condensed milk in Indonesia.<br />Keywords: milk powder, condensed milk, National Indonesian Standard (SNI).</p>
