Chemical composition and microbial quality of cow milk in urban and peri urban area of Dangila town, Western Amhara Region, Ethiopia

The chemical compositions of both the locations are normal and meet the international standard, however, the way milk produced, stored, transported and sold in the market needs hygienic practices all over especially in the developing countries. such studies are welcomed at this end.

For a developing country like Ethopia, it is a good learning study for postgraduates. It adds awareness about the food safety aspects of common food items used on daily basis. However, microbial / bacterial contamination due to unsanitary practices do need consideration but the chemical aspects with milk produced in a nature's machine (cow) may not be relevant for food safety or nutrition aspects. Only the fat component is relevant, of course. It is just a view.

The findings are not different while comparing the results from other third world countries where all the factors seem almost the same.

This is a good information as the base data for improving the quality of milk at the future, but also to seek the technology means adapted to such condition, in order to give them the opportunity getting some money.
