Scientists are endeavouring to combine knowledge of the composition of milk with knowledge of the natural variation in the cow's inherited traits. The aim is to be able to select cows on the basis of specific milk qualities. The future will probably not give us milkshakes or yoghurt straight from the udder. And yet - perhaps a new Danish-Swedish research project that will be launched at the Fa...
The article has covered an important area in dairy science. Milk compoistion has been our area of interest and we have initiated several studies investigating the role of breeds, body condition score, nutritional status, pregnancy, hormonal levels and blood metabolites, on milk composition. One of our study has suggested that milk composition from dairy buffaloes changes with the advancing pregnancy making it suitable, for various types of human consumers.
This article has provided number of thoughts where scientists will work to identify relation of milk and milk quality. I think this sort of research will explore scientific information for the researchers as well as for the society.
